The launch of theEdge of Fateexpansion forDestiny 2saw the addition of armor set effects that greatly alter how buildcrafting works in the game. These effects range from increasing damage against shields, boosting Guardian movement speed, and more.
Armor set effects are real game changers, and players will want to make their builds around these sets if they want to conquerDestiny 2’srevamped difficulties and challenges.
All Set Armor Perks in Destiny 2
Armor sets have two-piece and four-piece bonuses, giving players a nice degree of flexibility when it comes tobuilding their characters inDestiny 2. These effects will remain active for as long as players are wearing their associated armor pieces, though some effects may have pre-requisite conditions before they become useful.
