From Scales to Suits

DragonLoot is built around a single material: Dragon Scale. The mod adds a full tier of craftable equipment made from it, covering the usual tool and weapon slots — axe, pickaxe, shovel, hoe, sword, bow, crossbow, and trident — plus a complete armor set of helmet, chestplate, leggings, and boots. There is also Dragon Horse Armor for your mount.

The centerpiece is the Dragon Anvil, a dedicated crafting station. Rather than treating dragon gear as ordinary recipes at a vanilla anvil or crafting table, the mod routes its crafting through this block, so you will want to build one before you start producing equipment.

Because the mod is small and self-contained, progression is straightforward: gather Dragon Scale, set up the Dragon Anvil, then work through the gear you want. The winged chestplate variant is the standout reward, since it grants flight — worth prioritizing once you have the materials to spare.
