Minecraft Snapshot 24W19B Nerfs the Mace & Improves Performance
View quick summary
Minecraft snapshot 24W19B mostly focuses on making some technical changes and fixing old and relevant bugs. Those include performance boost, new cave sounds, added new vibrations for certain actions, fixed crash due to a villager dying and more. The mace was nerfed in the previous 24W18A snapshot and those changes include reduced attack damage and speed, smash attack calculation changes, additional density damage reduced and incompatibleness of all damage enchantments.
The Enchanting table is very important in Minecraft, but currently it has lots of flaws. Primarily, it's too random and enchanting could take a lot of time, levels, lapis and sanity. Furthermore, rerolling isn't quite obvious and there is no clear link between the table and bookshelves. Therefore, the enchanting table is not as good as enchanted books. The improvements I think enchanting table needs in Minecraft are a reroll button, display of all enchantments in a slot and a better approach for new players. Also, brand new feature like removing one enchantment would make the enchanting table truly valuable.
