Advanced Enchantments
With Advanced Enchantments installed, several vanilla enchantments gain higher levels and a few new effects appear, and the mod is open source under the MIT License.
What it does
Advanced Enchantments raises the maximum level of some vanilla enchantments, such as Channeling II, Silk Touch II, Flame II and Infinity II, and adds an enchantment of its own. Channeling II can call a lightning bolt onto a spot after a hit, and Flame II keeps an entity burning for longer after an arrow strikes it. Infinity II makes spectral and tipped arrows infinite, where vanilla Infinity does not.
The mod also changes how some gear behaves. Chestplates and elytras can be dampened, and tridents with Riptide can take on the power of a conduit.
Advanced Enchantments is a Forge mod for 1.12.2, 1.20, 1.20.1 and 1.20.2, with the latest file 0.14.0.0 for 1.12.2, released on 2023-12-10. The server must run it, and clients may run it too. It is released under the MIT License, and the source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
