#Minecraft Enchantments

One of the most unique tool enchantments in Minecraft is silk touch. It allows you to break and obtain blocks in item form that are otherwise not obtainable. The examples are grass blocks, stone blocks, glass blocks and others. You may get this enchantment through the enchanting table. Place the tool and lapis inside and view your offers. Moreover, you can get a silk touch enchanted book and apply it to a tool in an anvil. Finally, you may also find a tool already enchanted with silk touch in structure chests.

One of the best Minecraft enchantments is looting. It is applicable only to swords and it increases the drop amount and chance of items after you use the looting sword to kill a mob. You can also shoot a projectile and switch to a looting sword and this enchantment will trigger. You can get looting through the enchanting table. Place the sword and lapis in the table's UI and see if looting appears. You may also apply a looting enchanted book to the sword, which you get from librarians, fishing or when exploring in-game structures.

The Depth strider is an incredible quality of life Minecraft enchantment that lets you move faster underwater. It goes only on boots and has three levels, with each of them further increasing your swimming speed. You may get depth strider while enchanting boots inside the enchanting table or by combining them with depth strider enchanted book in the anvil. When you equip the enchanted boots, the effect will take place immediately and will not drain the boots' durability.

When you acquire enchantments, you can then combine them in Minecraft. You need an anvil and XP levels. It's possible to combine enchanted books, enchanted pieces of gear and a piece of gear and an enchanted book. When it comes to combining the same items, all the adequate enchantments will end up on the output item together. If you're combining two same enchantments with different levels, the lower one will be deleted but if they're the same level, they'll get combined to create a higher level.

Mending and infinity are both rather useful enchantments. Mending enchantment allows you to infinitely repair your gear, including a bow with XP. On the other side, infinity enchantment allows you to carry only one arrow and fire as many times as you want, essentially duplicating arrows. Whether you should have mending or infinity on your Minecraft bow depends on your personal preference. Infinity keeps your inventory clean and mending makes your bow last forever. Due to the possible villager trade rebalancing changes, more players may turn to mending, as good enchantments will be harder to get.

Best crossbow enchantments in Minecraft include: unbreaking, mending, quick charge, multishot, and piercing. Unbreaking grants a chance that the use of a crossbow won't use its durability. Mending allows you to restore crossbow's durability with XP. Quick charge lets you reload the crossbow faster. Multishot lets you fire three projectiles at once and consume only one. Piercing is the strongest enchantment, as it makes arrows pierce through entities, allowing you to damage up to five mobs with one arrow.

Piercing is an enchantment that allows arrows to pierce through entities in Minecraft. With it, you can damage up to five mobs in a straight line. Piercing also ignores players blocking with shields and is necessary to unlock the "Two Birds, One Arrow" and "Arbalistic" advancements. Its disadvantage is that you cannot have multishot and piercing on the same crossbow, and it does not affect fireworks. You can obtain piercing through the enchanting table or by using enchanted books you buy from villagers.
