Iron Banner Event Reward Track Doesn't Feel Good

I have only played iron banner for a couple hours but I just feel like the new event track system is not a good fit for iron banner. Like all the other event tracks, it takes forever to gain levels once you've gotten through the challenges, and it also does not feel like the rewards are even worth it at all. Your options for focusing gear are very limited, you can focus a weapon for 100 event coins, but that means within one day you can't even focus one gun without a reroll chip. This wouldn't be much of a complaint if the loot was just raining on you, but the amount of drops per match feels way too low for the time investment. The previous system felt much more rewarding, dropping rewards post match and leveling up your rep with saladin which actually allowed you to focus engrams on specific stuff. I enjoyed farming for a tinasha's mastery in revenant because even though there was only a chance of it dropping each match, each match I played was progressing towards me getting more of them because of the engram focusing. Whereas right now it feels like I'm rolling the dice for anything of value to drop. I don't know what would fix this, I would appreciate if all the crucible rewards that drop at the end of a match were replaced with iron banner gear, and that more should be dropping. I think playing matches of iron banner should provide progress towards a way of determining what item you want to drop because currently the motivation to play is really not there.

  • Who was the idiot who decided to get rid of all the bonuses you could have towards Banner Reputation? No armor bonus. No emblem bonus. Nothing. I want my Synth Weave back that I wasted so I could use something besides Iron Banner armor in the event.
