Better Tridents

You didn’t know your trident could do that! A crafting recipe, better loyalty, and more!

Better Tridents brings some small, but much need improvements to tridents. Especially the loyalty enchantment is much more useful, and there's even a crafting recipe for tridents themselves!

▶️ Tridents finally have a crafting recipe! All three elder guardian in an ocean monument will each drop a new trident fragment item. Combine those three with a few prismarine shards, and there's your brand new trident!

▶️ Use a few prismarine shards to repair your trident in an anvil when it is about to run out of durability.

▶️ Tridents always return to the slot they are thrown from when picked up again.

▶️ When enchanted with loyalty, tridents accidentally thrown into the void return instead of being deleted from your world.

▶️ Any loot dropped by mobs including items and experience points will come flying at you together with any loyalty enchanted trident.

▶️ Impaling works as it does on Bedrock Edition: Any mob in contact with water or rain will receive increased damage, not just selected types of aquatic mobs.

🌟 Zero_DSRS_VX for the idea of repairing tridents in an anvil using prismarien shards from their Repairable Tridents mod.
