A Piece of Greed
by R7X2
The Greed enchantment, added by A Piece of Greed on Forge and NeoForge, spends health, hunger and item durability in return for more power on weapons, tools and armor.
What it does
Greed is a new enchantment. Its effects scale with its level: a higher level increases damage, mining speed or protection, and consumes more hunger, durability or health to do so. It applies to pickaxes, shovels and hoes, to the helmet, chestplate, leggings and boots, and to ranged weapons such as the bow, crossbow and trident, where projectiles deal extra damage.
The enchantment is meant for players who accept a cost for an advantage. Armor with Greed grants extra protection and heals the wearer when attacked, paid for in hunger and durability. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, across 14 release versions 1.14.4 – 1.21.8, under the MIT License; the code is not open source.
Key features
Greed on melee tools
Pickaxes, shovels and hoes gain more damage and mining speed, paid for with hunger and item durability.
Greed on armor
Helmets, chestplates, leggings and boots grant extra protection and heal the wearer when attacked.
Greed on ranged weapons
Bows, crossbows and tridents deal extra projectile damage, with hunger and durability costs that rise with the level.
Scaling cost
Higher enchantment levels increase both the benefit and the resources consumed, so stronger levels call for more care.
