You're missing the whole idea behind the Iron Banner. Maybe Bungie will do another event and call it the Velvet Banner or something and everyone can get rep just for showing up. There will be other events. Other events will be all inclusive and allow everyone to easily get everything they want. Queen's wrath was one of those. There is one event so far in Destiny that is not all inclusive and that is Iron Banner. Is it okay for Bungie to make one event that is a team based skill event? Let the hardcore players have one event.

    Honestly, you'd have a point if the IB gear had the ability to get 30 light

  • Raid gear is the only way to get 30 light. It's not about getting max level with the gear. It's about getting exclusive gear. Only people that work their butt off and are skilled will get the Iron Banner gear.

  • Honestly, if you have the raid gear it's a waste of shards. If shard it long before I'd upgrade or wear it just because I can't maintain level 30 wearing it. Would much rather save shards for the next set of raid gear to be released.

  • I don't think it will be shardable a la Queen's wrath gear was not. If Destiny adds a vanity feature though in the future it would definitely be nice to have.

  • Sure, nice for vanity, however I'm struggling with grinding hours in the crucible for vanity purposes. Really, they should have light level 30 armor with crucible specific bonuses for the pinnacle of PvP.

  • It's optional you don't have to do it.

    Of course it's optional, doesn't mean I cant advocate for better quality gear for those who prefer PvP

  • Honestly, do you start out all of your posts with Honestly?

  • What's 5 rep to the top 2 on the losing team compared to the 30+ you get for winning? Nothing but an incentive to keep playing which is all I'm trying to get at.

    I'm not missing the point on IB. You're missing the point I'm trying to make. So the way you see it is "I have friends I can play with anytime I want. I got to rank 3 the first day IB came out. Why can't everyone just be like me ?" 1st, no.. stop. 2nd, you sound like people who get an exotic through sheer luck and then xur comes around the corner selling the same exotic and you're complaining that anyone can buy the exotic that you feel you earned through whatever you want to call it.

  • I'm currently at rank 1. I tried going into Iron Banner solo and it doesn't work. I then made a new friend and joined Iron Banner as a fireteam. We started winning. I'm just trying to tell you how you can get rep. If you don't want to take my advice then don't. Don't expect Bungie to make it easier though for you for this event. I could care less about Xur selling exotics. If someone sucks at PVP and they have an exotic it's not going to make them a better player.

  • No trust me, I know that being in a fireteam is a huge advantage over a group of rando's. What I don't think you get though is even if you join up with another person or 2 which is what I try to do most of the time (definitely doesn't work out that way at all), you still have people who leave your team, leaving you with a man or more down from the other team.
