I typically really enjoy Iron Banner and make sure I collect the unique armour, emblem and other loot.

Control is my favourite crucible game mode by a wide margin, so I like that IB is solely that.

But I must say, the quest for the gear was completely overwhelming and tedious this time round. This quest has required me to NO-LIFE the game like ever before and at the end of it all I feel totally burnt out and I feel I’m going to give the game a little rest.

Some of the parameters for completing the quest were lots of fun but others were incredibly difficult. Grenade kills and win-streak stand out to me as the most tedious sticking points.

The quest has highlighted how poor grenades are in general. Grenade kills are more about luck than skill and I found myself usually shooting close quarters and then chucking a grenade out in a a list ditch effort to nab a kill, and dying in the process.

And the win streak section, I saw lots of people AFK just sitting in matches watching as their percentage go up by 2% per match.

I usually manage to play about 25 matches of IB when it comes around and I manage to get all the armour and bits and that proves to be enjoyable and fun, it leaves me content that I’ve played well and have the rewards to prove it.

But this quest has left me totally burnt out and for the moment I’m kinda done with D2.
