No Chestplate
by No Mods
No Chestplate removes the chestplate slot from Minecraft, so players cannot craft, find or wear chest armor on Fabric servers running it.
What it does
Chestplates are deleted as an item type, covering leather, chain, iron, gold, diamond and netherite as well as modded chest armor. Their crafting recipes are gone, loot tables no longer produce them, and mobs do not drop them. Players lose the strongest armor slot, which removes the largest share of defense in combat. Bosses hit harder and exploration becomes more punishing. Only the server must run the mod, while players may leave it out. Files exist for Fabric only, for 1.21 – 1.21.10, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.10 as the latest. No Mods is the author, and the mod is not open source, released under All rights reserved.
