# Chestplates **Description:** The final tier of Amethyst Chestplate offers full knockback resistance.

You cannot wear any SWEM chestplates until they have been fully crafted up to Amethyst tier.

Amethyst Armor **cannot** be crafted if the [recipe config](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/star-worm-equestrian/page/recipe-config) is set to only creative or commands (disable crafting recipe).
