Arcane Additions

A growing, vanilla-friendly datapack adding new enchantments and content to Minecraft.

Enchantments

| Enchantment | Slot(s) | Applies To | Effect |
| — | — | — | — |
| Bulwark | Offhand | Shields | +2 / +4 / +6 armor (levels I–III) |
| Fortify | Chestplate | Chest armor | +2 / +4 / +6 armor (levels I–III) |
| Swift Harness | Any | Harnesses (all colors) | +0.01 / +0.02 / +0.03 flying speed (levels I–III) |
| Ensnare | Mainhand | Pickaxes | Pick up monster spawners as items (level I) |

All enchantments are obtainable through the enchanting table or anvil — no commands required.

Ensnare — pick up monster spawners

Break a monster spawner with a pickaxe enchanted with Ensnare and it drops as an item — fully preserving the spawner’s mob type and configuration (spawn delay, spawn count, player range, and more). Place it back down anywhere to restore a working spawner with the exact same setup.

• Breaking a spawner with Silk Touch alone behaves just like vanilla: no special drop, just XP.
• Breaking an empty spawner (no mob configured) with Ensnare also drops only XP, since there’s nothing to preserve.
• The dropped item is renamed and labeled to show which mob it contains.

What’s Next

Arcane Additions is actively developed — more enchantments and content are planned beyond what’s listed here.
