Best Minecraft Trident Enchantments

Minecraft trident enchantments transform this unique weapon into one of the game’s most powerful and versatile tools. The Trident, which can be used in both close combat and ranged attacks, becomes like a superhero weapon when combined with the right enchantments. So, what are these enchantments and which ones should you choose? Let’s explore all the details that will turn your trident into a legendary weapon!

Trident-Specific Enchantments

These enchantments can only be used on the Trident. This makes them much more special.

Loyalty: The Returning Boomerang 🪃

This enchantment makes your thrown trident return to you. Now you can throw it at enemies without the fear of losing your valuable weapon.

LevelReturn SpeedDescription
ISlowThe trident slowly returns to you.
IIMediumThe trident returns faster.
IIIFastThe trident returns to your hand almost instantly.

User Review: “I can’t even imagine using a trident without Loyalty! It’s a lifesaver, especially when fighting underwater or against crowded mob groups. Throw, let it return, throw again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐” – SteveTR

Pro Player Review: “In PvP battles, Loyalty III is an incredible advantage for keeping your opponent under constant pressure. You can continuously wear them down with ranged attacks while they try to approach you.” – NotchFan_21

Channeling: The Power of Zeus ⚡

During stormy weather, when you hit a mob with a trident that has this enchantment, it causes lightning to strike them. This is especially critical for obtaining certain mob heads.

  • It only has 1 level.
  • Condition: The weather must be stormy and the mob must be in an open area.
  • Use Case: Used to turn Creepers into “Charged Creepers” so they can drop heads of other mobs (Zombie, Skeleton, Wither Skeleton).

User Review: “If you’re farming for wither skeleton heads, Channeling is a must! With a few charged creepers, I completed a task that would take hours in just minutes. Very satisfying! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐” – AlexCraft

Riptide: Master of Water and Air 🌊

This enchantment propels you forward along with the trident when you throw it in water or during rainy weather. It’s one of the most enjoyable ways to fly!

IMPORTANT: The Riptide enchantment cannot be used together with Loyalty and Channeling! You must choose one.

LevelLaunch DistanceDescription
IShort DistancePropels you a short distance forward.
IIMedium DistanceAllows you to fly a longer distance.
IIILong DistanceLaunches you far enough to rival the Elytra!

Pro Player Review: “If you don’t have an Elytra or your rockets run out, traveling with a Riptide III trident in rainy weather is one of the fastest transportation methods in the game. You can cross oceans and rivers at jet speed.” – CreeperSlayer

Impaling: Nightmare of the Oceans 🦑

This enchantment allows you to deal extra damage to aquatic creatures. It’s incredibly effective when clearing ocean monuments or fighting Drowned.

LevelExtra Damage (Per Level)
I – V+2.5 (❤️ 1.25)

Note: In Bedrock Edition, this enchantment deals extra damage to all mobs that are in water or under rain, while in Java Edition it only deals damage to creatures that naturally live in water (Fish, Dolphins, Guardians, Turtles, etc.).

Best Trident Enchantment Combinations

Depending on what you’ll use your trident for, two main enchantment combinations stand out:

  1. General Combat and Hunter Trident:
    • Loyalty III
    • Channeling I
    • Impaling V
    • Mending
    • Unbreaking III
    • This combination makes your trident a reliable weapon both on land and at sea.
  2. Flight and Exploration Trident:
    • Riptide III
    • Impaling V
    • Mending
    • Unbreaking III
    • This combination provides incredible mobility, especially in water-filled areas or during rainy weather.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can I apply both Loyalty and Riptide to a trident?

No, these two enchantments conflict with each other. Your trident either returns to you (Loyalty) or propels you forward (Riptide). You must choose one.

Where can I find a Trident?

Tridents rarely drop from Drowned zombies found in oceans and rivers. Only Drowned holding tridents can drop them.

Why isn’t my Channeling enchantment working?

For this enchantment to work, the weather must be thunderstorm. It doesn’t work in normal rain. Also, the mob you’re targeting must not have any blocks above it.

Does Impaling affect zombies and skeletons?

In Java Edition, it doesn’t. It only deals extra damage to aquatic creatures. However, in Bedrock Edition, if a zombie or skeleton is in water or it’s raining, the Impaling enchantment will deal extra damage to them as well.

What is the most important enchantment for a trident?

This completely depends on your playstyle. Loyalty is essential for general use, while Riptide is best for fast travel and exploration. In both cases, Mending and Unbreaking are critical for extending your trident’s lifespan.
