Edit: After looking at the comments, yeah I’d probably move riptide up, just under sweeping edge. I still don’t think it’s great but I underrated it. Fire protection still sucks though everyone saying it’s good are insane. I wonder which enchantment fan I’ll upset with this video
@@zakroipastbaranivic9737just get fire resistance, your not gonna die to lava with full prot 4 why spend time getting fire prot when you could negate all fire damage with an easy to make potion
why not just place blocks in front of you on a one block bridge? sucks if there are blocks below and close. but if theyre close then you can just jump to another block
I rarely see anyone mention the fact that piercing hits players through shields. I think that makes it a worth enough enchantment in a PvP scenario, and while it might not be a game changing enchant, I feel like it deserves more credit for it.
Exactly. The crossbow in general is a pretty weird and niche weapon, which I love. If you're in the right situation, at the right time and are prepared... it's the most insanely broken, absolutely vile thing in the game... anywhere outside, it's just barely ok.
22:45 Minor correction: Protection does, in fact, resist magic and falling. The only damage types that can penetrate Protection are starvation, the Warden's laser, void damage, and /kill.
A cool feature of riptide is that if it is used in your offhand and you have a weapon in your main hand, any enchantments on the main hand weapon will apply to the spin on impact. I’d honestly recommend having two tridents for this exact reason.
You forgot to mention one thing about fire aspect/flame. If the fire kills the mob, and u have looting on ur sword, the mob wont give u more drops. It will basically ignore looting. Also sweeping edge makes a huge difference in endermen farms
So I'm back after testing and can confirm that unless you deliberately let the mob die by fire and not player interaction looting will have effect. I just got 4 cooked mutton from a single sheep, on single player java like I've been playing for the last 10 years lol It also works with a flame bow in my off-hand and a looting 3 sword in my main hand. You might want to re-check your sources. @@buzatusebastian2735
Swift Sneak's added speed on bridging is an absolute delight. Imagine bridging, building high builds or in high places while retaining the safety of shifting with the speed of walking.
I didn't like Swift Sneak that much until I played a multiplayer PVP server and realized I can hide my username and do normal tasks with no worries of anyone finding and trying to kill me.
Blast protection is super underrated. I wouldnt reccomend having it on every piece or anything, but having it on just one can help a lot especially in hardcore. 3 pieces of protection armour or 2 if youre wearing elytra already stops almost anything from killing you with explosions being the last real thing that can, so it stops those in particular
The math checks out on this. 4 prot 4 armor pieces: 64% reduction from all relevant damage types that's 16% per armor piece, and 4% per individual level of protection The specialized protections (fire/proj/blast) are all double this, so 32% from full blast protection 4. If you wear 3 protection pieces and one blast protection piece, you have 48% for general damage, and 80% (which happens to be the cap for protection % from armor) for blast damage. This is actually super useful if your maxed out armor is only going to let you die to a creeper, or if you're one of those guys that does end crystal pvp. EDIT: yes the 80% cap means that it's a waste to wear more than 1 non-protection piece of armor. 32% (2 protection pieces) + 64% (2 blast protection pieces) = 96% this is above the cap, functioning as 80%
@@Randomboi863 end crystals, respawn anchors, beds, withers exploding, charged creeper are just a few that spring to mind straight away. I see your point more on singleplayer but multiplayer it is very useful
@@lejioh641 I go on "mining adventures" as me and my friend call it while my farms are running (the farms are in spawn chunk) Edit: I like to use some ore blocks for decorations, and raw iron blocks can make for a cool pathway
Advocating for swift sneak !! Sneaking hides your gamertag in most pvp gamemodes, making sneak attacks, flanking attacks, escaping, and avoiding danger altogether MUCH easier. In any prolonged engagement especially involving complex and multileveled terrain/architecture, a treeline, and/or especially underground you get a very substantial leg up and if you and your opponent are both trying to sneak to reposition or racing to grab an important item you will be able to outmaneuver them every time. Also its good for mining ravine walls and making a bridge over ledges especially in places like the nether or end. Swift sneak is underrated imo
I think Projectile Protection should be even lower. For just 1 Iron Ingot you can make a shield which just Blocks 100% of the damage of Arrows (or Creeper Explosions btw). The only thing I can give it is that it doesn't have a potion effect and when you fight 3 or more Skeletons at the same time, you might not block all the arrows.
@@Lazy_.LavenderWhy the fuck would you willingly step into lava without a *fire resistance* potion which literally makes you *immune* to the effect and by the time you get to the nether you’ll probably already have shields and armor with protection 4 and mending which are infinitely better and at least projectile protection helps with dealing with skeletons, which are mobs you’ll see on your very first night and they have aim bot on hard mode so that’s something.
@@ghost19101 Skeletons aren’t a problem if you know how to deal with. I never said fire protection is good, I would put it just above projectile protection because they are both ass. Projectile Protection is useless if you have a shield, whilst at least fire protection has maybe saved one or two lives projectile protection sucks. Also, you’re not gonna have projectile protection on your first night so why would it matter?
@@ghost19101sheild counters skeletons which makes projectile protection more useless than fire protection because at any time especially when strip mining or exploring the nether, you may fall in lava or get burned whithout even expecting it.
Which makes crossbows my go to option for tipped arrows usage. It’s like having smite on an axe, put healing arrows on crossbows for undead. Not necessary but fun. Slow is also nice.
Riptide is easily one of the most fun enchantments to get. You can outpace any player in the water, even if they have boats and you can fly around on a rainy day without an elytra. This is great in servers that outright ban elytras. When combined with one, you go so fast that you can crash servers. The main problem with Riptide is that Depth Strider works against it. For some reason, while you can launch yourself horizontally 30 blocks in one swing, with Depth Strider that value is cut by half (15 blocks). It has something to do with 'drag'. If Mojang fixed Riptide and Depth Strider and made it so that Depth Strider instead DOUBLED the dash from Riptide, I would love it SO much.
20:42 If you have fletcher villagers, they have a trade where they take in flint in return for emeralds. This can be way more useful than a block of gravel
a basic bamboo farm basically nerfs all of the fletcher villager’s buy trades by letting you get tons of sticks, especially once the auto crafter gets officially added and you can get free trading materials almost instantly
@@timonobel615 iron farms run so long as theyre loaded regardless of player location. Bamboo is frandom tick based. Wood farms are more annoying to setup than an iron farm. The server i play on used to use stick trades until i introduced them to the wonders of a 24/7 iron farm, which is very useful to have regardless of the trades anyway.
I think Fortune needs to be higher because most people aren't looking to put it on there shovel and it also works on crops, so its useful if you don't automatic farms
+ You would only put it on a shovel for farming flint so his arguement is really weak. If you want to farm gravel, just put silk touch on the shovel... Or am I missing something? Does it affect any other block when you put it on a shovel?
But if you do have auto farms, you won’t consider using fortune on crops. I think 8 is definitely high enough, it helps immensely with mining but everything above is definitely better. Also the flint thing hurts fortune a little bit
@@TwilightChomperEnthusiast it's a shame that the warden isn't supposed to be a boss, this game could really use a few new ones. Minecraft lacks more objectives and challenges so bosses could be a very easy way to fix that, like maybe even a blaze boss for the nether fortress? Or a piglin boss for the bastion?
@@RealValkor in the mob vote there was a blaze boss and Ulraf (a dev at Mojang) said that mobs that lost the mob vote go in Mojang's ideas library where potential ideas for future updates stay. those mobs will probably be added in far future updates.
