Armadillo Armor in Minecraft: Q&A with Rays Works

So many great questions to answer about the armadillo and the dog armor hello there Ray here and today we’ll try to answer all the different questions that you guys have about them so let’s get started and make sure you guys are still subscribed we’ll test this in Bedrock

Edition since we don’t have them yet in the Java Edition so when it comes to how much the armors actually help a normal wolf has 20 Hearts so three hits with a diamond sword will kill it and with armor it only takes another hit a total

Of four of them to kill it but how much damage they can take before dying is actually dependent on how much damage is dealt each time so if you do something smaller like a single punch which only does one damage to them a dog without any armor would only be able to sustain

20 of these hits before it would die but one with armor could take on 35 hits so the smaller the batches of damage are the more it can take overall before we’ll actually die and that’s just a weird property of how armor works and is

The same as if your player is wearing a full set of gold armor now you can actually remove the armor from your wolf by using shears and right clicking on them kind of like shearing a sheep and it does a small amount of damage to the shears as well now using dispensers to

Dispense dog armor onto dogs doesn’t work and when it comes to having shears kind of like sheep having shears to Shear off wool it also doesn’t work in removing the dog armor this poor llama here is trying to spit onto a wild wo down there it just can’t quite seem to

Pathf find directly on top of it it just keeps going around a circle oh poor llama guess that’s why they call it bug Rock Edition instead of Bedrock Edition so many bugs in it you cannot actually put enchantments onto the wolf armor this includes enchanting them with

Anvils you also can’t put trim on it like you can on normal armor as it doesn’t even go into the slot you also can’t dye the wolf armor like you can leather armor you cannot place the dog armor onto baby wolves even if they’re tame or wild wolves and of course you

Can’t actually place the wolf armor onto cats not because of this having an armored wolf is more early game or mid game and isn’t really useful for end game which is a bit of a Pity and that’s why a lot of people wanted to get the

Crab Claw as those could be used from early game all the way down to end game as the crab allowed the player to reach out further and you could probably say a similar thing with the penguins which would allow boats to actually move faster but it definitely seems like the

Wolf armor is very limited now there’s currently no cool down when it comes to how much you can use your brush on the armor Yow so the long as you spam it just keep getting scoots but every time you do this in survival it actually takes a huge chunk

Of durability out of the brush about 1/4 of all this durability so you only can do this a total of five times before your brush breaks and after using the brush four times looks like there’s no durability left at all and if we try to test to see how much durability is left

By using suspicious gravel which will just remove one durability when it’s complet it actually will break it meaning that there’s like one durability or zero durability or even a negative durability but whatever it is it’s at least one or less even with a high looting sword you don’t get anything

From them besides XPS so we know that armad deals will roll up into a ball if a player Sprints near them or if there’s a hostile mob nearby but how close do you have to be to them for this to happen now the limit to how far a

Armadillo can actually notice a hostile mob is 8 m away this is about the same distance that armadillo will also curl up when a player is sprinting so just by having a single hostile mob underneath of our little Playfield here I made a big chunk of blue ice and I placed in

Some armadillos and since they’re always within eight blocks of the actual zombie down there they’re always going to be scared they they continue to stay in the ball form so you can actually have like a little soccer game up here on top pushing these around you can have like a

Goalie and probably some way to count the scores and of course I had to do some funny Redstone it’s constantly a ball that’s getting pushed back and forth so once it gets towards the end here very nearly Clips this pressure plate which detects it pushing slime and

Will actually give it quite a bit of momentum it slides all the way to the other side oh look the doggy wants to join in oh there goes a dog no doggy ruined it they could definitely do some cool redstone with these bounce them all

Around so I try testing it to see if armadillos can activate trip wire depending on if they’re in normal walking State versus in a ball but it doesn’t seem that them actually crawling to a ball can be protected at least not between putting them on top of something

Like a large amethyst or a daily sensor they’re either always activating or always not activating it many more Minecraft secrets can be found in this playlist here otherwise you’re always welcome to browse my channel as I have hundreds of videos all about crazy things that can be done in Minecraft
