Destiny 2 players can experiment with their builds and loadouts, and mix and match the various components to customize their characters as they please. For weapons, this means toying with loadouts to use guns that work better in specific scenarios or swapping them around to use Exotics in other slots, often trying to optimize the choices based on the mods used. When it comes to armor, however, Destiny 2 has a different approach to how it can be mixed with other pieces, as players have six stats to take into consideration when building their characters.
