This module gives armour "weight" by slowing the player depending on their armour points.

Features

Based on the amount of armour points you have, different levels of the slowness status effect are applied. More armour points causes more slowness. For example, being fully equipped with leather armour will cause no slowness effect, but a full set of diamond armour will cause the slowness III effect. Players should consider what level of protection they need for different activities, and have a few different outfits to wear accordingly.

Weight Values

Armor Points Slowness Effect
0-7 No Slowness
8-15 Slowness I
16-19 Slowness II
20 Slowness III

Metallurgy Compatibility

With the Metallurgy module installed, the Helios shamir can be used to reduce the weight of your armour. Each piece of armour with a Helios band applied will reduce your total weight (and thus slowness effect level) by one. If you have more Helios bands than armour weight however, the armour will begin to randomly float into the air, with you still inside, causing damage.

MC 1.8 Version

In MC 1.8 version, weight is calculated by assigning an amount to each armour piece, and adding up the points. This was heavily compacted once 1.9 introduced a new objective to test the armour points directly.
