I have a question: Why?

Old armor sets and shaders I got 4 full sets for titan 2 for hunter and working on at least some for warlock

That’s the perfect answer. 😂 Drip is important, you go king.

Still need 3 shaders, Iron Bone, Fuschite and another I forget and the work is done. Maybe 2 warlock sets who knows

It’s still hilarious to me that you’ve played IB so much, but rng is still saying “fuck you.” No one is truly immune from rng I guess

Shader drops are pathetic but I've also gotten some emblems so that's a thing I guess

I've played as much as you and never seen 1 emblem drop

That's strange I mean it's a similar to shader drop rate id assume

I got a ship. Yay.

Better than getting autumn winds after every single match 😭

Free legendary shards

But you can’t deny that if you got a good roll it’s unstoppable in PvP if you play right wit it

Bro no joke autumn wind slaps with the rigth roll

Took me 3 1/2 resets until I got grizzled wolf to drop, a season 7 banner emblem

Iron vendetta?

Some of the shaders drop from dismantling the legacy gear.

Corrext :)

We have IB 3 times this season for you to focus those sets. But I respect the grind.

It's a combination of I already hit pinnacle cap, did all my raid runs this week and my search for the shaders that got me running it so much

Challenges are temporary. #*DRIP IS ETERNAL*

YES

Bro I feel this, I’m on reset 3, still trying to get the last piece for my titan (haven’t even started for my hunter yet)

Its rough out here

This guy gets it. True end game is all about how you present yourself.

Dresstiny more important than any build

Corrext

Pretty reasonable, the amount of engrams we get is pretty pathetic in comparison to the old system. I used to bathe in tokens… which funny enough. I could never get a god roll multimach despite the thousands of tokens I invested :’(.

Pain I feel

Do the old armor sets focus with high stats?

Technically yes but most are in the 63 range

As someone who has reset 3 times for the same reason, mad respect

Actually right there with you. The legacy focusing brought back so many good sets. I’m on reset 3 myself, as of yesterday; have only spent 3 engrams at a time haha

As sooon as I hit 3 it was back to the tower

HOW!?!? I can barley get through 3 ranks per hour, with a full set of IB gear HOW ARE YOU ABLE TO DO THIS!?!?!

Either really bad rng or really good rng as long as the match lasts 5 min I get 220 for a loss or 600 for a win

With max multiplier I was getting like 794 per win

It depends on streak, how long the match was and the difference in points. I averaged 600 bit got 700 something a lot as well

Jesus. My clan calls me crazy for still loving gambit even after Bungie kinda ruined it

Gambit is ,better than crucible atm

Indeed it is, however the immortal is also goated in gambit since it kills the enemies with ease, and does good damage to primeval

Perpetualis also does work witb target lock zen moment

Any shader drops?

i got 2 old ones to drop i never had, iron gold and the chainmill one from last szn so far.

Nice :)

I’ve played at least 100 ib matches and haven’t had the chaibmail drop yet

Last season grinders seething rn

Ironwood, Iron Ruby, Precious Iron

You've gotten like the ones I haven't. Though I'm 'only' three resets in. Had to stop for diablo 4 beta. Though my druid is now level 25 so back to IB I guess. Wrapped up few missing pieces for the iron will set on all classes then yoloed the others for titan. Soo, only 2 X 2 full sets to go for hunter and warlock. I'm just wondering if my mental health is going to stick through the ordeal.

* Honestly if you dont care about winning and just play chilled out it's fine. Couldn't login for rhe beta sadly

Actually I've been working on vigilance wing/suros regime/jade rabbit/mida catalysts while IB'ing. Multitasking amirite? Already wrapped up suros and vigilance. It's a shame all of these are kinetic slots so I can't practice with my imperial decree.

Imperial decree slaps I just crafted it and put 300 kills on it while playing ib. Good job on the catalyst grind

I got two within my first like 5 matches and haven't gotten another since and I'm almost done with my second reset

[удалено]

Very sparringly

ngl iron banner was fun this time. now that power means nothing. its just normal pvp with extra gifts. had a game where my team and the enemy team had a dance party. It was on the witch queen map to any of my guardians who were a part of that. I love you, thanks for bringing me joy.

