Armor



=Npc Armor= In survival mode, some zombies and skeletons wear armor.

The amount of armor zombies and skeletons wear can vary from mob to mob.

The two pieces of armor is a chest armor and a helmet, currently they are said to do difference, but may not. The most common armor is only a chest armor or a helmet, a full set is more rare, even though armor is merely for aesthetic purposes and not for extra protection.

=Player Armor= As of February 18th, helmets, chest plates, leggings, and boots are now craftable by players out of leather, iron, gold or diamond in indev and infdev.

As of version 1.0.8, cloth can no longer be crafted into armor in alpha. The lowest tier of armor is now made from leather.

This armor prevents all damage dealt to the player, including falling, drowning and fire based damage. Every time the player takes damage the Armor loses durability, and its protective capabilities quickly diminish as it loses durability.

Materials such as diamond makes a strong armor that withstands quite a bit of punishment, while leather armor barely survives 20 hits.

Chain mail armor can also be hacked into the game, or crafted with hacked fire blocks. It has the same durability as gold armor.
