Could only play up to rank 4, completing all the bounties, and I'm only missing the helmet for my hunter...My titan is not even rank 5 yet and I got the full Iron Saga armor set
This is the proper way to implement IB loot! I can't push to rank 5 this week (leaving for a company trip tomorrow morning up until Tuesday), but I'm pretty excited for the next time IB shows up now!

So doing Archon's Forge, I just noticed the Tier of the offering helps finish your bounties faster
So a Fused gives you +1 to your bounty
Enhanced gives you +2
Perfected is +4
So if you have a Perfected saved of a certain type and its bounty, get the Win and finish the bounty in one go
Was awesome to get all 3 of my chars get done with All Shiro bounties from last and this week
His bounties have been giving me 385 Primary for the hell of it... I'll take it!, won't complain
All 3 of my characters are now 385, the push to 385+ begins
Getting 386-387 here and there
Hoping to see 388, 389 weapons/armor soon
390 is only looks like is the Raid Exotic, got all 3 quests going on my Guardians

I just got put into a match that ended 92-25. When the score was 90-25! Mercy was called as I was landed on the map. Why is this a thing!
Haha, got about the same thing yesterday, landed in a 80 to 20 something match.
Quickest IB match ever, but hey, gives a quick chance at great loot!

Hi guys, I've not played since Vanilla, but just bought the complete collection and am diving back in with a fresh character.
Any tips for someone who's not played since a few months after launch? I'm guessing a lot has changed. I was a Hunter before, but thinking I might go with something different this time... unless the new Hunter subclass they added is fun?
Also, I've swapped over from PS4 to Xbox this time around. I know cross play and character transferring isn't supported, but is there anything at all that I can port across via bungie.net or something?
Thanks for the help!

In iron banner, is the scout rifle and hand cannon dropping in post game screen or only in packages? I haven't seen either drop and I already turned in all my bounties.
I got the side arm, fusion rifle and rocket launcher (with heavy payload and tracking, loving the design of it). What's suppose to be good?

Nothing unfortunately, you´ll have to start from scratch.
The entire game has been "questified", just playing the quest and moving along will get you into "our" range pretty quickly.

Only through packages you can get the different weapons

The transition between Trials and Iron Bonanza is massive lol.
Even just playing with 1 or 2 people you know enables you to steamroll most teams. Most Guardians will just ignore crests or have no idea where they went. Easy to coordinate a mop up with people you are partying with.

I never actually played enough Year 1 and 2 to have this problem:
What the hell do I spend my marks on now that I bought all the vendor weapons worth buying?
I have plenty of materials as well.

Goddamnit I am really getting tired of no matchmaking for the Raids...
Now I completely understand the reasoning, but it doesn't mean jack shit if you live in a time zone like me (JST) where absolutely nobody on any of the forums or sites you can access are going to be playing at the same time as you.
Drop extra loot for people willing to put up with the pubs and help out in the MM version. Or make it so that there is an automatic extra ToC chance on the bosses for helping out pubs. I don't care. Think of something to balance out the inevitable bad runs.
It's just so frustrating grinding to the right level and having absolutely no luck putting together a party of 6. I would rather take my chances on MMing.
Sorry for the rant, but I am about to just drop RoI at this point. At 366 light I am tired of running Heroic Strikes and just want to do the damn raid. It took me like 2 hours to get a group together yesterday and then half of them go afk after we fail twice on the first boss (we even got him to like 5%-10% health on the first try) and then the entire thing falls apart.

Iron Bonanza is too much fun lol. Even the losses- some have been super sweaty and down to the very last few crests.

Where are the steps broken down?
Wh picked up the quest and now have to do the first step I guess?
Nightfall and stuff.

That's incredibly frustrating I'm sorry to hear that's been your experience so far. What time are you usually playing?
Yah I got nothing. The only thing I do is splurge on mats when I reach 200. I don't think there's anything else. If there is, I'd like to know too.
Anyone up for OP quest? I have a hunter starting out and a titan 1/2 way through (up to second decode thing). PM here and/or friend me on PSN (ID: ZonySUX) if you need it or feel like giving a hand.
I raided with wild_whiskey on Tuesday, he mentioned he was in Japan. Maybe hit him up for some tips or even to get on his next raid train? Btw, you can solo IB to raise that light level.
JST is +7hrs from western Europe, I think you could put together a group of willing euros playing in the early afternoon to join up with you playing in the evening. Either on the weekend or maybe on weekly reset day. Just coordinate a bit ahead of time, put out the message on this forum a few days early on post it a few times over the days leading up to it. I know wouldn't mind raiding with you this saturday at 1pm CET/ 8pm JST for example.
Same here, up to 200 marks again. Is there a list of the best weapons to expend marks from the vendors? I already have the Crucible vendor Hand Cannon (Palindrome) and the Sniper Rifle (Event Horizon).
Is there a decent Scout Rifle compared to the Hung Jury?
I'm sorry to hear that mate. What time do you usually play? I usually play Saturday and Sunday morning (UK time, afternoon for you in Japan if I'm not wrong), so if you wanna gather a raiding group for that time just let me know, I'm pretty sure there are a lot of Euro DGaffers who are willing to raid on mornings-early afternoons
In case you are unlucky trying to gather people her,e I strongly recommend you the100.io, a matchmaking website. There you can create a game session 2 or 3 days in advance, indicate what time do you want to play and I'm pretty sure you will find a group rather quick, there are games going on every single hour (and the community is quite nice and easy-going based on my experience)

I'm stuck on stage 9. This quest is a ball ache.
On your hunter, right? I'm at that same step with my titan. Find us a warlock and we golden. (I'm assuming Joe finished it with someone else?)

387 but still getting 384 drops
Not sure exactly, but here's a screenshot. There's a path you can take from by the cable cars.

Yeah, by jumping of the cable car in the very first mission.

Was doing a raid with some friends on Tuesday, and this moment will forever live on as one of my favorites.

I don't understand this at all. Not even 385, but 384. It's like bungie just wants to fuck with us. "Nice job getting to cap, now stop playing cause we're going to shit on your effort".

I wish they would at least be your actual light level, I don't care about going higher but stuff isn't even that useful for infusion if drops lower than what you already have.
Nice! I haven't had any primaries drop for me yet.
. Only shotguns, armor, a ghost and an artifact.

I would just stop caring TBH.
At 380+ you fairly over-leveled for everything the game has to offer right now.
HM will have 385+ drops, CM probably straight up 400 drops.

RNG. Was my most desired exotic and was totally worth it! I got mine from a crucible exotic engram. A friend got his from the same. Maybe just keep popping 3oC during crucible matches and pray? lol
