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

==Armor Tiers and Durability== <!--T:3-->
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.

==== Chain Armor Debuffs ==== <!--T:4-->
Different types of [[armor]]s offer different protection values and durability. Additionally, they may hinder your movements speed and add to your hunger gain.<br>
With moderate durability and minor penalty in walking speed, HP regeneration and bow accuracy/draw charge - depending on the metal used - the chain armor still makes for a good choice both for exploration and combat. <br>

==Usage== <!--T:6-->
==Usage== <!--T:6-->
Chain armor is used in conjunction with either scales or plates to make [[Scale armor|scale armor]] or [[Plate armor|plate armor]], respectively.
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]].


<!--T:7-->
== 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.
