New Enchantment - Mount Speed

Β 

🧭 Overview

Introduce a new enchantment called Mount Speed that can be applied to saddles or mob harnesses. This enchantment increases the travel speed of any ridable mob, making exploration faster, smoother, and more engaging while maintaining gameplay balance.

βš™οΈ How It Works

  • Obtainable through Enchantment Tables, Anvils, or Enchanted Books.

  • Applicable to saddles (and potentially future harness items).

  • Each level provides a modest speed boost:

    • Mount Speed I: +10% speed

    • Mount Speed II: +20% speed

    • Mount Speed III: +30% speed

  • Works with all ridable mobs (🐎 horses, πŸͺ camels, 🐷 pigs, 🦩 striders, etc.).

  • Higher levels could slightly reduce steering precision or increase saddle wear for balance.

🌍 Why This Would Improve Minecraft

  • Adds meaningful progression for players who enjoy exploration and adventure.

  • Gives saddles and mounts greater long-term value.

  • Fits naturally into Minecraft’s existing enchantment system and aesthetic.

  • Encourages creative use of different ridable mobs beyond horses.

πŸ’‘ Optional Enhancements

  • Add subtle visual effects (wind trails or dust) at max velocity.

  • Could add to boats for increased speed over water.

βœ… Summary

Mount Speed would make travel in Minecraft feel more dynamic and rewarding β€” adding depth to mount-based gameplay without breaking the game’s simplicity or balance.

    This is a great and inventive way to encourage players to travel throughout the world...especially those that may not enjoy the elytra (or have one yet).

    Ok I like it, but either don’t call it velocity or acceleration or make it that it ramps up the speed over time. Velocity/acceleration implies going faster over time.
