_It has always annoyed me how minecraft's curses render a piece of equipment virtually useless, and how a fair deal of the regular enchantments are often just objectively the worse option. This pack tries to add function and synergies to curses, and flesh out the existing enchantment roster in a vanilla-like way._
_All new enchantments and curses do not render any existing enchantments or vanilla features obsolete, but rather gives them more function. Most are only available through treasures and villager trading, in order to not bloat the enchanting table._
### Key features: - Curses are now varied, and function more as _devil deals too good to pass._ They do not follow the regular rules for exclusivity, and are only incompatible with their enchantment counterpart. - Full sets of some enchantments now have special bonuses: blast protection, fire protection, or consecration now grants damage immunity. Unbinding causes invisibility upon movement. - All enchantments that makes sense could be on mob armour (horse armour, wolf armour, ghast harness) are now available through the anvil. - Bane of Arthropods is now only available through villager trading.
