Building with it

The vex trim comes from woodland mansions, the same trip that yields totems of undying. Applied at a smithing table it changes the look of a piece and nothing else, and copper or gold as the trim material makes the pattern stand out most.

In practice

The vex trim comes from woodland mansions, and the same trip that yields it usually yields totems of undying as well. The pattern is small and sharp, so on a large piece like a chestplate it reads as an accent rather than as a full redesign. Woodland mansions are the only source of the vex template, and the same trip yields totems from the evokers inside. Bring blocks to seal doorways: the danger in a mansion is being surrounded in a corridor rather than any single mob in it.
