Is there a list of what sets focus on what stat anywhere?

 

I don't think anyone's made a dedicated list yet. (Edit: WRONG - see https://www.rllmukforum.com/index.php?/topic/297347-destiny-2-iron-banner-prestige-raid-101017/&do=findComment&comment=11612499)

 

Here's a summary of mobility-based stuff:

 

https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/750sms/is_there_a_list_that_shows_which_armor_is/do2lh1h/

 

Warlock:

Exodus Down (Nessus)

Gensym Knight (Io)

Philomath (random drop)

Heiro Camo (random drop)

Fulminator (Raid)

Sekris (Prestige Raid)

 

Titan:

Phoenix Strife Type 0 (Crucible)

Gensym Knight (Io)

Kerak Type 2 (random drop)

Retro-Grade TG2 (random drop)

Annihilating (Trials)

Crushing (Flawless Trials)

 

Hunter:

Gensym Knight (Io)

Road Complex AA1 (random drop)

Floating (Trials)

Flowing (Flawless Trials)

 

I really need to get that Io set together. Alongside the IB set, that'll do me I reckon.

I'd say anything above 4 resilience is ok, but the most important thing (for me anyway) is recovery. That just makes a massive difference all the way up to 10 - like, the difference between 9 and 10 is actually more critical than the difference between, say, 0 and 2. But obviously it depends on your playstyle to an extent. Warlocks having a natural propensity for recovery - and the fact that the have rifts on top of that - puts them in the fast lane in this respect.

 

Oh, hold on - I shield have checked the DestinyFashion subreddit. Of course.

I'm using Restorative right now (not entirely by design) - but in Cruicible (which so often comes down to 1vs1 shoot fests) others seem to melt me while I do more limited damage to them (even with same guns) so want to try Res

There are two milestones for IB: a daily Iron Banner challenge (complete three challenges in IB - no idea what, as I haven't been in yet), and a 'seasonal reward' gained by collecting 10 IB packages during Season 1, so ranking up 10 times I guess. Obviously you get rep tokens by completing matches; more for winning one than losing. The engrams Saladin's offering look like they come out at 297 for characters at 300 pure/305 max.

Fyi, resilience stat only affects health (the last third of your bar/the red bar you see on pvp enemies).

Also not every point in res will make a difference; you might move your stats around to get from, say, 3 res to 4 and still die in the same number of headshots.

chaps this vault app received an update and it now periodically checks your inventory on all characters and transfers blue items to the vault. it also highlights duplicates on the vault now (in case you have the odd duplicate). it is the dog's bollocks.

Pretty easy prestige this week but still a good challenge which took a few practice goes before we nailed it

So if you have not done it so far now is the time. Keep on top of the adds in the boss phases and it should be straightforward as there are no time oracles to shoot or timegates to jump through and you just get a few extra seconds per kill. We killed most stuff apart from at the drill which we just skipped on scooters. The warlock rift helped a lot but devour didn't seem to work. Had some serious issues with ammo drops in all the tries, don't know if its some hidden modifier but it was pretty scarce.

The new map added today for Crucible is one from the first game, a Venus one I think? It's the one where B is sticking out on a platform and A is in a cave with a little tunnel that used to lead to power armour, but scaled down slightly.

 

The Seasonal IB milestone is cross character as well, so whatever the "seasonal rewards" are, you're only getting one.

Oh cool, I like that. The daily challenges nudge you towards playing a little on each character each day, so it's cool to have something they can all work towards. 

 

Just solo queued a few matches over lunch. Two wins, one loss and the challenges got me 33 tokens, so just over a rank and a half. Wasn't too bad apart from the loss, which put me in a team 50 points down against four dudes in the same clan, but it only lasted a few minutes. Certainly wasn't as bad as I'd feared, though that will probably change once the schools kick out for the day.

I like that it also counts towards call to arms. So far I’ve gotten the hunter legs, a submachine gun, an emblem (tracks rank ups) and a few shaders. I’ve won more than I’ve lost so far, queuing solo. Connection seems better than D1 for me.

 

Also Saladin is doing a sexy VO now instead of it just having the standard Shaxx one.

Best thing about Iron Banner this time around: The music in each match is the Aksis theme from the Wrath of the Machine. Well done Bungie :wub:

 

Its pretty much the only good thing, the connections are bad even for IB - I don’t think I have ever played a game of PvP with such bad connections in my life - 56k included :lol:

 

Still I did eventually get my 4 kill with a Nova bomb as the 2 that didn’t die on impact did 5 secs later.....

You are fucking kidding me! :facepalm:

Its not the same theme all the way through, but it definitely kicks in at the 30 seconds remaining mark after Saladin announces it. It seems to be a mash up of Eyes Up and a few other soundtracks from Rise of Iron. Think I heard Shadow of the Walker in there too.

 

On the subject of Saladin, I am a bit dissapointed that he doesnt seem to recognise you from Rise of Iron. Veterans should definitely get some extra dialogue from the man who hand picked you to help him secure the Iron Temple, shut down Siva production, seal the facility and then go on to finish off the House of Devils, as well as their Siva enhanced Kell, Aksis. After the differences in dialogue in the rest of the campaign, strikes and other stuff, to not have that is a bit baffling.
