History
Edit
Cobalt Armor (Prior to 1.0.3)
Edit
The Cobalt armor was originally what is now known as the Jungle Armor before the 1.0.3 patch. Like the Jungle Armor prior to the 1.0.5 patch, all three pieces were rare drops from Hornets or Man Eaters. It was considered to be an improved version of the Meteor Armor prior to the 1.0.3 patch, giving the same mana regeneration but having a better set bonus with higher defense.
When wearing the complete set, the player emitted particles similar to that of the Shadow Orb and left a motion blur as they moved. They also gained an unlisted attack speed bonus similar to that of the Shadow Armor when wearing the full set.
The 1.0.3 patch removed Cobalt Armor from Terraria and replaced it with Jungle Armor which has identical stats and set bonus, but a different appearance. The reason for its removal was due to not fitting the Underground Jungle theme it was found in.
Cobalt Helmet (Prior to 1.0.3)
Edit
A helmet that adds 6 defense and slowly refills mana over time. Dropped by Hornets and Man Eaters in the Underground Jungle.
Cobalt Breastplate (Prior to 1.0.3)
Edit
A breastplate which adds 7 defense and slowly regenerates mana over time. Dropped by Hornets and Man Eaters in the Underground Jungle.
Cobalt Greaves (Prior to 1.0.3)
Edit
Greaves which add 6 defense and slowly regenerate mana over time. Dropped by Hornets and Man Eaters in the Underground Jungle.


Set bonus (Prior to 1.0.3)
Edit
When all three pieces of Cobalt Armor are worn at the same time, its set bonuses include:
- Mana costs reduced by 25%
- Unlisted (10%) attack speed bonus
- Graphical aura and motion blur when moving
