Cobalt armor

Cobalt Armor is an armor set which requires 45 Cobalt Bars, or 135 pieces of Cobalt Ore, to craft a one-helmet set. Crafting all five pieces requires a total of 75 Cobalt Bars or 225 Cobalt Ore. Like all Hardmode ore armors, Cobalt Armor has three different headgear/helmet options, allowing players to focus on magical, melee, or ranged combat, and each changing the set's bonus. Peculiarly, with the exception of the Cobalt Helmet, each piece of this set has less defense than its preceding tier of Molten Armor, making this set arguably useless, especially in version 1.2 or any version later, where this is no longer part of the Hallowed Armor set.

A full set of Cobalt Armor creates an after-image/motion blur effect similar to the Ninja clothes, Shadow armor and Necro armor.

Trivia

 * The hat, helmet, and mask appear very similar to a straw hat, a samurai helmet, and a ninja mask, all of which are common in media portrayals of Feudal Japan.
 * The whole set with the helmet looks similar to Megaman's suit.
