Here we provide a list of all the possible sword enchants, what they do, and what they're exclusive with
Sharpness increases the overall melee damage of a sword. It is the most versatile damage enchantment for combat. Mutually exclusive with Bane of Arthropods and Smite
Fire Aspect sets enemies on fire when you hit them with your sword. The burning effect deals additional damage over time.
Unbreaking gives your armour a chance not to lose durability when it takes damage. This significantly increases the lifespan of enchanted gear.
Looting increases the number of items dropped by mobs when they die. It also improves the chances of rare drops.
Mending repairs your armour using the experience you collect. Instead of gaining XP, it is used to restore item durability.
Sweeping Edge increases the damage dealt by sweeping attacks. This allows you to damage multiple nearby enemies more effectively.
Knockback pushes enemies further away when they are struck. This can help create space during combat.
Bane of Arthropods increases damage against spiders, cave spiders, silverfish, and endermites. It also briefly slows these mobs when hit. Mutually exclusive with Sharpness and Smite
Smite increases damage dealt to undead mobs like zombies, skeletons, and the Wither. It is particularly useful in areas with many undead enemies. Mutually exclusive with Sharpness and Bane of Arthropods
Curse of Vanishing causes an item to disappear when the player dies. This prevents it from being recovered after death.
