About Armor Set Bonuses
From ModrinthAdds bonuses for armor sets, and is fully customizable
About
Armor Set bonusess adds highly configurable armor sets to the game. When armor is equipped in a specific combination you will gain specific bonuses. This mod is perfect for modpack creators looking to further improve loadouts and gameplay.
The configuration options allow you to create any sort of armor set bonus, with any armor you want? Want to mix and match? Go for it! Want to have a bonus that gives 20 hearts? Sure why not (but you'll have to configure it)!
This mod works by reading JSON config files from the config/armor sets directory. When you first launch the mod, the directory will be created with some default sets.
Ingame, you can identify if a piece of equipment is a part of an armor set by looking at its tooltip.
