Combat Enhanced expands combat in a meaningful way by adding a variety of new weapons and unique enchantments (some of them inspired from Minecraft Dungeons) that make every fight feel more dynamic. It also reworks zombie horses by giving them a proper purpose. With a special charm, you can summon a rideable zombie horse — the only one you’ll be able to mount. Any others spawned via spawn eggs (without the charm) won’t be rideable. Mounting a Zombie horse will give you a special effect called "Fearsome". All nearby entities will be affected with "Fear" increasing their movement speed but decreasing their attack damage and armor. All undead mobs are immune to "Fear"

On top of that, the mod introduces a brand-new ore built around life absorption. It’s designed for players who enjoy lifesteal mechanics and want a more aggressive, high-risk playstyle. Whether you're looking for stronger gear, darker themes, or fresh combat mechanics, this mod adds depth without straying from the core experience. Combat Enhanced is not only a collection of enchantments and weapons — it is a reactive combat system where armor, summons, and abilities respond to the state of battle.

Last but not least, from now on when a horse, cat or dog of yours dies, you will be affected with the "Revenge" effect that increases your movement speed and attack damage. Please report any bugs you find.

I recommend using JEI for the recipes.
