Minecraft:Golden Chestplate

Template:Infobox item A golden chestplate is a variant of Minecraft:chestplate crafted from Minecraft:gold ingots. It is the fifth-highest Minecraft:tier of chestplate, having higher armor points than a Minecraft:copper chestplate. Like all Minecraft:golden armor, Minecraft:piglins are attracted to golden chestplates, and do not attack any player wearing one.

Mob loot

Minecraft:Zombies, Minecraft:husks, Minecraft:skeletons, Minecraft:strays, Minecraft:bogged, and Minecraft:piglins have a small chance to spawn wearing 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 chestplate they're wearing upon death unless they are spawned from an Minecraft:ominous trial spawner. The dropped chestplate is usually badly damaged, and may be Minecraft:enchanted with enchantment levels 5-19.

Usage

When worn, a golden chestplate provides Template:Armor Minecraft:armor points.

Piglins

As with other pieces of gold armor, Minecraft:piglins do not attack players wearing golden chestplates unless provoked or attacked.

Piglins are also attracted towards golden chestplates on the ground and equip them after inspecting them.

Repairing

Two damaged golden chestplates can be combined through Minecraft:crafting or using the Minecraft:grindstone. The durability of the used golden 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

An golden chestplate can also be repaired in an Minecraft:anvil by adding Minecraft:gold 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 Minecraft:enchantments.
