Armor Progression Guide
This is a simple resource list out each of the armor sets in this mod, alongside how and when they are obtained. Also covers vanilla armor sets that can be converted to Thrower class by this mod. Remember that Ninja, Crystal Assassin, and Shinobi Infiltrator are NOT Thrower unless toggled in the mod's config!

Pre-Hardmode:
  • 1: Stealth Set: Early-game set made from Copper/Tin Bars, Silk, and Cobweb. Very weak, meant to hold you over until you can get Ninja, Feather, or Fossil.

  • 1.5: Ninja Set (Vanilla): Normally drops from King Slime. But by default Block's Thrower Mod moves the set to the Ninja NPC's shop (This tweak can be reverted in the config). The Ninja NPC is obtained by rescuing him via. defeating King Slime. Better than Stealth, but still weak.

  • 2a: Feather Set: Made from Silver/Tungsten Bars, Silk, and Feathers. Has good mobility and survivability, viable for most of Pre-Hardmode.

  • 2b: Fossil Set (Vanilla): Made from Sturdy Fossils. Unique in that it retains its original stats alongside having Thrower boosts added on, making it a Ranger-Thrower hybrid. Offense-oriented alternative to Feather Set.

  • 3a: Master's Set: Sold by the Ninja post-Skeletron. Strong, well rounded set that comes with a dodge as its set bonus.

  • 3b: Akuma Set: Crafted from Ninja Armor and Hellstone Bars. Alternative to Master's, having better raw defense and an offense-oriented set bonus.
Hardmode:
  • 4a: Hidden One's Set: Early Hardmode set made from Ancient Cloth, Dark Shards, and Light Shards. Has good raw stats, and its set bonus grants a somewhat Shroomite-like stealth effect.

  • 4b Crystal Assassin Set (Vanilla): Dropped by Queen Slime. Well-rounded alternative to Hidden One's. Set bonus still includes the built-in dash, making it flexible and highly mobile.

  • 5: Hallowed Visage (Hallowed Set): New Hallowed Armor headpiece for Throwers. Has the same set bonus, as well as a statistically identical Ancient variant. Made from Hallowed Bars as expected.

  • 6: Dark Knight Set: Made from Chlorophyte Bars and Umbra Cloth, a new material dropped by Reapers and Vampires post-Mechs. Post-Mechs set that grants a teleport effect ability with a cooldown. Teleporting briefly boosts Throwing stats.

  • 7a: Bionic Set: Post-Plantera set sold by the Cyborg while the Ninja is present. Has very strong survivability due to its set bonus granting an occasional on-kill lifesteal effect.

  • 7b: Winter's Set: Post-Plantera set made from Shattered Flakes, a new material dropped by most Frost Moon enemies. Offense-oriented alternative to the Bionic Set, despite having weaker raw stats, its set bonus grants a large boost to damage output as it grants a chance to add extra, duplicate projectiles to thrown attacks.

  • 7.5: Shinobi Infiltrator Set (Vanilla): Sold by Tavernkeep once the third tier of the Old One's Army is available. Now a powerful Thrower-Summoner hybrid set, though it loses its strong whip speed boosts due to dropping melee speed boosts. Still buffs Lightning Aura sentries.

  • 8: Void Set: Made from Luminite Bars and Void Shards, a new material dropped by the Lunatic Cultist. Lunar Armor for Thrower, boasting very strong stats and a set bonus that grants a powerful dodge effect that heals you based on the damage of the dodged attack.
