Each armor point reduces damage by 4% (increasing additively). Armor points are signified by half a shirt on the armor bar above the health bar. The effectiveness of armor points is decreased as the strength of incoming attacks increase, an effect lessened by armor toughness. Armor toughness does not have a visual indicator bar. Chestplate durability is decreased by 1 for every {{hp|4}} of incoming damage (rounded down, but never below 1). Different chestplate types have different enchantability from one another, a value that affects the strength of enchantments received directly though enchanting tables. Netherite chestplates provide a knockback resistance of 1 (10%).

A chestplate can be repaired in an [[Minecraft:anvil]] by adding units of the tiers' repair material, with each repair material restoring 25% the chestplate' maximum durability, rounded down. Two chestplates of the same tier can also be combined in an anvil. Both methods preserve the chestplate's enchantments.

Template:Infobox item A chestplate (the leather variety being known as a tunic) is a piece of Minecraft:armor that covers the upper body of the player. There are seven tiers of chestplate: leather, copper, golden, chainmail, iron, diamond, and netherite.

Usage

Chestplates can be placed in the chest slot of a player's Minecraft:inventory for activation.

Statistics

Each armor point reduces damage by 4% (increasing additively). Armor points are signified by half a shirt on the armor bar above the health bar. The effectiveness of armor points is decreased as the strength of incoming attacks increase, an effect lessened by armor toughness. Armor toughness does not have a visual indicator bar. Chestplate durability is decreased by 1 for every Template:Hp of incoming damage (rounded down, but never below 1). Different chestplate types have different enchantability from one another, a value that affects the strength of enchantments received directly though Minecraft:enchanting tables. Netherite chestplates provide a knockback resistance of 1 (10%).

Template:Grinding

Unit repair

Template:Main Template:Repairing with Anvils A chestplate can be repaired in an Minecraft:anvil by adding units of the Minecraft:tiers' repair material, with each repair material restoring 25% the chestplate' maximum durability, rounded down. Two chestplates of the same tier can also be combined in an anvil. Both methods preserve the chestplate's Minecraft:enchantments.

Enchantments

A chestplate can receive the following Minecraft:enchantments:

Name Description Max Level Method Weight
Minecraft:Protection<ref group=note name=exc>Protection, Projectile Protection, Blast Protection, and Fire Protection are mutually exclusive.</ref> Increases overall damage reduction. IV Template:BlockLink
Template:BlockLink 		10
Minecraft:Projectile Protection<ref group=note name="exc"/> Increases damage reduction against projectiles. IV Template:BlockLink
Template:BlockLink 		5
Minecraft:Blast Protection<ref group=note name="exc"/> Increases damage reduction against explosions. IV Template:BlockLink
Template:BlockLink 		2
Minecraft:Fire Protection<ref group=note name="exc"/> Increases damage reduction against fire. IV Template:BlockLink
Template:BlockLink 		5
Minecraft:Thorns Deals returning damage to attackers. III Template:BlockLink
Template:BlockLink 		1
Minecraft:Unbreaking Grants a chance to negate durability consumption. III Template:BlockLink
Template:BlockLink 		5
Minecraft:Mending Repairs the chestplate when obtaining Minecraft:experience. I Template:BlockLink 2
Minecraft:Curse of Vanishing The chestplate vanishes on death, not dropping as an item. I Template:BlockLink 1
Minecraft:Curse of Binding Removes the ability to de-equip the chestplate. I Template:BlockLink 1

Template:Notelist

Armor trimming

It is possible to upgrade armor with trims. This requires a Minecraft:smithing template, a chestplate, 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.
