Aqua affinity is a Minecraft enchantment that increases a player’s mining speed underwater. The enchantment can be applied to a player's helmet. Players can mine blocks underwater faster using the aqua infinity enchantment.
How do I obtain aqua affinity?
You can obtain aqua affinity by using an enchantment book and an anvil or an enchanting table. There is only one level of aqua affinity, simply increasing your mining speed so you can mine blocks underwater faster.
Practical Usage
Oftentimes you might find yourself mining blocks underwater. In Minecraft, a player's speed underwater is slower compared to the speed above. Also, due to the slow speed, the player can mine lesser number of blocks underwater. In this scenario aqua affinity is perfect as it increases your mining speed so you can spend less time mining blocks underwater. Also aqua affinity can be good for escaping from a chase underwater, especially if others don’t have the enchantment.
Compatibility
One of the cool things you can do in Minecraft is to combine different enchantments. In order to combine enchantments, they need to be compatible with each other. In other words, you'll need to make sure that the enchantments can work well with each other. Aqua affinity is compatible with almost all other helmet enchantments in Minecraft. For example, you can pair it with the Depth Strider on your boots to improve your underwater experience.
Fun Fact
Try aqua affinity with a turtle helmet. Go underwater. What do you think will happen? The turtle helmet will give you more breathing time underwater, in addition to giving you the ability to move faster. That's a perfect bonus with the enchantment!
