How to Fight and Loot Mobs Spawning with Modded Gear

With Enchantments Encore installed, hostile mobs can naturally spawn equipped with armor and weapons imbued with the mod's 140+ new enchantments. These encounters provide greater challenge but yield valuable rewards.

Combating Enchanted Hostile Mobs

Monsters such as zombies and skeletons that spawn wearing armor or holding weapons may possess potent modded enchantments. Because their gear can grant increased durability, defensive capabilities, or higher attack strength, you should adjust your combat approach:

• Keep your distance initially and inspect the mob's equipment. Use a bow or crossbow to weaken them before closing in.
• Keep a shield equipped to block unexpected bursts of physical damage.
• Maintain a full hunger bar to ensure rapid health regeneration during extended skirmishes.

Harvesting Equipment Drops

Defeating mobs with enchanted equipment gives you a chance to obtain their gear as drops, offering an alternative route to collecting modded enchantments.

To maximize your yield, use a sword enchanted with Looting, which increases the drop chance of armor and held items. Once an enchanted piece drops, retrieve it and inspect its properties. Take damaged drops to an anvil and combine them with matching materials or items to restore their durability without losing the newly acquired modded enchantments.
