Obtaining and Using the Illager's Bane Enchantment

The data pack introduces Illager's Bane, a specialized weapon enchantment designed specifically for tackling dense Illager structures.

How the Enchantment Works

Illager's Bane increases the melee damage your weapon deals against several specific hostile mob types found within and around the manor:

• Illagers (including Vindicators, Pillagers, and Evokers)
• Ravagers
• Vexes
• Witches

The enchantment has a maximum power of Level 5. Keep in mind that Illager's Bane shares the same restriction category as vanilla primary damage enhancements: it is mutually incompatible with Sharpness, Smite, and Bane of Arthropods. You cannot apply Illager's Bane to a weapon that already possesses any of those three enchantments.

Finding Illager's Bane

Illager's Bane is obtained primarily by raiding the Illager Manor itself:

1. Search the chests located in the upper attic variants, secret rooms, and basement storage chambers.

2. Inspect all Chiseled Bookshelves scattered across the manor's library rooms and hidden studies, as they can hold pre-enchanted books.

3. Take any enchanted books you find to an anvil to apply Illager's Bane onto your chosen weapon before clearing out the remaining wings of the structure.
