Give Elytra with Unbreaking and Mending

Get an elytra that barely wears down and self-repairs

✅ Verified for Java 26.2 · Bedrock 26.32 — checked June 2026

Gives an elytra with Unbreaking III and Mending I so it rarely takes durability damage and repairs itself from XP orbs. Pair it with firework rockets for sustained flight. Note the elytra still needs occasional XP top-ups to stay repaired.
