Sweeping Edge
Sweeping Edge is an enchantment applied to swords that increases sweep attack damage. This only affects the damage of the sweep attack against other surrounding entities, and does not increase damage against the entity that is attacked directly. Sweeping Edge is not required to do sweep attacks, as swords have the ability innately.​[until: JE Combat Tests]
Sweeping Edge can be obtained from enchanting tables. Enchanted books with Sweeping Edge can be obtained by fishing, from monster room and ocean ruins chests, from librarian villagers, and as non-village structure loot.
Sweeping Edge increases sweep attack damage by 50%/67%/75% of the sword's attack damage for levels I/II/III. Sweeping Edge is not required to do sweep attacks, as swords have the ability innately. Sweep attacks activate when a player standing on the ground attacks while not sprinting with an attack cooldown at 84.8% or above. The sweep attack damages surrounding entities that are within a 1 by 0.25 by 1 block area of the attacked entity, dealing 1HP and knocking them back. Sweep attacks do not increase damage against the attacked entity, only the surrounding entities, and Sweeping Edge does not change this.
