Maim
by baranhan123
Maim is a Forge and NeoForge enchantment for axes and swords that trades attack speed for a large boost to critical hit damage.
What it does
The Maim enchantment raises critical hit damage by 25% per level and lowers attack speed by 12.5% per level. Both values and the enchantment's cost can be set in the config. The mod calculates the exact critical damage and modified attack speed and shows them in the item tooltip. Only the client and server need it together, and it is published for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 under All rights reserved.

Attack speed penalty
Each level lowers attack speed by 12.5%, so the enchantment is a high-risk trade for heavier hits.
