[Protection 4 Chestplate]
[Protection 4 Leggins]
[Protection 4 Boots]
Set 2 - 9k
[Protection 4 , Aqua Affinity 1 , Respiration 3 Helmet]
[Protection 4 Chestplate]
[Protection 4 Leggins]
[Protection 4 Boots]

Really great deals if you ask me on both them sets.
If you wish to buy, message me here saying which of the 2 sets you would like and Ill catch you in game.

Anyhow down to the fun facts that I recommend every person that PVPs on a Vanilla server should know.
Take a look at this formula;
Fire Protection IV + Blast Protection IV + Projectile Protection IV = Protection IV
This means that Protection IV is a combination of Projectile, Blast and Fire together. Meaning it is better for combat than what any one of these would be because Protection is a combination of all 3.
This information alone is useful for the people that wish to PVP. Although, there is a bit more information you might want to look into, as show below.
There is something called "enchantment protection factor" or also known as "EPF". This is the units of measurement for Protection gear being worn. The reason this is implemented into the game is because there is a limit to how much protection you can have.
Protection 4 - 11 EPF
Protection 3 - 7 EPF
Protection 2 - 5 EPF
Protection 1 - 3 EPF
The EPF limit is 25.
Meaning if you have a full Protection 4 set you have 44 EPF, although you are capped at 25 EPF. Also someone else is wearing all Protection 3 gear they also have a EPF of 28 and they are also capped at 25 EPF.

This means that you ( wearing full Pro4 ) and someone else ( wearing full Pro3 ) are equally armored.
This also could work as 1 Pro4 (11) and 1 Pro3 (7) and 1 Pro2 (5) and 1 Pro1 (3) is also as armored. 11+7+5+3 = 26 EPF. It also could work out other ways 3 x Pro3 + 1 x Pro2 = 26 EPF. And many other ways.

The point I'm getting at is, People that wear full Protection 4 could benefit just as much with using less valuable items and in time could easily double there strongest gear instead of wasting their EPF.

I hope this little bit of information helped.

Wait, you're saying that all that time and diamond I spent upgrading all my Protection III armour to Protection IV armour was wasted?

Actually, Resistance is a potion effect caused by Beacons, Enchanted Golden Apples and the currently unobtainable Potion of Resistance.

Interesting info about armor / enchants. A little confused about this, though:

Doesn't Protection also reduce damage from melee sources like punches and swords? If so, then where does that enter into the equation?

Basic Protection in 1.5 will JUST be for swords, and melee attacks. And everything makes contact with with. Lava, explosions, arrows... All will hit you/be close to you. Also, some people wear full Protection IV because parts may break in a fight, and you'll still have full points, though if your hat goes, you'll want another one to pull on so you don't take damage from having missing armour.
