Destiny 2 Players Speed-Farm Tier 5 Destination Armor Sets

With Destiny 2’s player base continuing to rally around fresh update content, a new community-discovered farming route is helping Guardians move faster through the game’s latest armor additions. Players have now identified a quick way to farm Tier 5 destination armor sets tied to the Monument of Triumph update—largely by leaning on Master Lost Sectors.

Monument of Triumph update fuels a new armor chase

Destiny 2’s Monument of Triumph update arrived recently and has brought a large batch of new additions alongside quality-of-life changes, which has helped keep momentum high with the community. While Sony and Bungie have not publicly weighed in on the player efforts and ongoing discussions around Destiny 2’s future, fans have remained active—both in-game and online.

As part of the broader community activity, players have also highlighted support-driven milestones following the update’s release, including a surge in concurrent players reported by the community. The same wave of engagement has extended into practical gameplay: Guardians are now using an efficient method to target the newest and reworked armor sets now appearing as Tier 5 drops.

Master Lost Sectors: the fast path to Tier 5 destination sets

According to YouTuber and content creator Duddits 2, the most efficient approach for collecting all the new and reworked armor sets as Tier 5 is to farm Lost Sectors. These activities can be cleared quickly and consistently, with Tier 5 weapons and armor sets dropping regularly. For armor sets specifically, players can obtain the location-based pieces by running the corresponding Lost Sector on the correct destination.

To make the method work, Lost Sectors must be set to Master difficulty. Runs can be done solo or with a fireteam capped at three players, giving flexibility for different playstyles and schedules.

However, not every new set is covered by Lost Sectors alone. Some sets remain locked behind other endgame activities such as Raids, Dungeons, or competitive playlists like Crucible and Vanguard Ops.

Which Tier 5 destination sets are covered—and what’s still separate

This farming method focuses on destination-based sets from each planet included in the Monument of Triumph update. The destination armor sets listed by the community include:

Wildwood (EDZ), Seventh Seraph (Cosmodrome), Exodus Down (Nessus), Reverie Dawn (Dreaming City), Dreambane (Moon), Crystocrene (Europa), Veritas (Savathûn’s Throne World), Thunderhead (Neomuna), and First Ascent (Pale Heart).

Some armor sets are obtained through other routes rather than Master Lost Sectors. The source notes that certain destination sets require playing the game to unlock them, and it also points to additional acquisition paths for specific sets—such as purchasing Solstice Armor tied to the Lustrous set via Legendary Marks at the Tenet of Bravery sculpture. Separately, Xur’s weekly inventory is described as including the Swordmaster armor set, with the vendor located in the Tower’s Bazaar during the referenced week.

Beyond armor, the update’s new set bonuses and Exotic catalysts have already had a noticeable impact on build options, reshaping what players consider effective. The community also continues to push for a possible continuation of the franchise, including a Destiny 3 petition nearing a large signature count.

Key points

• Set Lost Sectors to Master difficulty to target Tier 5 drops reliably.
• Farm solo or in fireteams of up to three for faster, repeatable runs.
• Lost Sectors cover destination-based armor sets by location, but not all sets.
• Some armor still requires Raids, Dungeons, Crucible, Vanguard Ops, or other unlock paths.

Expert View

This kind of “route discovery” is a strong signal for Destiny 2’s long-term live-service health: when a content drop includes meaningful gear progression, players quickly translate that into efficient farming loops. It also suggests the competitive scene may see more build experimentation—since the update’s armor set bonuses and Exotic catalysts are already shifting what players run—while the community’s continued push for franchise continuation highlights how closely engagement, gear incentives, and player messaging now intertwine.
