    • Copper — a channeling trident can summon lightning even when it isn't storming.
    • Diamond — your tools mine as if their Efficiency enchantment were one level higher.
    • Echo shard — partial resistance to a warden's sonic boom.
    • Emerald — a small discount when trading with villagers.

  • Wearing a full set of netherite armor grants you fire resistance.
  • Wearing a full set of armor trimmed with the same pattern (regardless of material) grants its own bonus, as long as it's worn. Patterns marked ⚡ have an active ability triggered with the "Use Trim Ability" key (set it in Controls) — you can only be wearing one such pattern's full set at a time, so this one key works for whichever ability you currently have:
    • Bolt ⚡ — while sprinting, press the ability key to burst forward, then wait out a short cooldown before dashing again.
    • Coast — swim and mine underwater as though you have Aqua Affinity; if your helmet already has real Aqua Affinity, you also stop losing mining speed while off the ground.
    • Dune — melee attacks also weaken your target.
    • Eye — deal extra damage to endermen.
    • Flow ⚡ — while airborne, press the ability key to get a boost upward, like a burst of wind underfoot. Once per jump, with a short cooldown.
    • Host — a discount when trading with villagers, stacking with the emerald material bonus.
    • Raiser — deal extra damage to undead mobs.
    • Rib — immune to the wither effect.
    • Sentry — deal extra damage to pillagers, whether in melee or at range.
    • Shaper — reach a little farther, for both blocks and entities.
    • Silence — breaking a block while sneaking won't alert nearby sculk sensors.
    • Snout — hoglins and piglin brutes leave you alone.
    • Spire — immune to levitation.
    • Tide — immune to mining fatigue.
    • Vex — partial resistance to Evoker Fangs and Vex attacks.
    • Ward — extra partial resistance to a warden's sonic boom, stacking with the echo shard material bonus.
    • Wayfinder — any mount you're riding gets a small speed boost, stacking with potion effects.
    • Wild — immune to poison.
