Will Armor – Archangel's Vestments

A Minecraft mod that brings a majestic Archangel armor set to life – with fully custom 3D models, animated wings, and powerful combat & mobility mechanics. Become a celestial warrior!

About

Will Armor adds a complete, beautifully detailed armor set inspired by archangels. Every piece features its own custom 3D model (powered by GeckoLib), and the chestplate includes animated, flapping wings that react to your movement. The mod is designed for both visual appeal and meaningful gameplay – you can fly without creative mode, gain significant survivability bonuses, and unleash a temporary rage ability.

Two new craftable artifacts are also included: Sacred Wings and Sacred Halo – they can be used as decorative accessories or equipped if your modpack supports accessory slots (e.g., Curios/Trinkets).

Features

Armor Set & Full Set Bonuses

When you wear all four pieces (helmet, chestplate, leggings, boots), you receive:

+15 Health (7.5 extra hearts) – greatly increased durability
Regeneration I – constant health recovery over time
Resistance I – reduces incoming damage
Unlimited Flight – fly freely in any dimension without needing creative mode or elytra gliding (works like creative flight, but balanced for survival)
Speed II While Flying – move noticeably faster in the air

Artifacts

Sacred Wings – decorative/accessory item with a custom model
Sacred Halo – decorative/accessory item with a glowing effect

Both are craftable using materials found in the vanilla game (recipes are visible in JEI/REI).

Enraged Mode

Press the Y key (configurable) to activate a two-phase rage ability:

Phase 1 (10 seconds): You are inflicted with Blindness and Weakness – a moment of vulnerability before the power surge.
Phase 2 (45 seconds): You gain Strength, Resistance, and Absorption – turning you into a formidable force.
Cooldown: 300 seconds (5 minutes) after the effect ends.

This adds a risk-reward dynamic: survive the initial debuff to unleash devastating power.

FAQ

Q: Does the flight work in the Nether/End?
A: Yes, unlimited flight works in all dimensions.
