Crucible is balanced so that everybodys weapon and armor stats are equal. Iron banner isnt, so level and equipment are a big deal...

I have read this before but when playing the game, it doesn't add up. If Crucible were balanced, my weapons should be 1-2 hit kills also. If these weapons are so powerful in a balanced mode like Crucible, they should destroy me even more in Iron Banner but even against level 8 guys charging their pistols and firing fusion rifles etc I lived longer and killed them. Oh well, I am sure they will make it more balanced. If not lulz.

Crucible nullifies defense and sets the same damage value for each weapon class. 1-2 hit kills is all it needs because the armor defense has been removed and everyone has the same low defense, in Iron banner, level stats, defense, weapon and equipment attributes as well as the additional stats/effects of leveled up armor and weapons matter, so if you have mediocre equips and someone shoots you with a high end gun, you will die fast, where as if you shoot someone in high end armor with a mediocre gun, they wont.
Another thing I have noticed to, headshots do a range of damage based on the angle, the back of the head takes least damage and it increases the further around the head till you get to the front, with face taking highest damage.
I played crucible and iron hammer, and at first i was getting slaughtered and thought it was shit, but because i wanted the rep to buy some of the legendary gear in iron banner i stuck it out, after 10 or so matches i was holding my own and finishing ranked in the top 3 score wise.
