\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the select few enchantments that will be most beneficial in general when equipped with your swords.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sharpness\"><\/span>Sharpness<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This enchantment increases the amount of damage dealt by the sword. It is one of the most popular enchantments for swords because it makes them more effective at killing mobs and players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Looting\"><\/span>Looting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This enchantment increases the amount of loot that mobs drop when killed with the sword. This can be useful for farming resources or for getting rare drops from mobs allowing you to gather resources quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Knockback\"><\/span>Knockback<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This enchantment increases the knockback dealt by the sword. This can be useful for keeping enemies at bay or for getting hard-to-reach mobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mending\"><\/span>Mending<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to be able to repair your sword, this enchantment is a must. Mending allows you to fix up your sword by collecting XP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fire_Aspect\"><\/span>Fire Aspect<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This enchantment causes the sword to set mobs on fire when hit. This not only deals extra damage over time, but it also makes it easier to kill mobs that would otherwise be difficult to hit, such as endermites and blaze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Unbreaking\"><\/span>Unbreaking<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, nobody wants a glass cannon or sword. We want a sword that can hit like a truck but can withstand the recoil as well. This enchantment increases the durability of the sword, making it less likely to break.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Smite\"><\/span>Smite<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This enchantment increases the amount of damage dealt to undead mobs, such as zombies and skeletons. This is a great enchantment to have if you&#8217;re going to be fighting a lot of these types of mobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sweeping_Edge\"><\/span>Sweeping Edge<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This enchantment will let your sword deal more damage every time you sweep attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_many_enchantments_can_a_sword_have\"><\/span>How many enchantments can a sword have?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Minecraft, a sword can have up to three enchantments applied to it at the same time when using an anvil. However, when using the enchanting table or the grindstone, you can only enchant an item with one enchantment at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_add_7_enchantments_to_a_sword\"><\/span>How to add 7 enchantments to a sword?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s not possible to apply 7 enchantments to a sword in Minecraft using the standard enchanting method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_best_possible_sword_you_can_get_in_Minecraft\"><\/span>What is the best possible sword you can get in Minecraft?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The best possible sword in Minecraft is the Diamond Sword. It has the highest durability and deals the most damage to mobs and players. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It can be crafted using two diamonds and one stick, but with the best sword enchantments in Minecraft, you can make it even more powerful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_you_enchant_a_perfect_Minecraft_sword\"><\/span>How do you enchant a perfect Minecraft sword?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.gamegrinds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Best-Sword-Enchantments-in-Minecraft-1-1024x576.jpg?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6170\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.gamegrinds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Best-Sword-Enchantments-in-Minecraft-1-1024x576.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.gamegrinds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Best-Sword-Enchantments-in-Minecraft-1-300x169.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/cdn.gamegrinds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Best-Sword-Enchantments-in-Minecraft-1-768x432.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/cdn.gamegrinds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Best-Sword-Enchantments-in-Minecraft-1-696x392.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/cdn.gamegrinds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Best-Sword-Enchantments-in-Minecraft-1.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/cdn.gamegrinds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Best-Sword-Enchantments-in-Minecraft-1.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;w=240&amp;ssl=1 240w, https:\/\/cdn.gamegrinds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Best-Sword-Enchantments-in-Minecraft-1.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;w=480&amp;ssl=1 480w, https:\/\/cdn.gamegrinds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Best-Sword-Enchantments-in-Minecraft-1.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;w=960&amp;ssl=1 960w, https:\/\/cdn.gamegrinds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Best-Sword-Enchantments-in-Minecraft-1.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To enchant the perfect Minecraft sword for you, you would need an enchanting table.
