No Armor Hardcore
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.21–24.x. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
This mod/datapack adds features inspired by the No Armor Hardcore series.
Features
No Armor
- All 7 armor sets (and turtle helmets) are uncraftable and unwearable.
No Regen
- Natural health regeneration is disabled, so damage doesn't heal back.
- You can only regen health artificially using suspicious stew, potions, golden apples, totems, beacons, or axolotls.
No death and advancement messages
- Death messages and advancement messages are disabled so player deaths and advancements don't get announced in chat.
- When a player dies, all players hear a global thunder sound effect.
Hardcore
- The game is set to hard mode.
- On death, the player is set to spectator mode and immediately respawns.
