In Destiny, the Iron Banner runs in May 2017! You can acquire these weapon rolls and this gear from Lord Efrideet.
In this week, from May 9 to May 16, a special Iron Banner takes place: Hexenkessel Conflict is the game mode. This means for the Guardians that they can save some of their ammo, as their light serves as their “main weapon”. You can activate one super after another, throw heaps of grenades, and on top of that, heavy ammo spawns more frequently.
Don’t forget to stop by Lord Efrideet in the Iron Temple. She has bounties for you to earn loot and level up faster in the “Iron Banner” rank. Additionally, she offers weapons and armor pieces with fixed rolls. We will show you which items are particularly worthwhile.
The 100%-Gear in the Iron Banner in May 2017
The armor pieces referred to as 100%-gear have the maximum value for intellect, discipline, or strength. You need an average of over 96% on the rolls to unlock 12 attribute fields. Then we speak of T12.
If you strike at Efrideet this week, you can’t go wrong. Each item has at least 98%! However, these armor pieces stand out with 100%:
- Titan: Chest Armor with 61 discipline and 61 strength
- Titan: Leg Armor with 56 intellect and 56 discipline
- Warlock: Leg Armor with 56 discipline and 56 strength
- Warlock: Chest Armor with 61 discipline and 61 strength
- Hunter: Leg Armor with 56 discipline and 56 strength
- Hunter: Chest Armor with 61 discipline and 61 strength
You can buy the armor pieces starting from Iron Banner Rank 3. They cost 25 Legendary Marks.
The Silver Terror – Machine Gun
From Iron Banner Rank 4 and for 50 Marks, you can obtain the machine gun The Silver Terror (with Solar Damage) from Efrideet. You can also randomly acquire this weapon by playing Iron Banner matches – then it comes with random perks.
This is the fixed roll at Efrideet:
You can choose between Aggressive Ballistics, Improved Ballistics, and Linear Compensator.
You have the choice between:
- Perfect Balance: Lower recoil
- Reinforced Frame: Increased stability, reduced magazine size
Choice between:
- Fixed Draw: Weapon can be drawn faster
- Field Scout: Increased ammo capacity
Choice between:
- Rangefinder: Aiming increases the effective range
- One-Man Army: Quick kills without assists reduce melee and grenade cooldowns
The Silver Terror is a top weapon for PvP. It is consistently among the top ranks of kills in the Crucible. If this machine gun does not drop with a roll that you like, you can definitely strike here at Efrideet. A stability perk, more ammo, and rangefinder provide an excellent combination.
The Clever Dragon – Pulse Rifle
When you reach the maximum Iron Banner Rank 5, Efrideet offers you the pulse rifle The Clever Dragon. It costs 50 Legendary Marks. This is the roll:
As a sight, there is Iron Red Dot, Iron Warrior Sight, and Iron Range Scope.
You have the choice between:
- Smallbore: Increased range and stability, slower reload, reduced magazine size
- Oiled Frame: Faster reload, reduced range
Choice between:
- Lightweight: +2 character agility
- Large Caliber Rounds: Knockback targets, harder to handle
Choice between:
- Counterbalance: Stability increased
- Feeding Frenzy: Kills briefly increase reload speed
The Clever Dragon was once an outstanding weapon in PvP, until it was heavily nerfed in February 2017. Now “The Nerfed Dragon” is no longer a top-tier weapon, and this perk combination is just mediocre. The once feared effect of large caliber rounds was also reduced for pulse rifles. No purchase recommendation.
Good luck in the Iron Banner, Guardians!
