Tide Armor Trim Smithing Template

The Tide Armor Trim Smithing Template is an item introduced in Minecraft version 1.20, used to customize the appearance of armor. It is not crafted but has a 20% chance of dropping after defeating an Elder Guardian in an Ocean Monument. The Tide Armor Trim is a purely decorative item, adding a unique pattern to armor, with the color determined by the material used. For example, using prismarine shards as a dye material would give the trim a color that matches prismarine shards. Although a Tide Armor Trim can only be used once, it can be duplicated by combining it with seven diamonds and prismarine (or other matching material) at a smithing table. The armor trim can be applied to any type of armor, including leather armor, but only provides a visual change without affecting the armor's stats. This template is primarily used for late-game decoration and personalization, allowing players to make their armor more distinctive and personal as they explore the vast world of Minecraft.
