Palladium armor is a Hardmode armor set crafted from Palladium Bars and is the alternative to Cobalt armor.

The set consists of the Palladium Breastplate and Palladium Leggings, as well as three different headpiece variants: the Palladium Mask, Palladium Helmet, and Palladium Headgear, geared towards melee, ranged, and magic damage respectively.

With the full set equipped, hitting an enemy grants the Rapid Healing buff, which heals (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) 2 / (Old-gen console and 3DS versions) 3 health per second. This lasts for 5 seconds, but can be canceled at any time by right-clicking the icon (Desktop version), by selecting the icon using Cycle Next/Previous Buff and then pressing Remove Buff (Console version), by selecting the icon and canceling it in the equipment menu (Old-gen console version), by double-tapping the buff icon (Mobile version), or by canceling the buff from the buffs screen (Nintendo 3DS version). Further attacks will refresh the duration. The buff is not canceled if the armor is removed.

Crafting a one-headpiece set requires 54 Palladium Bars, or 162 Palladium Ore. Crafting all five pieces requires 78 Palladium Bars, or 234 Palladium Ore.

Notes

  • The set bonus allows regeneration while afflicted with the Bleeding debuff.
  • The buff can be triggered with the player's minions' attacks, and can be triggered when attacking critters or Target Dummies.

Tips

  • While not the largest or quickest heal, it can be useful for the beginning of Hardmode, especially when used with ranged weapons, to safely regenerate from a distance.
  • In comparison to the melee version of Adamantite armor, the melee Palladium armor is still valuable. It grants 18 less defense than the Adamantite armor, so the player will take 9 / 14 / 18 more damage. Therefore, as long as they get hit less often than every 4.5 / 7 / 9 seconds (the time needed to heal the damage the Adamantite armor would have prevented), the player's survivability is greater with Palladium armor.
  • The Squire armor(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) can be considered an upgrade to Palladium armor, as the Squire's Great Helm provides a constant 2 HP/sec regeneration. Later on, the Valhalla Knight armor's breastplate provides 4 HP/sec regeneration.
  • The Rapid Healing buff stacks additively with the Life Drain's buff.
