Chain armor is a type of metal [[armor]].
A full set of chain [[armor]] requires smithing 40 [[ingots]] on an [[anvil]].


==Creation== <!--T:2-->
==Creation== <!--T:2-->
The body and leg parts of chain armor are made from [[Leather Jerkin|leather jerkin]] armor parts and chain of any kind. Only the chain helmet requires no prior armor parts and is instead crafted directly from 3 chain.


The easiest way to make chain is to automate a helve hammer to turn 2 ingots into a plate, then place a hot plate on an anvil to remove the voxels required by the chain smithing recipe.
* the anvil must be made of a metal no lower than one "tier" [https://wiki.vintagestory.at/index.php/Chain_armor#Notes below the tier of the ingot]
* the hammer for smithing may be of any metal
* if making plates from copper, bronze, silver, or gold: a crucible and ingot molds are needed
* if making plates from iron or meteoric iron, a bloomery and bloomery chimney are needed
* if making plates from steel, a refractory furnace and stone coffin are needed
* all metal-working requires [[tongs]], a [[firestarter]] or [[torch]], and fuel suitable for the working temperature of the target metal
* in addition to metal chain, 14 [[leather]] is required to craft chain body armor, and 8 leather is required to craft chain leg armor
* optional: a helve hammer may be made of bronze or higher tier

Different types of armors offer different protection values and durability. Additionally, they may hinder your movements speed and add to your hunger gain. While an alternative to [[Brigandine armor]] in terms of stats, with only based on the type of metal it is used.

==Usage== <!--T:6-->
==Usage== <!--T:6-->
Chain armor can be further "improved" into either scale armor or Plate armor.
While chain armor is inherently useful for combat protection, it's also an ingredient in other armor types:
add 2 [[leather]] and 12 scales to make [[Scale armor|scale armor]] or 16 plates to make [[Plate armor|plate armor]].
 
== Notes ==
* Steel ingots and meteoric iron ingots require an iron anvil; iron ingots require a bronze anvil or higher; bronze ingots can be worked on a copper anvil. Attempting to place an ingot on an anvil of a lower tier than required results in an error message instead of smithing menu.
