Armor Types and Damage Types

Since 1.21 is the combat update; Mojang could add new armor and weapons. Other changes could be made to existing weapons such as adding damage types. For example swords could have slashing damage, arrows piercing, and axes blunt. New armor types could be added to counter types of damage. Plate, chain mail, and leather would be the main types of armor. Each armor type would be weak against some types of damage; however, strong against others. Leather could be weak against piercing but strong against blunt and slashing. Adding new types of armor and weapon damage means that players would have to be more prepared. I believe this change would also add variety to the games combat.
