ReArm: Combat Overhaul

Armor rebalance

• Rebalanced defense values for all armor in the game
  • Max defense is now 40 up from 20
    • This does not mean 2x less damage taken. 40 defense still has the same efficiency as 20 defense in vanilla, it's only increased for easier armor scaling
  • Defense on vanilla armor sets now scales linearly:
    • Leather: 8
    • Copper/Gold: 16
    • Iron/Chainmail: 24
    • Diamond: 32
    • Netherite: 40
  • Armor from other mods will be automatically rebalanced, no need for explicit configuration or compatibility
  • Max defense for each armor material can be explicitly set in the mod configuration if desired
• Toughness now has a greater effect on damage reduction
  • Toughness now increases the minimum damage reduction
  • Armor without any toughness will be slightly weaker than vanilla
  • Armor with a few points of toughness is already stronger than vanilla and becomes much stronger at high toughness
• Changed how toughness is obtained on armor
  • All armor pieces now have 0 toughness
  • Toughness is now obtained by enchanting armor with protection enchantments
  • Each level of protection enchantment grants some toughness:
    • Melee and Projectile Protection: 0.3
    • Elemental Protection: 0.1
    • Blast and Magic Protection: 0.8
  • Compatibility for protection enchantments from other mods can be added using the mod configuration
• Changed how knockback resistance is applied to armor
  • All armor pieces now grant knockback resistance based on the total defense their armor set grants
  • At max defense, each piece gets 10% (matches vanilla netherite values)
• Every part of the armor rebalance is fully adjustable and toggleable in the mod configuration

Improved sneaking

• Sneaking is now much more effective at reducing the range at which mobs can detect players
  • Range reduction when sneaking increased to 80% up from 20%
  • Can be adjusted in the mod configuration

Changes

• [NeoForge] Updated to Minecraft 1.21.10
• [Fabric] Fixed thrown axe being invisible in 1.21.10
• Increased the damage reduction of Melee Protection to match other protection enchantments
• Knockback reduction in item tooltips now displays as a percentage instead of a number (0.1 -> 10%)
