Minecraft Power enchantment
Power raises an arrow's base damage by 1 at level I and 0.5 more per level after that, +3 at Power V. A hit deals base damage times the arrow's speed, so a fully drawn Power V shot hits for about 15 instead of 6, plus the random critical bonus every full draw gets.

Which items take Power
Bows, and books.
None beyond the table items.
The table offers an enchantment only on its primary items; an anvil can add it to anything that can hold it. See every enchantment an item can hold in the max enchantments by item tool.
Conflicts
Nothing: Power combines with every other enchantment its item can hold.
Enchanting table odds

Power window per level
A table roll picks the highest level whose window contains the roll’s modified enchantment level. These are the registry’s min_cost and max_cost, not the level cost shown on the table.
| Level | Min | Max |
|---|---|---|
| Power I | 1 | 16 |
| Power II | 11 | 26 |
| Power III | 21 | 36 |
| Power IV | 31 | 46 |
| Power V | 41 | 56 |
Anvil cost
An anvil charges ×1 per level when Power comes from another item and ×1 per level when it comes from a book, so adding Power V from a book costs 5 levels before any prior-work penalty. Work out a full combine in the anvil cost calculator.
Command
Hold the item in your main hand and run this with cheats on. /enchant refuses an item that can’t hold Power and any level above V.
