EnchantmentTweaker
by omoflop
EnchantmentTweaker is a Fabric library that lets modders change core enchantment properties such as minimum and maximum level and the power requirement.
What it does
Library authors can tweak several core properties of enchantments through this mod. The adjustable values include the minimum and maximum level, the enchanting power requirement, which items an enchantment can or cannot be applied to, and the damage reduction amount granted by armor enchantments. The mod adds no gameplay content of its own; it exposes these settings for other mods to use.
Because the changes apply to the enchantment system itself, they carry over to enchantment tables and anvils with full support. Client and server both need the mod installed, since the enchantment data has to match on both sides. The code is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, which places it in the public domain, and the project publishes its source code, issue tracker and wiki. The only published file targets Fabric for 1.17.1, dated 2021-09-10.
