Describe the bug

For comparison here are some stats:

Crucible Steel Armor:
20 armor
6 armor toughness
Slight knockback resistance
~1,200 max durability
To repair: crucible steel ingots

Molten Armor:
20 armor
7 armor toughness
Strong Fire resistance
~300 max durability
To repair: requires Aether

Molten armor has +1 armor toughness and fire resistance but also has harder repair conditions and only 25% of the durability of Crucible Steel.

I was told Molten Armor was nerfed because it was too strong previously which I can understand.

After obtaining and realizing that I couldn't immediately repair it + it breaks 4x faster than crucible steel, I decided to switch back to Crucible.
