Minecraft:Chainmail Chestplate

Template:For Template:Infobox item A chainmail chestplateTemplate:Fn is an uncommon variant of Minecraft:chestplate that cannot be crafted, and is only obtainable through other means such as trading. It is the fourth-highest tier of chestplate, having the same armor points as a golden chestplate but with higher durability.

Obtaining

Mob loot

Minecraft:Zombies, Minecraft:husks, skeletons, strays, and bogged have a small chance to spawn wearing armor. There is a 8.5% chance (9.5% with Looting I, 10.5% with Looting II and 11.5% with Looting III) for the mob to drop the chestplate they're wearing upon death unless they are spawned from an ominous trial spawner. The dropped chestplate is usually badly damaged, and may be enchanted with enchantment levels 5-19.

Template:IN, naturally spawned armor worn by a zombie has a 100% drop rate when a zombie is drowned.

Repairing

Two damaged chainmail chestplates can be combined through Minecraft:crafting or using the Minecraft:grindstone. The durability of the used chainmail chestplates are added together, plus an extra 5% durability. Both the crafting table and grindstone methods do not keep the enchantments of either chestplate.

Unit repair

Template:Repairing

A chainmail chestplate can also be repaired in an Minecraft:anvil by adding iron ingots, with each ingot restoring 25% the chestplates' maximum durability, rounded down. Two chestplates of the same tier can also be combined in an anvil. Both methods using the anvil preserves the chestplate's enchantments.

Armor trimming

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

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