Notes
Backpacks are a good way to carry more items around with you. They're carried around on your back, taking up the chest armor slot, meaning you can't wear armor at the same time. While there's items inside, you can't remove the backpack from the armor slot. They can store the same amount of items as a normal chest by default.
As an item, you can simply put it on the ground just like a chest. To equip it, and therefore carry around the items inside the backpack, break it while sneaking. Careful, because if you don't sneak, or already have something equipped (in your chest piece armor slot), the items will spill on the ground. To unequip, you have sneak and right click the ground (more specifically, the top side of a solid block) with an empty hand.
You can access the backpacks on other players. Simply stand closely behind them and right click. If the player moves away or turns around the GUI will close.
Normal Backpack
Template:Item Infobox
Normal backpacks pretty much work like leather armor, which means they take damage, can be enchanted, repaired and colored. They will drop their contents when they break or the player dies.
To craft Normal Backpacks, you need the following:
- 1 Gold Ingot
- 1 Wool
- 7 Leather
Ender Backpack
Template:Item Infobox
Ender Backpacks are pretty much portable ender chests, with the best of both worlds. It uses the same storage as the ender chest, so items that are stored inside are completely safe.
There is no crafting recipe for this backpack, but there are two hints.
- You will need an Ender Chest.
- When you see it you will probably know where to get it, you'll just have to figure out how.
