Viewing Enchanted Armor Effects

When you equip enchanted armor, the mod displays the enchantment glow effect on your hand. This makes it easy to see at a glance which armor pieces have enchantments.

What Displays

The characteristic purple shimmer and particle effects of enchanted items render on your hand model. This works for:

  • Any enchanted armor piece (helmet, chestplate, leggings, boots)
  • Multiple enchantments on the same piece
  • Armor with curse enchantments

Performance Consideration

If you're wearing heavily enchanted gear, the visual effects on your hand may be more noticeable than in your inventory. This is intentional—it gives you clear feedback about your equipment's magical properties.

The glow effect updates in real-time, so if you add or remove enchantments through an anvil or enchanting table, the hand display updates immediately when you re-equip the armor.
