- ↑ When creating an enchantment offer, the game uses a random enchantment level from 5 to 19. The enchantments are never treasure enchantments.
Usage
Chestplates can be placed in the chest slot of a player's 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 4HP 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 provde a knockback resistance of 1 (10%).

A chestplate can be repaired in an 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.

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, 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.

| Java Edition Classic | |||||||
| June 14, 2009 | Notch discussed how armor would work in Survival mode: "Two types of swords, two types of armor, two types of helmets. The basic versions require iron. The advanced versions require steel, which you make by combining iron and coal. Carrying swords, armor or helmets take up inventory slots, but otherwise have no penalty and work pretty much as you expect (prevent some damage, or cause more damage)". | ||||||
| August 13, 2009 | Notch tested chestplates on the human. They were merely aesthetic at the time and had no effect on gameplay. | ||||||
