Shadow armor

It takes a total of 60 Demonite Bars and 45 Shadow Scales to craft a full suit of Shadow Armor. Pieces of Shadow Armor can also be dropped when the Eater of Worlds is defeated.

It 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.

When the full suit is worn, the player also makes trails behind them as they run, and the suit also sparks off shadow particles.

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