Fortune 3 is also useful for farming. You can put it in a hoe and have multiple drops from crops. Yes, with auto-farm it becames pretty useless, but it cost nothing (talking about enchantments space) and at the beginning is useful: you can farm faster, take the excess for bone meal (composter) or trade with villagers faster.
I don't think blast protection is bad, in fact in a hardcore world it is practically mandatory to fear at least one piece with it, to avoid problems with sneky creepers
13:25 if you’re building large projects that require a lot of shifting on the edge of blocks and placing, swift sneak is probably the best enchantment.
@@user-ej5zq4nj3w yeah same in most cases when bridging. the only problem is that it’s purely a quality-of-life change and doesn’t add anything other than just making it quicker and less annoying. you can do everything you can do with swiftsneak without it if you wanted.
@@CharlCharl_ counterpoint: there are literally no downsides to having swift sneak. it won't even make the enchanting price too expensive if you want to make a maxed out pair of leggings.
With Riptide, most people just have two Tridents in there hot bar. It works as a really good way to start flying, since you don’t need to get to high ground, and everybody keeps water buckets on them 24/7 anyways.
@@uiinpui Firstly, if you have a decent farm you can just have a shulker full of fireworks at all time, rarely needing refills. And needing to wait for rain is way more annoying and time consuming than just farming for an hour.
Swift sneak is quite amazing when you build stuff. It might not seem like a lot of time saved but when you are in the air placing a ton of blocks/bridging its very noticeable.
Thanks for making it clear about FP. I'm playing Minecraft bedrock (now also java) for over 10 years and never thought how unworthy difference between fire protection and regular protection really is! Tbh I really didn't think that vid would surprise me smh or tell something new, but clicked it and really enjoyed. Keep going on!
I personally like setting up a tiny pool at the highest point of my base, launching off with riptide then flying off. Saves a bit on the fireworks + it's just fun
@@duckified. yeah, it was pretty op. Then, you just had to update it to upgrade that armor to netherite and you had the most powerful armor in Minecraft history.
@@duckified. that was on the early release of 1.14, can still switch and put all enchants on diamond armor, then switch back to 1.16 to make it netherite
I always have two shovels, one for flint and one for gravel. Either can be used for pretty much anything apart from the gravel shovel being the only that can get grass blocks if needed. My reasoning behind this is that if you can find an extreme hills biome, there's a TON of gravel there and a fletcher, which everyone has anyway for emerald trading from sticks, can also buy 24 flint for an emerald. Have 6-8 fletchers and you won't be having any problems with emeralds anytime soon as you can trade with sticks and flint for an emerald each trade.
I doubt this would've affected it's ranking, but Fire Aspect has an interesting quirk to it on Bedrock. Items with Fire Aspect (including enchantment books) can be used to light Candles/Campfires/TNT. Meaning if you happen to have a Fire Aspect book, you effectively have an infinite use Flint+Steel.
Other problems with Infinity is that you need at least 1 arrow in your inventory for it to work, which could waste a slot, and tipped and spectral arrows aren’t affected by Infinity
It not really a problem for me when having 1 arrow in inventory, have 2-3 stack arrow just not good for me ig. Mending fix item, ye that cool but most people only use bow when it really in bad situation, and it took really long to even break it with unbreaking 3.
my tip for tipped arrow is use is always have a piercing crossbow, it much better than using a bow because it load much faster and you can pick the arrow up so you have infinite tipped arrow
2 peices with fire protection + 2 with a normal protection will give you additional time in lava with a bit of a loss of protection. It IS useful, especially in the nether, where lava flows and kills faster.
@@LordPorkshire Wait you mean you *always* carry 27 stacks of random shit? I only have a full inv at like the start of a new world before I make a house. Armour, tools, food, torches and blocks take a mininal of 10 slots...amd even then 8 minutes of fire res in your inv is far too valuable not to carry. The only good way of using fire prot is to make a full second set of armour imo. Full set of Prot 4 is good enough tho so, its a waste tbh
Sweeping edge is actually a very good enchantment for one specific reason: mob farming. Now, while regular mob farms might not require sweeping edge, the easiest raid farm DOES require it for efficient afking, and it might be the most op farm in the game.
@@mickyj0101 If you build a tall-enderman farm instead of the simplistic platform one, the sweep attack will kill everything affected anyway without Sweeping because they are at half a heart already (sweep's base damage)
@@Camo-vr4jlonly on bedrock (assuming that glitch is still active). Furnace based xp sources is more useful as an xp storage rather than a traditional farm.
13:25 swift sneak is another enchant that is significantly better in bedrock edition, because in bedrock your shield is active only when crouching, so faster crouch means faster movement while shielding
I could also say in bedrock, the fire doesn't cover your view with fire protection at all, you just take damage but become immune to burning, but kinda bad with the fact you still take knockback and projectile damage from Blazes
not to mention when building its so helpful, i get so used to it that even in creative i enchant some leggings with it so i dont have to suffer sneaking without it. god i love swift sneak
Silk touch is awesome and has a feature that wasnt mentioned. So if anyone didn't know: If you mine a gold ore in the nether without silk touch you get gold nugget. And you need 9 for a gold ingot. If you mine a gold ore in the nether with silk touch you get the block. If you put that block in a furnace you get a gold ingot. So for creating g apples or g carrots or trading with piglins its super easy to get gold.
@@lemon01a couple friends and i build a big base in a mountainrange once and used waterlocked slabs together with riptide and elytras to get from one mountain to another super quickly without using rockets. it was a lot of fun.
@@lemon01 just because its as good as an elytra doesnt mean you SHOULD use an elytra, even though tridents are rare, they are a LOT easier to get than elytras Elytras: -Go to the end (needs eyes of ender from blaze powder and pearls, both annoying to get) -Beat the dragon (not hard, but time consuming and annoying, need to destroy crystals which are annoyingly placed and dragon keeps launching you 8471972 million miles per hour into the void along with the ocoassional endermen) -Find end city (either extremely easy or extremely hard/annoying, the latter is much more common) -overall few major steps but all hard, annoying, and time consuming Tridents: -Kill a ton of drowned (thats it, and drowned arent even *that* hard to get/find, just drown zombies or leave near an ocean lol)
For fortune shovels, 1: you can just get a silk touch shovel instead, 2: flint can be traded to villagers and is a decent way to farm emeralds while netherite mining
One thing about fire aspect, in bedrock, it can be used to light campfires, candles, and tnt. While this doesn’t effect your ranking as its Java only, you mentioned impaling in bedrock. Also I think it’s still cool and should come to Java.
Java has mods and bedrock has little to none and are locked behind a paywall for "behaviour packs" im pretty sure bedrock can keep some of its own cool features rather than bedrock just being a shadow of java
@@deadheat1635 yes it is but for right now, minecraft java vs bedrock is extremely controversial and its best to have both versions have their unique features. they wouldnt have 1 versions for all platforms because its mojang and mojang is terrible with this kind of like how they cant just add all 3 mobs to the game during a mob vote or something of that order
@@Astral_DivinityI play Bedrock, but I don't want Java players missing out on some of our better features. Especially since I want their better features lol. I think we can share the best of both worlds. Personally, I think they should do parity feature votes, to let the community decide which version of a feature they implement on both.
