![]() ![]() Farming Turtle Shells can be very frustrating.4% increased melee critical strike chance.8% increased melee damage and critical strike chance.Enemies will want to target the player more when worn.The Leggings: 18 Chlorophyte Bars, and one Turtle Shell.The Scale Mail: 24 Chlorophyte Bars, and one Turtle Shell.The Helmet: 12 Chlorophyte Bars, and one Turtle Shell.Turtle Armor requires a total of 54 Chlorophyte Bars (exactly 324 ore, only found in the Underground Jungle), as well as Turtle Shells (one for each piece of the armor), which has 5% chance to drop from Giant Tortoises in the Jungle. Turtle Armor can be combined with multiple Beetle Husks to create the Beetle Armor, which has higher defense and powerful melee-based bonuses, but will not have the thorns effect of the Turtle Armor. It is also good to use during the Pumpkin Moon and Frost Moon events, as good defense is important and the thorns effect. For better attack but less defense, Chlorophyte Armor with the mask should be crafted instead. Thus, it fits more for a player who wants more defense than attack. This will cause any Wings the player is wearing to be hidden until they take flight, at which point the shell is replaced by wings.ĭespite the armor being amazing defensive armor, it is not the best melee armor, seeing that the pre-hardmode molten armor gives more melee damage. When wearing the full set, the player's back has a turtle shell on it. ![]() However, each piece of the armor makes enemies more likely to target you. On the PC version, Console version, Mobile version, and tModLoader version, the Turtle armor can be seen as the Hardmode counterpart of the Cactus armor.The Turtle Armor is a type of Armor that provides melee bonuses, a lot of defense (the third best defense in the game), and the full set also returns full damage to your enemies once it hits the wearer with a melee attack, similar to the Thorns potion effect.You also aren't able to use this exploit against the Empress of Light, despite her average defense and heavy damage. Upgrading to Beetle armor, however, will allow the player to survive one hit while using a Lifeforce Potion and Endurance Potion. As of current versions, it is no longer possible to exploit this armor's Thorns effect to quickly defeat the Dungeon Guardian, as the Guardian's attack has been reduced to 1000 while its health remains at 9999 and the Thorns effect now deals 1 damage like all other attacks.It can be combined with a Chlorophyte Mask or Hallowed Mask and Squire's Greaves for a much stronger offensive melee set, though it lacks the 15% damage reduction and Thorns effect of full Turtle armor. Unlike the Helmet and Leggings, Turtle Scale Mail has relatively decent offensive stats.It pairs well with the Paladin's Shield and both of its upgraded versions, increasing the survivability of the player's teammates as well as their own. Turtle armor works well as a support set for multiplayer since it draws aggro from enemies and bosses.The effect also does not activate when players are hit by lasers or other projectiles that bosses tend to use. However, the Thorns effect deals negligible damage compared to most Hardmode weapons, causing it to be relatively worthless for boss fights.The passive Thorns effect usually allows players to ignore weak enemies that rely on contact damage, especially when combined with a shield for knockback immunity.Each armor piece of this set increases aggro by 250 points.The reflected damage is decreased by banners (25% in Classic or lower, 50% in Expert or above), rerolled inversely by luck (having negative luck will give a chance to increase incoming damage, and thorns as a result) and capped at 1000 damage.It deals twice as much damage as a Thorns Potion but is otherwise identical. The set's Thorns effect cannot be improved by the Thorns Potion buff nor the Dryad's Blessing buff.If one intends to craft both chest pieces of the Beetle armor, a total of 78 Chlorophyte Bars (390 Chlorophyte Ore) and 4 Turtle Shells are required to craft the whole Beetle armor set.Though it provides considerable defense, Turtle armor's bonuses to melee damage and critical strike chance are barely higher than those of Cobalt armor and Molten armor. ![]()
