As most of you know the end game of Minecraft is really boring adventure wise. With that in mind I had an idea to resurrect the god armor.

The idea is to make these quite challenging, so for fire protection we will have to add Blaze King to the game.

The Blaze King spawns naturally in every fortress (1 per structure). It has 15x more health than a regular blaze and shoots 5 fire balls instead of 3.
The damage is 5x the blaze and it has everlasting fire; meaning it won't go out unless you jump in water (or any other method to put out regular fire). It's also immune to projectiles.

For the loot, It drops 1 of 4 items. Its crown (for helmets), Shield (for chestplates), rods (for legs and boots) and an upgrade template. The first 2 with a 20% chance, the rods with a 40% chamce and the template also with a 20% chance.

You can put this only on netherite gear and each item will give you one level of fire protection; Meaning you'll need 4 shields to max out the chestplate. 

At level 4 it has the same effect as the enchantment. It also gives the armor a little bit of molten lava texture; Not a lot only a few pixels per piece.

Notes:

1.If combined with fire protection the max level will give you immunity to all fire damge.

2.If the upgrade is put on any other type of armor (diamond for example) each level can multiply the loss of durability. 20x for the first level, 40x for second, 60x for third, and 100x for level four.

3.Fire resistance potion does negate the fire damage of blaze king but only if upgraded to level 2 (which also needs to be added) (also the fire will stay on the screen) and I have an idea that it can be upgraded with blaze embers which are only dropped by the blaze king.

4. On the topic of blaze embers, they can eternally power a brewing stand.
