This data pack adds armored versions of harnesses for happy ghasts. This makes them better for pvp combat and reduces accidental ghast deaths.
There are three tiers of armor:
- Iron harness, crafted with a harness and 8 iron ingots. Gives your ghast 15 armor points.
- Diamond harness, crafted with a harness and 8 diamonds. Gives your ghast 20 armor points.
- Netherite harness, crafted with a harness, 1 netherite ingot, and a netherite upgrade in a smithing table. Gives 25 armor points and has protection 20, making your ghast almost invincible.
There is no visual indicator when a ghast has armor, except netherite armor which has the enchantment glint.
This data pack may conflict with other data packs that add harness enchantments.
