RajCraft – Top 10 Sword Enchantments In Minecraft

Hey youtube this is rosh and tend to be talking about the top 10 sword enchantments of minecraft so why don’t we get started so before we get started I should quickly say that I have videos on each enchantment they’re a lot more detailed if you want more information

And this list is meant to be more of my opinion on what I think is the best enchantments for the sword so what increases the function what makes it a better weapon and really just what’s fun so the number 10 enchantment for the sword is the piercer banishing probably the worst enchantment in

Minecraft basically when you die it means that your item will disappear so your sword will disappear it’s one of two curse enchantments and the way that you get it is through chest flute fishing or villager trading so just watch the swords that you get through these sources or the enchanted books

That you get through these sources so just make sure that you don’t have it I mean if you have it on your sword already you really can’t do anything about it but it’s definitely the worst enchantment you can put on your sword so the number 9 enchantment for the sword

Is the bane of arthropods the maximum level you can get is 5 and what this does is increases the amount of damage by 2.5 per level to arthropods so the maximum level is 5 so you can do an extra 12.5 on top of the melee damage

That you already do with the sword so this means you could pretty much do almost 20 damage just on arthropod mobs now when you hit them up it also gives them slowness for 4.5 seconds per level so the maximum is 3.5 seconds that will have slowness for now the mobs that are

Arthropods are spiders cave spiders bees silverfish and and your mites ok so I have a bane of arthropods enchanted sword here and I have the cave spider which is a little more health than a normal spider so let’s see how much damage I can do when I actually hit this

Guy so I pretty much instantly killed them so you definitely see it’s an effective against those mobs but it’s just there aren’t that many mobs of that type in the game so the number 8 enchantment for the sword is the knock back enchantment so this is similar to

The punch enchantment for the bow and what it means is when you actually hit the mob they’ll travel backwards so it moves them back 3 blocks per level so the maximum can be up to eight if you’re sprinting also okay so I have a knock-back to sword and

We’re gonna test this out so you can see that the mob traveled backwards a bit they didn’t travel much but you can definitely notice it so the other thing is this is really just it makes you travel backwards it doesn’t do more damage and it’s really not that

Interesting of an enchantment I mean the only way it’s useful is if you I can actually make them travel backwards and then maybe fall into lava or something like that so the number seven enchantment for the sword is the smite in channel and the spine enchantment applies the undead launched match from

Level is five and it does two point five damage per a level of the inch head so this means you can do an extra 12.5 damage to mobs that are Undead I should also mention that smite is incompatible with both of bane of arthropods and also sharpness now the

Mob set this applies to are things like skeletons zombies withers wither skeleton zombie pigmen skeleton horses strays husks ground and phantoms we can see there’s ten different mobs that actually applies to it applies to a lot more mobs in the vein of arthropods each

Haven’t it so I have a smite sword in my hand I’m going to see how much damage it does to this zombie so get one dent so it took two hits to kill him I believe the amount of damage is pretty close to actually instantly killing him

So this time it took two but next time it could only take one to kill that zombie so it’s definitely an effective enchantment it’s just it doesn’t apply to that many mobs so the sixth enchantment for the sword is the unbreaking hm the unbreak and chapman is very useful because it reduces the

Chance of durability being used when you actually use the sword so the maximum level is three and the formula for the durability is a hundred divided by in brackets level one so at unbreaking 3 it means you have four divided into a hundred so it’s twenty-five so it’s a 25% chance that

The sword will actually use its durability so usually when a sword uses durability it only uses one durability each time you use it but this means that 25% of the time it might use durability so this means your sword will actually have four times longer uses or four

Times the amount of uses than it normally does so it’s a very valuable enchantment because it increases the link that you can actually have your sword for so the number five enchantment for the sword is fire aspect so this is similar to the flame enchantment for the

Bow so it basically lights mobs on fire when you actually hit them with the sword so the maximum level is two and basically it adds 80 fire ticks or four seconds per each level so this means that a mob could be on fire for either four seconds or eight seconds so it’ll

Drop cooked meat instead of raw meat so for example with chicken if you hit it it’ll drop cooked chicken instead of just raw chicken so at level one it does three damage and at level two it can do seven damage and this is over the length

