Bandos chestplate

For the Lucky version, see Lucky Bandos chestplate. The Bandos chestplate is a part of the Bandos armour set, requiring 65 Defence to wear. It is dropped by General Graardor and his bodyguards in the God Wars Dungeon.

The Bandos chestplate has the fourth highest ranged defence bonus of any armour in the game and the highest ranged defence bonus of any non-degradable chest armour in the game. Its ranged defence bonus is beaten by the Torva platebody, Vesta's chainbody, and Statius's platebody. It is tied with the Fighter torso for the highest strength bonus (+4) of any non-degradable chestplate or platebody in RuneScape. This piece of armour is widely used because of its Strength bonus.

Trivia

 * The inventory sprite for the 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.
 * At one point the Bandos Chestplate was slightly cheaper then the Bandos Tassets most likely due to the fact Fighter Torso gives the same amount of Strength bonus but significantly cheaper.
