Destiny 2 Armor Set Bonuses: Every Raid and Dungeon Set Explained
Destiny 2 armor set bonuses are perks you get for wearing two or four matching pieces of a raid, dungeon or Portal armor set. Two pieces unlock the first perk, four unlock the second. There is no bonus at five, because Bungie expects most builds to wear an Exotic.
Raid and dungeon sets cost $30 a piece or $129 for the full class set with us. Below is every raid set and the main dungeon sets, with both perks in plain words.

Browse armor sets Tier-5 Armor FarmHow set bonuses work
A set bonus counts only matching pieces of the same set. Two pieces give perk one, four give perk two. Bungie built it so you can commit to one set or split the slots across two sets: Bungie, Next Generation Armor.
Since Monument of Triumph every raid and dungeon drops Tiered armor with its own set bonus. Older versions with the same name and a raid mod slot do not carry the bonus, so check that your pieces are the tiered ones.
Tier matters too. Standard encounters in the weekly featured raid drop Tier 5 armor. Outside the featured rotation Standard drops Tier 3.
