Armor trim guide

Flow Armor Trim

The Flow armor trim is a Trial Chambers pattern with a smooth, moving shape. It feels lighter and more fluid than Bolt.

Find Flow smithing templates from Ominous Vault rewards in Trial Chambers. Flow is rare because it is tied to Trial Chambers progression and Ominous Vault rewards.

Flow is ideal for wind, water, and movement-themed sets. It looks especially good when paired with diamond, amethyst, or quartz. Diamond gives Flow a clean cyan streak, amethyst gives it a softer magical tone, and quartz keeps the pattern bright.

Added in Minecraft 1.21 for Java and Bedrock gameplay.

Step 1

Find the Flow Template

Trial Chambers Ominous Vaults are the main source for the Flow smithing template. The listed drop chance is 10%, so the practical search time depends on how quickly you can reach the structure and check its loot source.

Step 2

Duplicate the Template

Duplicate the template at a crafting table with 7 diamonds, 1 Breeze Rod, and the original Flow smithing template. The recipe returns 2 templates, which is the normal way to build a full armor set after finding one copy.

Step 3

Choose Materials for Flow

Diamond gives Flow a clean cyan streak, amethyst gives it a softer magical tone, and quartz keeps the pattern bright.

Step 4

Java /give Example

This command gives a netherite chestplate with Flow trim using Amethyst as the trim material.

/give @p minecraft:netherite_chestplate[minecraft:trim={pattern:"minecraft:flow",material:"minecraft:amethyst"}] 1

Bedrock Edition

On Bedrock, create the trim at a smithing table. Give yourself the armor piece first, then combine the armor, the Flow smithing template, and a Amethyst trim material in the smithing table UI.

/give @s netherite_chestplate

Bedrock commands cannot fully encode every trimmed armor combination the same way modern Java item components can, so the smithing table step is the reliable method.
