Over the last week Destiny 2 held The Iron Banner, an event that occurs every month. Lord Saladin visits the tower with neat looking armor and weapons that will be rewarded to the guardians that are participating. This new iteration of The Iron Banner is great for new players, it gives them a reason to come back every day and the token system is simple, unlike the bounty system in Destiny 1. Though this iteration of Iron Banner caters to the new and casual audience, it leaves us mid to hardcore players with not much to care about. There’s nothing that progresses our power level, no difficulty with Light advantage off, and on top of that, players not committing to an Iron Banner match. Eastern-Inspired Iron Banner Gear  I’ve dabbled in Iron Banner in Destiny 1, it wasn’t my kind of game mode. I liked the PvP in both Destiny and Destiny 2, but once someone talks about hardcore PvP my interest was gone, my only incentives were getting the gear and getting my Light leve

I f you’re like me and many others, your running out of stuff to do in Destiny 2 – outside of the weekly activities. Worry not, next week we will see Lord Saladin and the return of the Iron Banner and more. Last week, we saw the introduction of Faction Rallies. This was a fun, cool way to get players logging in every day. Though it was a neat idea putting other players against each other – outside of PvP, it didn’t feel like that, it felt like just another currency to hand in to an NPC. Who will you pledge to? For those who don’t know about the Faction Rally it’s an event where you pledge to a faction; Dead Orbit, New Monarchy, or Future War Cult. Every activity will earn you tokens associated with the faction, in doing so will grant you gear and weapons from the faction. The neat part is at the end of the week a winning faction is announced and will grant everyone a unique weapon. For the players who pledge to Dead Orbit (current winners) you get a scout rifle for 1000 g
