Minecraft is probably the most creative game ever created; the game doesn’t put any constraints on the player’s imagination; anything you want to do, anyone you want to be, you can be in Minecraft. That’s the beauty of the game!
But there are some things in the game that are universally accepted, like building a starter house or making an enchanting table. This isn’t at all necessary to enjoy the game. If you want, you can just keep playing without being bothered by this stuff.
However, playing without any enchantments is similar to going to war without any armor on.
The armor isn’t necessary, but it will surely help you be better in the war. Similarly, enchantments aren’t needed, but they will give you an extra boost required to take on hostile creatures in Minecraft!
Sweeping edge is one such enchantment in Minecraft, and we see it has piqued your interest. Hence you come here on the internet to search for its uses and how to use it effectively. You’ve landed on the right page; in this blog, we’ll discuss the effect of sweeping edge, how to get it, and how to use it most effectively!
Sweeping Edge in Minecraft
Sweeping edge is an enchantment native to the sword weapon only, which means you won’t be able to use the enchantment on any other tool. And rightfully so, the term sweeping edge should give you a hint about what is in store for us.
Simply put, a sweeping edge increases the swipe damage done by the player’s sword. The sweep damage is only applicable in the Java edition of the game; there’s no such thing as sweep damage in Minecraft bedrock.
The sweep damage keeps on increasing. 50%, 67%, 75% for levels I, II, & III,to respectively. So furthering upon the level of the sweeping edge enchantment, the damage will also keep on increasing significantly, making it very powerful.
Also, you can mix-match this enchantment with other sword enchantments like sharpness or fire aspect.
The damage starts to rack up pretty significantly when you use the sharpness enchantment as the damage sweeping edge increase is based on the damage sharpness enchantment will be doing!
