How to Use Feather Falling

Survive Falling from Heights

Adventurous players will want to get the Feather Falling enchantment since it greatly increases your fall damage resistance.

This is especially helpful when traversing mountainous biomes with high altitudes, due to the danger of accidentally falling from a great height. It also provides a quick form of travel since you can just jump off a height if you don't want to spend some time hopping down blocks.
