EPIC KNIGHTS
16 armor sets, 26 weapons, 8 shields, and steel. War looks medieval here.
Epic Knights adds 16 sets of armor, 8 types of shields, and 26 types of weapons, most craftable from 11 materials: wood, stone, iron, gold, diamond, netherite, steel, copper, silver, tin, and bronze. Weapons have special features like increased range and armor piercing, so weapon choice matters in a fight.
The mod adds steel to the game. To make it, put an iron ingot in a blast furnace.
You can attach a banner to your armor or horse armor, just like on a shield, and add armor decorations, many dyeable in any color. Armies on Flegora can actually look like armies.
YDM's Weapon Master renders your hotbar weapons, shield, and banner visibly on your character. Press V to toggle what is shown.
