Minecraft:Aqua Affinity

Aqua Affinity is an Minecraft:enchantment applied to Minecraft:helmets that removes the mining speed reduction that occurs when underwater.

Obtaining

Aqua Affinity can be obtained from Minecraft:enchanting tables, drops from mobs that have spawned in a Minecraft:raid,Template:Only books obtained by Minecraft:fishing, librarian Minecraft:villagers, and in the following structure loot chests: Minecraft:desert pyramids, Minecraft:strongholds, Minecraft:ocean ruins, Minecraft:ancient cities, Minecraft:mansions, Minecraft:pillager outposts, Minecraft:mineshafts, Minecraft:monster rooms, Minecraft:jungle pyramids, and from vaults in Minecraft:trial chambers.

Usage

Usually when the player's head is underwater, mining blocks takes 5 times as long as mining while out of water. Wearing armor with Aqua Affinity grants 400% Minecraft:submerged mining speed, negating this penalty.

The related but distinct speed decrease for mining while floating also results in a 5 times decrease in mining speed. The penalty for floating is not affected by Aqua Affinity. Mining without Aqua Affinity while underwater and floating takes 25 times as long as mining while out of water and standing on the ground.

Although unobtainable in Survival mode, Template:In levels higher than 1 increase the submerged mining speed by 400% per level, while Template:In all levels have the same effect.