@@recycledwaste8737 i agree, believe it or not though, bedrock is alot more popular with the minecraft community. although most content creators farm their clout off of java, alot of kids begged their mother for minecraft on their phone. in other cases, most people cant afford a pc so they just play on their console version of the game i feel as if bedrock received the 1.9 combat changes to the game, the whole java vs bedrock ordeal would be a hell of a lot less controversial rather than bedrock players wrestling java players for “i want more damage on my axe” or “i want sweeping edge”
I think that this is the first ranking that I saw wich really shows arguments to the positions instead of favor the personal opinion. Great, great video. Thank you and congratulations.
I always enchant a single piece of armor with Blast Protection. Due to the way the Protection Cap works, it's worth the minor loss against generalized damage
7:00 I think that riptide is very good because you can just put a water bucket right beside you to activate the riptide and collect the water right before launching, effectively removing the requirement of being underwater
I had to point that out because I use it pretty often: netherite axe with smite 5 one-shots unarmored undeads not only with crits, but with the normal hits too. It's pretty nice when you don't want to fight the zombies spawning around your base for too long.
I don't know if this changed with recent updates, but I think you massively underestimate the specialized protection enchantments. This is because AFAIK, armor protection value is actually capped. If you have diamond armor, just putting protection IV on two pieces of it is enough to reach the cap. Every protection you put on it after that is entirely useless, so you might as well put fire and projectile protection on the other two pieces. Especially since it only takes ONE of these protections to reach their respective cap.
The enchantment protection cap is 20. Your enchantment protection value is divided by 25 to determine the reduction, so the cap is an 80% damage reduction (20/25 = 0.80) Each level of generic Protection increases your enchantment protection from pretty much all damage sources by 1. With 4 armor pieces with Protection IV, you are only at 16/25 (64% reduction). Each specialized type of Protection (Fire, Blast, and Projectile) provides 2 points of protection for that specific damage type. Feather Falling gives 3 points per level, but can also stack with the other Protections. IMO the best option is to use 3 Protection IV enchantments, then have one piece of armor with a specialized Protection IV, and at least Feather Falling III on the boots. That gives you 12/25 (48%) reduction to most damage, and the max (80%) to Fall Damage and whatever specialized damage protection you decide to go with. Personally my daily driver specialized protection actually is Fire Protection because an unexpected (no Potion of Fire Resistance) drop into Lava and not being able to get out immediately is a recipe to lose almost all of your carried items on a normal world (not-hardcore, no keepinventory), and Fire Protection also significantly decreases the player's burn time after getting out of lava/fire (on Java Edition only the single highest Fire Protection enchantment matters, and Fire Protection IV decreases burn time by 60%). Most other ways of dying drop your items on the ground in relative safety, so you have the chance to collect them again.
Note with piercing: -when using tipped arrows, you can pick them up again after it hit its target, meaning that you could shoot yourself with a positive effect and do so infinitely -it goes through shields (although no mobs spawn with shields)
Fire protection is sort of useful as it is capped at a certain amount, so by replacing one piece of your regular prot 4 with fire protection 4, it will max out the EPF (enchantment protection factor) Plus, if you combine all protection enchantments in 1.14 and update your world to 1.20 then it is really good
Yes but fire res potions are so cheap and easy to get, it isn't worth it especially on late game armor. Projectile Protection is useless, with prot doing almost as good against projectiles. The only piece that would be good for is blast prot but even then as long as you aren't stupid it doesn't do you as good as full prot 4 would. However yes if you do the 1.14 glitch and upgrade then it stupid OP
@@tersethunder2958 Fire res pots take up an inventory slot, and they are finite. Sorry but this guy is just straight wrong, Fire prot is necessary if you're playing anything other than PvP.
Projectile protection would be best used if you live in a snow biome. Take it from me someone who lived in a snow biome during 1.18 stray’s are the main mob, and they are belligerent and numerous. You will come to know their slowness arrows well, and at points you will come to hate them more then creepers. Also pro tip if you ever decide to live in a snow biome wait until the snow layers pile up they go up to a block and 1 layer. Trust me it’s easier to build everything 1 block higher then to shovel out your driveway every time it rains. Which it does a loooot.
Love that you brought up the alternative use cases for the curses in multiplayer! While they are objectively *negative* enchantments to have on your gear, I think curses are a great way to balance what is often otherwise powerful gear from loot chests - forcing you to weigh up the pros and cons and decide between equipping it, or leaving it and rolling the dice on better gear without a curse, or investing the time and resources on your own gear, safe from curses. unfortunately villager trading makes all of those choices obsolete as the best option, 100% of the time is to just trade for the gear and books... lmao
Honestly this is exactly why I wish there were more curses that actually did something ANYTHING to makes them more interesting than just mildly trolling your friends (as funny as curse of binding pumpkins are... Yeah there's a reason THATS the only thing people have to say about curse of binding)
@@mmmmmmmmmmmmmMicrowav there are other niche "uses" for binding; like in minigames or custom maps where you don't want people swapping their armour out, for example... but by design, for general survival purposes it's meant to be a negative aspect to an otherwise potentially good piece of gear/enchanted book as a tradeoff. some more curses they could add are maybe one which negatively affects durability, like an opposite of unbreaking, and another that hides all additional information; like any lore, contents, enchantments, or the durability of the item it's on... I've seen some good ideas for new curses, but also a fair amount of bad ones - too many try to make them actually useful, or so negative there's genuinely no reason to ever use anything with it at all, which isn't what curses are meant to be. The current means of gearing up from villagers needs to change first tho, otherwise there's not much point in adding new curses to shake up a gameplay loop players aren't really engaging with to begin with because its so far outclassed by another, infinitely abusable system.
Fire protection actually helped me once when i was digging netherites below a giant lava lake. I finally decided to swim to the surface by just taking lava damage. 😂
Swift Sneak is actually super useful on Multiplayer because you can sneak to hide your nametag while also moving the same speed you would walking normally, so I actually really like this enchantment.
I'd say that, contrary to popular belief, silk touch is the most important enchantment, as it is the only one capable of indirectly expanding your inventory slots. Think about it for a second, would you rather have self-repairing tools or 27 extra inventory slots (729 given that you use them all for shulker boxes)
Great Video as Always! Small side note on Unbreaking however: Contrary to what seems to be somewhat popular belief, Unbreaking doesn't *increase* item durability. It simply makes it to where theres a chance for an item to not use up durability upon use (breaking blocks, taking damage, etc) This theoretically means that if you have some god-tier terrible luck, you can burn through an entire tool without Unbreaking being used ONCE. Of course, it's still great to have Unbreaking when you can, but just something funny to think about.
i’ve kinda found that out when i go mend my armor in a farm i took fall damage and i wondered why it did nothing to my boots/armor, and that’s 3/4 prot 4, 1 fire prot 4 and ff 4 armor *bedrock PE*. thx for the full explanation tho
@@Simplyjokes Fall damage can't be protected by unenchanted armors and protection enchantments don't use up any extra durabilities. So no matter how high you've fallen they won't ever be damaged
Bro riptide is really good for saving firework rockets, with elytra if you spam spacebar when you riptide you go mega far and will save a ton of rockets. Its especially better when you consider that tridents aren't super good for combat in java (a separate issue) so while yeah channeling is unique riptide is also a good option and usually the first I go for on a trident.
