Iron Banner Explanation

Hey everyone i know most of the vets don't need to know how IB works so if your new stick around and I'll explain. (Iron banner consists of control only) 1) wins give you iron banner standing (Nightfall bonus does indeed boost standing as well as the xp gained Thank AustinSX for testing it) 2) if you lose you gain a medallion don't discard these because if you win the medallions will boost the rep you get off your win. They stack up to 5. 3) be at least 27-29, now your allowed entrance to the iron banner at lvl 20 but.... 4) Levels do matter just as much as the weapons you bring in you will only hold your team back being by being under 26( I know I said 27-29 but that's a gray zone). 4.5) well you guys are slightly right and weapon damages don't matter but giving me examples with legendary guns is bullshit because your comfortable with its perks and how the weapon handles. Weapons do matter to the fact of how comfortable you are with the weapons you bring into the iron banner. (here's a video of zombie judo me and my friend Rowan rocking white weapons loadouts during IB http://youtu.be/xz2FBDiHdsA ) 5) make sure you get the booster that lord Saladin sells if not you'll be doing this for the entire week. The booster gives bonus reputation for the iron banner. So that you can purchase the items from his inventory and achieve the reward weapons at rank 3. 6) Rank 3 is where everything gets better! Because at this point in the iron banner you can be rewarded two of the weapons they offer as rewards. Exotics can drop at any rank in the iron banner. Confirmed drops: 7) if you hate the perks on your IB weapon equip it and take it to banshee when you get there you can reroll your perks. 8)[quote]Each iron banner item (emblem, class item, shader) give you an extra 11% reputation. Stacking for a total of 33%[/quote] Thank you zombie judo 9)[quote]Reputation boost lasts 12 hours (?) and can be purchased repeatedly (at least once a day). Also, the strength of the boost increases over the course of the week.[/quote] Thank you philonius 10)[quote]Tempered buff chart: Tuesday: +10% Wednesday: +15% Thursday: +25% Friday: +40% Saturday: +60% Sunday: +100% Monday: +150%[/quote] zombie judo 11)[quote]New useful bit of info. Bungie mentioned that your lower ranked characters get a boost in rep. This will only work if you have one character that's at least rank 3. The boost is a massive 100% rep boost and will last until you hit the rank of your highest ranked character. Abuse the -blam!- out of it.[/quote] by Kainamii Now for the inventory that we for lord Saladin: (all of these items at purchasable through glimmer except for the booster. Boots Gauntlets Fusion rifle (Perun's Fire) Scout rifle(Gheleon's Demise) Class items rank 4 Player cards rank 1 2400 Player cards rank 3 2400 Million to million rank 2 glimmer Gold spiral rank 5 glimmer Rep booster 1 mote of light If the vets stuck around to read this and want to add anything message me or post and I'll add it. :) If it becomes too much of a problem I'll add how to play control for the noobs :p Edit-thank you zombie judo for #8 Also thanks to philonius for #9. Also thank you guys who are correcting me on little things and for the people who are liking this post as well as bumping it. Edit 2-ranks approx: the first one may not be exact but it's easy as -blam!- to get to rank 1 Rank 1- 100rep you get about 25-66 rep per win not counting if you succeeded in your bounties. Rank 2- 1200 rep Rank 3 - 2400 rep Rank4&5 should be the same as rank 3 Edit 3- When the next IB comes around I'll bump this thread again so anybody new doesn't miss out. Edit-4 my post is only here for an explanation on what IB is but if your looking for strategy please go to Ace Dolo's post [quote]https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/102148884/0/0 Cause strategy[/quote] With the Taken king dlc around the corner I'm interested to see how the crucible level and armor advantages will be changed. until then this post is now closed maybe we'll open it back up once we get a feel for the new mechanics bungie is bringing to us, the players.

    HoW called it two months ago. One week before or the week of mays banner. Remember its always about the banner after the next one. So this banner (april): 32 chest 32 helmet (<main incentive) 331 pulse rifle 331 fusion. End game drops: 331 machine gun 331 auto rifle Mays banner: 33 gear (no 34 for a couple months) 362 weapons (no shotgun or machine gun) (^main incentive) End game drops: 362 fusion rifle (<main incentive) 362 pulse rifle (<main incentive) (Edit: depending on weapon upgrade stipulations) (Edit: the new incentive for post HoW ib weapons will be the new perks)
