About

Destiny Loadout Builder is a free, open-source web tool for planning optimized Destiny 2 loadouts. Choose stat tiers, subclass options, and armor mods, and it searches for armor pieces and mods that fit. Subclass selection covers all parts, including fragments that do not affect stats. The builder accounts for armor-mod energy costs when checking whether a chosen set of stat tiers is attainable. Loadouts can be saved to Destiny Item Manager (DIM), and shared builds adjust their stat tiers to what each recipient can reach, dropping lower-priority tiers when needed. A Loadout Analyzer checks in-game and DIM loadouts for possible improvements, such as higher stat tiers from changing armor pieces. There are two boundaries: the site cannot equip artifact selections because the Destiny API does not let third-party tools change a user's artifact, and it does not create in-game loadouts. Local development requires a Bungie third-party developer app; a DIM API key is optional for developing DIM integration features.

Who it is for

It suits Destiny 2 players who want to optimize armor and stat tiers, then save or share builds through DIM. Developers working locally need a Bungie third-party developer app; a DIM API key is optional for DIM integration work.

What is good

  • Free to use and open source.
  • Accounts for armor-mod energy costs.
  • Saves created loadouts in DIM.
  • Shared builds adapt to recipients’ achievable stat tiers.
  • Analyzer checks in-game and DIM loadouts.

What to know first

  • Cannot equip artifact selections.
  • Does not create in-game loadouts.
  • Local development requires a Bungie developer app.

Verdict

Destiny Loadout Builder covers stat-tier planning, mod costs, loadout sharing, and DIM integration in a free web tool. Its limits around artifact selections and in-game loadout creation matter if those actions are part of your workflow.
