Wow what happened to this thread!

people have differing opinions as to what opening up match making in raids would do.

Nothing major, just a good old fashioned debate

 

[Fr0dders]

Has the Iron Banner started yet?

may not go live until the patch this afternoon.

 

[kissenger]

I called it crap because it appears you're making it all up. Like i said, i made my own topic, went into the kitchen to make a drink and by the time i got back i had 2-3 party invites and around 8 people added to my friends list. We did the nightfall, then a couple more people joined and we did a raid. There was minimal effort on my part and i got people who talked and actually wanted to play.

Oh come on. Why would I (or anyone) make up something like that? I've told you my experience with trying to organise a raid. If you had a different experience and it worked out better for you then that's fine, but please don't accuse me of lying.

 

[Mr Jones]

Iron Banner is when all stats is unmolested right?

Does anyone know if the team will be balanced or would a team of hardcore 27-30 players just run riot?

 

[Fr0dders]

everybody was expecting it to be that

but people are still easily getting downed by lower rank players and finding it just as hard to down other players.

The comments on the bungie blog can't be repeated on here ....

The Iron Banner thing appears to be live now.. shame it's only for PVP as I really hate that side of things (Find it too easy to get 1-shot killed).

 

[Shamikebab]

What else would it be for except pvp?

 

[scorza]

Is Iron Banner a permanent thing or another time limited event?

 

[oddsbodikins]

Time Limited much like the Queens bounty

 

[ShakeNBake]

so, apparently hardest boss in the game is bugged:

sign me up (b4 the raid)

i guess everything 1 shots you though..?

which strike is it?

 

[Zhokel]

which strike is it?

Archon Priest on Venus.

 

[oHUTCHYo]

Anyone up for Hard Nightfall tonight then? I'll be on about 6.30-7pm.

Looks like theres a bug on this level which people have been using on strikes, which may work on the nightfall. Not that I condone it of course, I'll see just how difficult it is first before resorting to trying this...

Lucky i have solar primary

 

[Reeve]

Seriously?

I don't have the luxury of an elemental primary. The good thing is only the vex parts will require void/arc(harpies). The rest will be fire(shanks)/arc. There's also no mention of increased stagger resistance so the last boss could possibly be quite easy to burst down as he staggers with sniper headshots among other things.

 

[antijoke]

Could someone explain to me:

If the raids at the top level get harder and harder, and you have to have completed the ones previous to really stand a chance, how would one do that when they are time limited?

This is based off my understanding and what I've read online.
