For a sortable list of raw stats on all individual armor pieces as of 1.4.4.9(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions), see Armor stat table.

Armor pieces are equipable items that provide defense and other stat boosts. Armor pieces are equipped by placing them in the armor slots of the player's inventory. Equipping a full set of the same armor type provides a set bonus for additional effects. Several armor sets have versions for each of the classes (melee, ranged, mage, and summoner), depending on which helmet is equipped.

Armor can also be placed in vanity slots to change the player's appearance without affecting stats. Armor pieces are either crafted, purchased from NPCs, or dropped from enemies.

Notes

  • The chestplate on each armor set changes with the gender of the character, with the female breastplate often having an exposed cleavage, stomach or both. This is a purely visual change.
  • (Old-gen console and 3DS versions) The ancient armor pieces are shown in the inventory to be facing to the left instead of the right.

Tips

  • The default Hardmode ore armors (Cobalt, Mythril, and Adamantite) are often mistaken as direct downgrades to the others (Palladium, Orichalcum, and Titanium). Though it is true they all have lower armor value (except for Adamantite) and do not have fancy effects, they often give better, more class-specific bonuses (e.g. Cobalt Melee Set is still the second-best melee speed armor only bested by the Adamantite Melee Set). The default Hardmode ore armors also do not require as many bars to create, making swift progression easier.
  • For most Hardmode armors with helmet variants, the helmets sell for more than other pieces of their respective sets, despite needing fewer bars to make. This is due to the helmet carrying class-specific bonuses or other special abilities. For example, the melee helmet of such sets will hold melee modifiers and a disproportionate share of defense.

Mixed armor sets

While set bonuses are a strong incentive to use a matched set, there are many cases where the powers of individual pieces can be combined usefully, especially late in the game. Particularly versatile pieces include the Valhalla Knight's Breastplate for its health regeneration. Some examples include:

  • The Turtle chest piece can be combined with the Hallowed or Chlorophyte Mask and Hallowed Greaves for massively increased melee damage, but at the cost of losing the 15% damage reduction, the Thorns effect, a bit of defense, and most of the aggro increasing effect. With the Hallowed Mask, this nets a defense of 62 (compared with 65 for the full set of Turtle armor), +18% melee damage, +18% melee critical chance, and +10% melee speed.
    • With the Chlorophyte Mask instead, the defense goes down to 58 and the melee damage bonus rises to +28%, but the melee critical chance bonus drops to +14% and the melee speed bonus is lost. Either way, the wearer gets another +7% for all damage and +8% movement speed.
    • (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) Doing this with the Valhalla Knight's Breastplate instead, gets another 3 points of defense, the regeneration, and a +30% bonus to summon damage, at the cost of some of the melee bonuses (leaving +10% or +20% damage, +10% or +6% critical chance).
  • The combination of the Chlorophyte Helmet and Shroomite Breastplate (or in the endgame, Vortex Breastplate) provides more ammo reduction than any set bonus. (See Sandgun for further discussion.)
  • (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) A regenerative melee/summoner set consisting of the Chlorophyte Mask, Valhalla Knight's Breastplate, and Valhalla Knight's Greaves provides +16% melee damage, +26% melee critical strike chance, +30% movement speed, +50% summon damage, and +4 health/second regeneration.
  • (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) For rangers, if the set bonus for Shroomite armor is not needed, the chest piece can be swapped with the Valhalla Knight's Breastplate for the regeneration.
  • (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) For magic users, Hallowed Headgear, Valhalla Knight's Breastplate, and Dark Artist's Leggings grants +100 mana capacity, +12% magic damage, +37% magic critical strike chance, +50% summon damage, and +4 health/second regeneration.
