Infinity is an enchantment to bows that prevents regular arrows from being consumed when shot. One arrow is needed to use a bow enchanted with Infinity.
Usage[]
A bow enchanted with Infinity can be used to shoot unlimited arrows, as long as the player's inventory contains at least 1 arrow. Fired arrows cannot be retrieved except in Creative mode (in which they are erased instead of added to the player's inventory).
Infinity has no effect on tipped and spectral arrows; they are still consumed as usual.
A crossbow still consumes arrows if commands are used to add Infinity to it.
Incompatibilities[]
Mending and Infinity are mutually exclusive. However, if combined with commands, both enchantments function as normal.
