Armor (Eternal)
Armor is a set of equipable defense items that reduce damage taken from enemies and most other damage sources. Armor pieces are equipped by placing them in the armor slots of the player's inventory. 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.
Each piece of armor has a defense statistic that reduces inflicted damage by half / 3/4 its value, rounded up. For example, Iesnium armor grants a total of 21 defense, increasing the player's damage by 20%.
In addition to the defense provided by individual armor pieces, most armor types provide a Set Bonus when all three pieces of the same armor type are worn simultaneously. For example Carminite armor will increase melee damage based on the player's maximum HP.
Eternal adds 4 new armor sets. 3 sets can be obtained Pre-Hardmode, ? sets in Hardmode and 5 sets Post-Moon Lord, with some armor sets being class-specific.