11:38 compliments how this enchantment makes rain more exciting, but complains about riptide for the same reason. make up your mind dude, riptide is amazing
I recently started using the enchant and repair mod for forge. It rebalances enchants to promote more adventuring and repairing of armor rather than just immediately making god armor that never breaks.
14:30 Actually, you don't even need a critical hit. A Smite V netherite sword, netherite axe and diamond axe will take out undead mobs in one normal hit. A Smite V diamond sword can do it with one critical hit.
@@Odyssey_Central That can't be though! I just loaded up a 1.20 world and did a test. Falling 23 blocks left me on half a heart. With full Protection IV diamond armor I only took 3 hearts of damage from the fall. This is an excerpt from the wiki page on protection: "Damage reduction from Protection, Fire Protection, Feather Falling, Blast Protection, and Projectile Protection stacks up to an upper limit of 80%" If it says it stacks with feather falling, that imply it works in addition to feather falling, reducing fall damage.
@@CommanderBox. Protection is in fact required to reach maximum DR against fall damage, as feather falling alone only reduces damage taken by 48% at level 4
personally, Swift Sneak is pretty useful especially if you like building alot since building requires alot of shift usage and makes the movement while building slightly faster
if you want to raid ancient cities without dying to the warden (if youre like me and accidentally set shriekers off despite trying really hard not to) swift sneak iii is awesome. even if the warden spawns, you can get away while crouching super easily and itll eventually go back into the ground and you keep doing what you were doing. its also fun to use while bridging!
Insane that you put riptide so low. Free launches with elytra without needing rockets. In the rain, the speed of travel is incredible. Also, if you are doing anything underwater from mining blue ice, hunting guardians, drowned, squids, etc. Or searching for sniffer eggs it's going to make things far faster.
Swift sneak is pretty useful for building, anyone that’s had to shift for like, 10 straight minutes as they build up in the air knows how slow it feels and having the movement be significantly faster without risking falling because you’re not sneaking is great.
Swift sneak can be useful on bedrock as you have to crouch to use shields, allowing you to move faster while blocking and also can be useful in pvp as nametags are invisible when crouching
Swift sneak is one of the best enchantments, because when you're building anything, it requires a lot of sneaking, so the enchantment can really fasten the process.
I think multishot is solid just because of cross bow stacking, which ik is a very niche thing but it allows you to quickly drop people in PvP so it’s worth mentioning.
swift sneak is essential for strip mining at fast rates. i sprint then shift walk hold and mine away and dont need to worry about falling while basically mining full speed
The sad thing about Tridents in Minecraft is how Drown spawns and Trident drop rates are so different in Bedrock and Java Edition. In Bedrock Edition from my experience they are one of the most common enemies and have a higher chance to drop a Trident than Java but on Java Edition Drowns are hard to find and Tridents have a very low chance to drop. This has locked Java players out of the most efficient killing mechanism in Minecraft. The Trident Killer. What makes it amazing is that the Trident uses the effects of what you are holding. So if you are holding a looting 3 sword the Trident will use looting 3 and it will drop XP and this is why both Editions should have high Drop rates for Tridents but make Drowns have a low chance of spawning.
There is also the fact that the trident damage is calculated differently, on Java it does a damage boost to aquatic mobs, whereas on Bedrock is does a damage boost in wet conditions
The spawn rates for drowned between Bedrock and Java feel like polar opposites. Drowned are mainly found uncommonly throughout the ocean and more reliably around ocean ruins, while Bedrock drowned spawn in ANY WATER BIOME in HUGE NUMBERS! Before 1.19 you couldn't even swim across a river without five drowned chasing you.
don't you need 26 flint to get 1 emerald?? if you have the resources to cure a villager enough times to reduce the price to 1, just cure a fletcher at that point. one log gives you 8 sticks, while one gravel can only give you one flint. even if your fletcher doesn't have the discount, you only need 4 logs to get 32 sticks. that's about 6 times LESS blocks you need to mine to trade for an emerald. ANOTHER counterpoint: fletchers can also convert 10 gravel to 10 flint for one emerald. bottom line is: just use fletchers.
@@duckified.Villager trades are limited. And gravel is super neat to farm in the nether after you farmed for some netherite since: 1. it breaks instantly 2. there are always huge chunks of it 3. You can find random netherite within the gravel So overall a really nice addition for Fortune which is clearly way better than Silk Touch
Blast protection is actually really nice when using beds to find ancient debris. I just use some of the armour I got when getting the elytra, so I don’t even have to make any
Fortune III on a shovel can actually be useful when gathering flint to trade with weapon Smith villagers, especially when you make their prices drop to 1
Fire protection would be B or A if you could stack it with regular protection. If you had both enchantments on a full set of armor, it would probably negate the use of fire potions entirely. Unfortunately though, it sucks
riptide is my favorite enchantment I'm surprised you rated it so low. It's really useful for traveling when you don't have a elytra yet because you can just place a water bucket wait for it to spread a bit then pick it back up and before all the water disappears you have more than enough time to use the trident to fly forward, when you get good with it it's pretty fast and really fun
I guess I think it's this usefull because I only play minecraft on friend servers and we have the end "locked" for the first 2 weeks and then we all go in together that's why I get it before the elytra
Take note that all prot enchantments (that arent default protection) only require one piece of armor to gain its full effect. So you could get one piece of armor with blast prot and have its full effect, resisting any blasts
Fire Protection definitely isn't worse than Bane of Arthropods and Projectile Protection, you probably didn't know but there is a cap for how much Protection can protect from and that actually means that the best option is to have 3 armor pieces with Protection (Best to exclude the chest-plate) and the last one should have another enchantment and imo it's between Blast Protection and Fire Protection. Blast Protection can come in clutch to help with a deadly explosion but that wont happen often whereas protecting from fire can be helpful in more situations, I'd still maybe give the edge to Blast Protection but it's not significantly better.
This. Not to mention the way that this mechanic works means that even if only one of your pieces of armor has one of the alternative protections and the others have standard protection, the game will treat it as if all your armor also has the other protection type. This makes blast and fire protection insanely effective on just one piece of armor and makes it so you stop burning after only two fire ticks which is very convenient. If you're a potion conessuer however, blast protection on your 4th armor is objectively the best.
true, although considering an average survival world a player will often have only three pieces of armor on because of the elytra. in that situation I think a blast protection chestplate is a must, because fire res potions are much more useful
This is true but you kinda phrased it poorly. Full prot 4 reduces all damage by 64%, not reaching the 80% limit. Having one piece or armour (Usually chestplate as you said) as one of the other protection enchants is all you need to reach the limit for that type of protection so it's good if you're gonna be taking that damage type a lot but Full prot 4 is generally more effective otherwise. I agree that fire prot should be way higher though, lava is one of the only things that can really kill you endgame so making yourself basically immune to it is very useful.
3 pieces of armour with prot 4 gives max prot. So you can have either blast prot or fire prot on your last piece of armour to get that extra bonus. Fire prot isn’t as useful as blast prot but can save you if you get knocked off a fortress and land in the middle of a lava lake
Edit: After looking at the comments, yeah I’d probably move riptide up, just under sweeping edge. I still don’t think it’s great but I underrated it. Fire protection still sucks though everyone saying it’s good are insane.

