Copper Armor

Copper armor is a type of armor made from copper ingots. It is the sixth strongest armor, between gold and leather.

In Normal and Hard difficulties, zombies, husks, skeletons, strays, and bogged have a chance to spawn with armor, with a 32.23% chance of it being copper armor. There is a 8.5% chance (9.5% with Looting I, 10.5% with Looting II and 11.5% with Looting III) for the mob to drop the armor they're wearing upon death. The dropped armor is usually badly damaged, and may be enchanted with enchantment levels 5-19.

Wearing copper armor reduces damage taken from most damage types.