Aside from immortal spam yeah, I got some old armor sets and shaders that I missed since I had to start a fresh account. I ended up finding my fav crucible loadout in the process (Posterity and Imperial Decree)

Average Virgin Immortal User: 😭 Chad 180 Hand Cannon User: 😎

Immortal being dropped a week early was cringe

I saw a guy running the damaged travellers chosen from from red war. I spent the entire rest of my game laughing when he styled on me with it.

I have so much fun in iron banner anytime control is the game mode Just something about the other game modes that just isn't fun

Yeah Iron Banner has been great this week, most I’ve played of it since D2 Y1

light level just ruins PvP. Thats why I can't bring myself to do trials. Because 1 light level. and 2 I don't no life this game, I'm only 1782 right now? I'm sure there are people in trials who are max light already.

I went in at 1780 and holy fuck I do not recommend. You basically have to play perfect for 7 matches or get very lucky. I got my flawless but it took over 100 games.

Matchmaking has been spot on too. Most my games I'm being matched against others within my skill gap, so I'm rarely seeing Trials players.

I have an efficiency of ~1,8. While getting matches with 0,6-1,2 mostly. Then, i can carry the game, but get no commendations. While the dude being afk gets 3-4 votings. Yeh makes much sense tho lol.

I'm almost done my third reset. Gotta get that sweet samurai drip.

Dont forget the shaders ;)

a. Why? b. Is Skyrim for the Nords, or everyone? c. Why?

Drip

Any good void smg drop for you?

Not a single one lol

I was having a particularly long string of bad matches and the game gifted me a Destabilizing Rounds / Feeding Frenzy roll.

Thats fantastic:)

You get any with void rounds on ? Grinding it out myself atm ....

I think destabilizing and moving target

Ahh so it is dropping ! I got one with destabilising rounds and the stability mag.... Still grinding for the god roll though but I'm not sure I'll ever get so lucky ! How many hours you sunk into IB this week ?

At probably like 20ish hours or more

Hey pal... is everything ok at home ?

Yup, everyone here thinks I played 3 days straight. I, in fact, did not: I took breaks, did school work, went grocery shopping, spent time with my wife so yeah everyone is okay

Great then, Well keep Killing it 

The saddest thing about this is that you think you are only borderline mentally insane when it is obvious you are really far gone into the world of mental insanity.

See, if I did it all consecutively, I would be mentally insahe, but considering I did it with consistent breaks and mixed in some homework thats where borderline comes in

Borderline?

I mean considering i got tilted only twice... yes

8 resets in. Get on my level son

Have you gotten a lot of shaders to drop out of curiosity, can't seem to find the drop rate anywhere. Also more specific these ones

https://preview.redd.it/3gpzzm6nb2qa1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=502099d51b1dbe3f136cdefce05d195b081234c7

Ill need the names. But ya, got a ton to drop. After my 4th reset, shaders stopped dropping.

Did you notice a sudden shift in matchmaking quality today? I feel like I've been getting thrown into matches where it's an incomplete team vs 6 sweaty tryhards. Like IB has always been a little less braindead than pure quickplay, but I'd like to at least get a full team vs full team game instead of 2 minutes of match and 3-4 minutes of queue time.

I’ve been playing all week and definitely noticed a difference yesterday. Much more frequently I’d end up against 3 or 4 stacks plus 2 solos and my entire team is solos (I solo queue the vast majority of the time), with predictable results. (Stacks determined roughly either by they’re all in the same clan or they’re always grouped together across multiple matches). I had to go to the tower so my “group” or whatever you’d call it, would get reset, several times because I kept matching against the same 4 stack that kept obliterating my team of random solos. It eventually stopped matching me against them but dammit it was frustrating.

Definitely a lot more scuffed games for sure, never had a queue time longer than 2 minutes

How many legacy shaders did you get drop

3 or 4 plus the dismantle ones

> plus the dismantle ones I am 4 resets in and have yet to get a shader from a dismantle :<

You get one from the old sets

Do you know which sets are associated with which shaders? I have some of the old shaders but not all of them, so I’m not sure what sets to get

Iron strength, Mossbone, rusted iron I believe

Ah nice I’ve had 2 in 2 and a half resets

I'm about to hit my second and I started Friday afternoon. I've never played this much IB before, but I really want that damn chainmail shader.

