How to Get Wolf Armor in Minecraft

At long last, Minecraft introduces items to protect and customize your tamed mobs, starting with your faithful wolf. So, where do the Armadillos come in, and how do you actually craft Wolf Armor for your most loyal companion? Let's get to it.

How to Craft Wolf Armor:

You'll need to get your hands on 6 Armadillo Scute to craft your Wolf Armor. In order to do this, you'll need to find yourself a friendly Armadillo.

Where to Find Armadillo Scute:

Armadillos can be found in the savannah biomes and enjoy a diet of Spider Eyes. So, make sure to bring along a pocket of eyeballs to feed and tame your very own Armadillo.

Be warned! Armadillos will roll into protective balls when frightened, so always approach slowly, and make sure there are no other scary mobs nearby that are likely to startle your new armor-plated buddy.

How Good is Wolf Armor in Minecraft?

Well, it's about as good as Diamond Horse Armor! In a demonstration video released on the official Minecraft YouTube channel, footage showed an armored wolf handily surviving a blast from a Creeper, so definitely nothing to sniff at!

When is the Minecraft Wolf Armor Update?

Armadillos are great, and Wolf Armor is even cooler, but when will all of this arrive in live Minecraft? Sadly, we do not yet have an official release date in spite of Wolf Armor being available right now in beta. But we have faith that it won't be long, so make sure to check back with us here at GameLeap as soon as more news drops!
