💡 Design Philosophy

Each trim uses materials that reflect its original location:

• Ocean trims use Prismarine variants
• Nether trims use Blackstone and Nether Brick
• End trims use Purpur and End Stone
• Ancient City trims use Sculk and Deepslate
• Structure trims use their respective building materials

Core materials (Diamond, Gold, Emerald, etc.) scale with the rarity and danger of the original location.

📝 Notes

• Templates can still be found naturally in structures
• All recipes are shaped (must match the exact pattern)
• Works in both singleplayer and multiplayer
• No mods required - pure vanilla data pack

🤝 Perfect For

• Survival servers
• Modpacks
• Challenge worlds
• Anyone who loves armor customization
• Players tired of exploring the same structures
