Hardcore Armor provides craftable armor sets based on metal ingots and gems found in the Hardcore Ore mod.
This mod will allow you to craft early game armor such as Wood Helmet, Wood Chestplate, Wood Leggings, and Wood Boots. Currently there are 23 materials supported that can be used to craft armor sets. The configuration allows you to disable any armor material that you do not need.
Hardcore Ore is optional but recommended as this is an add-on mod
I also finished Tinker Construct support. You can now make armor using the Tinkers Smeltery.
