About
A Broken Elytra is the result of an Elytra's durability reaching zero after extended gliding or fall damage. It retains its item form but loses all function, you cannot equip it or fly with it in this state.
Repair a Broken Elytra using an anvil and Phantom Membrane, or combine two Broken Elytras on an anvil to restore one fully functional Elytra. This is the primary way players recover flight capability without crafting a new Elytra from scratch. The item does not stack, so each broken wing takes a separate inventory slot.
