Perfect Armor

Perfect Armor is an armor set that is unlocked in Diamond collection IX. This is currently the only tiered Armor set in the game, having 12 tiers. Tier 1 Perfect Armor requires 24 Enchanted Diamond Blocks crafted in vanilla armor crafting pattern. To upgrade a tier of Perfect Armor, you would need to put the piece in the middle of the crafting grid, and surround it by 4 Enchanted Diamond Blocks in a plus shape. Tier XII perfect armor requires a grand total of 200 Enchanted Diamond Blocks, which costs when bought from the Bazaar. This armor gives by far the most of any set in the game as of now, giving a whopping 1380 defense without any upgrades when it is tier XII. However, in terms of Effective Health, it is rivaled by several armor sets, such as Mastiff armor and Necromancer Lord Armor.

Essence crafting
Perfect armor can be turned into a Dungeon item using Diamond Essence, dropped from Angry Archeologists.

Tier I
Tier I Perfect Armor is and is crafted in a vanilla pattern out of Enchanted Diamond Blocks. It has no full set bonus or bonus but makes up for it with its incredible bonus.

Requires 24 Enchanted Diamond Blocks for the whole set.

Upgrading
Upgrading each piece of armor by one tier requires four Enchanted Diamond Blocks (16 per set). The Armor piece is placed in the center of the crafting table while the blocks are placed in a cross pattern around the armor.

Example of increasing an item by 1 tier:

Tips

 * Tier XII Perfect Armor has 1380 total (~93.2% damage reduction), which gives the Armor set one of the highest Effective Health in the game.
 * The most common Reforges areReinforced, Giant, and Perfect as they also increase your EHP. However, a player using this set in dungeons may reforge according to their class's needs.
 * Every Tier upgrades the armor the same way, giving  to the piece.
 * Tiering up a piece of Perfect Armor keeps all Enchantments, Reforges, stars, and Hot Potato Books on it.
 * As perfect armor have no full set bonus, a piece of perfect armor is amazing as a filler item for a set of armor. For instance, the Necromancer Lord Chestplate and the Shadow Assassin Chestplate is very expensive, and a perfect chestplate would make a great filler chestplate if the player cannot afford a full set.
 * This set is very good for mages, healers, and tanks in dungeons as its high defense as well as high rarity means the players can tank a lot of hits before dying, while still getting good reforges. For mages, the recommended reforge is Loving or Necrotic. For Healers, the recommended reforge is Empowered.
 * Outside of dungeons, there is not really a need as it does not buff damage at all. It is easily outclassed by something like Superior Dragon Armor. However, one notable exception to this rule is Diana's Mythological Ritual, as the Sword of Revelations will make you take a lot of damage, but Perfect Armor's high defense helps nullify that.
 * Most players will only use 3/4 of this set and sacrifice the helmet with a Reaper Mask, Precursor Eye, Shadow Goggles (if the player is playing mage), or Vampire Witch Mask as these helmets are not only better than a perfect helmet, but also in most cases cheaper.
 * Perfect Armor is good for Auction Flipping as the low demand of these items mean they can easily go below NPC sell value. Especially be on the lookout for extremely high tiered Perfect Armor (as their catacombs requirement is too high for most players to need) and Perfect Helmets (as they are easily outclassed by one of the said helmets). To calculate the price a NPC would buy a piece of armor, take the amount of diamonds needed to craft the armor piece, and multiply it by 4. For example, a t10 Perfect Helmet would require 41 Enchanted Diamond Blocks, or 1,049,600 Diamonds to craft. That means a NPC would buy the helmet for 4,198,400 coins.
 * This armor set is comparible to the Super Heavy Set, as they both produce a high defense stat but no base health stat. A max tiered Super Heavy Armor is slightly worse than a t7 set of perfect armor. However, while the perfect armor is better overall, it is also much more expensive, as it requires a lot of diamonds to craft, and also it requires the rare Diamond Essence, which tend to go for high prices as opposed to Super Heavy Set requiring Undead Essence, which are generally extremely easy to obtain.
 * Rather than focusing on adding more to this set, it is generally better to add more . This is because having a balance between the two will greatly increase Effective Health.
