Bandos chestplate

Beta For the Lucky version, see Lucky Bandos chestplate. A bandos chestplate is a part of the Bandos armour set, requiring 70 Defence to wear. It is dropped by General Graardor and his bodyguards in the God Wars Dungeon.

A bandos chestplate has the best Armour Rating and lifepoints boost of any non-degradeable melee body. Including degradeable equipment, it is surpassed by the torva platebody, vesta's chainbody, statius's platebody and Barrows bodies.\

Trivia

 * The inventory sprite for a bandos chestplate was missing both the shoulder spikes and the sleeve. It also resembled the male version of the chestplate more than the female version. The inventory sprite was changed during the 6th March 2012 graphical update.
 * Before the graphical update, the shoulder piece on the female version appeared to be slightly bigger and rounder than the one on the male version. This may be due to the fact that the model for female characters is smaller than that of male characters, making the shoulder piece appear larger. There was also an extra side piece on the female version.
 * Despite its appearance and it being a chestplate, this armour is not considered to be metallic when using any of Ava's devices.
 * Before the graphical update, the gauntlet-like pieces of the chestplate, near where gloves would be equipped, differed by the player's gender. The male version of the chestplate seemed to have 3 layers of hand plating, while the female version had 2.
 * The chestplate, along with royal d'hide chaps and an abyssal whip in safemode or software mode currently have an arm stretching glitch. It also works with all other body armour slot items tested.
 * The chestplate, along other Bandos armour, underwent yet another graphical update on the 3rd of July 2012.
