Better Enchanted
by liuzeen1234
Better Enchanted brings vanilla enchantments to food and potions, letting players apply them to items that the vanilla enchanting table rejects.
What it does
Enchantments normally apply only to tools, weapons and armor. This mod extends that system to edible items and throwable potions, using the same enchanting table and anvil flow that players already know. Food enchantments trigger when the item is eaten, and potion enchantments trigger when a thrown potion hits something. Enchanted books can be combined at an anvil, and the enchantment pipeline is wired in through Mixins.
The mod covers weapon, bow, crossbow and trident effects as well as the food and potion cases. Damage and effect formulas follow the vanilla enchantment mechanics for MC 1.20.4 as closely as possible, so enchanted food and potions balance against the original items. Food enchantments work with cake blocks, which use a dedicated enchantment storage system. Better Enchanted runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It requires Fabric API and is published for Fabric only, covering 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, under the MIT License, which makes it open source.
