So with the close to iron banner...

I played iron banner on all three characters with the same set of weapons. (the A-D, party crasher, and dragon's breath.) I found this. Warlock: The warlock was pretty easy to get kills with and wasn't too much of a pain to use. I found sunsinger to be the most effective of the classes with a flame sheild and firebolt. I tried out void walker and it was "meh" as it didn't have anything super OP but wasn't a pain to use. By far it was most handy for shot gunning becuase of the warlock skating it provides. (super fun BTW) I tried the storm caller and again, not super overwhelming as it did not have the ability to skate and the special grenade didn't kill as much as I would have liked but it had a nice long range melee and the super was fairly nice. (though I got sniped a lot) Titan: Roughly the same experience as the warlock. Tried sunbreaker and did pretty well using fusion grenades and melting point. The super wasn't the best (more sniping) but I still shut down a few other supers and melted a good portion of the other team. Tried the defender and that was a disappointment as every time I popped a bubble someone ran along and popped it. I won a few fights in my little arena but eventually got over-ran. grenades didn't kill much and the melee didn't help much. Tried the striker and had a relatively good experience. sometimes I had shoulder charge and other times I had juggernaut. both were very handy. shut down a lot of supers with FoH and saved my heavy once or twice. overall, the striker experience was probably the better of the three. Hunter: This was the bane of my existence. Not gonna lie. Gunslinger was maybe to most effective but the fact that a precision knife throw didn't kill anyone with the burning effect seemed obnoxious. the scatter grenade never kills anybody so I had to switch to a trip mine which had a 50-50 chance to kill someone. the super was really nice but I swear someone nerfed the old AA because it has never been so hard to hit a shot before. (maybe I'm just really slow) Tried the nightstalker and found it underwhelming as the wombo combo failed me numerous times and the wall grenade was never consistent. The super was all bad but the best I could do was just annoy the other team as I'd fire a shot then drop dead, and my team always hesitated to go in. quiver helped a bit but was again, underwhelming. The blade dancer was the literal worst. the blink strike did next to nothing helpful (as it isn't a one hit unless you're behind someone) the grenade normally got a kill but normally just scared everyone off. the super was useless unless I hid behind a corner and cut people down as they turned the corner, and constantly got shut down by just about every gun in the book. How I would rate the classes for this IB? sunsinger - 4/5 voidwalker - 3/5 Stormcaller - 3/5 Striker - 4/5 Sunbreaker - 3/5 Defender - 2/5 gunslinger - 3/5 nightstalker - 3/5 blade dancer - 1/5 Edit: some people believe I wasn't using these classes right. I used everything videos and the forums themselves told me to use so I assume I was using things right. Edit: many replies, little time. Edit: BTW, this is trending.

  • I beg to differ. I was killed by three throwing knives, with full health.

      • Young ackmara spine, spelt wrong I know, but that's perfect in IB. Oh look a doorway someone may run through in next minute.... Boom random kill possible postmortem. And with the spine tripmines everywhere, and I mean everywhere

            • This is close to how you should rate the classes for almost all gamemodes. As long as the other team isn't thumbless of course

            • Young ahamkara spine and trip mines. Stick them in high traffic areas. Get kills from grenades you forget you even tossed out. So hilarious.

              • Oh man. My experience was the opposite with BD. I tried it out again after using the Nightstalker almost exclusively for a while and my KD during that stretch shot up a whole lot. Regularly getting 2+ KDs. Blink makes the super work, you can't just run at people. I always got at least two or three kills when I popped it near a group unless one of them had a Titan smash handy. But the most important thing to me was QuickDraw. Being able to change weapons so quickly helped me win dozens of firefights that I definitely would have lost if I were any other subclass. BD has an extremely strong neutral game.

                  • Blade dancer and nightstalker need massive buffs... Nightstalker super should drain all super energy.. You could hunt people with the new scopes ;) And bladedancer needs an armor buff... Seriously like wtf....

                      All it was, was skating titans with near max agility maining shotguns and shoulder charge and if they didnt get close enough, spamming lightning grenades while theyll charge in with midas clicking away after you got hit by the huge aoe. While i was practicing to get good with imago loop and a fusion rifle or dregs potato and throwing knives. Very satisfying knowing you wreck the crutch users from time to time.

                      • I main a Sunsinger, but I found I did best with my Titan this IB. I alternated between defender and striker, had some good games and some bad.

                          • This is all based on personal preference. Defender titans can be one of the most annoying classes to come against in pvp if it is used correctly. It's all about being good at throwing suppression grenades, picking your loadout and the subclass nodes to work will together. Shotguns with blessing of light and those exotic gauntlets that just slipped my mind which give force barrier for shotgun kills. The same can be said for Bladedancer. Bladedancer really is good if you can use invis in pvp to get in and out of areas by breaking line of sight and hiding off the radar before using backstab and grenades up close. Really the best loadouts for Bladedancers use Last word/sniper(or a good fusion rifle) or using a pulse rifle/scout/hand cannon with a shotgun or fusion rifle for being up close and personal. The Flux grenade can be really good in cqc.

                            • See, I love bladedancer. I don't understand why everyone hates it. I'm average at best in pvp but can often get at least 3 kills with it.

                                  lol you obviously don't know how to use razors edge if you really ranked ArcBlade 1/5. If you watch a streamer, or actually knew how to use that class for its neutral as intended, you'll realize the beauty of that class. All it needs is a hit detection buff, otherwise I still find myself getting 3-4 kills with the super itself. Learn razors edge

                                    • Pro tip with hunters. I know you weren't using a hand cannon, but if you were. You can shoot them once (does not matter where) and then headshot them with a throwing knife and they die

                                      • Try defender with universal remote, up for anything, and speck for force barrier. Use the super to only lockdown positions. (Don't wait inside with a shotgun)

                                      • Usually in IB i average about ten to fifteen Stick Around medals. Tripmines i just throw on high traffic areas and leave. They all seem to serve me well.
