    Description:

    The Netherite Plated Elytra combines elytra flight with netherite-grade protection: when worn in the chest slot it allows gliding while granting 10 armor points, 3.0 toughness, and 1.0 knockback resistance, provides fire and lava resistance, and has its own durability. Right-click while holding the item to equip it in the chest slot, then jump while falling to glide as with a standard elytra; it uses the vanilla elytra model and texture, plays the normal equip sound, and preserves slightly reduced rocket boost behavior.

    Netherite Plated Elytra

    Quickstart

    1. Craft the Netherite Plated Elytra at a Smithing Table using a Netherite Upgrade Smithing Template, an Elytra, and a Netherite Ingot.
    2. Right-click while holding it to instantly equip it in your chest slot.
    3. Jump off a high point and jump again while falling to begin gliding — exactly like a standard elytra.
    4. Use firework rockets to boost, keeping in mind the heavier plating reduces their thrust.

    Overview

    The Netherite Plated Elytra is a single chest-slot item that merges the freedom of elytra flight with the protective stats of netherite armor. You no longer have to choose between gliding and wearing a chestplate — this item does both at once.

    What It Adds

    PropertyValue
    Armor10 points
    Toughness3.0
    Knockback Resistance1.0
    Durability864
    Fire & Lava ResistantYes
    GlidingYes (elytra mechanics)

    The item appears in both the Combat and Tools creative inventory tabs.

    How To Use

    • Equipping: Right-click while holding the item to put it directly into your chest slot. You can also drag it into the chest slot in your inventory screen.
    • Gliding: Once equipped, gliding works identically to a vanilla elytra — jump while airborne or falling to spread the wings and glide.
    • Rocket Boosting: Firework rockets still provide a boost, but the weight of the netherite plating reduces horizontal acceleration by roughly 8% each boost tick. You can still travel long distances; just expect slightly less punch per rocket.
    • Fire & Lava: Like all netherite equipment, the item itself is immune to fire and lava damage, and the wearer gains fire/lava damage resistance through the piece.
    • Durability: The elytra takes damage during flight and when struck. Repair it at an Anvil with Phantom Membranes.

    Crafting And Obtaining

    Upgrade a regular Elytra at a Smithing Table using the recipe below. The recipe is available as soon as you join a world.

    Abilities And Mechanics

    • Armor stats apply only while the item is in the chest slot.
    • Gliding uses the same wing-spread model and animations as the vanilla elytra.
    • Knockback resistance of 1.0 means you are fully immune to knockback while wearing it.
    • Reduced rocket boost is intentional — the heavier plating makes firework thrust less effective than with a plain elytra.
    • The item is fireproof, so it will never burn if dropped in lava or fire.

    Progression And Strategy

    • Craft this after obtaining a regular Elytra and reaching late-game Netherite tier — it requires a Netherite Upgrade Smithing Template and a Netherite Ingot.
    • Replace your netherite chestplate with this to keep strong chest protection without sacrificing the ability to fly, ideal for exploration or PvP servers where aerial mobility matters.
    • Pair with high-level Protection and Unbreaking enchantments (applied via Anvil) to maximize both defense and durability.
    • Because rocket boost is slightly dampened, consider carrying more rockets per journey than you normally would, or supplement with Riptide tridents for burst speed.

    Smart Armor

    Smart Pearl Armor is a dynamic, upgradeable four-piece set that starts at Leather and can be upgraded through Iron, Diamond and Netherite tiers via the Smart Pearl Upgrades GUI (press G while wearing); each piece passively absorbs XP, always grants Mending, reduces incoming damage based on your lowest-tier piece, and wearing the full set grants Diamond-level regeneration and Netherite-level strength. While wearing the full set press H to charge and store incoming damage and press B to release it as a spherical knockback/damage blast, and the armor emits Ender Pearl–like particles and will automatically teleport you to the nearest safe spot if you are on fire or in lava. The Upgrades screen has been redesigned with a larger, cleaner layout, properly spaced buttons, aligned inventory slots, and improved stat text and colors for better readability; you can also open the upgrade screen by right-clicking any Smart Pearl armor piece in your hand, stored enchantments persist on each piece, and the upgrade GUI will no longer close unexpectedly when interacting with armor.

    The Bronze Enhanced Armor Set is a four-piece armor collection that offers 1.3 times the protection of iron armor, with enhanced defense, durability, and enchantability. Each piece can be equipped normally and appears in the Combat creative tab. When wearing two or more pieces of the set simultaneously, you gain the Bronze Enhanced set bonus: every time you take damage from any source, all equipped Bronze Enhanced armor pieces automatically restore 1 durability point, making the armor self-repairing during combat and significantly extending its lifespan.

    The Voidite Aura Armor set is an incredibly powerful armor set that provides five times the protection of Netherite armor, including enhanced durability, toughness, and knockback resistance. When you wear the complete four-piece set, it activates the Void Aura ability, which pulses every 2 seconds to weaken all hostile mobs within 20 blocks by applying Weakness and Slowness effects, while simultaneously healing you and any nearby players by 2 hearts. Simply equip all four pieces—helmet, chestplate, leggings, and boots—to activate the full set bonus and unleash the Void Aura's protective power.

    Eternal Eclipse Sovereign Armor

    Profile picture for darkfenyxdarkfenyxCreativeMode Pro

    The Eternal Eclipse Sovereign Armor is a four-piece cosmic set that outclasses Netherite: the helmet grants permanent night vision, reveals hostile mobs through walls, and contains a built-in water-breathing reservoir (5-minute base capacity) that is consumed while underwater and slowly recharges out of water — sneak and use a Water Breathing (or Long Water Breathing) potion on the helmet to expand its capacity (potion consumed, empty bottle returned, on-screen feedback provided). The chestplate reduces incoming damage and now adds two mobility tools: press jump again while airborne to perform one extra midair double jump (resets on ground), and simply move into a 2-block-tall wall while facing it to mantle up onto the ledge if there is clear space above (mantle triggers with particles/sound and a short cooldown to prevent repeats). The leggings boost speed and jump and provide fall-damage protection while sprinting, and the boots create a landing shockwave that knocks back nearby entities and grant a strong swim-speed boost while touching water. Wearing the full set unlocks Eclipse Ascension — increased damage resistance, health regeneration in darkness or at night, a fear aura that repels hostile mobs, and an automatic low-health Eclipse Mode that grants a burst of speed and resistance.

    Profile picture for nullthedeadnullthedeadCreativeMode Pro

    The Nightgem Emerald Diamond Armor is a powerful four-piece armor set that provides 1.6 times the protection of standard diamond armor, featuring enhanced defense, durability, and toughness across all pieces. When you equip the complete set (helmet, chestplate, leggings, and boots), you'll receive a continuous Night Vision effect that allows you to see perfectly in the dark without any time limit. If you remove even one piece of the armor, the Night Vision bonus will immediately disappear, so keep the full set equipped to maintain the vision enhancement.