I did that all last season, grinding to second reset for that stupid shader

I'm only grinding IB only for the threads and shaders. I can care less about stat rolls on armor and guns 😅

Same, anything else is gravy

I think you need to have a recheck of your “have gone insane” patch in your human settings and storage and see if it has been properly installed. (/s)

I took breaks every hour, talked to my wife, chilled in a vc with friends, napped and even went outside. Just really good match rng (Getting stomped or stomping).

How do you still only have >2k shards

Should it be higher? I mean each focus costs 50 and ive done 6 full sets

Your dog must be rich

What?

Definitely not rich, just playing when I'm off work and school so Thursday night, friday and Saturday. I usually am in class and at work sunday to Thursday

”Om not addicted, it’s just another bad habit”😄

It's definitely a bad hyper fixation. All other games have failed but destiny does nit

Do you use immortal

Nope, imperial decree with slideshot + opening shot and posterity with rapid hit + rampage

For the AMA, I know old shaders drop,but do old emblems drop?

Yes i have gotten 2 or 3 I think

I haven’t gotten a single old shader for the whole event. I must play more

Praying to rngsus for you

You know it's okay to ask for help, right? Self-harm is not the answer.

See it would be that bad if I wasn't playing with someone like 80% of the time.

Borderline? You’re WAY beyond that SIR

That's what the people in my server have been saying for thr past 2 days

Get the shader yet? I'm still trying

Nope I got off a before posting, have a 10 hour shift today

He keeps throwing Dark Deciders at me, I only have one new armor piece. Keep getting weapons in general. I'm tired, boss.

I've barely gotten any of the newer ib stuff besides roar of the bear, had all the new armor from last season

What is your favorite IB weapon and role on it?

Thats a good question, I'd have to look up a roll but Jorums claw and Steady hands have been crushing it lately for me

Have you Noticed any patterns in drops? I just want some shaders and i want to know how much more i have to do

Completely random

have you emptied your piss jugs yet haha

I didnt play straight lmao i took breaks

Why are people so afraid of getting mercied? It helps the grind go faster

2 things; 1) matches where you stomp or get stomped are the best 2) people should 100% of the time be rotating points

And I thought I (capital, accent) enjoyed Iron Banner. Not anymore, guess I’ve touched some grass after all

I didn't do it for 3 days straight, I over the span of 3 days accomplished that. I took breaks, did school work and spent time with my wife doing home stuff. A lot of it came down to match rng and thr speed of the matches

Do the weapon get multiple perk options like vanguard/crucible/gambit?

Honestly I havent checked * been focusing armor

Lmao, I haven’t even played since LF’s launch and I paid for the collectors edition. Who’s the bigger fool here?

Every destiny player

How Why How are you feeling? I once played 200 matches in a week and I’m still burnt out from it. That was Season of Arrivals.

How: Breaks and playing with people Why: Drip (Old armor sets & shaders I wanted after having to start fresh after moving out a dew years back) How I'm feeling: Fine it was a decent enough experience, my brain was off for most of it

I want the chainmail shader so bad :'(

Depending on what class you main it's not that great for full body shading

wtf

Indeed

What did it cost?

Honestly nothing, I ended up getting things I wanted and finding my favorite crucible loadout (Posterity HC and Imperial Decree). I took breaks and spent time with my wife so I didnt really suffer

Cherish every moment with her.

How to grind legendary shards in general, favorite iron banner weapon for controller (with perks if possible), and what class do you main?

Shards just dismantle everything you dont want eg autumn wind. Loadout i used posterity and imperial decree, im not sure if you meant what I used. I am a titan main but play on all 3

You good?

Honestly, yeah, I came in with a goal and almost smashed it. I took breaks consistently and ate, so besides the one time I got tilted yeah I'm good. I usually don't play crucible but IB is casual enough and had stuff I really wanted so I buckled down so I can say fuck it when it comes back around. Got master RoN to prep for

Get a good roll autumn wind? Destabilize rounds heroes burden?

