- 30+ unique enchantments for every major equipment type.
- Fully configurable through separate client and server configuration files.

Vanilla Enchantment Overrides
Ultimate Enchants can optionally improve several vanilla enchantments by expanding their compatibility and functionality.
Expanded Compatibility
Many vanilla enchantments can be applied to additional equipment. For example:
- Protection enchantments can be applied to Horse Armor.
- Many sword-exclusive enchantments can also be used on Axes.
Preservation (Optional Mending Replacement)
When enabled, Mending is replaced with Preservation.
Instead of repairing items automatically with experience, items can be repaired indefinitely in an Anvil without increasing repair costs. This removes the anvil penalty while keeping item maintenance balanced through manual repairs.
Enhanced Frost Walker
When enabled, Frost Walker also functions on Horse Armor.
An optional configuration allows Frost Walker to solidify lava into Glossed Magma, allowing both players and horses to safely cross lava lakes.
Configuration
- Client:
config/ultimateenchants-client.toml - Server:
config/ultimateenchants-server.toml
Every enchantment and override can be individually configured, making Ultimate Enchants suitable for vanilla-style survival, multiplayer servers, and large modpacks alike.
