Aqua Affinity Enchantments Wiki Guide
This Minecraft tutorial explains the Aqua Affinity enchantment with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.
Background
The Aqua Affinity enchantment speeds up how fast you can mine blocks underwater. It basically makes mining underwater the same speed as mining on land.
You can add the Aqua Affinity enchantment to any helmet or leather cap using an enchanting table, anvil, or game command. Then you will need to wear the enchanted helmet to gain the improvement in mining speed.
The maximum level for the Aqua Affinity enchantment is Level 1. This means that you can only enchant an item with up to Aqua Affinity I, and nothing higher for this enchantment.
