I didn't really read the replies. I wanted to have a non-tainted opinion on this... In normal Crucible, everything is level balanced. Per example: Your exotic Sniper will deal as much damage as a common one. Iron Banner is different in that the level balance is gone. This means that if you use a common sniper, you might just get rid of their shields? Maybe? After a full clip? While a fully leveled exotic sniper can, and will, destroy everything it hits. I personally have a legendary sniper for Crucible, which has explosive rounds. Usually I can take out the whole shield, and half their health, no matter where I hit a person. And I rarely even have to connect again, because the rounds deal AoE damage. If my sniper didn't have those level restrictions, then I would kill almost anyone in one shot. No matter where I hit. I don't know if you knew any of that, and most of that was example (except for my sniper). I have yet to play Iron Banner. (Internet is out.) I'm not trolling. I'm not trying to be a bad guy. I'm not trying to insult you. I'm just letting you know that the rules in IB are different. Edit: I really fluffed up there. I misread the post a bit, and assumed a bit more. XD what I would like to do, so as to avoid the whole community calling me an idiot, is apologize. This has never really happened before, but I guess I've gotten used to the idea that people just don't like the game, and just make my assumptions based on skimming and titles. I will use this as an opportunity to grow, and I accept full responsibility for my actions. Thank you. And I apologize to anybody who reads the post above, because... It is a little idiotic. XD
