If you use --no-describe it does exactly that, which is (don't describe this iSCSI device in the iBFT table) and that is what the OS uses to find, and connect to, the iSCSI device, so with that option the OS won't know what to do.
Putting this aside, is there *ANY* way i can boot to an iscsi device in UEFI mode, the way i do it in legacy bios mode (without using the no describe option)
Because... everything works perfectly that way, but it doesn't work in UEFI mode.

Are you saying that everything works in legacy pcbios mode when you are using --no-describe? I find that highly unlikely.
As I wrote above, if you add no-describe the iSCSI information isn't added to the iBFT ACPI table which is used to communicate it to the OS - as such the OS won't know about the iSCSI device, and you would have to provide that information some other way - this is most likely not what you want, so please read my reply above again and provide the relevant ipxe.org error url, thanks.
