Shadow armor

Shadow Armor consists of a Shadow Helmet, Shadow Scalemail and Shadow Greaves.

A full set grants a basic 19 defense, and a 15% increase in melee attack speed.

If the full suit is worn, the player leaves an afterimage while running and emits shadow particles while standing still. Also, when wearing a full set, the Rocket Boots will have purple flames.

It takes a total of 60 Demonite Bars and 45 Shadow Scales to craft a full suit of Shadow Armor. Until the 1.0.5 update, a piece of Shadow Armor was also dropped when the Eater of Worlds was defeated.

Development
During Alpha, Shadow Armor was made at a Demon Altar.
