Alakazam – PvP Enchantment Overhaul (Forge 1.20.1)

Alakazam shakes up the Minecraft combat meta by introducing a wide variety of new enchantments and curses that make every fight more strategic. Movement, damage, utility, and risk-based power all collide to create a fresh PvP experience.

Tools (Axes, Pickaxes, Shovels)

Smolder – Auto-smelts blocks when not sneaking.

Bows

Burst – Arrows may deal AOE damage on impact, damaging nearby mobs.

Crossbows

Petrify – Freezes enemies in place.

Combustion – Fireworks launch mobs on explosion.

Siphon (Curse) – Crossbow shots deal massive damage, but cost some of your health.

Axes

Cleaving – Critical hits may inflict Darkness.

Glacial – Freeze mobs on hit.

Parasite (Curse) – Rare armor-piercing strikes that drain hunger.

Swords

Brutality – While at low health, gain Strength I.

Echo – Chance to deal a second hit instantly.

Soulbound – Pull in nearby XP and gain more of it.

Tridents

Vaulting – Launch yourself when throwing the trident.

Drain – Melee trident hits heal you.

Armor

Helmet:

Focus – Thrown tridents drag mobs toward you.

Chestplate:

Liquidation – When hit in water, gain a swimming boost.

Heliotrope – Under the open sky, gain Speed when low on health.

Leggings:

Gust – Perform up to 4 mid-air jumps.

Propel – Dash forward with a burst of speed.

Boots:

Rebound – Bounce on fall damage (sneak to cancel).

Buoyancy – Launch out of water when touching it (sneak to cancel).

Curses

Curses in Alakazam are powerful but come with a cost, designed to create high-risk, high-reward gameplay. Using them wisely can turn the tide of combat, making you far stronger than normal enchantments—if you can manage the drawbacks:

Parasite (Axe) – Armor-piercing strikes, but drains hunger. Great for breaking through heavily armored enemies.

Siphon (Crossbow) – Devastating ranged damage at the cost of some of your own health. Perfect for finishing off tough targets quickly.
