Mob loot

[edit | edit source]

Zombies, husks, skeletons, strays, and bogged have a small chance to spawn wearing armor, which may include an iron chestplate. 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.

In Bedrock Edition, vindicators and pillagers spawning in raids have a 4.16% chance (5.128% on hard difficulty) to drop an iron chestplate. The dropped chestplate is usually badly damaged, and has a 50% chance of being enchanted with a random enchantment.

) armor points.

Repairing

[edit | edit source]

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

Ingredients Crafting recipe Description
Damaged The durability of the two chestplates is added together, plus an extra 5% durability.
Ingredients Grinding recipe Description
2x Damaged The durability of the two chestplates is added together, plus an extra 5% durability.

Iron Ingot

An iron chestplate can also be repaired in an 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

[edit | edit source]

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, emerald, redstone dust, lapis lazuli, amethyst shard, nether quartz, diamond, or resin brick).

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