Destiny: Here’s how Iron Banner has been improved by the April update

Destiny‘s April Update has brought a bunch of changes to the upcoming Iron Banner PvP event.

Here’s what’s changed since last time:

  • Lord Saladin’s inventory has been updated with items at Ranks 3-5, some with re-rolled perks
  • Rank package rewards have been adjusted:
  • Increased Rank 3 package Artifact to 320 Light
  • Increased Rank 5 package Ghost to 320 Light
  • Rank 5 packages can now reward items from the current event
  • Iron Banner Armor and Weapons can now be earned at Rank 0 at the end-of-activity
  • Removed Legendary Engrams from the possible end-of-activity rewards list, creating a greater chance to receive Iron Banner specific items
  • “Iron Domination” daily bounty now requires completing a match with a personal score of 1500 instead of winning a match with 2500
  • “Iron Versatility” bounty now only requires 7 Heavy Weapon kills to complete
  • Fixed an issue where players below Rank 5 could roll a reward they were ineligible for, resulting in no reward being given
  • Fixed an issue where the Iron Banner ship was missing a part of its frame

The next Iron Banner starts on 27 April. It runs until 3 May.
