Minecraft:Diamond Horse Armor: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 11:09, 17 June 2026

Template:Infobox item Diamond horse armor is the second-strongest tier of Minecraft:horse armor. Unlike other Minecraft:diamond items, it cannot be Minecraft:crafted and is only obtainable from Minecraft:chest loot in various Minecraft:structures.

Obtaining

Template:LootChestItem

Usage

Only regular adult Minecraft:horses and Minecraft:zombie horses can wear diamond horse armor; baby horses, Minecraft:donkeys, Minecraft:mules and Minecraft:skeleton horses cannot be equipped with armor.

Equipping

Diamond horse armor can be equipped to a horse either by manually placing it in its respective slot (Template:SlotSprite) in the horse’s inventory, or by pressing Use on the horse while holding it.

The diamond horse armor can be removed either by manually removing it from the armor slot or by using Minecraft:shears on the horse.

Protection

When equipped, diamond horse armor gives Template:Armor Minecraft:armor points and 2 armor toughness.

Horse armor protects Minecraft:zombie horses from burning in sunlight.

If a horse dies while equipped with diamond horse armor, it drops its normal loot, a Minecraft:saddle (if it had one), and the horse armor.

Upgrading

Template:Smithing

Durability

Unlike player armor or wolf armor, horse armor does not have Minecraft:durability. This means a single diamond horse armor can be used infinitely unless it is destroyed through other means.

Enchanting

Unlike player armor, horse armor cannot be enchanted in Survival mode. However, Template:In Creative mode, horse armor can be used with an Minecraft:anvil to enchant with Minecraft:Thorns, Minecraft:Feather Falling, Minecraft:Protection, Minecraft:Fire Protection, Minecraft:Projectile Protection, Minecraft:Blast Protection, Minecraft:Curse of Binding, and Minecraft:Curse of Vanishing. Other enchantments can be applied, but they have no effect.