I rarely see anyone mention the fact that piercing hits players through shields. I think that makes it a worth enough enchantment in a PvP scenario, and while it might not be a game changing enchant, I feel like it deserves more credit for it.
Exactly. The crossbow in general is a pretty weird and niche weapon, which I love. If you're in the right situation, at the right time and are prepared... it's the most insanely broken, absolutely vile thing in the game... anywhere outside, it's just barely ok.
Only problem it only works on crossbow

Piercing is op against raids.
and you can save a shot for later too
it just locks when you move to a different slot

No more complex speed bridges as well! I suck ass at them so having my crouch speed be my walk speed is perfect
Fax swift sneek is so good
A cool feature of riptide is that if it is used in your offhand and you have a weapon in your main hand, any enchantments on the main hand weapon will apply to the spin on impact. I’d honestly recommend having two tridents for this exact reason.
You forgot to mention one thing about fire aspect/flame. If the fire kills the mob, and u have looting on ur sword, the mob wont give u more drops. It will basically ignore looting. Also sweeping edge makes a huge difference in endermen farms
.....That explains a lot

Punch on a bow can be pretty darn useful for pvp and pve. Keeping a target away from you and enabling you to keep using your bow is pretty good.
Nothing more satisfying than seeing jobs get launched after getting sniped
I was gonna say the thing. If you’re gonna take the time to enchant a badass bow you’re gonna want to keep the baddies far away
Blast protection is super underrated. I wouldnt reccomend having it on every piece or anything, but having it on just one can help a lot especially in hardcore. 3 pieces of protection armour or 2 if youre wearing elytra already stops almost anything from killing you with explosions being the last real thing that can, so it stops those in particular
The math checks out on this.
4 prot 4 armor pieces: 64% reduction from all relevant damage types
that's 16% per armor piece, and 4% per individual level of protection
The specialized protections (fire/proj/blast) are all double this, so 32% from full blast protection 4.
If you wear 3 protection pieces and one blast protection piece, you have 48% for general damage, and 80% (which happens to be the cap for protection % from armor) for blast damage. This is actually super useful if your maxed out armor is only going to let you die to a creeper, or if you're one of those guys that does end crystal pvp.
EDIT: yes the 80% cap means that it's a waste to wear more than 1 non-protection piece of armor.
32% (2 protection pieces) + 64% (2 blast protection pieces) = 96%
this is above the cap, functioning as 80%
To be fair there aren't many explosive things that can kill you late game
@@Randomboi863 end crystals, respawn anchors, beds, withers exploding, charged creeper are just a few that spring to mind straight away. I see your point more on singleplayer but multiplayer it is very useful

Advocating for swift sneak !!
Sneaking hides your gamertag in most pvp gamemodes, making sneak attacks, flanking attacks, escaping, and avoiding danger altogether MUCH easier. In any prolonged engagement especially involving complex and multileveled terrain/architecture, a treeline, and/or especially underground you get a very substantial leg up and if you and your opponent are both trying to sneak to reposition or racing to grab an important item you will be able to outmaneuver them every time. Also its good for mining ravine walls and making a bridge over ledges especially in places like the nether or end. Swift sneak is underrated imo
He said he would only be ranking them based on their usefulness in Java survival mode. Not multiplayer. But I do see the point with bridging

I think Projectile Protection should be even lower. For just 1 Iron Ingot you can make a shield which just Blocks 100% of the damage of Arrows (or Creeper Explosions btw). The only thing I can give it is that it doesn't have a potion effect and when you fight 3 or more Skeletons at the same time, you might not block all the arrows.
Protecti9n is the best but fire protection is better than projectile protection
@@Lazy_.LavenderWhy the fuck would you willingly step into lava without a *fire resistance* potion which literally makes you *immune* to the effect and by the time you get to the nether you’ll probably already have shields and armor with protection 4 and mending which are infinitely better and at least projectile protection helps with dealing with skeletons, which are mobs you’ll see on your very first night and they have aim bot on hard mode so that’s something.
@@ghost19101 Skeletons aren’t a problem if you know how to deal with. I never said fire protection is good, I would put it just above projectile protection because they are both ass.

Also, you’re not gonna have projectile protection on your first night so why would it matter?

Riptide is easily one of the most fun enchantments to get. You can outpace any player in the water, even if they have boats and you can fly around on a rainy day without an elytra. This is great in servers that outright ban elytras. When combined with one, you go so fast that you can crash servers.
The main problem with Riptide is that Depth Strider works against it. For some reason, while you can launch yourself horizontally 30 blocks in one swing, with Depth Strider that value is cut by half (15 blocks). It has something to do with 'drag'. If Mojang fixed Riptide and Depth Strider and made it so that Depth Strider instead DOUBLED the dash from Riptide, I would love it SO much.
It is also the only effective way to travel through ocean bioms with an elytra since there is no other good way to start your flight without it.

+ You would only put it on a shovel for farming flint so his arguement is really weak. If you want to farm gravel, just put silk touch on the shovel...
Or am I missing something? Does it affect any other block when you put it on a shovel?

Yes, with auto-farm it becames pretty useless, but it cost nothing (talking about enchantments space) and at the beginning is useful: you can farm faster, take the excess for bone meal (composter) or trade with villagers faster.

