Set Composition

Star Iron armor is built from Star Iron ingot-heavy shapeless recipes and tied to both station and Forge throughput planning.

  • Helm, chest, leggings, and boots are separate recipes.
  • Every piece grants incremental incoming damage reduction while worn together.
  • Star Iron pieces are currently deployed as leather_helmet/chestplate/leggings/boots variants dyed to Color.fromRGB(29,43,55) for a distinct worn silhouette, with armor and toughness attribute modifiers.
  • Warding materials in the chain keep progression anchored around Forge output stability.

Damage Reduction

The listener applies diminishing-damage scaling to the player before most other reductions.

  • 1 piece reduces incoming damage by 5%.
  • 2 pieces reduces incoming damage by 10%.
  • 3 pieces reduces incoming damage by 15%.
  • 4 pieces reduces incoming damage by 22% and adds Resistance I for 3 seconds.

Role Use

Star Iron armor supports defender-heavy event windows and prolonged boss fights where repeated hits matter more than burst.

  • Useful while tanking boss adds and late pressure lanes.
  • Complements Citadel Shields and guard station work for structure defense nights.

Practical Checklist

  • Read the summary, then verify the live map for current server state.
  • Use related dossiers to follow the gameplay dependency chain.
