I would very much like to see the ability to create item "sets" in DNDbeyond. A set of 3 (for example) items that can all be keyed to one or more bonuses that are only active when all 3 items are equiped or attuned.
A simple example:
Iron Longsword Iron Shield Iron Half Plate
If all three items from the "iron" set are equiped (or attuned), the character receives an +1 bonus to AC, or +10 HP, or some other relevant bonus.
Obviously this is a pretty heavy request since it would involve a number of changes to the item catalogue - as well as as several new tables for the variable bonuses, and then of course making them accessible to the user via the homebrew creations tool...
I think 3 is the magic number since D&D only allows for 3 items to be attuned at a time.

But hey, nothing worth doing is easy right?
Maybe add a Wondrous Item, that only activates if equipping the other three items.
Not that there's anything wrong with being video-gamey, but I get enough of that trying to collect sets and legendary items in Diablo. I don't need it in D&D.

I think the main reason this is unlikely to occur is that sets giving bonus is not a rule within 5e D&D.
DND Beyond only have mechanics that are part of the rule set.

No. It's too video-gamey.
