Hello,I noticed that my Diamond Chestplate is at is 1/3 durability left while other set have a normal durability.
Normaly the chestplate is the most durable but in that case,is the one that is getting broke fast.

Is it Normal? Did those overpowerded skeleton have something to do with it?
Im using the lastest Snapshot 13w05b.

They are enchanted,but none of them have unbreaking,only projectile and protection.

So the chest piece has unbreaking and your other pieces don't? Any other enchantments on it? Sounds like it could be an issue with the new ability to add unbreaking to armor if that is the case. I remember a case about a month ago in the snapshots where that occurred. What version are you playing on?

Snapshot 13w05b,btw i say none of them have unbreaking,but there the enchant and durability left of my set.

Diamond Helm:
Fire protection IV
Aqua Afinity I
Respiration III
Durability: 157/363

Diamond Chestplate:
Projectile Protection IV
Thorn I
Durability: 187/528

Diamond Legging:
Protection IV
Durability: 291/495

Diamond Boot:
Projectile Protection IV
Feather Falling IV
Durability: 295/429

Also here a pic:

I suspect it could be thorns. Perhaps when it proc's it damages your durability?

I ran a search on the bug tracking site and nothing there is reported like that. You might do a little more research and then post a report there if you're sure there is an issue.

Well,one of my friend say that was the thorn enchant draining the durability,i already hated that enchant before,but now i hate it more.

That would be fun if they let us know that the enchant drain the durability,i try to check on minecraft wiki,and i see nothing about it :/

I don't think it is supposed to. You should file a bug report.

Thorns is suppose to take durability. It's not a bug.

Aha! I overlooked the line that says "extra wear on the armor". Holy smokes, if Thorns 1 has that much of an effect on durability with only 15% proc, imagine how quickly Thorns 3 with 45% proc rate would have damaged your armor.
