Iron banner loot cycle is terrible

It shouldn’t take 8hrs plus for a single helmet drop. Even besides that why do games give non-banner loot? And not even at a useable power level. 30 blast zone rocket launchers at 1577 does me zero good. And if the only way to unlock the ability to re-buy loot from the vendor, then added to game completion loot pools, it should be removed from the iron banner engram loot pool so then you can’t get stuck in the loot lock with repeat drops. Why was the bounty system that would grant you a full set of armor by the end of the quest line removed? Armor is just aesthetics and i shouldn’t have to grind so hard for it in a game mode that wasn’t grindy before, unlike weapons that have actual affects on gameplay, I wouldn’t mind the god roll chase, as it gives me a big leg up in gameplay. And with low level drops, I can’t even make the game mode easier nor rewarded for my time as I can’t use the drops to be fit from power level.

    • I stopped playing it a few seasons ago. Nobody actually puts their money where their mouth is.. they just keep grinding away and crying.

      • End of Game drops are terrible - a guaranteed rocked launcher you will never use. Seems a slightly better chance of getting armor from the iron banner engrams.

      • I just posted basically the same thing! Drop rates are horrible! I’ve been playing 6+ hours a day and still haven’t dropped a helm on 2 of my characters. Why in the hell do we get crucible drops in IB anyway?! IB engrams take forever to get and decrypt to something I already have that’s a pain. The thing I hate is that “if” bungie see these complaints they’ll implement them next IB when we don’t need them anymore.

      • This is true of all modes. We should only be getting loot specific to that mode. Way too many world drops crowd the loot we want which I know is intended but still shitty.

      • I didn't get my cloak till I hit mythic 2, still waiting for the boots. Had like a billion blowouts in the grind so far. Crucible drops shouldn't be in banner

      • Totally agree. 3 days so far and no helmet has dropped. And don’t get me started with pinnacles. It’s been two weeks and I still haven’t been dropped arms or chest smh..

      • It's really bad. 18+ hours and cannot get the cloak or arms to drop on my hunter, but you better believe I have enough blowouts to solo a GM.
