Ryleu Armor Tweaks Mod (1.21.8, 1.20.1) – Makes Armor Protection & Toughness Configurable
Certain enchantments on certain armor tiers make players overpowered. For example, it is very difficult to PvP against a player equipped with a full Protection enchanted Netherite armor set. Ryleu Armor Tweaks Mod is here to make things a lot more balanced. This mod makes certain tweaks to the combat mechanics in the game to make combat a lot more fair and enjoyable. A list of tweaks, as noted by the developer, is listed below.
Features:
- Make the max damage reduction by armor points configurable
- Make the damage reduction provided by protection configurable
- Provide a few alternate ways of handling toughness
- Remove armor caps. Total armor or protection point values above 20 will bypass the configured limits.
