No more choosing between armour and flight! The Armored Elytra system lets you combine any chestplate with an elytra into a single item that provides both the protection of your armour and the ability to fly.

How It Works

  1. Combine in an anvil — place your chestplate and elytra together in an anvil to forge an Armored Elytra
  2. Fly with protection — wear it in your chestplate slot for both flight and armour defense
  3. Split in a grindstone — if you want to separate them, use a grindstone to get both items back

Details

  • Works with any chestplate — iron, diamond, netherite, and even trimmed armour
  • Trim and dye compatibility — armour trims and leather dye colours are preserved when combining
  • Enchantments — both chestplate and elytra enchantments carry over to the combined item
  • Splitting in the grindstone returns both original items with their properties intact
The Armored Elytra renders visually — you'll see both the chestplate armour and elytra wings on your character.
Combine this with Elytra Trims for a fully customized armoured flying setup!
