Daedalus armor is a craftable Hardmode armor set crafted from Essences of Eleum and Cryonic Bars.
It consists of the Daedalus Breastplate and Daedalus Leggings, as well as one headpiece for each class: the Daedalus Helm, Daedalus Headgear, Daedalus Hood, Daedalus Mask, and Daedalus Facemask. All headpieces provide set bonuses specific to their class.
The full set grants the following effects while equipped (this includes the set bonus):
- +55 defense
- +18% melee damage
- +16% melee critical strike chance
- +10% melee speed
- +500 aggro
- +10% movement speed
- The ability to reflect projectiles
- Upon reflection, the player also takes 50% less damage from the attack.
- Dodges do not trigger if an attack deals less than 5% of the player's maximum health. Dodge cooldown depends on how much damage was dodged, ranging from 15 seconds at 5% maximum health to 90 seconds at 50% maximum health. This cooldown is shared with all other regular dodges and reflects.
