However, the armor will remain in the player's inventory. --- You are welcome to support me via the following links:<br> <a href="https://ko-fi.com/somyk"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/somykOS/web/c03742bd86ca2ce0f6f39bcd3cfe683ad98926a2/public/external/kofi_s_logo_nolabel.svg" alt="ko-fi" width="100"/> </a> <a href="https://send.monobank.ua/jar/8RCzun35pC"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/somykOS/web/5ac2e685429eb0cc369dc220ce3b93d2a22893c0/public/external/monobank_logo.svg" alt="monobank" width="80"/> </a>
