Greed
by Natsu91
Greed rebalances enchanting, brewing, cauldrons and villager trades in Minecraft Java Edition, adding curses and enchantments on Forge and NeoForge.
What it does
Greed changes how the enchanting table works by giving it tiers that depend on the block below it, and bookshelves always count toward the table's tier. The card adds seven curses and four enchantments, and the enchanting table now draws on a larger pool of choices. An option uncaps the table's maximum level so items can be enchanted up to 64 levels at once, while maxed enchantments cost up to 30 levels. Config options can make enchanting consume an amount of experience shown on the table, and the cost of each enchantment can be set through the config file.
Brewing and cauldrons get their own changes. Cauldrons can hold potions instead of water, and players cannot fill a water bottle from a water source, so a cauldron is required. A cauldron filled with potions applies its effects to a single bottle and combines them into one. Greed integrates with Farmer's Delight, where its rebalance makes that mod's foods a more viable choice.
