MoreDefaultArmor
by ezTxmMC
MoreDefaultArmor adds armor sets made from the game's standard building materials, such as dirt, oak log, cobblestone and granite, to Minecraft Java Edition.
What it does
Each new set takes one of the familiar block materials and turns it into a full suit of armor, so a player can equip a rustic oak set or a cobblestone set alongside the vanilla iron, gold and diamond options. The sets are meant to widen the choice of protection and appearance without changing how the default armor works.
The mod is a Fabric API dependency that must be present for it to run, and it works on both the client and the server, so the server and every player need it. Files cover Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 1.20.1, and the code is open source under the MIT License. The latest build is labeled alpha, so the number of armor types is still limited.
Key features
Armor from block materials
Armor sets are crafted from standard materials like oak log, cobblestone, andesite, diorite and granite.
Deepslate variant
A cobbled deepslate armor set is included alongside the stone-based sets.
Varied protection levels
Different materials give players a range of protection levels to match their play style and the threats they face.
Custom armor combinations
Pieces from different sets can be mixed, letting players build a look or a protection balance that suits them.
