Helmet Snatch
What Helmet Snatch does
Chance to replace your opponents helmet to a pumpkin for a short time.
It triggers on attack and can be applied to all swords and all axes. 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 Scare in older guides; in game it reads Helmet Snatch.
Effects per level
| Level | Chance | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1.8% | pumpkin 40 on the victim, play sound outloud BLOCK_ANVIL_LAND |
| 2 | 3.6% | pumpkin 40 on the victim, play sound outloud BLOCK_ANVIL_LAND |
| 3 | 4.4% | pumpkin 60 on the victim, play sound outloud BLOCK_ANVIL_LAND |
| 4 | 5.2% | pumpkin 60 on the victim, play sound outloud BLOCK_ANVIL_LAND |
| 5 | 6% | pumpkin 80 on the victim, play sound outloud BLOCK_ANVIL_LAND |
When it fires
Helmet Snatch only checks when you land a melee hit on a player. Outside that moment the enchant is inert, so it is worth matching it to how you actually play.
Other Cosmic enchants that fire on the same trigger: Disarm, Disarm, Inferno Aura, Stormstrike, Twinge, Void Strike. Stacking several of these on one item means more rolls in the same moment rather than coverage of new situations.

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.
