Armors Effects Plus
by oskiever_yt
Armors Effects Plus attaches a bonus to each armor type in the game, active only while every piece of that type is worn.
What it does
Each vanilla armor set gets special effects of its own. A player gains the bonus only while wearing every piece of one armor type, and the effect ends the moment any single piece is taken off. The bonuses come with strengths and drawbacks, so a set is meant to be weighed against the others rather than used everywhere. The mod includes commands for setting up and checking the effects.
The mod runs on the server, so players who join it need nothing installed. Files are published for Fabric only, and the latest build, 1.1.0, targets 1.21.11. The project is released under the MIT License and its source code is public.
Key features
Unique set bonuses
Every vanilla armor set carries a bonus of its own, distinct from the bonuses on the other sets.
Full-set requirement
A bonus applies only when all pieces of one armor type are worn, and it disappears as soon as one piece comes off.
Piglin protection
Wearing the set keeps Piglins from attacking, even when the player strikes first, and Piglin Brutes within 5 blocks die automatically.
Spiked and storm effects
Mobs that touch the wearer take 1 heart of damage per second, and a hit on a mob has a 5% chance to call lightning, while a 1% chance strikes three bolts at once.
Heavier hits and drawbacks
Some sets deal 50% more damage or take increased fall damage, trading defense for offense.
Poison removal and commands
Some sets remove poison from the wearer, and commands are included for configuring the effects.

How it compares
Status Effects Plus is a Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt mod released under the MIT License, published for 1.21.4 – 1.21.11, and it is server required with the client optional. Extra Enchants is server-side only, released under the MIT License and built for 1.21.5 – 1.21.11, so it adds enchantments rather than armor set bonuses.
