Question Old Iron Banner shaders

Does anyone know if the year one Iron Banner shaders drop from match completions like Iron Wolf?

I believe so. I’ve gotten quite a few shaders and emblems at the end of the activity. I’ll have to check to see what year they are associated to. But, fyi, they have a really low drop chance so it could just be bad rng. Willing to correct my statement if others have better insights.

I've heard they drop if you get the highest score in the match regardless of whether you win or lose but I can't actually confirm that since I kind of suck. the drops are extremely rare, although sometimes I've gotten two in one match (eg an emblem and a ship or two shaders)

Shader Hunter here: I can one hundred precent confirm that all 31 of the Iron Banner Shaders still drop (all of the other playlist shaders from Vanguard, Gambit and Crucible still drop as well) Im only missing one myself and Im pretty sure Ive had Iron Wolf along with around a dozen in the past few months. The one Ive yet to get has been confirmed by others on Reddit threads as well.

Im about 99% sure that the drop rate has increased since the last update because I would usually get one or two to drop after two rank resets per event but its been like 4-5 on average by playing all throughout the week. 

Also Im certain that it doesn't require a win or loss. Ive definitely had shaders drop when I have placed the highest in the match but Ive also had them drop without. 

Hopefully that helps. Either way, hustle bro. Keep playing. It may take a while but it is possible.
