The Iron Banner in April starts next week in Destiny.
In “This week at Bungie,” the focus this time was on the return of Lord Saladin – The April/May Iron Banner 2016 is approaching.
All about the April Iron Banner on PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One in Destiny
The April Iron Banner begins on Tuesday, April 26th, at 7:00 PM. It ends on May 2nd at 11 AM.
The mode is Clash, so conflict.
Compared to previous times, there will be more gear available directly. Instead of legendary engrams as rewards, Guardians will receive Iron Banner gear pieces directly. At the end of the matches, there will be rewards starting from rank 0; you no longer need to reach rank 2 before items are granted.
Bungie promises updated rewards from Saladin at ranks 3 to 5, some with newly rolled perks.
The rank 3 package will now contain an artifact with 320 Light; the rank 5 package will contain a ghost with 320 Light.
The “Heavy Weapons” bounty has also been made easier, and a bug has been fixed that previously made the Iron Banner stingier than expected. There should now be more items available.
Next week, rewards will include:
- The Auto Rifle
- The Rocket Launcher
- Leg Armor
- Class Items
- And PlayStation-exclusive Class Items.
That was almost everything Bungie had this time. They will also announce the record numbers from the challenge of the Elders. The top team reached 79,570 points, clearly outperforming the competition. By the way, in the highscore team is Sc Slayerage, who already earned an excellent reputation among the Guardians in year 1. The legend himself can still do it.
Whether Xur still can, we will learn in a few hours. The arrival of the Agent of the Nine is expected on April 22nd at 11:00 AM. We will report on his inventory and, of course, on the details of the Iron Banner when it takes place next week.
