Smite is good for single player, as most hostile mobs are undead. Sharpness is good for multiplayer, as it’s the only enchantment that increases damage against players, which are the biggest threat.

[bartoszszmig]

Many people after this film:

Singleplayer: smite V
Multiplayer: Sharpness V

[terenceteggin]

Ro11en: talks about sweeping edge
Bedrock players: leaves

[nuudl]

smite can also be useful if ur wither skull grinding

[earlierwindow]

I always put smite on my sword and sharpness on my axe because endermen take more damage from sharpness and I always put fire aspect on my sword and if I put sharpness and fire aspect on my sword the enderman will be teleporting everywhere

Knockback does a very important thing that I enjoy: It lets you pick your battles.

If you don't want to fight that creeper today? Smack it and it's about 10 blocks away again and you have more time to run.

"please use a grindstone. Don't waste swords"
Me: *laughs in 1 emerald for a diamond sword*

Also, sorry for double commenting but this needs to be said: You love knockback, fire aspect, and sweeping edge, the 3 most controversial enchantments. But you don't like looting? Everything else in this video is based on a PvPers standpoint, but your only argument against looting is that your inventory will become cluttered. At the point in survival that you have a maxed-out netherite sword, you would most likely have auto farms and not kill hundreds of mobs every night for xp lol. Looting is one of the best enchantments for pretty much everything, and its not like its gonna make your opponents drop more stuff that will fill up your inventory in pvp. Sorry, other than that the video was pretty much fine lol

I would reccommand to ALWAYS use looting 3 on ur sword it's a very good enchant the getting ur inventory blocked thing isn't too nesscary to consider since it isn't too much.

[ninjahunterx]

Damn, I loved all the explanation about the enchantments. I was wandering if smite only worked against Zombies.

If you don't want to use knockback, you can use speed 2 which will also give you advantage for combo in netherite fights

[legoman]

Do you think if the sword was being used in a single-player world (no pvp), smite would be the better option?

[flatbread]

I’ve recently started carrying two swords, one maxed without kb and one with kb and any other enchantments that come with it. My play style is crit chaining my opponents and kb against running opponents pisses me off, but if I need space, I’ll switch to kb and give it one or two sprint hits. I also always value looting more than most enchants because it’s easier/less annoying to clear my inventory or crap than grinding for the mob drop I want without it.

Knockback is good with fire aspect it knocks the player back while doing damage to them giving you time to charge up and heal

[arielgalles]

I find knockback 2 especially useful for grinding mobs like creepers or wither skeletons where you _really_ don't want to get hit. Especially in the case of the creeper where you loose the loot after it explodes. Also 1.9 combat means that you can't spam, so knockback gives that quick breather so you can hit again when it's closer.

3:08 for those who brew potions, then it's most likely we look for spider eyes, because of invis, or instant damage

[clarioneversole]

Something to note is that if you use a grindstone to remove all the enchantments from an item it resets the anvil edits back to zero, so you can buy cheap enchanted diamond gear from cured zombified villager Armorers, Toolsmiths, and Weaponsmiths; and if the enchantments from the villagers or enchantment table end up being crap or you mess up the anvil use order to make something too expensive to upgrade you can always just start over without wasting your items.

[gibbous_silver]

I’m putting smite on my sword because I don’t fight people

[wyattb]

Great video. You are underrated. I can tell that you will be successful in the future. Keep up the good work! :D

[randomasian]

Smite on a sword is very handy because it helps you one shot every day mobs you face
