The Definitive List of All Minecraft Enchantments

Minecraft enchantments there’s a lot of them 38 actually well two are curses but whatever magic is magic in this video i’m going to show you what tools they can be put on and how they work giving you a definitive list of all the minecraft enchantments as of update 1.17

And hey if you came here to find a specific enchantment we’re going in alphabetical order so i hope you remember your abcs a is for aqua affinity aqua affinity is a staple in pretty much any survival world it can be put on any of the seven types of helmets

And of course books and its max enchantment level is one it allows you to break blocks faster while underwater for example it takes four seconds to break a piece of dirt with your fist underwater but with aqua affinity it now takes under half a second bane of arthropods bane of arthropods in my

Opinion is pretty much the worst enchantment in the game sorry mojang it had to be said it’s only used on swords and axes and its max level is five it’s incompatible with both sharpness and smite but it can be useful if you have a dedicated sword for one specialty farm

Because bane of arthropods does extra damage against all arthropods in minecraft what are arthropods you may ask spiders silverfish and endermites blast protection heck i never use this one but some people love it blast protection can be put on any piece of armor in the game and its max

Enchantment level is four blast protection is used to reduce damage from explosions which makes it very useful when fighting creepers or dealing with tnt but it also protects from the effects of gas fireballs the initial wither explosion and even end crystals exploding however this is incompatible with all other forms of protection

Channeling channeling is used exclusively on tridents and its max enchantment level is one it is incompatible with riptide but it’s definitely the most impressive looking enchantment on the list when standing in the rain channeling allows the player to strike a mob with lightning using their trident cursive binding cursive binding

Is used on any piece of armor in minecraft in addition to several other things that includes the dragon head carved pumpkins or even a wither skull its max level is one in cursive binding as you can probably guess does not allow a player to remove the item once they

Have equipped it and let me tell you right now it is stellar when you trick a friend into putting a cursive binding pumpkin on their head curse of vanishing curse of vanishing coming from a guy who dies a lot sucks it can be put onto any

Tool or piece of armor and its max level is one if an item has curse of vanishing this means that when a player dies that item will not drop on death and they will be deleted forever depth strider depth strider is one of my personal favorite enchantments it’s max levels 3

And here’s all the stuff you can put it on yep just boots when wearing a pair of depth strider boots the player will move quicker in water even going upstream this is extremely useful when building farms or if you have an ocean base however depth strider is incompatible

With frost walker but let’s be honest who cares about frostwalker efficiency you can add efficiency to any pickaxe shovel axe or hoe in minecraft efficiency makes it take less time when mining blocks its max enchantment level is 5 which just allows you to mine at ridiculous speeds for example mining a

Block of obsidian with an unenchanted diamond pick will usually take around 10 seconds but with efficiency 5 that time is reduced to just 2 seconds feather falling again feather falling is an enchantment exclusively allowed on boots when wearing a pair of feather falling boots the player will take much less

Fall damage again good for me because i die but something i didn’t know before even making this video it also reduces teleportation damage from ender pearls its max enchantment level is four fire aspect fire aspect has a max level of two and it is a sword exclusive enchantment fire aspect causes the mobs

You attack to catch on fire and will even drop cooked food from animals when used on the flip side fire protection fire protection is amazing especially if you spend a lot of time in the nether it reduces damage from fire and lava and its max level is four it’s incompatible

With all other types of protection but it can be used on any piece of armor in the game flame flame is our third and final fighter related enchant which is exclusive to bows flame does the same as fire aspect and sets your target on fire when you shoot them it will also drop

Cooked food from animals but like fire aspect it will be put out in rain or in water its max level is one fortune fortune is used on all tools axes hose pickaxes shovels it increases the drop rate from blocks that does however mean that it is incompatible with silk touch

Fortune’s max level is three and it can greatly increase your productivity while mining let’s look at a block of diamond ore when you mine a block of diamond ore without fortune you’ll get one diamond every time but with fortune 3 you can get up to four diamonds from every

Single block frostwalker for such a cool name i’m honestly not a fan i almost never use this mainly because it’s incompatible with depth strider which i love it’s only used on boots it’s max enchantment level is 2 and it allows you to walk on water by turning all of the

Water sources under your feet to temporary ice impaling impaling’s another one that’s exclusive to tridents and it’s essentially the sharpness of the water world its max level is 5 and this enchantment does extra damage to sea creatures that includes squids guardians and turtles although if you

Ever kill a dolphin i might have to strike you with lightning infinity infinity is one of my personal favorites and it’s also exclusive to bose it’s max enchantment level is just one but that’s all you need when you use a bow with infinity it will not take arrows from

Your inventory and you can shoot infinitely until your bow breaks the only downside is that it’s incompatible with mending which means you’ll need to craft up a new bow every once in a while also infinity does not affect any specialty arrows such as tipped or spectral arrows knockback knockback is

Used on any of the six kinds of swords in the game and its max level is two when it’s put on a sword it causes mob’s hit to be launched backward this enchantment is really useful when fighting creepers but of course it will not affect mobs like shulkers that don’t