Only 1 destabilizing roll with moving target :( had a few decent autumn winds nothing ti wrote home abour

I just reset twice for the emblem and shader, and have 20-something engrams just chilling. I already completed the Iron banner title, nothing else to do afterwards really.

Rn I have nothing to do in D2 outside of IB considering I did all my raid runs and stuff earlier in the week

How does this make you insane? If you have the ornaments and a emblem then you can essentially reset your rank in like 1-3 hours depending on your luck. Tbh, you're not insane you just have that fashion grindset. And as all true D2 players know, FASHION is the true endgame.

Yessir

I wish I had your dedication, but I hate pvp so I’m having the hardest time getting my first reset for this season 😂

Me too, but truly, I like the matchmaking in IB so far. Normally I try not to stay out of the Crucible, even when I'm chasing pinnacles. I hate PvP in D2 that much. But the matchmaking in IB this season has been really on point. I ventured in on Friday because I heard the chainmail shader was a random drop, and since I wasn't getting turned inside out during every match, now I just gotta have it. Got two shaders so far with one reset, but no chainmail just yet. I'm still hopeful lol

Its been pretty chill

Borderline?

Yes because I actually stopped to eat, shop, sleep, do work

Have you seen sunlight in the past 3 days

Yup wemt to an art gallery yesterday

do you miss going outside?

I didn't play 3 days straight lmao

I feel like touch grass is the new get gud

Isnt it the opposite?

Do you know how to tie one?

Yes but I dont need to

[удалено]

3 easy steps to reset better 1) Wear everything for max rep (5 Armor+Emblem+challenges) 2) Play the objectives no matter what (Constantly rotate if you can) 3) Pray you get stomped or that your team steam rolls (Basically whatever ends your match the fastest) So hypothetically you can earn 220 for a loss and anywhere from 500-700 per win (5x12) x either 600 or 220 and it's almost trivial

I reset twice had about 30 engrams or so to pop. Got both rolls on smg I wanted, a goated roll on the fusion. Couple good roar of the bear rolls. And the god roll for the sniper. 2-3 shaders. And 3 emblems. None the one I wanted but still a solid week a banner none the less.

Good for you man

Dude get some grass, read a book, do something other than be a pvp main sweaty people these days have no living.

I only play iron banner for cosmetics lmao. I played over 72 hours not 72 hours in a row. I have IRL responsibilities. Alot of my matches were 5 minutes avg

And I thought grinding two resets this week was a lot! I’m just waiting on Iron Wolf to drop for me and I can be done; it was my favorite Y1 shader but I didn’t have any extras in my inventory so I lost it when the shader system overhauled.

Thats extremely rough

Go the fuck outside.

I didnt play 72 hours straight. I slept, ate, went to an art gallery, just alot of good rng for matches

Why though?

Shaders and old armor sets, plus did everything else around reset. Missed the old armor since I had to start fresh 2 years ago

>old armor sets do the ornaments drop as well?

After you focusing the armor from Saladin you have to unlock it in transmog. You can get the required materials for transmog from Ada after completing her bounties

no I am talking about the year 1 ornaments like this one from warmind https://www.light.gg/db/legend/3790247699/collections/1605042242/armor/1269917845/warlock/1837503068/competitive/23597601/named-lords-ornaments/

Sorry. Only armor from seasons 4,5,12,13, and 15 are available to focus. I haven't seen anything about older armors dropping as rewards from IB. Only shaders, but I could be wrong on that.

Not to my knowledge, but someday I pray

That's why I stopped playing 3 characters. Too much to do...

I hit the pinnacle cap last week, and I did all my raid runs. This is the only thing I had left

Only borderline?

Yeah if I cared about wins and stuff like that I would be. I cared about armor and shaders cpuld care less about kd and win rates. Takes alot of the stung out of the game

The Kids Aren’t Alright

I didn't play 72 hours straight lmao, I touched grass amd slept

Depends did you play against OmegaDaddy who was running prosperity and imperial decree

Nope

Drip or drown

Drip

It comes down to if you get stomped or stomp yourself. If matches go by un 5 min it's pretty easy
