Description
Adds a full Fishscale armor set — Helmet, Chestplate, Leggings, and Boots — that you can craft early using any item in the vanilla fishes tag and repair with fish. The armor provides balanced, fish-themed protection and effects for survival play, appears correctly on your character with custom worn textures, and is also available in its own Fishscale Armor creative tab. Collect fish, craft the pieces at a crafting table, equip them for visual and defensive benefits, and maintain them by feeding fish into an anvil to repair.

Overview
Fishscale Armor is a fish-themed armor set you can put together early in a playthrough using nothing but fish. It offers balanced protection across all four armor slots, custom worn textures visible on your character, and easy repair using the same fish you craft it with.
What It Adds
| Item | Armor Points |
|---|---|
| Fishscale Helmet | 2 |
| Fishscale Chestplate | 5 |
| Fishscale Leggings | 4 |
| Fishscale Boots | 2 |
The full set provides 13 armor points total, along with 1.0 toughness across the set. The equip sound is shared with Turtle armor, giving it a fittingly aquatic feel.
Crafting And Obtaining
Any item in the vanilla fishes tag works as a crafting ingredient — Cod, Salmon, Tropical Fish, and Pufferfish are all valid. Mix and match freely.
Fishscale Helmet
Fishscale Chestplate
Fishscale Leggings
Fishscale Boots
All pieces are also available directly from the Fishscale Armor creative tab.
Abilities And Mechanics
- Protection — The set gives solid early-game defense comparable to mid-tier armor.
- Custom textures — Each piece displays a unique Fishscale texture when worn on your character model.
- Repairable with fish — Place a damaged piece in an anvil with any fish to restore its durability. No special materials needed.
- Enchantable — As standard armor items, all pieces accept the usual armor enchantments.
Progression And Strategy
Fishscale Armor shines as an early-to-mid game option. Fish are easy to obtain from rivers, oceans, and fishing before you have access to iron or diamonds. Craft the full set as soon as you have enough fish to get a protective edge in your first few nights. Keep a stack of fish handy for anvil repairs to extend the life of your set while you work toward stronger materials.
