How Damage Reduction Works

🛡️ Armor Points

Armor provides basic damage reduction:

  • Each armor point reduces damage by 4%
  • Maximum 20 armor points (80% reduction)
  • Different materials provide different protection
Armor Formula:
Damage Reduction = min(20, max(armor/5, armor - damage/2 + 1)) / 25

💎 Armor Toughness

Toughness reduces damage from strong attacks:

  • Only diamond and netherite armor have toughness
  • Diamond: 2 toughness per piece
  • Netherite: 3 toughness per piece
  • More effective against high damage

✨ Protection Enchantments

Enchantments provide additional protection:

  • Protection: 4% per level (all damage)
  • Specific protections: 8% per level (specific damage)
  • Maximum 20 enchantment points
  • Applied after armor reduction

🧪 Resistance Effect

Status effect that reduces all damage:

  • Each level reduces damage by 20%
  • Level V+ provides complete immunity
  • Applied after all other reductions
  • Stacks multiplicatively
