How to Maximize Damage Reduction with Celestite Armor
Equipping Celestite for Maximum Defense
When facing difficult combat encounters where taking hits is unavoidable, pale blue Celestite crystal gear provides the strongest defensive barrier among the mod's materials.
1. Obtain Celestite crystals and craft the four pieces of armor: helmet, chestplate, leggings, and boots.
2. Equip all four armor items into your character's designated armor slots.
3. Celestite armor features highly increased protection compared to standard materials, significantly reducing incoming damage from hostile attacks and environmental impacts.
Choosing Celestite Over Other Crystal Sets
Understanding when to wear Celestite rather than alternative crystal armor sets helps tailor your setup to specific threats:
- Celestite vs. Citrine: Citrine offers fire and lava immunity along with high durability and a Strength effect, but Celestite provides superior raw damage protection.
- Celestite vs. Sapphire: Sapphire provides ocean utility with Water Breathing and Dolphin’s Grace, whereas Celestite is designed purely for surviving heavy combat damage on land or in standard caves.
- Use Celestite whenever your primary goal is sheer survivability against high-damage threats.
