Cosmetic Armor — FAQ

Troubleshooting & FAQ

Do cosmetic-slot items give protection? No - only the armor in your real armor slots protects you and provides enchantments. Cosmetic slots are purely visual.

The GUI won't open. Check the keybind in Options > Controls; it may be unbound or conflicting.

Can I just hide my helmet without losing protection? Yes - toggle that cosmetic slot to hidden while keeping the real helmet equipped.

Do other players see my cosmetic look? Yes - in multiplayer your displayed/hidden choices are visible to other players.
