Dragon armor

Dragon Armor or Dragon Set is a top tier Hardmode post-Ocram melee armor /  vanity set. It consists of the Dragon Mask, Dragon Breastplate and Dragon Greaves. If the full set is visible, the player will have an afterimage, similar to Necro armor.

On the versions, a full set grants 60 defense, 20% increased melee damage, 25% increased critical strike chance, 38% increased melee speed and 35% increased movement speed. Each separate piece of Dragon armor has an 11% chance to be dropped by Ocram, or can otherwise be crafted.

On the, the set is vanity, offering no defense or bonus when equipped, and is occasionally sold by the Traveling Merchant.

Tips

 * Dragon armor is one of the best melee armor sets in the game, however it can be outclassed by Beetle or Turtle armors in certain aspects, so this can be regarded as a situational set.
 * Though it is a very effective melee set, the Turtle armor provides an extra 5 defense points, is easier to obtain, and has the Thorns set bonus, which returns all of the damage taken by melee attacks back to the attacker.
 * If you are willing to forgo the set bonus, the Beetle Scale Mail offers 8% increased melee damage and critical strike chance, and 6% increased movement and melee speed (with a positive change in defense), though is harder to obtain.
 * Dragon Armor can be considered an upgrade of the Shadow armor.

Trivia

 * On the version, the Dragon armor is a recolor of Jungle armor, although it is a melee-oriented armor, not magic like the Jungle armor.
