Diamonds are a rare mineral obtained by mining Diamond ore or as chest loot in structures. They are primarily used for crafting high-tier tools, weapons, armor, and enchantment-related items.
Diamonds are required to craft Diamond swords, pickaxes, axes, shovels, and hoes, which are among the most durable and effective tools in Minecraft. They are also essential for making Diamond armor, enchanting tables, and jukeboxes. In addition, netherite gear must be upgraded from Diamond tools and armor using a smithing table.
Since diamonds are rare and valuable, they are commonly sought after for late-game survival, enchanting, and high-tier crafting. They can also be traded with toolsmith and weaponsmith villagers at master level in exchange for emeralds.

Chance is the probability the offer appears at that level. Stock is how many trades before the villager must restock.