Of while it’s burning so at level one it does three damage in at level two it does seven damage so the amount of damage is basically just how long it’s on fire for one thing about this is also that you won’t get XP if there was no

Non fire damage within five seconds of a dying so as you can see it could be up to eight seconds that the mob is on fire if it goes all the way up to eight seconds and you haven’t hit the mob then you won’t get any XP out of them

Actually dying from the fire aspect and the last thing is that nether mobs are immune to it because they’re obviously aiming to fire damage so I have a fire a special sword here and I’m just gonna test it out on this zombie so I’m just

Gonna hit him and you can see he’s on fire and it’s taking him quite a while he’s taking a lot of damage from the fire and see it’s about every damaged so it’s definitely useful enchantment and anything that increases the amount of damage you do with the

Sword is useful so number four is the sharpness and tannin and the sharpness enchantment the maximum level is five and this is incompatible with the bane of arthropods and also the smite enchantments yes is using one two three the default damage that it does is one

And then it’s point five per level so the maximum it does is three point five damage so unlike the other two enchantments which are specific to certain types of mobs this applies to all mob so it’s a lot more broader and the amount of damage you can do the moms

So with a diamond sword you’ll actually have to use an anvil to put sharpness 5 on to it so you basically have to get a book that has sharpness 5 and sacrifice it into the sword in order to get a sword of sharpness 5 so I have a sword

Of the sharpness 5 on it and we’re gonna test it out against a zombie so you can see he took one hit and he took two hits and he took three hits so you can see that it doesn’t do that much damage but it does a decent enough damage that

At least it’s useful for the sword so number three enchantment for the sword is the sweeping edge enchanted so what the sweeping engine chairman allows you to do is basically a sweeping attack so this is a bit different it basically allows you to do more damage around the

Mobs that you’re attacking so let’s say you get attacked by two three mobs now usually when you have a sword and you attack the mob in the middle it doesn’t do that much damage to the mobs next to it but this enchantment allows you to do more damage to

Around the one inter tacky so if you get swarmed by a large amount of mobs basically can do more damage to all the logs instead of just one so the maximum of those three it increases the sweep attack and to give you an idea how much

Damage you do to the mobs that you aren’t attacking basically at level one it’s 50% of damage at level two it’s 67% and level three it’s at 75% so this definitely makes it a lot more useful to have this on a sword okay so I loaded up

This place with zombies and I have a sword that has a sweeping edge on it so we’re gonna see how much damage I can do to the mobs so if I attack this guy you can see that I’m doing damage to the ones around me and you can see that it’s

Definitely being effective so a lot of the marks that I’m hitting yeah you can see that three are getting attacked when I’m basically just swiping out one so the number two enchantment for the stored is the men in camp so the maximum level Vista Chairman is level one it could be obtained through

Chest flute fishing raids and also villager trading and how it works is when you get one XP it repairs to durability on the sword so an item can be in hand the off hand or an armored slot if you have multiple items with mending on it one is chosen at random

And if that item has full durability already the XP will be applied to the player so this is definitely useful when it comes to the sword so if you’re killing mobs it should restore the durability of the sword while you’re using it and the number one enchantment

For the sword is the looting in Chanin so the reason I like polluting enchantment as number one for the sword is because it increases the amount of drops you get so if you think about something like the fortunate gem for the pickaxe it basically allows you to get

More diamonds when you’re mining with the looting enchantment allows you to get more drops when you’re killing mobs so the maximum level is three it increases the amount of drops you get from mobs so a lot of this is math but basically if you get common drops it

Can increase the amount of common drops by one pearl level so this means you can that get an extra three common drops so with uncommon drops the first attempt fails there’s a second attempt and if you look at this the maximum level is three so it would be 75% chance that you

Could get an uncommon drop on the second attempt so with rare drops there’s an increase of one percentage point per a level to get an extra 3% if you have a Liddy three-inch and also with equipment drops it’s the same so you get an increase of

One percentage point per level so if you look at this this pretty much means that when you kill mobs you can get more drops and you can get more items especially more useful items so it’s definitely the best enchantment for the sword in my craft so that was the top 10
