Armour Trims & Sets

Trims are rare drag-on upgrades for armour — one trim per piece, each with its own look and its own set of bonuses. Drop a trim onto a piece of gear and it gains whatever that trim grants: PvP damage, damage reduction, mining and loot perks — all spelled out on the trim item before you apply it.

Changed your mind? A Trim Remover (itself a rare drop) takes a trim off a piece and hands it back to you. You can also apply a new trim straight over an old one after a quick chat confirm — but the trim you replace is gone for good.

Where trims drop

Trims you can find in the world:

The Skyfall trim is among the rarest finds on the server — a Skywars-exclusive jackpot pull from Champion Boxes, left for the worthy to uncover. See Skywars for how to earn the chance.

Atlas is the odd one out. It's still a live set with live bonuses and its own /trims entry, but no Map III loot table currently rolls it — the only Atlas trims in circulation are ones already owned.

Notable trim bonuses

A few trims carry standout effects worth knowing before you chase them:

• Spectral — Soul Siphon. Now a dedicated PvE set — its damage reduction applies to PvE only. Its full-set ability Soul Siphon (which replaces the old Phantom Veil) feeds on the hunt itself: each shade or wraith kill heals you and stacks a short-lived PvE damage buff, refreshed with every kill.
• Nyx's Shroud. The PvP set, replacing the retired Wayfarer — sealed out of a Wound of Erebus, with a full-set ability of its own, Rift Wound. See Nyx's Shroud.
• Olympian. The KOTH jackpot trim — now 72% of the jackpot slot. Its full-set ability Zeus's Wrath calls down lightning on nearby shades, wraiths and pit guards.
• Raider. Built for cell raiding — a full Raider set takes 25% less damage from cell guards.
• Broodborn. The momentum mining set, known as Surgeborn before Map III — now dropped by Echidna alongside its pickaxe counterpart. See Broodborn.

The Skipstone set

Skipstone is the introductory 4-piece armour trim set, and it's now squarely a wand set. Wear all four pieces and the full-set bonus grants:

• 12% more wand damage (PvE)
• 8% reduced PvE damage taken

The set does nothing in PvP, and the old +6 Max HP is gone. Completing all four pieces unlocks two extras: the Skipstone wand trim's beam ricochet, so your wand beam bounces between targets, and the set's own full-set ability Skipping Stone, which lets a wand beam that kills skip onward to the next enemy. Partial sets give partial value — the headline numbers are for the full four.

Trims change how a piece performs, not how it looks beyond the trim's own pattern — for purely visual flair, see Cosmetics. And remember that armour bonuses stack with whatever you carry in your offhand, so plan the two together.

Trim set abilities no longer post a chat line every time they fire — a proc announces itself with a bigger particle burst and a louder sound instead.

The /trims catalog

Run /trims to browse every trim in the game, what it does, and where it comes from. The catalog is organised by item type — separate tabs for Armour, Pickaxe, Weapon, Wand and Bow — so you can jump straight to the line you care about. Pickaxe, weapon, wand and bow trims live on their own pages: see Weapon, Wand & Bow Trims.

Stat lines in /trims now follow the server-wide wording rule: increased bonuses sum with your other increased sources, more bonuses multiply on top — matching the wording on the trim items themselves.

When a player is the first to apply a given trim, the server-wide announcement points everyone to /trims so they can see what just got claimed.
