A '''diamond helmet''' is a variant of [[Minecraft:helmet]] that is crafted from [[Minecraft:diamond]]s. It is the second-highest [[Minecraft:tier]] of helmet, having higher armor points, armor toughness, durability, and [[Minecraft:enchantability]] than [[Minecraft:turtle shell]]s. It can be upgraded into a [[Minecraft:netherite helmet]] using a [[Minecraft:netherite ingot]] and [[Minecraft:netherite upgrade]] at a [[Minecraft:smithing table]].

=== Mob loot ===
[[Minecraft:Zombie]]s, [[Minecraft:husk]]s, [[Minecraft:skeleton]]s, [[Minecraft:stray]]s, and [[Minecraft:bogged]] have a very small chance to spawn wearing diamond armor. There is a 8.5% chance (9.5% with [[Minecraft:Looting]] I, 10.5% with Looting II and 11.5% with Looting III) for the mob to drop the helmet they're wearing upon death unless they are spawned from an [[Minecraft:ominous trial spawner]]. The dropped helmet is usually badly damaged, and may be [[Minecraft:enchanted]] with enchantment levels 5-19.

=== Trading ===
{{Trade sources|Enchanted Diamond Helmet}}

== Usage ==
When worn, a diamond helmet provides {{armor|3}} [[Minecraft:armor points]] and {{armor|2}} [[Minecraft:armor toughness]].

A diamond helmet can be repaired in an [[Minecraft:anvil]] by adding [[Minecraft:diamond]]s, with each diamond restoring 25% the helmet's maximum durability, rounded down. Two diamond helmets can also be combined in an anvil. Both methods preserve the helmet's [[Minecraft:enchantment]]s.

==== Repair ====
Diamond helmets may be [[Minecraft:repair]]ed by using them along with some diamonds in an [[Minecraft:anvil]]. They may also be repaired by crafting them together with another diamond helmet.

=== Enchantments ===
A helmet can receive the following [[Minecraft:enchantment]]s.

=== Armor trimming ===
It is possible to upgrade armor with trims. This requires a [[Minecraft:smithing template]], a diamond helmet, and an ingot or crystal ([[Minecraft:iron ingot]], [[Minecraft:copper ingot]], [[Minecraft:gold ingot]], [[Minecraft:netherite ingot]], [[Minecraft:emerald]], [[Minecraft:redstone dust]], [[Minecraft:lapis lazuli]], [[Minecraft:amethyst shard]], [[Minecraft:nether quartz]], [[Minecraft:diamond]], or [[Minecraft:resin brick]]).

These trims have no effect on the gameplay or strength of the armor.
