You just need this:

public override void UpdateArmorSet(Player player) {
    // your other codes here
    player.palladiumRegen = true;
}

Then vanilla Terraria will do the rest.

     if (downedBoss2 == true)
     {
     }

You have to write NPC. in from of the downedBoss2. And you don't need "== true".

if(NPC.downedBoss2){
    // do your thing
}

My question : Is it a good idea to cache item/buff/projectile etc IDs? Of course I would reset/set them as my mod unloads/loads.

using static Terraria.ModLoader.ModContent;

public class IDs{
    public class Item{
        // some static fields that hold itemtype values
        public static int TestItem;
    }
    public class Buff{
        // same here
        public static int TestBuff;
    }
    internal static Initialize(){
        // I would use ModContent.ItemType<T>() etc to set the values of the fields
        Item.TestItem = ItemType<TestItem>();
        Buff.TestBuff = BuffType<TestBuff>();
    }
}

Something like this.

i cant get the wand to fuction can you make me a example / put this in my code?

 

[NameTaken]

You just need this:

public override void UpdateArmorSet(Player player) {
// your other codes here
player.palladiumRegen = true;
}

Then vanilla Terraria will do the rest.

well, that doesnt work either, instead of getting the regen after striking an enemy, you have it when you dont have max health, not quite how palladium armor works.

Clearly the player.palladiumRegen is the code for the buff, as it also shows the hearts when regenerating.

 

[Creeper da Snek]

You don't need anything special to do this.
In your UpdateArmorSet:

player.setBonus = Language.GetTextValue("ArmorSetBonus.Palladium");
player.onHitRegen = true;

finally lol

 

[Butterspewn]

For NPC selling, do this:

        public override void SetupShop(Chest shop, ref int nextSlot) {
            if (downedBoss2 == true)
            {
                shop.item[nextSlot].SetDefaults(ItemID);
                nextSlot++;
            }
        }

Replace ItemID with and Item by it's ID.
For normal and unprepared if statements, do this:

     if (downedBoss2 == true)
     {
     }

do you know what namespace i need to use since it says that "downedBoss" does not exist in the current context. The namespaces im currently using are Terraria, Terraria.ID and Terraria.Modloader.

After you get hit? For that, you'll need to look into a ModPlayer: tModLoader/tModLoader
