Enchantment Effects
With Enchantment Effects installed, bows, tridents and maces gain sounds and particle effects when their enchantments trigger, so weapons read as stronger in play.
What it does
The client-side mod attaches sound and particle effects to enchantments on bows, tridents and maces, so a triggered enchantment is visible and audible. The effects scale with the enchantment level, so a higher level looks and sounds more intense. Special synergies between enchantments, such as Smite combined with Fire Aspect for a fiery smite, also get their own effects.
Only the client needs the mod, because it changes presentation and not game rules, so servers run without it and players join without installing it. Fabric API is required. Files are published for Fabric only, for game versions 1.21.11 – 26.3, and the code is open source under the MIT License. Source code and an issue tracker are public.

Particle effects
Particles appear alongside enchantment triggers, giving weapon use a visible result.
Level-scaled effects

What the author says
Enchantment Effects is a client-side mod that makes enchantments feel more powerful by adding sounds and particle effects that scale with enchantment level. After grinding out for max enchantments I realized my weapons and armor didn't feel any more powerful, so this mod fixes that!
