Molten armor is an armor set consisting of the Molten Helmet, Molten Breastplate, and Molten Greaves. It has the highest defense of any pre-Hardmode armor set.

A full set of Molten armor provides the following benefits:

  • +25 defense
  • +17% melee damage
  • (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) +7% melee speed
  • (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) +7% melee critical strike chance
  • (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) Immunity to the On Fire! debuff
  • If the full set is visible, it will leave a fire trail similar to that of the Meteor armor.

It takes a total of 45 Hellstone Bars to craft a full set of Molten armor, or 135 Hellstone and 45 Obsidian.

Trivia

  • When walking, the Molten Helmet and Molten Greaves appear to visually pulse in brightness on the magma-covered parts of the armor. This does not apply to the breastplate.
