I can confirm this issue

It seems like using other armor trims will unlock the achievement, but not the 8 mentioned in the achievement description.

The issue resolved for me after applying Host and Raiser.

Could you please mention which platform(s) this is happening on?

This bug occured for me on Windows 10 and Pocket Edition (Android 7.0).

It seem that this achievement will not completed when you finish what you did, as the achievement stucks at 6/8 for a short time and will be completed in later hours or days.

The achievement description is wrong. Ward and Vex don't move the tracker. It's Eye and Raiser you need. My achievement was stuck at 6/8 until I used these two.

I can confirm on Android the fix for it is Eye and Raiser instead of Snout and Ward.

I also ran into this problem. The completion of my achievement is stuck at 6/8, and my friend's is at 5/8. I tried with different armor elements, but it didn't lead to anything.

The platform on which this happened is minecraft for windows.

For me platform is Windows Bedrock edition (Windows 11).

Same as others, I specifically did the 8 listed in the achievement first to complete this and am stuck at 6/8 (made full sets armor for each trim listed). Will be trying Raiser and Eye as it seems many have reported as the "fix"

If this is true then either the description needs updating or the logic behind it to qualify on the correct trims.

Confirmed by doing Eye and Raiser the final 2 of 8 were completed.

I've only used 8 trims total in my world (2 sets of mixed trim armor) and triggered the achievement. [Nintendo Switch]

The 8 I used were: Spire, Tide, Eye, Rib, Raiser, Silence, Snout, and Wayfinder.

A simple fix for this bug would be to update the description.

I'm still stuck with 2 of 8 smithing templates applied on 1.20.12 Windows 10 single player. Part of the problem is the achievement doesn't state which 2 it has recognized, so I keep wasting diamonds reapplying the 5 templates I have found across multiple worlds in an attempt to get it to move again. In the beginning it wasn't applying any progress at all (0 of 8) even though 3 templates were used. Then one day on one world it jumped to 2 of 8 and hasn't moved since.

My progress bar updated with all the trims listed in the achievement description except for Spire. At this point, I have applied all of the available trims at least once, but my progress bar is stuck at 88%. After scanning through sites like Reddit, it seems that no one can agree what trims actually count towards the achievement.

phoenixrain1223 2023-12-22T22:07:03Z

The achievement is also not working for me. I am playing on Xbox (bedrock edition) and I have tried applying every single template more than once. Still says I'm at 7/8 and 87% complete even though I've done them all :/

UnknownLolz 2024-04-21T03:42:52Z

Anyone on switch I'm stuck on 7/8 even though I used and put on all trims and it didn't pop. Update: i just started crafting the trims with diamond armor and the achievement popped for me.

I found a workaround for this bug! I have been stuck at 88% for a while and was scrolling YouTube for possible solutions. I found this video Smithing With Style (NEW METHOD!) - Ultimate Achievement Guide and saw a comment from user BlockyHead21. He suggested using the same material armor (ie, trimming a golden chestplate every time). I tried this by applying the wild, coast, dune, and vex trims to a pair of iron boots, and the achievement popped! So try using each trim on an identical piece of armor every time. Or, if you get all the trims in the same world, just run the same piece of armor through the smithing table for each trim. If any of you try this, let me know if works for you! Again, a big shoutout to YouTuber blocky for his video and to BlockyHead21 for his comment!
