The Collective Psyche Armor in Destiny 2 is a new set players can get from The Desert Perpetual raid. Just like the weapons and gear in The Edge of Fate, this new armor is not just about looks—it gives you real gameplay bonuses that can help in both raids and other activities. Each piece of the armor drops from certain bosses, so you’ll need to play through the raid more than once to get the full set.
Here’s our detailed guide on the Collective Psyche Armor in Destiny 2 and how to farm for the full set.
How To Farm the Collective Psyche Armor in Destiny 2

Here’s a table of the Collective Psyche Armor in Destiny 2 to help you see which boss drops which armor pieces:
Encounter Name | Psyche Armor Pieces Dropped |
---|---|
Iatros | Might drop the Collective Psyche Helmet and Chest |
Epoptes | Might drop the Collective Psyche Legs |
Koregos | Might drop the Collective Psyche Legs |
You’ll need to defeat each boss several times to collect every piece. The drops are random, so it may take a few runs. The good news is you can earn the Collective Psyche Armor in Destiny 2 for all three classes: Titan, Hunter, and Warlock.
How To Use the Collective Psyche Armor in Destiny 2
The Collective Psyche Armor in Destiny 2 comes with special set bonuses. These bonuses get better the more pieces you wear at the same time.
- Two-piece bonus (Accretion): When you have two pieces equipped, picking up an ammo brick gives you faster weapon swap and stow speeds. This effect stacks and stays active until you die, so you can keep picking up ammo to make it even better.
- Four-piece bonus (Doppler Effect): With four pieces equipped, the duration of Unravel, Suspend, Sever, Restoration, and Radiant effects is increased. This is great for builds that use these effects, especially if you play with Strand or Solar subclasses.
Tips for Farming the Collective Psyche Armor in Destiny 2
- Play the raid each week to get more chances at the armor drops.
- Focus on the encounters that drop the pieces you still need.
- Team up with friends or a clan to make the raid easier and faster.
- Remember, you can collect the set for all classes, so keep running the raid if you want the full collection.
