Every Armour Trim and Where to Find It

Make your armour look like nobody else's.

A sentry armour trim template surrounded by a diamond chestplate, an amethyst shard, a gold ingot and a smithing table
Quick answer
  • Armour trims are cosmetic patterns. They don't change protection or stats.
  • You need a trim template, an armour piece and a material (like gold or amethyst) in a smithing table.
  • Copy a template with 7 diamonds plus a matching block.

Trims are how you make your armour look like nobody else's. Here's where every template is found and how to put them on.

How to apply a trim

  1. Open a smithing table.
  2. Put in the trim template, then the armour piece, then the material.
  3. Take the trimmed armour. The template is used up.

The material sets the trim's colour: iron, copper, gold, lapis, emerald, diamond, netherite, redstone, amethyst, quartz or resin.

Copying templates

Craft a template with 7 diamonds and its matching block to get 2 templates. For example, Sentry uses cobblestone and Wild uses mossy cobblestone. The recipe book shows the block for each one.

Copy before you use itApplying a trim uses up the template. Duplicate it first if you want a full matching set.
Silence is the flexAt a 1.2% chance in ancient cities, Silence is the hardest trim to get. Ancient cities are also full of wardens, so be careful in Hardcore.

Cheat sheet

  • Template + armour + material in a smithing table
