Banner Pattern
Snout Banner Pattern is a non-renewable loot-only item from Bastion Remnant chests that stamps a piglin snout emblem onto banners in a loom.
Description
A Snout Banner Pattern exists for one purpose: stamping the piglin snout emblem onto a banner. A player drops a blank banner, the pattern, and one dye of any color into a Loom to apply the snout emblem in that dye's color. One pattern survives each stamping, so a single pattern can decorate as many banners as the player can supply dyes for. The piglin snout pairs naturally with blackstone, gilded blackstone, and basalt for Nether-themed builds, and a player who misses a Bastion Remnant must travel to another to obtain a second copy.

Guide
How to get and use the Snout Banner Pattern in Minecraft
-
1
Find a Bastion Remnant
Travel to the Nether and locate a Bastion Remnant, the blackstone fortress that generates in Nether Wastes, Crimson Forests, Warped Forests, and Soul Sand Valleys.
-
2
Loot a Generic chest
Search the Generic chests inside the Bastion Remnant; each Generic chest carries a 10.1% chance of holding one Snout Banner Pattern.
-
3
Open a Loom
Place a Loom or right-click an existing Loom to open the 3-slot pattern interface that accepts a banner, a pattern, and a dye.
-
4
Apply the snout pattern
Drop a blank banner, the Snout Banner Pattern, and one dye into the Loom, then take the finished banner carrying the piglin snout emblem in the dye's color.
-
5
Reuse the pattern
The Snout Banner Pattern stays in the slot after each stamping, so one pattern can decorate every banner a player supplies dyes for.
The Snout Banner Pattern is never craftable and never renewable; a player who needs a second copy must loot another Bastion Remnant in the same world.
Frequently asked questions
How do I craft the Snout Banner Pattern in Minecraft?
The Snout Banner Pattern is never craftable in Minecraft Java or Bedrock Edition; no crafting recipe exists for the item in survival mode. The only survival source is the Generic chest loot of Bastion Remnant structures.
What is the drop rate of the Snout Banner Pattern?
Each Generic chest inside a Bastion Remnant carries a 10.1% chance of containing one Snout Banner Pattern, with a stack size of 1 and a quantity of 1. Players must loot multiple Bastion Remnants to raise the odds of a find.
Is the Snout Banner Pattern renewable?
The Snout Banner Pattern is non-renewable, because Bastion Remnants generate only once per world and cannot be regrown or rebuilt. Once every Bastion Remnant in a world is looted, no new patterns can enter that world without commands or creative mode.
What does the Snout Banner Pattern do?
