Perfect for UHCs, this module forces you to balance protection with speed.

Details

Want to play Minecraft with a bit more strategy? Tired of getting a full set of diamond armour and becoming invincible? This module causes each worn armour piece to add to your weight and affecting you with Slowness I to III depending on total weight! A full set of leather armour will allow you to move at normal speed, so choose the best armour for a situation!

Based on the amount of armor points you have, a slowness effect is applied. These weights are based on the in-game tier of the armour, not on their real-world weight.

Weight Info

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

Compatibility

With the Helios module (released on Gamemode 4D), the custom shamir allows you to reduce one slowness level. i.e. 8-15 armor points would have no slowness effect, and 20, would have slowness II instead of slowness III. If Helios is applied, but there is not enough armor to weigh you down, you will experience a withering effect.

MC 1.8 Version

In MC 1.8 version (v1.0), weight is calculated by assigning an amount to each armor piece, and adding up the points. This was heavily compacted once 1.9 introduced a new objective to test the armor points directly.
