Palladium armor

Palladium armor is a Hardmode armor set crafted from Palladium Bars. It is the alternative to Cobalt armor. Like many Hardmode armor sets, Palladium armor has three different headpiece options, allowing players to focus on magical, melee, or ranged combat.
With the full set equipped, successful attacks trigger the Rapid Healing buff, which heals
2 / 3 HP/s (12 / 15 health over 5 seconds). Further attacks will refresh the duration. The buff is not canceled if the armor is removed. It can be canceled manually by right-clicking the buff icon.
Crafting a one-headpiece set requires 54 Palladium Bars, or 162 Palladium Ore. Crafting all five pieces requires 78 Palladium Bars, or 234 Palladium Ore.

== Notes ==
* The set bonus allows regeneration while afflicted with the Bleeding debuff.
* The buff is triggered even when attacking Critters, like Bunnies and Penguins.
* The buff is also triggered when the player's minions attack.
* The buff is also triggered when you hit a dummy.
== Tips ==
* If the player changes their mind, the helmet piece can be shimmered and crafted into an alternative.
* While not the largest or quickest heal, it can be useful for the beginning of Hardmode, especially when used with ranged weapons, to safely regenerate from a distance.
*Despite having lower defense than Adamantite Armor, Palladium will usually be better at keeping you alive. Comparing the melee versions of the armors, Adamantite has 18 more defense. This means the player will take 9 / / more damage than they would if they had used Adamantite, so as long as you are skilled enough to avoid taking damage for at least every 4.5 / / seconds, Palladium armor might be a better option for survival. 
* The Squire armor, available from the Tavernkeep after defeating a mechanical boss, can be considered an upgrade to Palladium armor. The Squire's Great Helm provides a constant 2 HP/sec regeneration. Later on, the Valhalla Knight armor's breastplate provides 4 HP/sec regeneration.
* If used with the your life regen will increase considerably. Although the effects stack additive.
== Trivia ==
* Lovestruck's cosmetic effect is indentical to the heart particles emitted from Rapid Healing. It is purely visual and offers no healing, however.
* The Palladium armor represents a fuedal European/medival theme
