I didn't get on in time for the glitch. :(

He has Felwinter's.
Guess I'll be running some IB this week! :)
List of items.
Helmets
Boots
Shotgun (Void, shot package, kneepads, Flared Magwell/QuickDraw/injection mold )
Auto Rifle (Focused Fire, counterbalance, Lightweight/Flared Magwell/rifled barrel)
Rank 3: boots and one etheric light
Rank 4: helmets and Shotguns
Rank 5: Auto rifle and the other etheric light
And the other items that I'm sure most of us have already bought if we wanted them.
List of items.
Shotgun (Void, shot package, kneepads, Flared Magwell/QuickDraw/injection mold )
The vendor version has aggressive ballistics too - it's a decent roll for the currently-favored long range shotguns, except Injection mold is reducing the range. Reinforced (best range) or Rifled Barrel (good range) would make it perfect.

I am just wondering who is actually going to invest the time this go around.
Seems like with the Taken King right around the corner alot of people are not going to do it, unless you havent got a felwinters?
Im torn on the matter, I have every weapon, and the armor is less than desirable in most cases I have seen. Not to mention it will probably never be touched after Sept 15th. Also Etheric light will be less useful to my knowledge, since ascending the weapons will only put them at the year 1 max.

I've got the old Simlars Wrath, but I've heard the new one is the slower firing archtype. I'll probably try to get on sometime this week simply to get one of those.
I'm out
I have all the guns except felwinter, but given all the changes coming I'm hesitant to waste time for something that I may use for all of two weeks. I fully expect to have to replace everything when TTK comes out.

Felwinters is the only reason I'm doing it. I don't have one and would like one for PvP.
Its definitely worth it

I really love my felwinters. I dont have the old superhouse one that everyone else likes to rub in my face, but its still a solid Shotgun. I usually mix up which of the "Big three" I use. (Felwinters, Party Crasher, Matador)
Grab the emblems for your collection.

If the Bungie Twitter account is to be believed, they won't be returning after this IB.

Who needs a felwinters when you have your two to the morgue?
I'm in on Xbone

I like IB because that's one of the few times we get full teams of DBOers. I'll probably only play on 1 character though, get the shotty and a couple E lights. Control is my favorite casual playlist anyway.
+1

DBO teams and Etheric Light is all the incentive I need to play some IB.
Shoot me an invite if you guys need a teammate

I'll do it on Xbox at least. I think it's my only hope of hitting 34 level this week. And I still need to kills kolas so 34 is important
I'm skipping this one...
by bluerunner , Music City, Wednesday, August 26, 2015, 00:09 (3475 days ago) @ TheeChaos
Definitely doing the next one. I really want this armor.

Doing this one so I can buy that armor immediately.

I'm going to bet they won't announce it again.
The first I heard of IB this time around was when I logged in, presumably to stop glitchers. Bet they do that again.
Wasn't it on BNet's bar?

It was?
Damn, I kind of want to grind it out this week now.
But at the same time, I have so much grinding to do already. My pre-TTK master plan to make all my characters have beautiful faction rep is taking forever.
Nope, it wasn't. My bad.

TTK reveal snagged the priority off of IB in the bar.

Seriously though, that armor looks badass :)

No, you're not. I was making that joke to dog cow when you were away from mic last night.
Makes me want it all the more.

Who is participating? I am.
Because it's fun.
I can't guarantee I'll be on every night (PS4, username Kahzgul), but if I am on, feel free to send me a friend invite and join me and my pals for some IB. We're terrible at strategy but are great individually. We also make lots of horrible jokes.
Looks like a great roll on the Auto Rifle...
by CruelLEGACEY , Toronto, Tuesday, August 25, 2015, 20:08 (3475 days ago) @ bluerunner
With the impending AR buff, it might be worth getting at least 1 character up to rank 5 to buy this Silimar's Wrath. Looks like a good one.
For the first time in ages this IB isn't killing me with lag
Played a bunch last night and this is the first Iron Banner I've done in *forever* where it wasn't completely full of lag-switching cheaters. Thank god for all of those bans.
That being said, there are a *ton* of Trials tryhards, so expect Thorn/Shotgun combos early and often.

That's funny, my first few games last night were completely unplayable due to lag.
