A player with Stardust Armor and a Stardust Guardian

Stardust Armor is a Hardmode armor set that is crafted using Stardust Fragments and Luminite Bars. This set increases the max minion count and the damage that the minion does, making it ideal for summoning minions and weapons. A full set summons a Stardust Guardian which follows the player around. The Guardian can be placed as a stationary minion by double tapping down and pointing to a location. When hit with the Stardust Guardian's explosion, enemies target the Guardian instead. It cannot be placed midair much like the Staff of the Frost Hydra. You may return the Guardian to yourself by holding down. The Guardian is dyed by the pet slot.

Crafting this set requires a total of 36 Luminite Bars (144 Luminite) and 45 Stardust Fragments.

Tips

  • Using Stardust armor, is possible to have 11 minions plus the Guardian.
  • Using the Optic Staff, it is possible to have 23 minions fighting for you total, along with the stationary minions.

Notes

  • All armors made from luminite currently have no sell value. This is likely to change in a future patch.
  • Although the tooltips don't explicitly say, the helmet increases the max number of minions by 1, the plate by 2, and the leggings by 2, for a total of 5 extra minions in addition to the guardian.

Anomalies

  • The Stardust Guardian does not count towards the player's total minions, so when Steam players attempt to earn the "You and What Army?" this should be taken into consideration.

History

  • 1.3.0.3: The guardian can now be dyed with dye used for the vanity pet slot.
