EnchantWithMob
by baguchi
Hostile mobs in EnchantWithMob spawn pre-enchanted, with the strength of each enchantment set by the local difficulty, and an Enchanter mob joins village raids.
What it does
EnchantWithMob adds enchantments to hostile mobs so that they become stronger than their vanilla versions. A mob spawns already enchanted, and the enchantment chosen depends on the difficulty in the area. Enchanted mobs can drop a book that a player uses to enchant items, which gives a reason to fight them rather than avoid them. An Enchanter mob is added as well, drawn from the Minecraft Dungeons style of enchanted foes, and it appears in village raids.
The mod runs on Forge and NeoForge and needs Bagus Lib 9.4.0 or newer. Both the server and every player need it, because the spawns and mob behavior are handled on the server while the visuals are shown on the client. Most of the behavior can be changed through a config file, and datapacks can alter which enchantments mobs receive. Builds cover 1.18.2 – 26.3 with snapshots published, and the code is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, so the mod is open source.
Key features
Pre-enchanted hostile mobs
Hostile mobs spawn with enchantments chosen from their difficulty, so each area feels more dangerous than the last.
Enchanted mob drops
Defeated enchanted mobs drop an enchanting book that a player can apply to gear.
Enchanter mobs in raids
An Enchanter mob joins village raids, adding a stronger threat during the event.
Configurable behavior
A config file controls the enchantments and difficulty scaling, and modpack developers get many options to tune.
Datapack support
Datapacks can change mob enchantments, and the visuals can be customized with a datapack as well.

How it compares
Precision Enchanter is a Forge and NeoForge mod for 1.18.2 – 1.20.1, open source under the MIT License, and it targets the same enchanting theme in a narrower version range. Token Enchanter is also open source under the MIT License, supports Forge and NeoForge for 1.16.3 – 1.20.4, and covers an older span of versions. Dungeons Content Plus is not open source and carries All rights reserved, with Forge and NeoForge files for 1.19.2 – 1.21.11, so it adds content rather than changing mob enchantments.
