Bungie has revealed in its latest Weekly Update that two of Destiny’s biggest multiplayer events are returning to the game this month, along with a host of changes to both modes. Iron Banner is set to return for PvP players on October 13, but it has seen significant alterations due to the fact that the levelling system in Destiny has been modified with the latest expansion pack. Players are recommended to be at a light level of 230 to play the playlist while only level 40 users will be able to lead a fireteam. Bungie has also changed how much damage is dealth according to your level, balancing out the curve to punish lower levelled player less. The rewards on offer from Iron Banner also differ now in that the drop rates have increased. This should mean that players get much more gear and weapons directly from playing rather than having to trade marks with a vendor. To top it off there have been some new bounties added that reward

A beta to allow players to communicate with other players in matchmaking events such as the Crucible and Strike missions will come with an update that is scheduled to release on November 18.

In the latest Weekly Update on the Bungie website, the developer has revealed the changes they are set to make to the Iron Banner PvP event in Destiny in the future. The most obvious modification is to how level advantages will work. Higher level players will now be able to take out lower ranked users much more easily than was previously possible, which lead designer Tyson Green described as “a much more dramatic difference between players of wide variation in Level.” Another issue that has been addressed include the mass quitting that occurred during the Iron Banner. If players lose a match but stay in until the end they will be rewarded with a special medallion that will give a reputation increase the next time the player wins a game. Some other changes include the bounties being made easier to complete, and stronger armor and weapons made available as rewards. While an exact date on when the Iron Banner would return was not provided by Bungie, they did state that