Move which are attached to one block looting looting is a super useful enchantment especially in player powered farms it’s only used on swords and its max level is three looting causes mobs that are killed to drop extra loot similar to how fortune works on blocks loyalty loyalty is another trident

Exclusive enchantment and its max level is three when put on a trident it allows the trident to return to the player after being thrown and this means that it is incompatible with the riptide enchantment this allows the player to attack mobs from a range similar to how

A bow or a crossbow works luck of the sea luck of the sea is a great enchantment for all you fishermen out there it’s exclusive to fishing rods and its max level is three when put onto a fishing rod it allows the player to get better loot from fishing especially

Treasure loot which includes things like name tags enchanted books and nautilus shells though in recent updates it’s important to remember that unless you have two blocks of air or water in each direction you won’t be able to get any treasure loot that means that this little thing in your base yeah that’s

Not gonna work lure lure is another fishing rod exclusive enchantment and again its max level is three when on a fishing rod it causes you to get bites more often and that way you can get fish faster and get more loot mending i think it’s pretty much a consensus mending is

One of the best or the best enchantment in the game mending only has one level but it can be put on absolutely any tool or piece of armor when holding or wearing an item with the mending enchantment it uses the experience gained by the player to repair the

Item’s durability meaning no more of this and a lot more of this multi-shot multi-shot is a crossbow-only enchantment this allows you to shoot multiple arrows at once while only one arrow will be used from your stash its max level is one but it’s incompatible with piercing which i actually like a

Lot better which brings us to piercing piercing is another crossbow enchantment as i said it’s incompatible with multi shot and its max level is 4. piercing allows you to shoot through multiple mobs at once line them up aim fire and you can kill several baddies at once

Power power is used only on bows and it works like sharpness on swords but adds extra damage to your shots its max level is five with power five you can one shot mobs like pigs sheep and even spiders projectile protection projectile protection is like the rest incompatible

With every other kind of protection but it can be put on any piece of armor it’s used to reduce damage from things like tridents crossbows or just regular bows it’s max level just like all other forms of protection is for protection i don’t know what you want me to say it’s just

Basic protection incompatible with every other protection type max level of four and it’s still the best of them i said it sue me put it on any and all armor and enjoy your immortality punch punch is the equivalent of knockback but for bows only its max level is two and just

Like knock back on swords it sends the mobs you hit flying when you shoot them quick charge quick charge is an interesting enchantment loading a crossbow takes over a second to load compared to a bow which takes about half a second to load so mojang introduced the quick charge enchantment its max

Level is three and it reduces the time it takes to load your crossbow and with quick charge level three you can load a crossbow even faster than a normal bow respiration respiration is only used on helmets similar to aqua affinity its max level is 3 and it allows the player to

Swim underwater longer without those precious little air bubbles popping riptide riptide is another trident exclusive enchantment but unfortunately it is incompatible with both channeling and loyalty because riptide allows you to be pulled along and fly with your trident as long as you’re standing in rain or water it only has one level

Enchantment if you want my advice i would try and keep two tridents one with each path of enchantments that way you can both fight and fly around sharpness sharpness is only used on swords and axes but it causes your attacks to do more damage to all mobs

Its max level is five and it’s very powerful you’re going to want this on pretty much any sword you have unfortunately it is incompatible with bane of arthropods and also smite silk touch silk touch can be put on any tool including shears it’s used to grab a

Block itself for example when you mine stone you get stone itself and not cobblestone like you normally would with an unenchanted pick it even allows you to carry around an ender chest so you have all of your items at all times it only has one level and that’s incompatible with fortune obviously

Smite smite is another damage enchantment only used on swords and axes and it has a max level of 5. it does extra damage to all undead mobs including zombies skeletons husks strays wither skeletons and even skeleton horses soul speed soul speed is another boots only enchantment with a max level

Of 3. with this on your boots you get to zoom along faster when running over soul sand or soul soil for example when running over 10 blocks of soul sand it takes 4 seconds but with soul speed 3 it takes less than half of that sweeping edge sweeping edge is a sword only

Enchantment with a max level of 3. this enchantment gives your sword bonus damage on its sweep attack you know that little thing in the middle of your screen yeah the sword looking thing yeah that’s it this enchantment is great for using in player powered farms and when

Combined with looting you’ll be set on rotten flesh for life thorns its max level is 3 and it’s put on all types of armor when wearing thorn’s armor any mob that attacks you will take damage thorns is useful especially when you’re dealing with a lot of mobs at once unbreaking in

My mind this one’s only second to mending and it can be put on absolutely any tool or piece of armor even the carrot on a stick unbreaking is pretty simple it reduces the amount of durability that your tools lose when you use them by giving them a chance to not

Take any durability that’s it 38 enchantments each one is useful except for bane of arthropods but let me know of course which one is your favorite in the comments and let me know if i missed anything because you people are ruthless now go my friends and conquer your

Blocky world drop me a sub if you like and i’ll catch you guys in the next video
