- Banner patterns are items that apply a completely new design to a Minecraft banner. Some are rarer than others.
- To apply them to a banner, place a banner, dye and a pattern in the loom, and craft the banner with a new design.
- There are 10 banner designs in Minecraft, including Flower Charge, Globe, Snout, Flow, Guster, Thing, Skull Charge, Creeper Charge, Field Masoned, and Bordure Indented.
If you love collecting rare items in Minecraft or simply love playing around with different banner designs, then you must already know all the cool banner patterns. Often used to express yourself, banner patterns add a detailed and completely different design to your banner. However, knowing all banner patterns in Minecraft and how to make them can be difficult. For those times and more, we have compiled this handy guide for you.
All Banner Designs in Minecraft
1. Flower Charge
![Crafting recipe for the Flower Charge banner pattern in Minecraft and that pattern applied onto a banner on the right](https://beebom.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Banner-patterns-Crafting-recipe-for-the-Flower-Charge-banner-patterns-in-Minecraft-and-that-pattern-applied-onto-a-banner-on-the-right.jpg?w=1250&quality=75)
The Flower Charge pattern can be obtained by combining a piece of paper with an oxeye daisy flower. This flower is fairly common and can be found generating on top of grass or dirt blocks in plains, sunflower plains, flower forests, and meadows Minecraft biomes.
This pattern creates a large flower design on a banner that also looks like the Sun.
2. Globe
The globe banner pattern is sold by a master-level cartographer, one of the many villager jobs, for 8 emeralds. Thankfully, it’s easy to learn how to find a village and the best villager trades to get started.
The guides above will also help you in locating this structure and obtaining the emeralds needed for leveling up a cartographer. To stay consistent with the blocky world of Minecraft, the Globe pattern adds a cube Earth design to your banner.
3. Field Masoned (Bedrock Edition Only)
The Field Masoned banner pattern is only available in the Bedrock edition and can be obtained by placing a piece of paper and a brick block in the crafting grid. As you would expect, it adds a brick design to your banner.
4. Bordure Indented (Bedrock Edition Only)
The Bordure Indented pattern can be crafted with a piece of paper and a single regular vine. This block commonly generates on trees in jungle and swamp biomes, as well as in lush caves. This Bedrock-exclusive banner pattern adds a zig-zag border to your banner.
5. Snout
The snout banner pattern is one of the possible loot items in bastion remnants in the Nether dimension. There is a 10% chance of you finding it, so approximately 1 in 10 chests should have it.
As the name suggests, this pattern adds a snout design of a piglin mob to the banner. So, while you cannot craft this banner, I still found the search to find it worth it.
6. Creeper Charge
The Creeper Charge banner design is extremely difficult to get. This design adds a creeper face to the banner. While not preferable by all, I like it. It requires you to complete multiple steps before getting it. First, you need a charged creeper. You can make it by striking a normal creeper with lightning.
For that, you need a trident with channeling enchantment. Once you create a charged creeper, it needs to blow up and kill a regular creeper, which will cause it to drop its head. We will combine this head with a piece of paper in a crafting grid to make the Creeper Charge pattern.
7. Skull Charge
The Skull Charge banner pattern is made using a wither skeleton skull and a piece of paper. The wither skeleton skull is a rare drop from the wither skeleton in the Nether fortresses, but the looting Minecraft enchantment makes it more likely to drop.
This pattern creates a skull and two crossed bones, which is a familiar pirate design all of the One Piece lovers will enjoy.
8. Thing
The Thing banner design is crafted by combining a piece of paper with the enchanted golden apple. Yes, you read that right, enchanted golden apple! This rare item is viewed as one of the biggest treasures in the blocky world of Minecraft, so it can be difficult to spend it on making a banner pattern.
But thanks to the ancient city and trial chambers, the enchanted golden apple is not that difficult to find. The Thing banner pattern adds the Mojang logo to the banner. So, if you want to add a touch of exclusivity to your Minecraft banner, get The Thing.
9. Guster
The Guster banner pattern is an item you can get only inside trial chambers. Your job is to defeat trial spawner challenges, get the trial key, unlock the vault, and get lucky enough to get this item. It has only a 3.6% chance of being ejected. The Guster banner pattern adds a silhouette of the Breeze mob, with a swirling tornado and angry eyebrows.
10. Flow
The Flow banner pattern is the most difficult to get banner design in Minecraft. Similarly to the Guster pattern, you can only get it inside trial chambers. First, you have to trigger ominous trials and defeat the ominous trial spawner challenge.
Then, you should get lucky to get the ominous trial key, which you can use on an ominous vault to get the Flow banner pattern. There is a 15% chance of this happening, which is not that great the things you need to do first.
How to Apply Banner Patterns in Minecraft
In order to utilize banner patterns, you’ll need a banner of any color, the loom block, and any color dye. Once you have all the materials, follow the steps below:
- Place the loom in your world and interact with it to open its UI.
- Now, place the banner with or without a design in the banner slot in the top left-hand corner.
- Add a dye in the slot next to it and place the banner pattern in the bottom slot on the left side of the loom’s interface.
- You’ll now see a preview of the design appear on the right. The design will be colored to match the dye you chose.
- Click on the banner on the right, craft it, and apply the pattern.
You now know how to get all the banner patterns and how they look on banners in Minecraft. The best thing is that the banner pattern won’t get used up in the process, so you can reuse it as many times as you want. The Banner patterns not only look cool but are also helpful in creating various other custom designs using the loom.
