Sage Protector FAQ
How do I get the Sage Protector armor set in Destiny 2?
Sage Protector drops from Equilibrium. Collect four of the five pieces to unlock the full set bonus.
How many pieces do I need for the set bonus?
Two pieces switch on the 2-piece perk and four pieces switch on the stronger 4-piece perk. Any combination of slots counts, so you can run four pieces of the set plus an exotic in your fifth slot without breaking the bonus.
Does Sage Protector work in PvP?
Yes. Sage Protector has bonuses whose effects apply against other Guardians, so it carries into the Crucible, not just PvE.
What is the best artifact for a Sage Protector build?
Sage Protector pairs best with the Encrypted Data Disk artifact this season, since both lean into swords. See the artifact mods page for the exact perks to run.
