If you throw your Loyalty Trident into the void, it will effectively be destroyed and never return to you in Java Edition, as there are no blocks or entities for it to hit, whereas in Bedrock Edition, the trident will return after traveling around 15 blocks in the void. The Loyalty enchantment does not guarantee the trident’s return if it is thrown into the void, as the void can cause entities to be killed, including the trident, even with the Loyalty enchantment.
General Information
To provide more insight into the behavior of tridents and their enchantments, we have compiled a list of frequently asked questions.
FAQs
1. Can you lose your trident in the void?
The trident only comes back after it collides with something, so you’ll lose it forever if you throw it into the void. It turns into an entity when thrown, and the void just kills entities.
2. Can you lose a trident with loyalty 3 in the void?
If the player throws a trident into the void, it may completely disappear, even when it is enchanted with Loyalty.
3. How do you get trident back after throwing?
Either way, if you head on over to the landing site, you can retrieve any trident you’ve thrown. Tridents thrown by drowned can’t be retrieved, just like arrows shot by skeletons.
4. What happens if you throw a loyalty trident into lava?
Tridents (if enchanted with Loyalty), can take fire damage but still return to the player if thrown in lava.
5. Can riptide and loyalty go together?
Incompatibilities. Since a Riptide trident never leaves the player’s hand when used, Loyalty cannot be used, and because of that, the two enchantments can’t be combined.
6. Is Riptide trident better than loyalty?
This makes Riptide a somewhat situational enchantment, leaving Loyalty as a much more reliable option. Compared to Riptide, Loyalty is also more helpful at keeping the player out of immediate danger.
7. Will a loyalty trident return from the void?
In Java Edition, throwing a trident into the void effectively destroys the trident; it never returns because there are no blocks or entities for it to hit.

10. How rare is a trident with looting 3?
Of these, they have an 8.5% chance to drop their trident when killed by a player. The chance is increased by 1% for each level of looting up to a max of 11.5% with Looting III.
11. What is Max Loyalty trident?
Loyalty is an enchantment that causes a thrown item to return to the player’s hand. The level of enchantment, in this case III, causes the item to return faster.
12. What is the highest loyalty on trident?
The maximum level for the Loyalty enchantment is Level 3. This means that you can enchant a trident with up to Loyalty III.
13. What is a maxed out riptide trident?
The maximum level for the Riptide enchantment is Level 3. This means that you can enchant a trident with up to Riptide III.
14. Do Tridents lose durability with Riptide?
When using a trident with Riptide in water or rain to travel and not hitting a mob, there is no loss of durability.
15. Will Loyalty 3 trident always come back?
With Loyalty, a trident will always return to the player’s hands. On the off chance that they die before the trident returns, the item will drop and can eventually despawn. Loyalty I, II and III all do the same thing, but to a slower degree. Loyalty I is the slowest and Loyalty III is the fastest.
