What it does

Players craft the Armored Elytra Smithing Table, and the Netherite Upgrade template applied to a Netherite Chestplate together with an Elytra produces the armored wings. The chestplate's enchantments carry over to the result. The recipe accepts only Netherite chestplates, and the mod adds several new variants of the armored wings. Server owners install it on the server, while players may add it to their clients. Files cover 1.21.6 – 26.3 on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and the code is released under the MIT License, which is not open source.
