[MCPE-35406] Librarians don't offer enchanted books for tridents

It seems that the enchanted books offered by librarian villagers never include the new enchantments for tridents: Loyalty, Channeling, Riptide, Impaling.

I have spawned approximately a hundred of librarians to check and never got such a trade.

I have tried this as well, on the latest version on bedrock on iOS and can verify the same results. No trades for trident enchantment books are offered!

David Gee 2018-08-14T18:25:51Z

Any additional tests done/people had this issue?

Same issue experienced by other Bedrock player(s) in case it can help for the Confirmation status:

This is indeed a code bug that's still in 1.8, and I've opened an internal tracking bug

CompactVoid 2019-02-08T18:18:48Z

Tested in beta 1.10.0.3 and the issue is still there. Librarians offer all enchanted books including more recent enchantments for crossbow like Multishot or Piercing but still no enchanted book for trident like Loyalty, Channeling, Riptide, Impaling.

Tested in 1.10 official release and still not fixed

Matthew Wiens 2019-06-15T03:28:10Z

Still not fixed in 1.11 Village and Pillage update.

Roshner Jake 2019-07-28T16:35:27Z

Still not fixed in update 1.12 too. I made a trading hall in our realm so me and my pals can have easy access to all the enchantments. Throughout the process of getting all the books, I noticed that I wasn't getting any trident enchantments. Glad to know I'm not the only one having this problem.

Levi Redding 2019-09-29T18:37:54Z

I can confirm this still exists... Have been making a trading hall and searching for hours to no luck finding a channeling or loyalty or riptide librarian... Please fix

Bilal Naeem 2019-10-08T15:00:30Z

Confirmed for 1.12 W10.

Matthias Verlinden 2019-10-08T16:27:02Z

I never saw villagers without this bug so I think I can confirm. Since the Village and Pillage update on Xbox One and iPad.

Levi Redding 2019-10-08T21:11:43Z

Yeah, this bug is annoying if you want to make a complete trading hall

Niklas Mühlematter 2019-10-25T08:21:23Z

This is still at large. So far the only reliable source to the Trident enchantments is the Enchanting Table.
Another source might be fishing? Not sure as I have yet to confirm that.
But one thing's for sure, the villager librarians cannot obtain these.

Logan Goff 2020-01-06T06:53:53Z

I have just attempted to do this in 1.14 the buzzy bees update with no success still no Trident enchantments from Villagers went through at least 1000 looking for 1.

Dave Fitts 2020-01-16T16:23:58Z

For sure still an issue. I just built a large trading hall and have cycled through at least 1000 trades. No trident books. Please fix

Wesley J Gergely 2020-01-18T10:55:03Z

I built a villager trading hall designed with rooms for librarians with every enchantment. After securing a librarian for every other book I can confirm that at no time have I seen a single trident enchantment book for sale from any of the hundreds (thousands?) Of librarians I rolled trades for. The wiki says these should be available from villager trades. If that is not the intended mechanic, perhaps the wiki should be updated?

Ben 2020-02-07T07:20:36Z

Same here.

V.1.14.20

Trading hall, 17 librarians, each being rolled at least 20-25 times to get the best trades. No trident related enchantments.

The only source of these apart of the enchantment table is fishing.

Max Silva 2020-04-01T00:15:02Z

Me and my friend are making a villager trading hall an have over 40 Librarians. We haven't gotten a single trident book of any level, which sucks. Please fix this! It's been two years.

Joshua DeNoyer 2020-04-02T18:49:56Z

1.14.30 - have spent 4 days building a trading hall and have not found a single Trident enchantment villager.

Christian Kauffman 2020-04-02T19:48:36Z

Can i get a mod to say whether this is intended or not?

[Mod] OcelotOnesie 2020-04-02T19:57:38Z

This bug is fixed in the latest beta version, and the fix will be included in a future update when that is ready for full release (no specific date can be given).

Joshua DeNoyer 2020-04-02T21:37:55Z

Great to hear

Levi Redding 2020-04-03T01:24:24Z

Awesome thanks for letting us know... Now to get new ~~prisoners~~

Lisa Wexler 2020-06-16T23:16:29Z

I have every single book except the trident enchants as well I have been through about 250 villagers in creative they are the only books I do not have bedrock

Dave Fritz 2020-06-17T01:57:45Z

This appears to be fixed in the betas, so it will likely work in the next full release. However, I don't think I've seen any villagers selling the Soul Speed enchantment, but that might be intentional.

Joshua DeNoyer 2020-06-17T03:30:15Z

Soul Speed can only be acquired through bartering with piglins or found in Bastions chest I believe.
