Overview
Diamond Leggings are pieces of armor in the Armor category of Minecraft, obtained through crafting them and End City chest loot. Diamond Leggings cannot be stacked, so they take up a full inventory slot each. With a base durability of 495 uses, they can be repaired and enchanted.
When enchanted, it can carry 10 different enchantments, including Protection, Fire Protection, Blast Protection, and Projectile Protection. Worn, Diamond Leggings are worth 6 armor points of the 20 a full set of diamond armor is worth. Diamond also carries 2 armor toughness, which is what keeps a heavy hit from cutting straight through the points. With 495 durability, Diamond Leggings last 495 light hits, or about 165 blows of twelve damage, because a piece loses one point of durability for every four damage in a single hit. Enchantability decides what the table hands back for the same levels, and Diamond Leggings sit at 10 (level with armadillo scute): chainmail at 12 does better and iron at 9 worse. Of the 3 kinds of generated chest that can hold it, bastion treasure chests are the best bet at about 26% per chest.
