Chestplate

Chestplates are a type of armor that covers the upper body of the player. There are five types of chestplates: leather, chainmail, iron, diamond  and gold .

Mobs
Zombies and skeletons have a small chance to spawn wearing any armor. There is an 8.5% chance (9.5% with Looting I, 10.5% with Looting II and 11.5% with Looting III) that the mob will drop a chestplate upon death. It will usually be badly damaged, and rarely may be enchanted.

Vindicators and Pillagers spawn in raids have a 4.1% chance (5.12% on hard) to drop iron chestplate, It will usually be badly damaged, and may be enchanted.

Usage
Chestplates can be placed in the 2nd armor slot of a player's inventory for activation.

Defense points
Defense points are each signified by chestplates in the armor bar above the health bar. 1 defense point is half of a chestplate in the armour bar. Each defense point will reduce any damage dealt to the player which is absorbed by armor by 4%, increasing additively with the number of defense points. Different materials and combinations of armor provide different levels of defense.

The following table shows the amount of defense points added by chestplates.

Durability
The following table shows the amount of damage each piece of armor can absorb before being destroyed.

Any "hit" from a damage source that can be blocked by armor will remove one point of durability from each piece of armor worn. Damage taken that armor doesn't protect (such as falling or drowning) will not damage the armor, even if it is enchanted to protect against that type of damage. The following chart displays how many hits chest plates can endure.

Repair
Chestplates may be repaired by using them along with some of their crafting material (leather, gold ingots, iron ingots or diamonds) in an anvil. Chainmail chestplates may be repaired in this way with iron ingots. They may also be repaired by crafting them together with another chestplate of the same material.
