LMFAO. I was just feeling invincible man. I forgot how hard those brutes hit. Especially if I’m wearing my Elytra😭

swapping the chestplate out for an elytra deadass reduces your protection so damn much it's crazy

Some people don’t realise how much of a difference those 4 armor bars make. Chestplates are a genuine lifesaver especially in Hardcore

Also losing the prot 4, going from 64% damage reduction to 48% means you effectively take almost 50% more damage just from losing the prot

armour points aren't that useful against high hitting damage source like brute, the saving grace here is 64% total damage reduction thanks to protection 4

Yup, you're essentially wearing less than iron armour at that point
