Wow, just wow! The new Quest steps introduced for earning armour are near impossible!
At first I thought it was a good idea, after an hour or so the 1st quest was done and I claimed my boots. Another hour or so and I claimed my gauntlets. Five hours later yes FIVE hours later I am less than 10% complete on step three.
By my calculations that means it should take me 50 hours to complete this part of the quest! Oh well, its a good job crucible quests (like pinnacle weapon quests) complete account wide so once you unlock them on one character they unlock on all of them. WAIT, WHAT? The Iron Banner quests are unique to each character!!! So I have to do this THREE chuffin times???
Out of curiosity, anyone know what steps four & five are? Not sure I can be bothered to find out myself!!
Guess I am never going to have the time to unlock this gear so really, what is the chuffin point of Iron Banner? ANSWER - THERE IS NO CHUFFIN POINT!!!
PLEASE UPVOTE IF YOU AGREE
-
For whatever reason I am only getting 2% for every match I play. Wether I win or lose. It’s very frustrating.
-
I'm at 95% on step three and I've just been playing IB like normal. D2 is grindy. Nothing new.

What the heck is Bungie thinking. Everyone who thought things were going to get better as Activision walked out the door was kidding theirselves. Does no one remember Bungie being kicked off Halo? You know, the giant flagship that use to carry Bungies name? It’s now owned by 343. Remember D1 and it’s glory? That was Activision over the shouldering on Bungie. Now that they left because they can’t take the massive screw up and ideas of some crazy people: “let’s make pinnacle weapons for the people that commit felonies to get these things” The truth is Bungie is just a failure, period. The moment Activision left they changed the EVERVERSE store. Yes, great job. What’s Bungies next big movement. Could it be... you know, MAYBE fix there servers? Maybe they could even make it public that taking others accounts and charging other players isn’t okay? Maybe even you know, fix what’s broken for once. No let me introduce to you Bungies next big step: MORE MICROTRANSACTIONS ! We are fixing up the Eververse store. Let’s add a Iron Banner quest that’s timegated again! Let’s add pinnacle weapons that allow DDoS to reign supreme Let’s break Lord of Wolves and than do nothing about it Let’s continue to add Quests that anyone with a job, life and children can not and never will be able to complete (because you remove it from the game, thanks appreciate that) Let’s continue to only care about the streamers and not about anyone that actually wants to complete some of these ridiculous quests. Let’s allow a vast variety of websites use your player information to log into your account and account recover for the stuff you can’t get because of -previously mentioned Quests- so you now charge players $100-$1200 for things like 5500 Glory Not Forgotten Mida Multitool Catalyst MountainTop Luna’s Howl Wendigo Revoker (Wizened Rebuke) Gone because you ripped it away with the most stupid Triumph expectations Whoever is allowing these stupid decisions to be put in the game NEEDS to be fired Whoever is making these stupid quests and feels that “this is what the players want, needs to be fired Whoever thinks that players with full time jobs have a week to run this new Iron Banner quest through 3 characters when it takes almost 3 days for 1 part... Needs to be fired And whoever thinks that the Eververse Store is more important than working on Servers, Bugs, Patches, Hotfixes and so on, NEEDS to be fired. You’re like children who’s parents left you the house for the weekend and you are just TRASHING IT Stop, stop what you’re doing, beg Activision that you’ll actually listen, actually give a damn about the players and show YOU can change and let us have a good game back. All these changes and add one are for one thing Streamers No one has the time for half the things if not 3-4 of your product is not for anyone else but the streamers. You make ridiculous expectations of the average player and make stipulations that can’t be held up unless we go to these various websites, punch in our credit card information, and watch someone ELSE get all of our loot, while we are off at work you know.... making the money that your taking from us already, and that we will have to use to obtain anything else properly in this game. It’s become Toxic This isn’t a game for fun anymore. I have to work myself up to even turn the game on because it’s so, dead. The enjoyment is ripped from it when you have to put 9 days into grenade kills for even the stupidest things. How about the fact that every Titan and their mother is running One Eye Mask- Lord of Wolves. I mean why not, it’s broken and endorsed by Bungie to keep exploiting this game Why not charge the community money for their own stuff? Why not make this game unenjoyable for anyone who isn’t sadistic? Why should the new players even want to pick this horrible game up and even WANT to invest a little bit of time into a game that’s not for them? It’s not for new players, it’s not for the community. It sure as hell isnt for “giving the players what they want” because we have all been screaming for some stability and after 6 years now? Maybe 7ish, you still can’t even do that. In fact, I made a brand new account, went into crucible to see how it will be for “new players” 6 stack Luna’s - Not Forgotten. Yes, that’s really going to give that new player that’s playing the “Destiny New Light” the motivation and want to keep playing this game when they are being spawn camped with shotguns/snipers. Or being mowed down by a broken Lord of Wolves that (even in known issues- isn’t being fixed) So again: HOW IS BUNGIE BETTER NOW THAT ACTIVISION IS GONE!

