Armor trim guide

Spire Armor Trim

The Spire armor trim is an End City template with a clean end-game look. It pairs well with elytra, shulker boxes, and End-themed skins.

Find Spire smithing templates in End City chests. Spire is common within End City loot, but reaching End Cities requires defeating the dragon or exploring outer End islands.

Spire looks strong with amethyst, quartz, and diamond. These materials keep the trim bright enough to read on dark armor. Amethyst matches End colors, quartz adds bright contrast, and diamond makes the trim crisp.

Added in Minecraft 1.20 for Java and Bedrock gameplay.

Step 1

Find the Spire Template

End City chests are the main source for the Spire smithing template. The listed drop chance is 33.3%, 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 Purpur Block, and the original Spire 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 Spire

Amethyst matches End colors, quartz adds bright contrast, and diamond makes the trim crisp.

Step 4

Java /give Example

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

/give @p minecraft:netherite_chestplate[minecraft:trim={pattern:"minecraft:spire",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 Spire 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.
