In Minecraft, there are a large number of enchantments, and among them, there is a very special one, the channeling enchantment. Its use is limited to a single weapon, the trident, and is only useful in stormy weather conditions.
In this case, the channeling enchantment will provoke a lightning bolt at the place where we throw the trident. The attack, therefore, will be by far more lethal. In case there is a block between you and the enemy, the lightning will not reach it.
There are two methods for enchanting a trident, either with an anvil or with an enchantment table. As a previous step, it is necessary to obtain a trident, a weapon that can only be obtained very occasionally by the Drowned. Once you have the trident in your inventory, it is time to enchant it.

From an enchanting table, it is also possible to enchant a trident. If you do not have an enchanting table, you can visit this article to learn about crafting an enchanting table. On the crafting table, you must place the trident and lapis lazuli to enchant the trident. The enchantments that appear are somewhat random, so you will need some luck to get the channeling enchantment.