Don't tell me what to do.

Изменено (BraddyBo): 6/22/2019 7:14:50 AMPlay iron banner NOW! ALL drops are weapons if you dont progress the quest. Btw, the quest is meant to last all season.
-
Isn’t playing this game already a waste of time
-
man, i soloed the whole quest in a day; maybe quit the drama? is it a grind? yes does it take forever?yes are the rewards worth it? it depends on what your after; i really wanted my warlock helmet back is it impossible? please
-
So by your calculations everyone would have to be as bad as you are? Think about that.
-
Instead of making it fun and interesting they just make it damn near impossible because that's all they know
-
It is a grindy-ass Banner. It’s not even much fun going against 3-6 shit stacks as is, without this massive “quest.”
-
If you don't enjoy pvp or the quest is too difficult for you then you have 2 good options: get better at pvp or don't play pvp. You've picked the 3rd option which is to complain about something not even designed for you. A bad pvp player is always going to respond negatively to lengthy pvp quest content. This quest is perfect for hardcore, dedicated pvp players, which you clearly are not, and that's OK... Just don't complain away what little pvp quest content we get becuase you don't want to complete it.
-
The issue is that it requires 100 melee kills. Grenades weren't an issue because you could get assists but melee you can't. All I see is fusion rifles and lord of wolves. Can't get close enough to tag and melee. Seems that knife kills dont count but maybe I'm seeing things.
-
I like how you guys complain about stuff wasting your time, but just accept how cores in infusion does the same thing. At least be consistent.
-
Grinding for the highest dps grenade launcher in the game. Also I don’t really care I enjoy iron banner anyways
-
There is a point. Swarm of the Raven with Spike Grenades is the point.
-
You never played D1 then I take it.
-
[spoiler]the best thing you can get from Iron banner is a grenade launcher with spike rounds for pve. I stopped caring about the quest day 1. It’s been to be done from now till September. You got plenty of time.[/spoiler]
-
Jonbuy You make some valid points and i agree that eververse must be removed from this game but, Whether we wanted it or not, we've stepped into a war with the Cabal on Mars. So let's get to taking out their command, one by one. Valus Ta'aurc. From what I can gather, he commands the Siege Dancers from an Imperial Land Tank just outside of Rubicon. He's well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out, and break their grip on Freehold

Изменено (Lee C Miller): 6/20/2019 9:46:28 PMAgreed!’ I generally only play PvP when IB hits for a week and I’ve given PvP in general a hard pass this season as I’ve got absolutely no interest in grinding for enhanced armour that I can easily get every week in the dreaming city and elsewhere.
-
Haven't played the game in a few weeks now and it's been nice. Could care less about Iron banner. They keep making it worse and worse with every new season. I've been to busy playing borderlands handsome jack collection. Plus warframe and path of exile keeps pumping out new content like crazy.
-
All you've done with the quest is dilute your loot pool with gauntlets and leg armour instead of only weapons! lol Don't do the quest, get only weapons. Perfect...
-
It’s designed to take all season. It’s been 3 days.
-
Don't tell me how to waste my time
-
Step 3 is a bit of a pain, but the whole quest only takes around 15 hrs to complete. You need to pick an exotic that either boosts grenade damage, increases recharge rate, or gives a second grenade. Then you need to not be willy nilly when you throw a grenade. If at all possible wait until there is a group of opponents all grouped up, and taking damage. Then throw it into them. Using the Verity Warlock helmet, paired with Jotuun, was averaging 7 to 10% progression per match. This quest was designed to change up the meta. And it works well for that, imo.

Not impossible just annoying and stupid.