Swift sneak is quite amazing when you build stuff. It might not seem like a lot of time saved but when you are in the air placing a ton of blocks/bridging its very noticeable.

Great video. Glad you had fun making it.
I always have two shovels, one for flint and one for gravel. Either can be used for pretty much anything apart from the gravel shovel being the only that can get grass blocks if needed.
My reasoning behind this is that if you can find an extreme hills biome, there's a TON of gravel there and a fletcher, which everyone has anyway for emerald trading from sticks, can also buy 24 flint for an emerald.
Have 6-8 fletchers and you won't be having any problems with emeralds anytime soon as you can trade with sticks and flint for an emerald each trade.
I doubt this would've affected it's ranking, but Fire Aspect has an interesting quirk to it on Bedrock.
Items with Fire Aspect (including enchantment books) can be used to light Candles/Campfires/TNT. Meaning if you happen to have a Fire Aspect book, you effectively have an infinite use Flint+Steel.

one thing to mention is that swift sneak makes bridging faster if you don't want to risk speed bridging
2 peices with fire protection + 2 with a normal protection will give you additional time in lava with a bit of a loss of protection. It IS useful, especially in the nether, where lava flows and kills faster.

Sweeping edge is actually a very good enchantment for one specific reason: mob farming. Now, while regular mob farms might not require sweeping edge, the easiest raid farm DOES require it for efficient afking, and it might be the most op farm in the game.
Plus you get xp so much faster in an enderman farm with it. That's why I always look for it once I've built one.

@@mickyj0101 If you build a tall-enderman farm instead of the simplistic platform one, the sweep attack will kill everything affected anyway without Sweeping because they are at half a heart already (sweep's base damage)

@@Camo-vr4jlonly on bedrock (assuming that glitch is still active). Furnace based xp sources is more useful as an xp storage rather than a traditional farm.
13:25 swift sneak is another enchant that is significantly better in bedrock edition, because in bedrock your shield is active only when crouching, so faster crouch means faster movement while shielding
Its also useful when bridging in java
as a bedrock player, I agree (also play java)
I could also say in bedrock, the fire doesn't cover your view with fire protection at all, you just take damage but become immune to burning, but kinda bad with the fact you still take knockback and projectile damage from Blazes

Decent? Nah. Just get sticks or auto-carrot farms. Farming flint is less than mediocre imo.
One thing about fire aspect, in bedrock, it can be used to light campfires, candles, and tnt. While this doesn’t effect your ranking as its Java only, you mentioned impaling in bedrock. Also I think it’s still cool and should come to Java.

I always enchant a single piece of armor with Blast Protection. Due to the way the Protection Cap works, it's worth the minor loss against generalized damage
After making a couple builds with the swift sneak enchantment equipped I absolutely can't miss it anymore. It's definitely A tier for me
7:00 I think that riptide is very good because you can just put a water bucket right beside you to activate the riptide and collect the water right before launching, effectively removing the requirement of being underwater

