Chestplate Enchants
Chestplate Enchantments
Chestplate enchantments are special upgrades applied to chestplates via Enchant Crystals.
Each chestplate can hold multiple enchants, and one pair conflicts with each other.
One enchant from the original design was dropped from this pool - Ember Core (full fire immunity, plus a speed boost while burning) was cut because both the Satanic Chestplate and the Hazmat Chestplate already grant genuine fire immunity as an exclusive perk of owning that specific item. Letting any chestplate roll the same effect from a crystal would cheapen that.
Enchant lines appear on the chestplate's lore between the separator lines, above the VortexArtifacts footer.
Rarity Tiers
Rarity controls how often an enchant shows up when rolling a crystal - weights are per-enchant, and higher rolls more often.
| Rarity | Roll Weight | Count |
| Common | 80 | 6 |
| Uncommon | 40 | 8 |
| Rare | 15 | 8 |
| Epic | 5 | 6 |
| Legendary | 2 | 3 |
Enchant Slots
The chestplate follows the standard material progression.
| Chestplate | Enchant Slots |
| Leather Chestplate | 1 |
| Chainmail Chestplate | 2 |
| Copper Chestplate | 3 |
| Golden Chestplate | 3 |
| Iron Chestplate | 4 |
| Diamond Chestplate | 5 |
| Archangel Chestplate | 6 |
| Netherite Chestplate | 7 |
| Satanic Chestplate | 8 |
Rolling a crystal past the cap doesn't block it, but cuts the base success rate by 10% (only exactly at cap) - Crystal Dust can offset this, but never above the crystal's original base.

Conflict Reference
| Enchant | Conflicts With |
| Warrior's Mantle | Savage |
| Savage | Warrior's Mantle |
Warrior's Mantle and Savage both grant bonus damage for staying at high HP - one above 80%, the other only at exactly full - close enough that running both would be redundant, so only one can be active at a time. Conflicts are filtered out before the crystal rolls, so you'll never waste one on an incompatible outcome.
