[toc] Creating builds is one of the most rewarding parts of Destiny 2’s endgame, be it for PvE or PvP. When you manage to combine the right weapons, armor mods, and playstyle that result in a “good build”, everything comes together in a way that makes you feel stronger than you’ve ever been.
Armor mods play a crucial part in the build-crafting process. And while the entire system is still complex and intimidating, it is much more accessible than it used to be. To help you get started with builds (or go even further), this table covers all Armor mods and includes crucial information that will help you more easily create lethal builds.

How to get Armor Mods in 2022
Mods can be purchased from Ada-1, located in the Tower. Be aware that since the release of The Witch Queen, she now offers 4 combat mods for sale per day. Every day, the mods on offer change, which means you’ll have to pay her a visit every day until she sells what you’re looking for. The cost for an Armor Mod is 10,000 Glimmer.
The best armor mods in Destiny 2 Mods
Now that we’ve covered all the Armor mods, let’s talk about the best armor mods in the game.
10. Shield Break Charge
Description: Become Charged with Light by breaking an enemy shield with the matching energy type.
Why we like it: Shield Break Charge may not sound like a lot, but it can be extremely valuable when dealing with endgame content. Endgame activities are full of shielded enemies, which is why Shield Break Charge can be so efficient at keeping your stacks of Charged with Light full.
9. Targeting Mods: For PVP
Description: Improved target acquisition, accuracy, and aim-down-sights speed for that weapon type.
Why we like it: Targeting Mods won’t make you a PVP god, but they will certainly help you land more shots. And given how most mods don’t even work in PVP, it is important to take the time and equip those that do help, including Targeting and Unflinching mods.
8. Special Finisher: For endgame PvE
Description: Finishers generate Special ammo for the whole fireteam. Requires one-third of your Super energy.
Why we like it: Allowing you to keep your Special ammo reserves topped (especially when also using Ammo Scavenger mods), Special Finisher can be a lifesaver in endgame PVE content.
7. Taking Charge: For PvE and PvP
Description: Become Charged with Light by picking up Orbs of Light.
Why we like it: Taking Charge is what will allow you to get stacks of Charged with Light most of the time, and is, therefore, a mandatory part of any Charged with Light build.
6. Radiant Light: For PvP mainly
Description: Casting your Super causes nearby allies to become Charged with Light. +20 Strength.
Why we like it: Radiant Light is a favorite among PVP players. Not only does it offer you +20 Strength, it also gives “free” Charges of Light to your Fireteam. And if you happen to run Powerful Friends (next on the list), you’ll be giving yourself a free charge too.
5. Powerful Friends: For PvP
Description: When you become Charged with Light, nearby allies also become Charged with Light, if they are not already. +20 Mobility.
Why we like it: Powerful Friends is a mandatory part of any self-respecting PVP build, especially for Hunter mains. That +20 Mobility is reason alone to always have it on you, but the fact that it allows you to easily become Charged with Light is another excellent reason to always equip it.
4. Wrath of Rasputin: For PvE
Description: Solar splash damage final blows have a chance to create Warmind Cells.
Why we like it: Warmind Cells are not as popular as they once were, mainly due to the nerf they received. Yet they remain strong and Wrath of Rasputin pairs extremely well with builds that include Solar weapons that deal explosive damage (such as Jötunn or solar rocket launchers).
3. Ammo Scavengers: For PvE and PvP
Description: Weapon gets bonus reserves when picking up ammo used by that weapon type
Why we like it: Ammo Scavengers mods are virtually mandatory for both PVE and PVP. Having these mods will greatly increase your Special or Heavy ammo reserves and result in a much higher overall DPS in PVE and a higher uptime of your Special weapon in PVP.
2. Stacks on Stacks: For PvE mainly
Description: Gain an extra stack of Charged with Light for every stack you gain. -10 Recovery.
Why we like it: Charge with Light builds can be extremely strong, provided you have a stack of Charged with Light when you most need it. This is why Stacks on Stacks is so important. It greatly increases your Charge with Light uptime without requiring a specific action from you.
1. Volatile Flow: For PvE
Description: Picking up a Void elemental well grants your Void weapons Volatile rounds.
Why we like it: Volatile Flow is hands down the most powerful mod this season. No wonder it’s a limited-time affair. All you have to do to enjoy infinite Void explosions is to generate Void Wells using your favorite Elemental Wells, equip a Void weapon, and shoot enemies until they explode in large groups. There is no better ad clear tool in the game right now.
Your turn
Are you using a particular build that is really working well for you? Let us know in the comments sections!
I Like the list, for the top ten mods I think ”Radiant Light” is good for PVE and PVP the 20+ Strength is really good on titans. One mod I thought would make it on the top ten would be “better already” healing just by picking up orbs of power just seem crazy good.