@@sofiaaspritoiu3099 The whole point was being able to re collect the water before use, try reading next time
Mixed with elytra you can save so many rockets
I had to point that out because I use it pretty often: netherite axe with smite 5 one-shots unarmored undeads not only with crits, but with the normal hits too. It's pretty nice when you don't want to fight the zombies spawning around your base for too long.
I don't know if this changed with recent updates, but I think you massively underestimate the specialized protection enchantments. This is because AFAIK, armor protection value is actually capped. If you have diamond armor, just putting protection IV on two pieces of it is enough to reach the cap. Every protection you put on it after that is entirely useless, so you might as well put fire and projectile protection on the other two pieces. Especially since it only takes ONE of these protections to reach their respective cap.
The enchantment protection cap is 20. Your enchantment protection value is divided by 25 to determine the reduction, so the cap is an 80% damage reduction (20/25 = 0.80)
Each level of generic Protection increases your enchantment protection from pretty much all damage sources by 1. With 4 armor pieces with Protection IV, you are only at 16/25 (64% reduction).
Each specialized type of Protection (Fire, Blast, and Projectile) provides 2 points of protection for that specific damage type. Feather Falling gives 3 points per level, but can also stack with the other Protections.
IMO the best option is to use 3 Protection IV enchantments, then have one piece of armor with a specialized Protection IV, and at least Feather Falling III on the boots. That gives you 12/25 (48%) reduction to most damage, and the max (80%) to Fall Damage and whatever specialized damage protection you decide to go with.
Personally my daily driver specialized protection actually is Fire Protection because an unexpected (no Potion of Fire Resistance) drop into Lava and not being able to get out immediately is a recipe to lose almost all of your carried items on a normal world (not-hardcore, no keepinventory), and Fire Protection also significantly decreases the player's burn time after getting out of lava/fire (on Java Edition only the single highest Fire Protection enchantment matters, and Fire Protection IV decreases burn time by 60%). Most other ways of dying drop your items on the ground in relative safety, so you have the chance to collect them again.
Note with piercing:
-when using tipped arrows, you can pick them up again after it hit its target, meaning that you could shoot yourself with a positive effect and do so infinitely
-it goes through shields (although no mobs spawn with shields)
Was looking for this comment
Pillagers can have Piercing crossbows, and it works the same way.
Fire protection is sort of useful as it is capped at a certain amount, so by replacing one piece of your regular prot 4 with fire protection 4, it will max out the EPF (enchantment protection factor)
Plus, if you combine all protection enchantments in 1.14 and update your world to 1.20 then it is really good
Yes but fire res potions are so cheap and easy to get, it isn't worth it especially on late game armor. Projectile Protection is useless, with prot doing almost as good against projectiles. The only piece that would be good for is blast prot but even then as long as you aren't stupid it doesn't do you as good as full prot 4 would. However yes if you do the 1.14 glitch and upgrade then it stupid OP
Yeah thats also why full blast prot is stupid in cpvp
@@tersethunder2958 blast prot is op because crystal pvp exists
@@abylehere yeah people shouldn't do full blast prot in cpvp because it is literally useless
@@tersethunder2958 Fire res pots take up an inventory slot, and they are finite. Sorry but this guy is just straight wrong, Fire prot is necessary if you're playing anything other than PvP.
I love how you used song of storms for the channeling enchantment
Projectile protection would be best used if you live in a snow biome. Take it from me someone who lived in a snow biome during 1.18 stray’s are the main mob, and they are belligerent and numerous. You will come to know their slowness arrows well, and at points you will come to hate them more then creepers.
Also pro tip if you ever decide to live in a snow biome wait until the snow layers pile up they go up to a block and 1 layer. Trust me it’s easier to build everything 1 block higher then to shovel out your driveway every time it rains. Which it does a loooot.
11:03 Doesn't hit the pufferfish. Brings 0 attention to it and moves on. What a power move
Love that you brought up the alternative use cases for the curses in multiplayer! While they are objectively *negative* enchantments to have on your gear, I think curses are a great way to balance what is often otherwise powerful gear from loot chests - forcing you to weigh up the pros and cons and decide between equipping it, or leaving it and rolling the dice on better gear without a curse, or investing the time and resources on your own gear, safe from curses.
unfortunately villager trading makes all of those choices obsolete as the best option, 100% of the time is to just trade for the gear and books... lmao
Honestly this is exactly why I wish there were more curses that actually did something
ANYTHING to makes them more interesting than just mildly trolling your friends (as funny as curse of binding pumpkins are... Yeah there's a reason THATS the only thing people have to say about curse of binding)
@@mmmmmmmmmmmmmMicrowav there are other niche "uses" for binding; like in minigames or custom maps where you don't want people swapping their armour out, for example... but by design, for general survival purposes it's meant to be a negative aspect to an otherwise potentially good piece of gear/enchanted book as a tradeoff.
some more curses they could add are maybe one which negatively affects durability, like an opposite of unbreaking, and another that hides all additional information; like any lore, contents, enchantments, or the durability of the item it's on... I've seen some good ideas for new curses, but also a fair amount of bad ones - too many try to make them actually useful, or so negative there's genuinely no reason to ever use anything with it at all, which isn't what curses are meant to be.
The current means of gearing up from villagers needs to change first tho, otherwise there's not much point in adding new curses to shake up a gameplay loop players aren't really engaging with to begin with because its so far outclassed by another, infinitely abusable system.
I know that grindstones don't remove curses but I would take the gear anyway because heavily enchanted stuff is a good source of xp
You forgot that if you have a riptide trident and your in a fight, you can get out of that fight in an instant if there is water near you
Yep and u pretty much always bring a water bucket cause why won't u bring one unless in the nether
Fire protection actually helped me once when i was digging netherites below a giant lava lake. I finally decided to swim to the surface by just taking lava damage. 😂
Swift Sneak is actually super useful on Multiplayer because you can sneak to hide your nametag while also moving the same speed you would walking normally, so I actually really like this enchantment.
What people havent realized is that on bedrock swift sneak basically allows for a crouched sprint meaning you can sprint at one with a shield up
I'd say that, contrary to popular belief, silk touch is the most important enchantment, as it is the only one capable of indirectly expanding your inventory slots.
Think about it for a second, would you rather have self-repairing tools or 27 extra inventory slots (729 given that you use them all for shulker boxes)
Self repairing tools.
@@dhans9662 you can get an unlimited supply of them with villagers, although more tedious the effort is worth 27 extra inventory slots
Great Video as Always! Small side note on Unbreaking however: Contrary to what seems to be somewhat popular belief, Unbreaking doesn't *increase* item durability. It simply makes it to where theres a chance for an item to not use up durability upon use (breaking blocks, taking damage, etc)
This theoretically means that if you have some god-tier terrible luck, you can burn through an entire tool without Unbreaking being used ONCE. Of course, it's still great to have Unbreaking when you can, but just something funny to think about.
i’ve kinda found that out when i go mend my armor in a farm i took fall damage and i wondered why it did nothing to my boots/armor, and that’s 3/4 prot 4, 1 fire prot 4 and ff 4 armor *bedrock PE*. thx for the full explanation tho
Yeah, I don't know why they did that, just make it last 3 times as long with level 3
@@Simplyjokes Fall damage can't be protected by unenchanted armors and protection enchantments don't use up any extra durabilities. So no matter how high you've fallen they won't ever be damaged
I also found on wiki that unbreaking on armor is dogwater compared to other gears. It increases on average only 30% of durability (max level).
Bro riptide is really good for saving firework rockets, with elytra if you spam spacebar when you riptide you go mega far and will save a ton of rockets. Its especially better when you consider that tridents aren't super good for combat in java (a separate issue) so while yeah channeling is unique riptide is also a good option and usually the first I go for on a trident.
I agree, putting riptide that low has got to be some sort of crime lol
Multi shot is higher than riptide im done with this tier list bye
And you can use it during rain to go crazy distances super fast
counterpoint: it's not always raining.
@@duckified. pretty sure they just mean riptiding out of water
11:38 compliments how this enchantment makes rain more exciting, but complains about riptide for the same reason. make up your mind dude, riptide is amazing
The thing is that riptide makes your trident practically unusable as soon as you're out of the water
Riptide is literally only fun. It’s borderline useless for anything else if you’d rather have it over loyalty I’m genuinely puzzled.
I recently started using the enchant and repair mod for forge. It rebalances enchants to promote more adventuring and repairing of armor rather than just immediately making god armor that never breaks.
14:30 Actually, you don't even need a critical hit. A Smite V netherite sword, netherite axe and diamond axe will take out undead mobs in one normal hit. A Smite V diamond sword can do it with one critical hit.
Small error at 22:45 - Protection *does* reduce damage from falling as well, making it combine with feather falling perfectly.
I thought so as well but I did my own test and looked at the wiki and apparently it doesn’t, maybe it used to and was changed?
