Anemos

Maximum level	I
Slots	Main hand
Applies to	Swords; sticks; maces
Resource location	matcha:anemos
Defined in	anemos.json

Anemos is an enchantment added by Matcha Flavoured that makes a sword fire a wind charge with every hit.

Obtaining

• Prayer of Aeolus, a crafted blessing. It stores Anemos directly, so it can be applied to copper swords. Until 1.12.7-beta the prayer also gave Wind Burst I.
• Iron swords in the tower and barracks chests of the Abbey come with Anemos.

Anemos has a maximum level of I and cannot appear on random enchanted books.

Usage

Anemos can be applied to any sword (the #minecraft:swords tag), to sticks and, since 1.12.8-beta, to maces, through the pack's #matcha:enchantable/anemos tag. Its anvil cost multiplier is 0.

Behavior

When the wielder hits a mob, the enchantment runs a function that summons a wind charge in front of the player's eyes (0.75 blocks ahead) and launches it in the direction the player is looking at 2.5 blocks per tick. The same function is also attached to the enchantment's hit_block effect.

After each wind charge, Anemos has a cooldown of 10 ticks (0.5 seconds), the same as throwing a wind charge; hits during the cooldown fire nothing. The wind charge is owned by the player, so kills with it are credited to the player, and Abbey advancements that check for the player's wind charges detect it.

History

1.10	Can no longer be applied to maces. The wind charge is now owned by the enchanted player, so kills with it count.
1.12.1-alpha	Now affects only the wielder in multiplayer.
1.12.2	Moved from the main to the matcha namespace. Items with the old enchantment are converted when held. The Prayer of Aeolus still gave the old enchantment.
1.12.3	The Prayer of Aeolus stores Anemos directly, so it can be applied to copper swords.
1.12.6-alpha	Can now be applied to golden swords.
1.12.8-beta October 23, 2026	Can be applied to maces again. The Prayer of Aeolus no longer also gives Wind Burst I.
