Tidal Rocketwing Armor

Quickstart

1. At a crafting table, make the armor and weapon using the recipe references below. Equip the Horizon pieces in their matching armor slots; hold The Sovereign Storm-Mace in your hand.
2. Try the Horizon Helmet underwater for breathing and visibility, or wear the Leggings to move over water and lava.
3. Use the Storm-Mace to throw it; it calls down lightning where it hits. Sneak + Use instead activates its Riptide dash. Aim mostly forward to dash, or sharply up or down to set up a slam when you land.
4. Equip the Chestplate and Boots, start gliding, then sneak to get a forward flight boost.

Overview

Tidal Rocketwing Armor combines an exploration-focused armor set with a throwable, Riptide-powered weapon. Each armor piece has its own benefit, and wearing all four pieces grants an additional bonus.

What It Adds

How To Use

• Glide and boost: Wear the Chestplate and Boots, begin gliding, then sneak to boost in the direction you are looking. The Boots also grant slow falling when you are falling but not gliding.
• Walk across hazards: Wear the Leggings to create temporary footing beneath you over water, lava, and air near the bottom of the world. The temporary blocks revert after you move away.
• Find ores: Wear the Helmet. Particles mark nearby coal, iron, copper, gold, lapis, redstone, diamond, emerald, quartz, and ancient debris ores.
• Throw the Storm-Mace: Use it while not sneaking. The projectile damages and knocks back what it hits, then calls down lightning at the impact point.
• Use Riptide: Sneak and use the Storm-Mace to launch yourself in the direction you are looking. A steep upward or downward aim sets up a slam: after you become airborne, landing triggers a damaging knockback blast around you.
• Melee: A hit while falling, or while gliding downward, gains a powerful impact and a blast that damages and knocks back nearby enemies. Riptide uses have a brief cooldown.

Crafting And Obtaining

Craft each piece at a crafting table:

Horizon Helmet

Horizon Chestplate

Horizon Leggings

Horizon Boots

The Sovereign Storm-Mace

Abilities And Mechanics

• Helmet: Grants Water Breathing and Night Vision while equipped. Its ore-finding particles can reveal ores within roughly 12 blocks.
• Leggings: Grant Speed II, Dolphin’s Grace, and Fire Resistance. The temporary water, lava, and void-walking platforms are created beneath your feet and restore the original blocks afterward.
• Full set: Wearing all four Horizon pieces grants Regeneration.
• Storm-Mace: Its thrown projectile can hit entities or blocks, with lightning striking at the impact location. A downward melee hit adds an impact burst; a Riptide slam creates a separate blast when you land.

Progression And Strategy

The recipes call for substantial materials, including Netherite armor, Nether Stars, Echo Shards, and—in the Storm-Mace recipe—a Heavy Core and Trident. Start with the piece that suits your next trip: the Helmet for underwater exploration and ore spotting, or the Leggings for hazardous terrain. For powered gliding, wear both the Chestplate and Boots; save the full set for the extra Regeneration benefit.
