Applying Vanilla Trims to DarkBlades Armor

Using the Smithing Table

By default, the high-tier late-game gear from the DarkBlades mod cannot be trimmed. With the Dark Blades Armor Trims Data Pack active, you can decorate these pieces at any standard vanilla Smithing Table just like regular armor.

1. Place down and open a vanilla Smithing Table.

2. In the leftmost slot, place your desired armor trim smithing template.

3. In the center slot, place the DarkBlades armor piece you want to customize (helmet, chestplate, leggings, or boots).

4. In the rightmost slot, insert the material you want to use for the trim color.

5. Click the finished item in the output slot to retrieve your decorated DarkBlades gear.

Customizing All Four Slots

The data pack removes the trim restriction across every piece of DarkBlades armor. Repeat this process for your helmet, chestplate, leggings, and boots to achieve a unified look across your entire late-game set.
