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.

Zombies/Skeletons wearing full sets of armor are considered "Boss" enemies, have more health and do much more damage.

=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.

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 the armor's protective capabilities quickly diminish as the armor loses durability.

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

Armor Will prevent a creeper from one-shotting you in a close range explosion
