Broken Armor HUD is a lightweight client-side Minecraft mod that improves how armor durability is displayed and understood during gameplay.

Instead of relying only on the default durability bar, this mod adds a clear and enhanced HUD overlay that shows each armor piece with its exact durability value in real time. It is designed to help players quickly understand their armor condition without opening the inventory.

Features

Displays armor pieces directly on the HUD
Shows exact durability in current / max format
Color-coded durability (green → yellow → red)
Smooth visual shake effect when armor is heavily damaged
Low durability warning behavior for better awareness
Fully client-side (works on servers without requiring installation)

Gameplay Improvement

This mod is focused on improving PvE and survival gameplay by giving players better visual feedback about their equipment. It is especially useful during combat, boss fights, caves, and long survival sessions where armor durability matters the most.

Lightweight & Compatible

Broken Armor HUD is designed to be lightweight and does not significantly affect performance. It runs entirely on the client side and does not change vanilla combat mechanics, ensuring full compatibility with most mods.

Note

This mod does not give any gameplay advantage beyond visual information. It simply enhances the user interface for better awareness and quality of life.
