The gear in this list is made for starter players, and it is as strong as vanilla gear, hence the name. It can also be crafted using vanilla resources.

Amethyst Armor

The very first gear you will come with, just as strong as Iron but with lower durability. You cran craft Amethyst armor with amethyst shards. You can also claim you first set of amethyst with /kit starter.

Copper Armor

Copper was once the most useless mineral out there, until now! Here on Dragon Shieldd, you can craft Copper armor using ingots and wax. The armor has similar stats to iron, but has increased toughness, making it a great head start for any new player.

Emerald Armor

This valuable gem, once used as currency for villager trading, is also a material to craft Emerald armor. Just as strong as Diamond, this gear not only offers great protection, but also offers some luck points, which can be useful when exploring the many dungeons in Dragon Shield.

Bear in mind, however, that this armor requires blocks to be crafted, not single emeralds.
