Understanding Armor Trims and Special Effects Display

What Armor Trims Show

Armor trims are cosmetic decorations added to armor pieces, and this mod displays them as part of your HUD information. When you equip trimmed armor, the bar includes a visual representation of the trim type you're wearing, helping you track your gear at a glance.

Thorns Effect Overlay

If your armor has the Thorns enchantment, the mod adds a dedicated visual overlay to your armor bar. This indicator activates when Thorns is dealing damage to attackers, giving you feedback that your defensive enchantment is working. You'll see this effect trigger during combat when enemies strike you.

Combining Visual Information

The mod layers all these displays together:

  • Durability status
  • Enchantment colors
  • Trim appearance
  • Thorns activation
  • Mending activity

All appear on one unified bar. This means you can monitor your complete armor status—cosmetics, protections, and condition—without switching screens. It's particularly useful for players who want to maintain specific armor aesthetics while tracking functional details.
