When you die you dont get your armor back

How long was it before you went to get your items? Did you check if the items floated to the surface?

That happened to me I die in survival .I die in the ocean by a drowned. When I come back my stuffs in there but there are no armor .but I die using my iron armor enchanted by protection .please fix it .

It is not only with the armor, but with everything I can use equal to an armor, such as elytra or turtle helmet.

I have written a lot of info in MCPE-35526, but as it was closed as duplicate, i'll repeat it here:

• destroyed is everything you wear, for example elytra, mob heads, etc.

• item in offhand slot is also destroyed

• sometimes one piece of armor survives, but is vary damaged

I placed a bed near so it wasn't long. I was missing,my map too like the above comment said in the off hand. No armor or map.

Is this still happening in ver.1.6.0.8?

This was fixed in an earlier version.

happens for me, I drowned in an ocean monument, I was surrounding by blocks and then when I came back to get my stuff back, everything was there except for my armour, it was full netherite, fully enchanted with armour trims and it's just gone.
