Gear & Bounties

Normal Crucible matches rarely award you high-quality gear, but in the Iron Banner you’ll have better odds of Legendary rewards.

To avoid making this article too long, I’ve created a separate article detailing the armor, weapons, and bounties for this Iron Banner.

Here’s the gist of it:

Weapons

  • There’s 4 weapon types available now.
  • These weapon types are divided between match rewards and Lord Saladin.
  • Reforge IB weapons; reset progression with new perks.

Armor

  • There’s a new helm, chest, gauntlet, and boot for each class.
  • New boots and gauntlets allow you to reach Light Level 31, but you’ll still need at least 1 Exotic & Raid armor piece as well.
  • Only 2 ‘raid-equivalent’ Iron Banner pieces can be sold at once.

Bounties

  • IB Bounties are now claimed and turned in at Lord Saladin.
  • There are 2 new Salvage-specific bounties (which may or may not be for this upcoming Iron Banner).
  • IB Bounties reward more rep/XP.
