- Not to be confused with Plague Reaper armor, a Hardmode ranger armor set.
Plaguebringer armor is a craftable Hardmode armor set and an upgrade to the Bee armor set. While wearing the Plaguebringer Carapace, the player has a tank equipped behind them. While wearing all three set pieces, a motion blur afterimage is displayed while the player is walking, paired with additional trails of green dust while sprinting.
It consists of a Plaguebringer Visor, Plaguebringer Carapace, and Plaguebringer Pistons.
The full set grants the following effects while equipped (this includes the set bonus):
- +32 defense
- +60% summon damage
- +3 minion slots
- +15% movement speed
- Immunity to the Plague debuff
- Friendly bees and wasps inflict the Plague debuff
- Summons a small Plaguebringer minion that fires bees and plague bees, which both home in on nearby enemies and deal 25 summon damage.
- The ability to perform a plague ram dash with a base distance of 23 blocks by double-tapping the ◀ LeftA (PC default): Moves character left or ▶ RightD (PC default): Moves character right keys. The dash deals 50 summon damage and grants the player 12 immunity frames for each enemy hit by the dash.
- The ability to grow tall flowers on grass tiles while walking on them, similarly to the Flower Boots and its upgrade. There is also a small chance every frame for a random dye plant to grow while the player is on Dirt Blocks, similarly to the Bloom Stone, which can either be a normal dye plant or a Strange Plant.
