Usage

Armor

The copper chestplate gives 4 armor and has 200 durability (vanilla: 176). The iron chestplate gives 6, and the golden one 5.

Warding

Copper armor protects undead from Warding. While any non-player entity wearing at least one piece of plain copper armor (not shakudo or hepatizon) is within warding range, warding at levels 1 to 3 targets that entity instead, deals no damage and does not slow it. Only level 4 warding, from the full electrum set bonus, pierces this and damages the wearer. Warding stones ignore copper armor entirely.

Repairing

It can be repaired in an anvil with copper ingots. As with all equipment in the pack, the repair cost never grows, so it can be repaired indefinitely; see Repairing.

History

1.10	Undead wearing copper armor became immune to Warding.
1.12.2	Warding now targets copper-wearing mobs (and armor stands) before other undead, so copper armor draws warding away from nearby undead.
