    About

    Penchant reworks Minecraft enchanting so enchantments begin at level one and gain levels through use: actions that would normally wear down an item, such as mining or attacking, build progress, while armor gains progress when it takes damage. A progress bar tracks each enchantment’s advancement, and filling it raises the enchantment by one level until it reaches its maximum. Its optional Table Rework lets players choose individual enchantments for an XP and lapis cost, with nearby bookshelves determining which enchantments are available; placing enchanted books on shelves can unlock additional options. With a grindstone within bookshelf range, players can strip enchantments from equipment onto books, making enchanted loot a way to discover otherwise unavailable enchantments. Bookshelves can include chiseled bookshelves and lecterns according to how many books they hold, and the valid shelf area is expanded around the enchanting table. Other optional modules reshape enchantment durability and acquisition: Durability Rework removes Mending and extends Unbreaking through five levels, while Loot Rework sorts enchantments into rarity groups and places them in different sources such as tables, trades, mob equipment, and structure loot. For example, basic enchantments such as Efficiency, Protection, Sharpness, and Unbreaking are common, while specialized enchantments such as Aqua Affinity, Feather Falling, and Looting are uncommon; rarer enchantments include Frost Walker from igloos, Silk Touch from mineshafts or dungeons, and Multishot from pillager outposts. Additional modules can prevent applying enchanted books in anvils and guarantee drops of enchanted mob equipment, while datapacks let each world enable or disable modules and customize enchantment definitions. Most modded enchantments should work with the leveling system, and the Loot Rework already categorizes enchantments from Veinminer Enchantment, Enderscape, and Farmer’s Delight.

    Security

    No harmful code found

    We checked its files and read their code, without running it.

    What it can do on your computer

    Connects to the internet
    It has code that can go online, for example to check for updates, load skins or send crash reports. Found in kaleido-config, a library it includes. See Privacy

    Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.

    How we checked · All 6 latest files checked, last on 23 Oct 2026
    • FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.
      6 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. All 6 are for recent versions. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases
    • Their codeWe turn the code of the files back into readable code and follow what it does, without running it. This shows what it downloads, what it sends and where your login goes.
      Read without running it
    • Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares that the project reads or edits things on your system outside the game. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when this applies.
      Nothing declared about your system outside the game.
    • Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.
      Folders outside the game, other programs, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.

    Privacy

    We found nothing it sends

    We read its code without running it: it contacts no web address while you play.

    Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.

    How we checked · All 6 files read
    • Files readWe read the code without running it. We list each web address the code contacts while you play, and what it sends. Code that is never used is left out.
      The code of all 6 files, for recent Minecraft versions. See each file in Releases
    • Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares crash reports, usage data and advertisements. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a project collects data on its users or shows advertisements.
      Nothing declared about crash reports, usage data or advertisements.

    AI

    No sign so far that AI was used to make it

    We looked for AI tools in its texts, files and images and found none.

    We have not read its code history yet.

    No sign of AI in the game

    We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.

    Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
