Editing Diamond Armor

'''Diamond Armor''' is the main armor in [[Pit Sandbox]]: a diamond helmet, chestplate and boots whose Protection level is upgraded at [[Marcus]]. The leg slot is for [[Mystic Items|Mystic Pants]] instead.

==Obtaining==
*New players receive a Protection I set in the [[Starter Kit]].
*Marcus's Armor Upgrades menu has a free '''Beginner's Armor''' button that gives a Protection I helmet, chestplate and boots at any time.
*Diamond Armor is kept on death.

==Protection==
*Each Protection level on a piece reduces the damage you take by 2.5%. The item's lore shows the total for that piece, for example "Protection IV (-10% damage)".
*The three pieces add up: a full Protection VII set reduces damage by 52.5%.
*Your [[Prestige|prestige]] limits the Protection level that counts. A piece above your limit shows the extra levels crossed out in its lore.

! Prestige !! Highest Protection that counts
|-
| 0–16 || II
|-
| 17–23 || III
|-
| 24–37 || IV
|-
| 38–53 || V
|-
| 54–74 || VI
|-
| 75+ || VII
|}

==Upgrading==
Wear the piece you want to upgrade and open Marcus's '''Armor Upgrades''' menu. Each upgrade raises one piece by one Protection level, after a confirmation.

! Upgrade !! Prestige !! Helmet !! Chestplate !! Boots
|-
| I → II || 1 (helmet), 2 (chestplate), 3 (boots) || Free || Free || Free
|-
| II → III || 17 || $235,000 || $202,000 || $320,000

|}
*[[Runes]] are applied to Diamond Armor through Runecrafting.
*If the piece has a rune on it, each upgrade has a 30% chance to destroy the rune. Shiny runes are never lost.

==Chestplate abilities==
From Prestige 24, a Diamond Chestplate at Protection IV or higher can get one special ability. Right-click the chestplate in the Armor Upgrades menu to choose it. A chestplate can only have one ability.
{| class="wikitable"
! Ability !! Effect !! Cost
|-
| Counter-Offensive || Gain Speed II for 4 seconds on every 4th hit you take. || $4,950,000 and 32 [[Moon Stone|Moon Stones]]
|-
| Fabric of Divinity || 10% chance to keep your [[Mystic Items#Lives|Jewel item lives]] when you die. || $49,500,000 and 32 Inventory Beacons
|-
| Remarkable Resilience || Take 15% less damage while you have absorption hearts. || $495,000,000 and 32 Dark Matter
|}
Adding an ability has the same 30% chance to destroy a rune on the chestplate.

==Diamond Infusion==
'''Diamond Dust''' infuses Diamond Armor for a little extra defense. Hold it and right-click, then pick the helmet, chestplate or boots you are wearing.
*Each Diamond Dust adds 10 to 20 charge to the piece. Filling the piece's bar raises its Infusion level, up to V.
*Each level needs more charge than the last: 100, 300, 800, 2,000 and 5,000.
*Each Infusion level reduces the damage you take by 0.5%, up to 2.5% per piece and 7.5% for a full set.
*Diamond Dust comes from store deals.
