Reach Enchantment

A vanilla datapack that adds a Reach enchantment, letting you hit mobs from further away. No mods, no resource packs.

How to Use

Enchant any sword, axe, or mace with Reach Enchantment, you have to find the enchantment book.

Level	Bonus reach	Total attack range
Reach I	+0.5 blocks	3.5 blocks
Reach II	+1.0 blocks	4.0 blocks
Reach III	+1.5 blocks	4.5 blocks
Reach IV	+2.0 blocks	5.0 blocks
Reach V	+2.5 blocks	5.5 blocks

Where to Get It

Ominous Vault — the only source in the game
Anvil — combine books to upgrade up to Reach V

Reach is a treasure enchantment, kept out of the enchanting table, villager trades, and random loot. Each ominous vault has a 7% chance to drop a Reach Enchantment book, so it always stays a special find. Books drop at Reach II–IV, so combine two on the anvil to push one to Reach V.

Additions

Flat bonus per level: +0.5 blocks of attack reach, every level
No conflicts: Reach doesn't clash with Sharpness, Fire Aspect, or anything else
Only in your main hand: works exactly like vanilla weapon enchantments
