Building with it

The enchanted diamond chestplate combines the game's highest armour value with whatever enchantments came with it. Protection IV on this slot is the single biggest reduction in damage taken available, and 528 uses means the enchantments get a long working life.

In practice

Protection IV on a chestplate reduces incoming damage more than any other single enchantment in the game, and an enchanted diamond one found rather than made is a large amount of experience saved. Combined at an anvil with a second piece it can climb higher still. Two enchanted chestplates combined at an anvil can carry more than either one alone, and the prior work penalty only starts climbing after a few combinations. That makes a chest-found enchanted piece worth keeping even when you already wear something better.
