Forgotten Armory: Templar Style

 

 

<span style="color: #f29d12;">"Before&nbsp;</span><span style="color: #f29d12;">the calamity. Before the rot set in. Before the Blackguards and the Forlorn Hope marched.</span>
<span style="color: #f29d12;">There was an age of wealth and power &mdash; master craftsmen forged blades fit for kings, knights grew fat on coin and blood, women wove their own webs of influence, and lords ruled with iron hands.</span>
<span style="color: #f29d12;">Wars raged in the name of the king, calling the boldest and the strongest to seize glory &mdash; or die chasing it.</span>

&nbsp;

<span style="color: #f29d12;">That meant every blacksmith, craftsman, and worker strove to give their best. The most skilled members of the guilds approached the status of scholars and&nbsp;devoted&nbsp;their entire lives to perfecting the crafts they were so deeply committed to.</span>

<span style="color: #f29d12;">In these times, armors of unquestionable quality appeared, forged with techniques that only the greatest of masters could replicate.</span>

<span style="color: #f29d12;">All of this, of course, is now lost to time.</span>
<span style="color: #f29d12;">What remains are a few forgotten scrolls, passed down through generations scarred by hardship and suffering, now left to rot on dust-choked shelves and in the deepest shadows of abandoned strongholds.</span>
<span style="color: #f29d12;">Only a handful of these schematics survived the devastating scourge of rot, scattered across the broken world &mdash; waiting to be unearthed, claimed, and brought back to glory!</span>

<span style="color: #f29d12;">The forge of excellence and perfection awaits yo</span>

<span style="color: #f29d12;">u &mdash; step forward, and let your hands reignite the flame that shapes destiny."</span>

This series of mods aims to introduce historically inspired armors into the game.
This one is dedicated to the Crusades.

&nbsp;

Armors added by this mod are somewhat improved versions of the vanilla items, which serve as the base for crafting these modded armors.
Templars and Crusaders needed to survive long and treatcherous journey and not die of overheating or starvation. It didnt matter that much about speed, but durability and stamina was everything. This is reflected in the armor stats.

&nbsp;

You will, as always need a specific schematic, which can be found in newly generated ruins or may appear at the Treasure Trader (Useful traders compatible) once he restocks after you install this mod.
Due to the rarity of these schematics, their price won&rsquo;t exactly be a bargain.

&nbsp;

Anyway, this one is a bigger one so i expect some errors to pop up somewhere &mdash; let me know if you find some.
I&rsquo;m aware that the recipes are VERY expensive, and that&rsquo;s intentional &mdash; these armors represent very late-game technology. On the bright side, once crafted, the armor is easy to maintain.

All feedback is welcome too, and the availability of this armor in survival mode can be rebalanced in the future if there&rsquo;s enough pushback.

Compatibilities:(only for 1.21.x)

Hope you enjoy!
