Playing on fabric 1.21.1, when enchanting, the enchanting table seems to assign armor items the same primary enchantment over and over again, while tools are able to get different primary enchantments.

for example using a custom, replace: true, in_enchanting_table.json in data\minecraft\tags\enchantment with only vaulting enabled, results in the enchanting table having valid enchantments for leggins:

{
"replace": true,
"values": [
"enchiridion:vaulting"
]
}

however if you edit it to be:

{
"replace": true,
"values": [
"enchiridion:circuit"
]
}
and try to enchant leggins in the table, the enchanting table doesnt even come up with any possible enchantments to give to the leggins.

for example using a custom, replace: true, in_enchanting_table.json in data\minecraft\tags\enchantment with only vaulting enabled, results in the enchanting table having valid enchantments for leggins: { "replace": true, "values": [ "enchiridion:vaulting" ] } however if you edit it to be: { "replace": true, "values": [ "enchiridion:circuit" ] } and try to enchant leggins in the table, the enchanting table doesnt even come up with any possible enchantments to give to the leggins.

Please do not use "replace": true outside of testing. This will remove every enchantment from the collection other than the ones you specify.

I think this could be an issue with Circuit for some reason, zero clue what could be going on here.

I am going to investigate what's exactly going on here at some point.

The issue with Chestplates is that Thorns is its only enchantment atm. Leggings should have Circuit or Vaulting, and Boots only have Depth Strider bc I haven't made Sticky not treasure yet.

Sticky will become non-treasure in the next update. So it'll be added to the pool.

Helmets have no Primaries atm.

The mod is still largely incomplete, so some items will just have only one primary atm.

I would suggest:

Wait for updates that add more enchantments.
Install more mods that add enchantments, and categorize them via tags.
Make your own enchantments. Enchantments are data driven after all!

I can't for certain say whether 1.21.1 will get the next update, as its up to me or somebody else to backport it. It probably won't get updated after the next content update if it even does tho.

Im aiming for 26.1.x for 0.2.0, mainly bc maintaining 1.21.1 is a bit of a chore for me.
