All that glitters is not gold.<\/p>\n

## \ud83e\udd14 How does it work?
\nCraft Fake armor like any other Armor, but use Dye instead of valuable Materials. Fake Armor cam be worn, but provides no Armor. It can be also used to decorate Armor Stands.
\nYellow Dye -> 8x Gold
\nCyan Dye -> 8x Diamond
\nBlack Dye -> 8x Netherite
\nLight Gray Dye -> 8x Chainmail
\nGray Dye -> 8x Iron
\nBrown Dye -> 8x Leather
\nOrange Dye -> 8x Copper