@@Odyssey_Central That can't be though! I just loaded up a 1.20 world and did a test.
Falling 23 blocks left me on half a heart.
With full Protection IV diamond armor I only took 3 hearts of damage from the fall.
This is an excerpt from the wiki page on protection:
"Damage reduction from Protection, Fire Protection, Feather Falling, Blast Protection, and Projectile Protection stacks up to an upper limit of 80%"
If it says it stacks with feather falling, that imply it works in addition to feather falling, reducing fall damage.
@@CommanderBox. Protection is in fact required to reach maximum DR against fall damage, as feather falling alone only reduces damage taken by 48% at level 4
personally, Swift Sneak is pretty useful especially if you like building alot since building requires alot of shift usage and makes the movement while building slightly faster
if you want to raid ancient cities without dying to the warden (if youre like me and accidentally set shriekers off despite trying really hard not to) swift sneak iii is awesome. even if the warden spawns, you can get away while crouching super easily and itll eventually go back into the ground and you keep doing what you were doing. its also fun to use while bridging!
Insane that you put riptide so low. Free launches with elytra without needing rockets. In the rain, the speed of travel is incredible. Also, if you are doing anything underwater from mining blue ice, hunting guardians, drowned, squids, etc. Or searching for sniffer eggs it's going to make things far faster.
Yeah I also think it's good with impaling 5 in bedrock minecraft because you just throw it you go flying and they die one hit
6:25 riptide is op. You can also use it to trident pearl.
Riptide is better than loyalty
Bruv he wants loyalty and channeling on a trident you can't throw
One is for movement, one is for combat.
you cannot value one over the other
You earned a subscription from this video was awesome
I love that you have super Mario galaxy music. That’s literally the best video game ever made. Thank you
Swift sneak is pretty useful for building, anyone that’s had to shift for like, 10 straight minutes as they build up in the air knows how slow it feels and having the movement be significantly faster without risking falling because you’re not sneaking is great.
21:50 i Love how he shows only a button XD
7:50 in bedrock, it actually lets you sprint jump
There’s a use for fire protection. If you haven’t gone to the nether you can’t make a fire res potion. But it’s not important. Just get fire res.
Swift sneak can be useful on bedrock as you have to crouch to use shields, allowing you to move faster while blocking
and also can be useful in pvp as nametags are invisible when crouching
Swift sneak is one of the best enchantments, because when you're building anything, it requires a lot of sneaking, so the enchantment can really fasten the process.
I think multishot is solid just because of cross bow stacking, which ik is a very niche thing but it allows you to quickly drop people in PvP so it’s worth mentioning.
swift sneak is essential for strip mining at fast rates. i sprint then shift walk hold and mine away and dont need to worry about falling while basically mining full speed
The sad thing about Tridents in Minecraft is how Drown spawns and Trident drop rates are so different in Bedrock and Java Edition. In Bedrock Edition from my experience they are one of the most common enemies and have a higher chance to drop a Trident than Java but on Java Edition Drowns are hard to find and Tridents have a very low chance to drop. This has locked Java players out of the most efficient killing mechanism in Minecraft. The Trident Killer. What makes it amazing is that the Trident uses the effects of what you are holding. So if you are holding a looting 3 sword the Trident will use looting 3 and it will drop XP and this is why both Editions should have high Drop rates for Tridents but make Drowns have a low chance of spawning.
Trident killers don't actually work well in Java, the bedrock ones are really what shine especially from enchantment stacking
There is also the fact that the trident damage is calculated differently, on Java it does a damage boost to aquatic mobs, whereas on Bedrock is does a damage boost in wet conditions
@@danielcrud9345 why did you have to say it like that
They spawn TOO much in Bedrock. Believe me. I had to add like 2 stacks of Glowstone to a pond to stop Drowned spawns. And Tridents aren't that useful.
The spawn rates for drowned between Bedrock and Java feel like polar opposites. Drowned are mainly found uncommonly throughout the ocean and more reliably around ocean ruins, while Bedrock drowned spawn in ANY WATER BIOME in HUGE NUMBERS! Before 1.19 you couldn't even swim across a river without five drowned chasing you.
21:00 Flint is very important in Villager trades, so it does have a pretty good use there.
don't you need 26 flint to get 1 emerald?? if you have the resources to cure a villager enough times to reduce the price to 1, just cure a fletcher at that point. one log gives you 8 sticks, while one gravel can only give you one flint. even if your fletcher doesn't have the discount, you only need 4 logs to get 32 sticks. that's about 6 times LESS blocks you need to mine to trade for an emerald.
ANOTHER counterpoint: fletchers can also convert 10 gravel to 10 flint for one emerald. bottom line is: just use fletchers.
@@duckified.Villager trades are limited. And gravel is super neat to farm in the nether after you farmed for some netherite since: 1. it breaks instantly 2. there are always huge chunks of it 3. You can find random netherite within the gravel
So overall a really nice addition for Fortune which is clearly way better than Silk Touch
Blast protection is actually really nice when using beds to find ancient debris. I just use some of the armour I got when getting the elytra, so I don’t even have to make any
Just place a block in front of you that literally makes you take less damage than a piece of blast protection armor
Fortune III on a shovel can actually be useful when gathering flint to trade with weapon Smith villagers, especially when you make their prices drop to 1
Fire protection would be B or A if you could stack it with regular protection. If you had both enchantments on a full set of armor, it would probably negate the use of fire potions entirely. Unfortunately though, it sucks
riptide is my favorite enchantment I'm surprised you rated it so low. It's really useful for traveling when you don't have a elytra yet because you can just place a water bucket wait for it to spread a bit then pick it back up and before all the water disappears you have more than enough time to use the trident to fly forward, when you get good with it it's pretty fast and really fun
Considering how hard it is to get a trident a lot of people will have or will be getting an elytra soon
I have never ever gotten a trident, let alone a riptide trident, before an elytra
I guess I think it's this usefull because I only play minecraft on friend servers and we have the end "locked" for the first 2 weeks and then we all go in together that's why I get it before the elytra
A riptide trident is always my first major goal in a survival world. It makes traveling up and sideways a LOT easier.
No way riptide is a D tier 💀
Watching an enderman spam-teleport as it burns is hands down the funniest and most entertaining thing in the game for me.
Take note that all prot enchantments (that arent default protection) only require one piece of armor to gain its full effect. So you could get one piece of armor with blast prot and have its full effect, resisting any blasts
Now I reqire the math if it is better then regular protection. Then you'll change my mind.
It's important to clarify that this only applies if you have prot 4 enchanted on every other piece of gear.
@@kevinthegreatandthemighty1403 on hardcore three prot 4 armor pieces and 1 blastprotection is nice because creepers are op
@@alexanderlea7882 so one ProtProj, one BlastProt and two Protection won't work?
TIL. What version of the game was it added in?
Fire Protection definitely isn't worse than Bane of Arthropods and Projectile Protection, you probably didn't know but there is a cap for how much Protection can protect from and that actually means that the best option is to have 3 armor pieces with Protection (Best to exclude the chest-plate) and the last one should have another enchantment and imo it's between Blast Protection and Fire Protection. Blast Protection can come in clutch to help with a deadly explosion but that wont happen often whereas protecting from fire can be helpful in more situations, I'd still maybe give the edge to Blast Protection but it's not significantly better.
This. Not to mention the way that this mechanic works means that even if only one of your pieces of armor has one of the alternative protections and the others have standard protection, the game will treat it as if all your armor also has the other protection type. This makes blast and fire protection insanely effective on just one piece of armor and makes it so you stop burning after only two fire ticks which is very convenient. If you're a potion conessuer however, blast protection on your 4th armor is objectively the best.
true, although considering an average survival world a player will often have only three pieces of armor on because of the elytra. in that situation I think a blast protection chestplate is a must, because fire res potions are much more useful
This is true but you kinda phrased it poorly. Full prot 4 reduces all damage by 64%, not reaching the 80% limit. Having one piece or armour (Usually chestplate as you said) as one of the other protection enchants is all you need to reach the limit for that type of protection so it's good if you're gonna be taking that damage type a lot but Full prot 4 is generally more effective otherwise. I agree that fire prot should be way higher though, lava is one of the only things that can really kill you endgame so making yourself basically immune to it is very useful.
@@p055am I didn't exactly know the specifics, only the general stuff so if I phrased it poorly that's why. Thanks for elaborating.
Incorrect. More regular protection is always better, unless you're throwing yourself into lava constantly for some reason.
Swift Sneak is really good for building out because you can place blocks faster while crouched. One of my favourite perks now. HUGE time saver.
3 pieces of armour with prot 4 gives max prot. So you can have either blast prot or fire prot on your last piece of armour to get that extra bonus. Fire prot isn’t as useful as blast prot but can save you if you get knocked off a fortress and land in the middle of a lava lake
1. This isn't even true check the wiki
2. Fire res potions exist
