How to get Smithing with Style

  1. Collect the 8 exclusive armor trim smithing templates, each from a different structure: Spire (End city chests), Snout (bastion remnant), Rib (nether fortress), Ward (ancient city), Silence (ancient city), Vex (woodland mansion), Tide (elder guardian drop) and Wayfinder (trail ruins suspicious gravel).
  2. At a smithing table, combine each template with an armor piece and a material to apply the trim.
  3. Repeat until all 8 templates have been applied at least once; the trim and the material do not matter, only the template.
  4. The challenge completes when the eighth template is applied and pays 150 XP.

Tips

Templates are consumed on use, so duplicate rare ones before applying: craft the template with 7 diamonds and its matching block to get 2 back. Silence is the rarest (around 1.2% per ancient city chest), so duplicate it first.
