Vanilla Plus Enchantments
by dousiyo
Vanilla Plus Enchantments adds a large set of new enchantments and curses, covering melee and ranged gear, tools, protection items and several utility tools.
What it does
Each enchantment is meant to give an item a specific role. Some add extra damage after a hit, some extend melee reach, and others steer arrows toward nearby targets. Curse enchantments carry drawbacks that the player accepts in exchange for their effects. The mod keeps the familiar Minecraft style, so enchanted items read as an extension of vanilla progression rather than a replacement for it.
The mod covers combat, exploration, mobility and utility, with options for ranged and spear playstyles. Its enchantments are described in the game's own readable format, and the design favors situational power over constant overload. It runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it. Files are published for Fabric and NeoForge, for game versions 26.1 – 26.1.2, under the MIT License, and the code is not open source.
Key features
Enchantments for many item types
New enchantments can be placed on a wide spread of gear, from swords and spears to brushes, fishing rods and elytra.
Curse enchantments
Curses add drawbacks to an item, so a player trades a penalty for a specific advantage on that piece of gear.
Combat options
Follow-Up, Breach, Laceration, Impact Shot and Breakline strengthen strikes, knockback and openings during charges.
Mobility and utility
Long Reach, Extended Reach, Vein Breaker and Gathering change melee reach, block interaction range, mining and drops.

Second Wind and Recovery improve what a player gets back after heavy damage and from arrows.
