Some ideas for new armor that could be added to the game is that when you get leather, if you cook it in a furnace it produces Cooked Leather, witch can then be crafted into Hard Leather Armor, witch produces an extra 50% armor than just leather.
Also you could do the same to Iron Ingots to get Stainless iron witch will have the same effect as cooked leather and adds an extra 50% to armor amount, also swords will have extra Dam.
Also for a halloweenish look... bone armor made from cooked bone-meal, slightly stronger than cooked leather would be.
*the idea of wood armor also crossed my mind as there has been existing armor made out of that in the real world, but the only use for it that i could think of is it increases buoyancy in water. and swords would be used for beginners but have low dam but easy accessibility.*
Wool could also be used to fashion cloths in relation with color, allowing to make multi colored cloths and hats
i was also suggested by a friend about a scuba idea witch im preety sure there have been many suggestion but heres my freinds design
have an idea feel free to post. also open to hard critiquing.
UPDATE
A friend suggested this to me (same one tat suggested scuba gear) that leather and wool could be crafted together to make Hunters Armor. While it wont be any stronger than leather, it will increase accuracy and Dam with a bow, and makes it so you can sneak past creepers (and other aggressive mobs) without being noticed when in crouching mode and wearing full suit.

I like this. I also thought of Flippers which makes you swim faster, Ice Skates which make you run faster and smoother on ice, Speed Boots which make you run faster, Iron Knuckles which give you more power and Heat Proof Vest which prevents you from burning to death.
I think the idea of hard leather armour is pretty cool. With the stainless steel armour are you meaning that you would smelt the iron ore into iron ingots, then put them back in to transform them to stainless steel?
ok, so i looked at your thread and i suppose i get your idea, and kinda agree with you on allot of the items, and as for the leather, armor goes by a % reduction (as im sure you know) and is why you can die and your armor can live, sometimes, and leather is only a 20% reduction for full set, so a full set cooked leather would be 30% and iron is at 50% (gold is like 10) and stainless steal would be 75% and diamonds would be at 90%
and the bone/meal could fall in anywere between 30-60%

i suppose it could be made so that the only way you can get steel is if we had a combining smelter. the way steel was made in medieval times was by getting carbon into the iron while it was heated, so if we had an actual smelter instead of just a furnace, we could combine coal/charcoal and iron ingots while they are heated by more coal/wood/lava, then it would produce a steel ingot. We also need an anvil so we can repair things :tongue.gif:

Do you guys like mods? Do you like magic? Do you enjoy the idea of adding magic to minecraft? Check out my channel, and see just how awesome minecraft with magic can be! --> http://www.youtube.c.../darkpheonix005
I do not support this because this will start the game on the path of WoW which would ruin minecraft
Not really, Wow is an MMORPG Built for adventuring and mindless killing, Thus by deffiniton, Minecraft could never become like WoW, also MineCraft is meant to be as life like as possible while still breaking...OVER 9000!!!!!!!...laws of physics. And also notch is going to keep upgradeing it untill it reaches a "Modern" time style with diff stuffs to craft, and craft and craft and craft. Why? Becouse, MineCraft is made up of 3 parts, Mine, mine and craft, Mine:Its your world! 2:mine, mine your materials, 3: Craft, craft everything you make.

The problems: 1. I don't know of anyone who uses hide armor at all. It's a pain to get, and it's really, really easy to just get iron armor.
2. None of the ideas are fleshed out at all.
3. The scuba setup is way to easy to acquire. It needs to incorporate iron or redstone in some way to prevent it from being obtained too quickly.
The okay: Clothes, if the idea were fleshed out more.

well let me expand the scuba idea. i kinda wrote this at 3 am and was to lazy to explain in more detail.
SCUBA GEAR
head- --the iron in the helmet is for the air-valve to allow for air circulation
body- :White:-the redstone acts as a system for the release valve(iron)and the glass as an air chamber
legs- [] [] --the iron is to act in the same way as this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shark_suit []
feet-
[] [] [] [] -leather is for the webbing on a scuba suits feet [] =iron =leather =cloth =air chambers = Redstone
-----------------------------
Hard leather armor- Its just a common way that Leather-workers used to make leather more durable and thus stronger.
-----------------------------
cloths-colors correspond with color of wool so you could have multi-colored clothes, full suit=leather body
-----------------------------
hunters suit- when you hold Shift it puts you in a crouch position, so when wearing the armor it makes you slightly transparent and enemies can't see you, but only if you are 2 blocks away, behind it, or until you attack it. Creepers also wont blow up until you attack it but can still run into you. made the same way as other armor but uses a mix of leather and wool durability= armor body+legs
-----------------------------
bone armor- come on, you cant tell me you've never wanted to use the dead remains of your enemy to strike fear into all of the other enemies. durability- in-between iron and leather
-----------------------------
wood- um...well...makes you float?
-----------------------------
stainless steal- one step above iron, just an easy way to get extra armor.

Stainless Steel Sounds more like Cutlery
Cooked/Hard Leather, That sounds way too overpowered, 50% more durability just for smelting/cooking it, balance that out
Again 50% More durability just for Smelting it, Balance Please
Bone Armour From Cooked BoneMeal....Idk about that, could be developped upon, but cooking bones gets you bone ashes...not very logical
Anways You might wanna look at my thread
Armours, Crafting Them, Dying Them, Ect.
I will be using them soon
I'm Starting to be known as a Balancer, A.K.A. I'm starting to become pessimist
