Yesterday, when Shadowkeep went live, Bungie released the complete list of patch notes for the Update 2.6.0.1. Below, you can see every Armor Changes that Shadowkeep has brought.
Armor Changes in Shadowkeep
Character Stats
- Discipline, Intellect, and Strength stats return from the original Destiny game
- Your Discipline determines your grenade recharge rate
- Your Intellect determines you super recharge rate
- All stats now go from 0 to 100
- Your Strength determines your melee ability recharge rate
- For Discipline, Intellect, and Strength, a stat of 30 is the equivalent recharge rate to the pre-Shadowkeep recharge rate with no mods affecting that recharge rate applied
- A stat of 100 is the equivalent of having 5 of the appropriate recharge rate-affecting mod applied
- Each piece of armor now provides you with contributions to each of your six stats
- Armor that drops in the world, from engrams, and activity rewards have randomized stats
Armor 2.0
- All exotic and legendary armor will drop to use the new armor system

- Armor mods are no longer consumable, and are instead unlocked and resuable across all applicable armor pieces once acquired
