The set bonus of Orichalcum armor.

Orichalcum armor is a Hardmode armor set consisting of the Orichalcum Breastplate and Orichalcum Leggings, as well as three different headpieces: the Orichalcum Mask, Orichalcum Helmet, and Orichalcum Headgear, providing bonuses for the melee, ranged, and magic damage type respectively. Crafting a full set with one headpiece requires a total of 54 Orichalcum Bars (216 Orichalcum Ore). Crafting all five pieces requires a total of 78 Orichalcum Bars (312 Orichalcum Ore).

Its alternate ore counterpart is the Mythril armor.

The full set grants the following effects while equipped:

  • Upon enemy hits, a flower petal is summoned at the edge of the screen and is shot towards the target, moving to the other end of the screen and damaging every enemy along the way. The petal deals 36 damage[1]. Petals travel very fast (123 mph[1]) and can pass through blocks and liquids. There is a cooldown of 0.33 seconds before another flower petal can be summoned,[1] meaning that this set bonus adds roughly 100 DPS.

Violet Dye
  • To color-match items to Orichalcum armor, use Violet Dye instead of Pink Dye.
  • Orichalcum armor's set bonus is powerful against worm enemies such as Wyverns or The Destroyer, as the petals will hit all of their segments if they enter at a certain angle.
  • This armor is effective with high fire-rate weapons such as the Clockwork Assault Rifle, which can trigger the set bonus constantly.

Trivia

  • Orichalcum is a metal mentioned in ancient writings, but its nature and means of creation is lost to history, leaving it known only by name. It is frequently used in fantasy works as a material more valuable than real-world metals, but there is little consistency regarding its properties in popular culture.
