Minecraft Dungeons Enchantments explained

Like the vanilla Minecraft that inspired Minecraft Dungeons, enchantments upgrade your gear with magical abilities, and now play a more significant role in the fundamentals of combat. Every weapon or armor set you receives a randomized roll of passive enchantments, with up to three possible at a single time. Each slot features a trio of possible options, with the player choosing one by investing earned points.

Enchantments come split across three main categories: melee weapons, ranged weapons, and armor. The three classes each feature exclusive enchantments, changing how each item performs within its group. For example, melee upgrades alter how close-quarters weapons deal damage, while armor enchantments add passive properties around your character and their actions.
