A totem of undying is a new item that was added in Minecraft. It isn't armor that you wear but rather it is an item that you hold it in your hand (similar to a shield). If a player experiences fatal damage while holding a totem of undying, the totem of undying will restore 1 health point and give the player Regeneration II for 40 seconds and Absorption II for 5 seconds.
Let's explore how to use a totem of undying.

When the inventory opens, you should see boxes that display the armor items that you are wearing and a 5th box that displays the item you are currently holding in your other hand. In PC/Mac, the 5th box has a picture of a shield.
