What Wither Shot does

A chance to give the wither effect.

It triggers on shoot;shoot mob and can be applied to trident, bow and crossbow. The enchant goes up to level 5, and each level changes the numbers rather than the behaviour, so the table below is the whole picture. You may see it written as Perish in older guides; in game it reads Wither Shot.

When it fires

Wither Shot gets a chance to fire in more than one situation, which makes it far less situational than a single-trigger enchant:

  • When your arrow hits a player.
  • When your arrow hits a mob.

Other Epic enchants that fire on the same trigger: Cosmic Burst, Frenzy. Stacking several of these on one item means more rolls in the same moment rather than coverage of new situations.

How to Obtain

Common Crate, low-tier pouches, and the vote bonus roll (15% chance per claimed vote).

See the How to Get Enchants page for all enchant sources and the recommended apply workflow.

Applying Enchants

Use /ae in-game to access the enchant menu. Higher-tier books have lower default apply success rates. Pair the book with Magic Dust to increase the success rate, and apply a White Scroll to the target item first to protect it from breaking on a failed apply.
