Armor pieces (Helmet, Gauntlets, Chest Armor, Leg Armor, Class Item) contribute to your Light Level and provide stat bonuses. The three main stats are Intellect (reduces Super cooldown), Discipline (reduces Grenade cooldown), and Strength (reduces Melee cooldown). Aim for a balanced distribution or prioritize stats that align with your subclass and playstyle. For example, a Defender Titan might prioritize Intellect and Discipline for more Ward of Dawn and grenades. Armor also comes with perks that can enhance weapon handling, reload speed, or provide extra ammo. Look for armor with perks that benefit your preferred weapon types. Legendary and Exotic armor pieces often have unique perks that can significantly impact your build. Always consider the Light Level of your armor, as it directly affects your overall power.
