All about Hematite

(All objects textures are blurred because of the site's image compression, but in game they are sharp.)

First, let's look at the ores:

1.

The cuprite ores

• Hardness = 1

• Resistance = 3

• Average amount of ore groupe per chunks = 8

• Average numbers of ores in a groupe = 14

• Generation height = 32 - 256 ( ideal digging height = 144)

• The minimum tool required for breaking is a stone tool.

2.

The hematite ingot

-The hematite ingot has a very special craft:

it's equivalent to iron, and to obtain it you need to merge the hematite ore with a copper ingot in the craft table.

Hematite ingot craft

Hematite ore + copper ingot = Hematite ingot

Next, let's take a look at the tools:

Also, let's take a look at copper armor:

1.

The hematite helmet

Damage protection : 2 = 8% damage reduction

The craft of the hematite helmet

Requires 5 hematite ingots

1.6% damage reduction / hematite ingot

2.

The hematite chestplate

Damage protection : 6 = 24% damage reduction

The craft of the hematite chestplate

Requires 8 hematite ingots

3% damage reduction / hematite ingot

3.

The hematite leggings

Damage protection : 5 = 20% damage reduction

The craft of the hematite leggings

Requires 7 hematite ingots

2.85% damage reduction / hematite ingot

4.

The hematite helmet

Damage protection : 2 = 8% damage reduction

1.6% damage reduction / hematite ingot

5. The complete armor :

• Requires 24 copper ingot (Not easy to find)

• 60% damage reduction

In conclusion, hematite is a durable mineral; tools and armor are fairly easy to make and have good durability for rarity (equivalent to iron).

It's a good ore that's a light evolution of iron, and its brown color gives you an incredible look!
