Ancient Enchantments (Rarer and more Powerful Enchantments)

Ancient Enchantments would be special compared to regular Enchantments since they'd be more powerful than regular ones and difficult to come across! You can't get these Enchantments in the form of a Book, from fishing or even from trading, ONLY from loot. When hovering over the item, it would have a Gold-ish glow instead of Purple. Ancient Enchants cannot be combined in an Anvil to enhance the Enchantment level.
When a Mob spawns with a weapon or a Loot Chest has an item, Enchanted items have a 10% chance of being Ancient.

[Empowering Strike]: This Enchantment is for Tridents, when you charge a trident while in air, you lose almost all of your Gravity so you hover there and then when you fire, the Trident flies much further and causes an explosion equal to a Fireball, meanwhile you're knocked back away from your position and regaining your Gravity.

[Projectile Preservation (Levels I-III)]: This Enchantment is for Swords, if a blast is fired at you, your sword can absorb/preserve the blast and after a second (with the cooldown) be able to fire it again (just using left click while shifting), the sword would have it as in an inventory and look slightly different, kinda like the new Crossbows. Levels 2 or higher give a 25% chance each of keeping it, possibly allowing multiple blasts to be shot out of your sword.

If you have any more suggestions, keep in mind that they should be for items which are dropped from spawned mobs or found in chests in structures :D

    Seems like a good idea for an Ancient Enchantment there, einav, would probably need to raid End Cities to even have a Chance of finding a Diamond Pickaxe which has the Enchantment but likely worth it!

    I think Dinnerbone has talked about having rarer or more powerful tools/enchantments in the game before, so there's a possibility something like this could happen!

    I like your idea but I'd make it so that either you can get it from a book but its an extremely low chance, or you can only get the enchantments on diamond tools. I also have another enchantment idea, "Repairing" basically this will repair any armor/tools in your inventory as long as you have the materials to make it. Say you're wearing diamond boots with this enchantment, when their durability drops below a certain amount the tool will automatically repair itself as long as you have diamonds in your inventory

    This is an awesome idea! I’d totally just fill up my inventory with tools then enchant them all and see how many I got haha. But seriously, I’d love to see this added!

    Perhaps an enchantment that allows cuts to be more often like a .4 second less on the cool down

    I really like your idea! Perhaps the ancient enchantments could function more like projectile preservation where they can absorb different things, but they could perhaps be augmented by the object absorbed.

    For example, absorbing a fire charge or flaming arrow could provide a more powerful fire aspect, and when using a grindstone you remove the augmentation from the item, allowing for a new augmentation to be applied. An aditional projectile augmentation could be ender pearls allowing you to teleport to a block within range (standard PC range, not mobile's expanded range) for easy escape during combat.

    Within this idea, brushes could have a unique enchantment allowing for other items to be augmented by items brushed up. The ability to augment an item could be disabled by simply sneaking, and this would allow the brush to retrive items normaly. The brush wouldn't give an augmentation for sniffer eggs, pottery shards, and other unique items found through archeology. For example, a candle could cause pickaxes to become illuminated, emmiting perhaps light level 3. TNT could cause mob death to damage other mobs, similar to how TNT and creepers only harm entities when in water and don't damage blocks.

    I think you should also have a night vision enchantment as a powerful enchantment so you can see in caves and underwater without torches or a potion. It would be a helmet enchantment and you would only be able to get them in chests from mines, mob spawners, or fishing.
