Distracting Trims Mod FAQ
6 questions players actually ask, answered.
What problem does the Distracting Trims Mod solve?
It removes the need to wear golden armor for piglin protection, letting you keep the better protection of Netherite armor. Instead, you can wear gold-trimmed armor to stay safe from piglins.
How do you make gold-trimmed armor?
You use a smithing table to add a golden trim to a piece of armor. This applies gold designs onto the armor without changing its base material.
Do piglins attack you if you wear gold-trimmed armor?
No, piglins will not attack you if you are wearing gold-trimmed armor. The mod extends the distracting property of gold to trimmed armor.
Can you wear Netherite armor and still be safe from piglins?
Yes, if that Netherite armor has a golden trim applied to it. The gold trim provides the piglin-distracting effect while you keep Netherite's superior protection.
What vanilla mechanic does this mod build on?
It builds on the vanilla mechanic where piglins ignore players wearing a piece of golden armor. It also uses the armor trim feature added via smithing tables.
Does the mod change how armor trims look?
No, it keeps the normal appearance of golden trims, which add gold designs to your armor. The mod only adds the piglin-distracting effect to gold-trimmed armor.
