My hard drive on my PlayStation can only fit so many games. The drop rate and event reward dissatisfaction in Destiny 2 is indicative of another problem. This isn’t a manifesto of entitlement, complaining about what I did or did not get for Christmas. This decision left more than one Guardian missing set pieces with no recourse. Bungie even informed players that after redeeming thirty rewards, factions would only drop shaders. The previous event, Faction Rally, also left me with only a few pieces of unique armor. These redditor’s stories don’t encourage me to continue grinding the same PVP mode for more duplicates.Īdvertisements This is where I’d keep all my Iron Banner armor. Various posts on Reddit revealed players who have received close to thirty packages, and still haven’t received armor pieces, which are probably the biggest incentive due to their unique aesthetic. The drop rate has been pretty lame for me. I received duplicates of several weapons, and one other piece of gear the hunter helmet. Of my eleven reward packages, four have been the exact same item – the hunter cloak – at the exact same power level of 294. Whereas previously you would get two items (one non-event) and a shader, my 11 th package contained only one item. After that, the event rewards for turning in tokens actually decreases. The Surface Problemĭestiny 2 designates this event as “Season 1.” Turning in 200 tokens, to receive ten rewards, grants players a final reward package containing a handful of both shaders, a special player emblem, and some random gear. Just between you, me, and all the people on the internet Iron Banner has some real problems.

Iron Banner is the second timed event since the games launch, following the Faction Rally last month. Iron Banner rewards include shaders, weapons, armor, and player emblems. This timed event has players participating in PVP control maps, completing PVP challenges, and turning in tokens to Saladin for event-themed rewards.
The game will be launching on PC via, and console players are seeing the return of Lord Saladin and the Iron Banner faction. October is set to be a big month for Destiny 2.
