Effective Gear

26.2 - 1.1.0

New Features

• Added a new armor trim material: Prismarine shard.
• Wearing a full set of armor trimmed with the same pattern (regardless of material) now grants its own bonus, as long as it's worn. Patterns marked ⚡ have an active ability triggered with the new "Use Trim Ability" key (set it in Controls) — a shared key, since you can only be wearing one such pattern's full set at a time:
  • Bolt ⚡ — while sprinting, press the ability key to burst forward, then wait out a short cooldown before dashing again
  • Coast — swim and mine underwater as though you have Aqua Affinity; if your helmet already has real Aqua Affinity, you also stop losing mining speed while off the ground
  • Dune — melee attacks also weaken your target
  • Eye — deal extra damage to endermen
  • Flow ⚡ — while airborne, press the ability key to get a boost upward, once per jump, with a short cooldown
  • Host — a discount when trading with villagers, stacking with the emerald material bonus
  • Raiser — deal extra damage to undead mobs
  • Rib — immune to the wither effect
  • Sentry — deal extra damage to pillagers, whether in melee or at range
  • Shaper — reach a little farther, for both blocks and entities
  • Silence — breaking a block while sneaking won't alert nearby sculk sensors
  • Snout — hoglins and piglin brutes leave you alone
  • Spire — immune to levitation
  • Tide — immune to mining fatigue
  • Vex — partial resistance to Evoker Fangs and Vex attacks
  • Ward — extra partial resistance to a warden's sonic boom, stacking with the echo shard material bonus
  • Wayfinder — any mount you're riding gets a small speed boost, stacking with potion effects
  • Wild — immune to poison
• Wearing a full set of armor trimmed with prismarine shard grants partial resistance to a guardian's or elder guardian's laser attack.

Changes

• The full copper armor trim bonus no longer grants immunity to lightning strikes. Instead, a channeling trident can summon lightning even when it isn't storming.
• Rebalanced sonic boom resistance: the full echo shard material bonus alone is now a 25% reduction (down from 75%), and the new full Ward pattern bonus alone is a 50% reduction. Wearing both stacks to the same 75% reduction echo shard used to grant by itself.
