Lord Saladfork says "Odds are you are not ready for the Iron Banner"

Not even that but when it spawns you right next to the enemy team during heavy round so you can't even make it out of your spawn

[quote]It takes me a total of 15 seconds in order to spawn now. [/quote] -There is an increased respawn time in rift because you spawn near your rift (typically.) Killing a member of the other team when you have the rift should remove that person from defending the rift, not put them right next to it. It's the game style. There is an extra spawn point for when people are on your spawn, but if those are both covered, they will stagger your spawn for a couple seconds so you don't get spawn killed. [quote]it would be amazing to be able to actually pick up the spark. I've had friends play with me and also say that they can't pick up the spark. The " hold X " doesn't pop up on the [b][u]spark[/u][/b], and you can sit there for literally 10 seconds and [b][u]not be able to pick it up[/u][/b]. [/quote] -if you are nudged by another player, it generally disrupts your action and you have to press the button again. Same thing for revives, ammo, ghost deployment, etc. [quote] [u][b]the loot needs fixed[/b][/u]. Badly. I can't even tell you guys how badly this needs fixed. [/quote] -iron banner loot works differently than normal crucible. The loot is blue gear and all of the things that the iron banner is selling that week. You need to increase your iron banner rank for certain drops to appear. You can see the rank required to buy the gear at Lord Saladin. To get items to drop for you, your rank needs to be one lower than what you'd need to buy it. Example: Scout rifle requires rank 4 to buy, when you reach rank 3 it can start to drop with random perks. Pro-tip: turn in all iron banner bounties once you complete them and try to do the dailies if you can (the three easy ones an average player could complete in 1-2 matches.) [quote]The bounty " IRON GAUNTLET " Requiring a kill streak ( 10 ),[/quote] -10 kills, not in a row. It's either that or get 10 kill streaks. Not sure, this is usually one of the first tasks I complete. The old iron banner had a daily quest to get a 10 kill streak, but people complained that it was too hard, so they made it easy mode. [quote] Double Kills ( 5 ), [/quote] -What it sounds like [quote]Top Overall Score,[/quote] -honestly is the only thing on here that is hard to do. It's unnecessary to get to rank 3 and 5 for iron banner packages and only results in faster progression and 25 legendary marks. [quote]and the Iron Banner Rank 4. Why is it rank 4? Why can't it be 2? Halfway of the halfway? [/quote] -I'm going to guess that you either a.) have never done an iron banner before and b.) do not particularly enjoy playing pvp. The experience points you get in iron banner scales up drastically later in the week for people who struggle to get wins. This part of the game caters to the large portion of the community that wants to play more challenging pvp matches without having to get obliterated in trials of Osiris. I'm a fairly average pvp player and these quests are very easy for me. I think that most of your post, if not all of it, is misguided. Try looking at an iron banner tips video or something. Destiny requires grinding. You're not going to just blow through all of the weekly iron banner bounties in the first two days.
