Enchanted Shears
by EroZeq
Enchanted Shears adds two enchantments that make shears gather more wool, leaves and saplings from the blocks and mobs they work on.
What it does
Two new enchantments are added to shears, named Shearing and Pruning. Shearing increases the drop rate of wool from sheep, while Pruning raises the chance of apples from oak leaves and saplings from pruned leaves. Each drop can be switched on or off in the config, and effects can be applied to leaves the player places.
The mod is aimed at players who gather wool, apples and saplings in bulk, since the enhanced shears collect more per action. The two enchantments can be found at the Enchanting Table once the player has shears, and the behavior is customized through the config settings.
Installation is the same on Forge and NeoForge. Enchanted Shears runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Builds cover 1.20.1 – 26.1 across three release versions, and the mod is released under a custom license that is not open source.
Key features

Toggleable drops
Apple and sapling drops can each be enabled or disabled in the config, so server owners control gathering.
