Where Has the Iron Banner XP Gone
What happened? Shaders, cloaks, and emblems from the Iron Lords each gave a 10% boost to IB rep gains for a total of 30% increased gains while having all three equipped. This has been the way in year one. Year two, text was added to each IB shader, class item, and emblem that specifically mentions the increased reputation gain. Then, those who didn't already know could read and decide to dress up not just for funsies, but because participating this way has a reward. Previously, we would buy for one mote of light another rep booster from Saladin himself made increasingly powerful each subsequent day the IB was available. Eventually, players recieved this buff without even having to purchase it. Lady Felwinter does not sell this buff and there is no notification we have recieved it. This time, WHERE ARE THE REP GAINS? Not shaders, nor cloaks, nor relevant IB emblems boast this rep gain anymore. Why? Has it truly been taken away or do we have to do our own online research like in year one? Also, why did they go away? What happened, Bungivision? Do you even still level faster for having a higher IB ranked character?
Tl;dr any rep boosters we were previously awarded for Iron Banner appear to have been taken from us. I am seeking confirmation. If so, why?i

1 ReplyY1 we did not get a boost from the gear, just from the tempered buff that we purchased. with Y2 the gear added a significant boost as well as the tempered boost. with Y3, and they told us this well before the change occured, that they would be reworking how rep works. 1-4 on your main is incredibly fast level up while 1-5 on your others is enhanced, as long as you get 1 character to 5 first. and I swear that Oprah had to have redesigned the IB rewards system, cuz damn....

I take it you don't read the weekly updates...

It was actually a 33% boost. 100%-normal 110%-1 item 121%-2 items 133.1%-3 items. They also applied to previous buffs. But it really does suck now. 0-4 are are super easy. 4-5 is a pain

There's no more rep boosts, it's set at 250 per game and 150 for each medallion you get from losing. Plus there are 4 bounties available that give 750 rep each. It's a lot faster than before (except for playing on sunday and monday) but you get so much gear for playing the grind is definitely worth it.
