Armor Guide

MineFantasy overhauls Minecraft's armor system, adding in light, medium, heavy, and plate armors, all with their own advantages and disadvantages.

Armor Classes

 * Light - Light armors offer less protection than heavier armors, but they don't slow the player or affect their swimming. Light armors also allow the player to move silently past any enemies who can't see them.
 * Medium - Medium armors offer protection, and only slightly slows the player.
 * Heavy - Heavy armor offers good protection, but slows the player more than medium armor and greatly debilitates the player's swimming abilities. It also makes the player starve faster.
 * Plate - For extreme protection and damage absorbtion, the player must sacrifice its ability to sprint, or move faster than a crawl. It also makes the player starve at a much faster rate and it is very difficult to swim in.
