Vanilla+ Armor

Add special properties to each armor type just like netherite doesn't burn in lava, now chainmail armor can stop projectiles and other armor types have their own specific trait.

Vanilla Plus Armor Mod

A standalone Minecraft Fabric mod managed by the PCKR Engine that infuses vanilla armor sets with unique, balanced, utility-focused passive effects.


Features

  • Chainmail Buff: Grants 100% projectile protection when wearing a full set of Chainmail armor. (Note: poison tipped arrows or custom arrow effects still apply, imitating real life).
  • Turtle Shell Buff: Grants 50% drowning damage reduction when wearing a Turtle Shell helmet.
  • Iron Armor Buff: Grants 20% fall damage reduction and 15% sword damage protection when wearing a full set of Iron armor.
  • Diamond Armor Buff: Grants 50% duration reduction for all harmful effects/potions (Poison, Wither, Slowness, etc.) when wearing a full set of Diamond armor.

In-Game Configuration Screen

Open the standard Minecraft Options menu and click the PCKR Engine button next to "Done" to open the dashboard. Under the Vanilla Plus Armor section, click "Expand" to configure each setting:

Option ID Type Default Description
enabled Boolean true Master enable toggle for the mod.
