I love ToO because of the smaller teams and the tighter communication.
Iron Banner has always been something I forced myself through, just to get the gear rewards. And it seems like every month, Iron Banner lag gets worse and worse. Last month, at least twice a day, I and everyone in my friend list, simultaneously experienced Xbox live downage for 10 minutes at a time.
With TTK releasing soon, and all pre-TTK legendary gear being stuck at Year One levels, I'm not even seeing a point to playing Iron Banner this time around. I don't see the worth in subjecting myself to the lagfest that Iron Banner has slowly turned into.
Do any of you plan to still play? Why? Do you think there's a chance they might make this next IB's gear be TTK gear?
Edit: I decided I'm still gonna play for the rewards because Bungie can never make up their mind about these things. There's gonna be enough vault space to justify holding on to gear with hopes that they may change their minds.

Well I'm going to it for the grind, even though I am fully aware that it's going to be useless. I just want to work hard for the last time, I want the hunter cloak

5 RepliesThey need to make Iron Banner gear worth getting. The fact that some Iron Banner gear have perks that are completely useless in PvP is on another level of stupid.

1 ReplyShaders, cloaks/marks/bands And, perhaps, IB gear will be weighted more when calculating your year 2 #s. At the very least it can help you fill up your armory. But really competition is as good a reason as any.
