Repairing
Ingredients | Crafting recipe | Description |
---|---|---|
Damaged Primordial Helmet | The durability of the two primordial helmets is added together, plus an extra 5% durability. | |
Damaged Primordial Pants | The durability of the two pairs of primordial pants is added together, plus an extra 5% durability. | |
Damaged Primordial Tunic | The durability of the two primordial tunics is added together, plus an extra 5% durability. |
All pieces of the Primordial Armor Set may also be repaired on an anvil by using Tough Hide or another of the matching piece. Grindstones may also be used in place of anvils, but armor pieces will only be able to be repaired with another matching armor piece.
Chest loot
Caveman Houses occasionally generating within the Primordial Caves have loot chests all with 0.7% chances to contain a Primordial Helmet, Primordial Tunic, or Primordial Pants.
Usage
Due to the Primordial Armor Set having an entirely different model compared to regular armor, it cannot be trimmed with a smithing template.
Protection values
The Primordial Armor Set will grant more defense than the leather armor set, but less than the chainmail armor set.

Special properties
When having any piece of Primordial Armor equipped, eating any raw meat will add one extra 1 () hunger point and 1.6 extra hunger saturation. This bonus will stack for each armor piece equipped, with a maximum of 3 (
) extra hunger points and 4.8 extra hunger saturation. Despite Primordial Armor improving the effectiveness of raw meats, the armor will not negate any status effects inflicted by eating raw food (such as raw chicken).
Below is a list of foods are more effective in filling hunger and saturation when eating while wearing Primordial Armor.
- Raw Beef
- Raw Porkchop
