I believe all the Purple sets are marked as Unique, so you can only slot one of each set in a character.

The rule of 5 applies to the value and type of the bonus, not to the sets. I don't think all the purple sets have the same bonuses so you are probably OK to slot as many as you want.

7 of the purple sets have the exact same bonuses: Hecatomb, Armageddon, Ragnarok, Unbreakable Constraint, Gravitational Anchor, Fortunata Hypnosis, and Absolute Amazement.
Recovery: 4%
Fire / Cold Resistance: 2.52%
Accuracy: 15%
Recharge: 10%
Toxic Resistance: 5%
Soulbound Allegiance and Apocalypse have four identical bonuses:
Regen: 16%, Health 3%, Damage: 4%, and Psi Defense: 5% Plus, Apocalypse also has a 10% recharge bonus.
And the last one, Coercive Persuasion, has 3 bonuses that are also shared with other sets: Recovery: 4%, Damage: 4%, Recharge: 10%.
You can slot as many purple sets as you have powers that will take them, you just won't get more than 5 of the same bonuses if they're duplicated.

Incorrect. You cannot slot more than one of each individual IO, so you can't slot 5 full sets of hetecomb or apocalypse|

However, as it's been pointed out, they share most of the same bonuses anyway.

I think Claws meant you can have as many different purple sets, not the same set repeated.

Thank you, Champion.
So the most recharge I could get outta of purples is 50%? I could only benefit from 5 of the same Ultimate(I think its called) bonuses?

Technically, it applies to the NAME of the bonus. So a "Huge Recharge Bonus" is not the same as a "Luck of the Gambler +7.5% Recharge bonus," even though they give the same 7.5% recharge bonus, because they are not technically the same 'power.'|
