    Ninja bag/skull gloves changes

    I think changing the ninja bag/skull gloves to allow the use of up to 4 gear set items, in conjunction with the exotics, but only allowing one item from each set.

    This could let people mess around with different 2 piece bonuses and High End pieces. It might encourage build diversity and at a stretch balance, without really changing very much?

    Why cant you do that now?

    Put you on a ninja bag, put on some skull gloves and put on 4 separate gear pieces giving you 4 2 pc bonuses to go with your skull gloves.

    The damage bonus from the skulls gloves is only applied if you have no gear set bonuses active. The ninja bag activates the two piece bonus of whatever gear set item you have on. So while yes, it is possible to do what you suggested, it would make no sense to do so since you'd be losing the bonus damage from the gloves.

    maybe ive gone ******ed today, im real tired but why not?

    NInjaBike -Wildcard for everything except Calssified Bonus and does nothing to enhance Exotics.

    So take this example
    1 pc Sentry + Ninja = 2 pc sentry
    1 pc Hunters Faith+ nija = 2 pc Hunters Faith
    1 pc PRedator = ninja = 2 PC Predator
    1 pc Striker = Ninja = 2 pc Striker
    1 Ninja Bag
    1 Skull Gloves.

    How does that not give you 4 2 pc bonuses plus Skull Gloves? And again, ive used it with many builds but i ant say ive tried this and im very tired so i may be wrong but i dont think so.

    Heh no worries, happens to the best of us.

    For what it's worth, as I was testing this out, I put on a pair of skulls gloves and literally just threw on random other pieces of gear (some classified, some not).

    Distribution wound up being about 5/6/4, with 335k DPS, 503k Toughness, 155k SP. And that's not even properly modded or anything.

    I think OP is on to something here. If I could have a build with those stats, plus a few 2-piece bonuses, I would definitely consider putting a build like that together.
