Introduction

Armor is meant as a defense but it is not meant to make you invincible. When making armor, keep in mind the average levels of damage that occur in Minecraft. For the most part, you shouldn’t need more protection than Diamond armor, but there are some cases in which it can be nice to have more protection. Furthermore you can do things such as being able to walk through lava, turn water into ice when walking over it, and even gain the ability to fly just by wearing the armor.
