What do you think of the changes to Iron Banner? Are you going to be gunning for the new Iron Lord title this season? Let me know in the comments. The decision to allow ornaments to count as armor for the sake of Iron Banner progression is an interesting one, too, as it encourages visual theming for the event while not forcing players to farm another set of high-stat armor. It makes sense to me - it’s a decent incentive to equip different armor sets while also not complicating builds. This change to Iron Banner fits right in with that. For instance, the Season of the Haunted armor grants you more Vestiges of Dread, the seasonal currency used to generate rewards at the end of the Nightmare Containment activity. It seems like Bungie’s approach to getting players to wear seasonal armor now that they’ve ditched sunsetting is to tie the armor sets to progression. Don’t forget to wear an Iron Banner emblem if you happen to have one of those, also - it’ll increase your rank progression by another 10%. Equipping Iron Banner gear (armor and weapons) will increase your rank progression up to a total of 200%, and this includes ornaments. Oh, and this trick works for increasing Iron Banner reputation, too. You can either complete Ada’s bounties or just buy the transmog items from the Eververse store, it’s up to you. Then, you can slap them onto whatever Legendary armor you’ve already got, and boom - you’re wearing Iron Banner gear which counts towards the Triumph. If you’ve owned any Iron Banner armor in the past, you can use Ada-1’s transmog system to create some Universal Ornaments from those pieces. Now, if you’re like me and finally just cleared out your Vault at the end of last season, mercilessly ditching all of your Legendary armor pieces besides your high-stat Masterworked rolls, then you might be a little annoyed at that requirement.īut don’t worry, because there’s another way.
There’s a new seal to collect as well, and if you’ve taken a look at it in your Triumphs tab, you might have noticed something - one of the Triumphs is for completing Iron Banner matches while wearing armor from the event. Bracus Forge is bringing Iron Banner back to the Tower for the first time in Season of the Haunted this week, and Bungie’s overhauled the activity to be more in line with Crucible, Gambit, and Vanguard Operations.
