This sounds completely way off topic. To answer your question, yes "gold armor" and "gold tools" are totally useless, making them is either A) flaunting your money around (by wasting it) or B) you have no idea what you're doing.

You can use /hero tools and /hero armor to find a list of all the available armor to you. At the moment the most only real viable armor is leather, chain, iron, and diamond. Most people have their "gold tools, armor" dismantled into gold ingots to sell for $$. I am not sure on the return, if it is a 1-to-1 ratio of input resource to output. I'm pretty sure you only get 1, or 2, ingot(s) per item.

Spoiler

The following types of damage are reduced by armor and, consequently, damage the armor itself:

• Direct attacks from mobs
• Direct attacks from other player
• Getting hit with an arrow
• Getting hit with a fireball from a Ghast or Blaze
• Touching a block of fire or lava
• Touching a cactus
• Explosions

The following types of damage are not reduced by armor and have no effect on the armor itself:

• Ongoing damage from being on fire
• Suffocating inside a block
• Drowning in water
• Starvation
• Fall damage
• Falling into the Void
• Poisoning; e.g., from a Cave spider attack or a Potion of Poison
• Instant damage from a Potion of Harming
• /kill command

Protection enchantments protect from types of damage that armor doesn't protect against without an enchantment, like falling damage. Armor durability still doesn't decrease when protection-enchanted armor takes environmental damage.

The following table shows the amount of defense points per units of material (i.e. the cost efficiency), compared with the chestplate of each material.

MaterialHelmetChestplateLeggingsBoots
Leather53%100%76%67%
Gold64%100%69%40%
Chain64%100%91%40%
Iron53%100%95%67%
Diamond60%100%86%75%

The following table shows the amount of defense points added by each individual piece of armor, as well as the total points added by a full set of armor for each material.

Each point of armor reduces the damage you take by 8%, up to the maximum reduction of 80%.*

Chain122541
Iron152652
Diamond203863

The following table shows the amount of damage each piece of armor can absorb before being destroyed.
Any "hit" dealt by a mob (including creeper explosions) will remove 2 durability points to the armor.
Other damage sources usually remove 3 durability points to the armor, except cacti (only one point).
Damage taken that armor doesn't protect (such as falling or drowning) will not damage the armor.

The following tables shows the durability per unit of material of each piece of armor, compared to that of the boots. Note that the durability per unit does not depend on the material.

HelmetChestplateLeggingsBoots
durability/unit68%61%66%100%

This means that for the same number of leather/iron ingots/gold ingots/chain/diamond, boots can take 1,5 more damage than leggings.

Thus, chestplate and leggings offer more defense points per unit, but have a lesser durability per unit.
Armor can get protection enchantments such as "Protection III" or "Fire protection IV". The maximum level of a protection enchantment is IV (4). Protection enchantments stack (up to a cap). The type of protection enchantment determines whether the protection enchantment comes into effect, according to the following table:

EnchantmentDamage reduced for
ProtectionAll
Fire protectionFire, lava, and Blaze shots
Blast protectionExplosions
Projectile protectionArrows and Ghast/Blaze shots
Feather fallingFall damage (including ender pearls)

This means that "Protection" is always at least as good as for example "Fire protection", even against fire damage (with the exception of "Feather falling", see below).

The enchantment damage reduction is applied to the damage left after the armor's basic effect, and the base "enchantment protection factor" (EPF) of an enchanted item is
floor ( (6 + level * level) / 2 )

Which gives the following EPF for enchantments of level I-IV:
LevelEPF
I3
II5
III7
IV11

For Feather falling, the EPF of the specific piece is doubled.

The total EPF is the sum for all armor pieces, and capped at 25. An EPF of 25 can be reached by two level III pieces and one level IV piece (2*7+11=25). This also means that Feather Falling is unneccesary to reduce fall damage if you can reach an EPF of 25 without Feather falling boots.

The actual EPF applied is randomized to between 50% and 100% of the EPF calculated above, rounded up, and capped at 20. Each level of the actual EPF reduces damage by 4%, for a maximum damage reduction of 80% from enchantments. Since this is applied after the base armor damage reduction (80% for diamond), you get a total 89.6% to 96% damage reduction for a diamond armor set with an EPF of 25, for damage which is mitigated by unenchanted armor (fx fall damage is not mitigated by unenchanted armor).[2]

*-I'm paraphrasing since it is said in past tense else where what each defense point calculates into. Still accurate to the best of my knowledge.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be off topic. I was merely trying to answer a question. You have done that sufficiently, and I thank you for your input! Let's all hope the server returns soon.

 

[BeasttRecon]

Server down still
+ @Kainzo you're the best for making the dynmap auto-update xD
All the towns on HC look amazing now that I can see them all updated!

 

[Rumblestikk]

All other servers work expect HC. I'm sad in the pants right now.

Im getting "

Web files are not matched with plugin version: All files need to be same version (0.40-1180)"​

Right now for the map, I think it's because server is like online but its not....

 

[Kainzo]

I run a server, I know a little more about these things. Could we be "online" too? Yes. I could disable the protection of our data and run in offline with xauth enabled (and no database) - meaning any hacker could compromise your HeroLevels/coin/Items.

Other servers are NOT 'up'
Unless;
1) They are running in offline mode, usually unprotected
2) The server's DNS was propogated randomly sooner than ours

The session/auth servers are being hammered therefore
You get errors like this.

Map works perfectly for me.

 

[Dwarfers]

Works again for me, googlechrome is dumb and makes it like freeze and never load, firefox worked fine.

I'd clear your cache/settings - I'm on chrome and it seems fine

Love how much you can zoom in now on the map. Looks great Kainzo, keep up the great work man.

[Theazian]

Nice, Xauth time. Great stuff here Kainzo

 

[Kainzo]

Currently, users can connect if using SPOUTCRAFT - (authenication is required)

 

[Dwarfers]

Yeah, I don't use spout, I log in and then get disconnected by the server 3 seconds later. How much more longer till everyone can log in probably?

what if I've registered my password and later forget?

I'm sorry. Maybe I came at you a little off.

I wasn't saying I knew anything about servers. I just knew that all the other servers I had I could join.

Specifically Uin and I we're playing Hungergames after the error stopped, but HC still said 0/200 and we were getting the message "AuthServerPatching Tiny.cc/HCSMP"
