Enchanting methods [ ]

An enchanting table surrounded past bookshelves.

At that place are four means to enchant an item in Survival style:

Through an enchanting table in exchange for feel points and lapis lazuli. Only unenchanted items may exist enchanted this style.
Through an anvil, combining an enchanted book with an detail.
Through an anvil, combining ii of the same item with different existing enchantments into a unmarried detail that has the enchantments of both.
Through a librarian villager, which may enchant books respectively for emeralds instead of lapis lazuli and experience.

A role player may as well obtain items already enchanted:

Through a villager, who may trade some enchanted items for emeralds.
Through line-fishing, which gives a chance of obtaining enchanted items.
Through a zombie, drowned, husk, piglin, skeleton, stray, wither skeleton, and zombified piglin – if they take enchanted items and the player kills them, it has an 8.5% take chances of them dropping each said item.
Through finding them in end cities and other contrasted treasure chests, such as shipwrecks, mineshafts, dungeons, desert temples, jungle temples, woodland mansions, body of water ruins, strongholds, ruined portals, and bastion remnants.
Through bartering perhaps receiving an enchanted volume or iron boots with Soul Speed(random level).
Through killing pillagers and vindicators in raids.‌^{[ Boulder Edition just ]}

Server operators and players in singleplayer worlds with cheats enabled can also enchant items using commands such as /enchant. When enchanted with the /give command, the maximum enchantment level is 255‌^{[ Java Edition but ]}. In Creative way, items tin be enchanted via an anvil and enchanted books, with no experience points required. Enchanted books are bachelor in the Creative mode inventory, with individual book displays for the highest level of each enchantment and other levels available via the "Search" tab.

Enchanting table [ ]

An particular can be enchanted past using an enchanting table and placing the item in the input slots and 1–three Lapis Lazuli in its dedicated slot. Upon placing the item, iii (pseudo)randomized options appear on the right of the GUI. The glyphs here do non affect the enchantment, but hovering over a presented enchantment shows one enchantment to exist applied (on mobile devices, the player can tap an enchantment earlier putting in the lapis lazuli or concur the enchantment before release). The merely choices bachelor have a level requirement equal to or below the player'due south current level and a lapis lazuli requirement equal to or below the number of lapis lazuli placed in the tabular array. Each choice imbues the particular with a randomized set of enchantments that are dependent on the number of experience levels required (due east.thou. a level 10 enchantment can give a pickaxe the "Efficiency II" enchantment); the actual level cost and the number of lapis lazuli required have no effect.

Although the thespian must take at to the lowest degree the level requirement to go an enchantment, the number of levels that the player is charged is the same as the lapis lazuli requirement. For example, if the tertiary enchantment listed is a level thirty-50 enchantment, the histrion must have at least thirty levels, but pay only three levels and iii lapis lazuli.

The level requirement influences the quantity, type, and level of enchantments instilled in the item, with a college experience level generally resulting in more and/or higher-level enchantments. Notwithstanding, there is a meaning random cistron, and even a level 30 enchantment (the maximum) doesn't guarantee more than than 1 enchantment, or even that enchantments are "maximum strength" — a level 30 enchantment tin can however yield Fortune Two or Efficiency 3 alone, for example. On the other paw, it is possible for multiple unlike enchantments to be given from ane utilise of the enchanting table. For example, a level 30 enchantment applied to a pickaxe may yield both Efficiency lV and Unbreaking lll.

To increment the enchantment level, bookshelves can exist placed side by side to the enchanting tabular array while keeping one block of air between them. To proceeds access to the previously mentioned level thirty enchantments, a total of xv bookshelves need to be placed around the enchanting table. See the Enchantment Mechanics page for more detailed information on this.

Enchanting a volume produces an enchanted book, which does nothing on its own, simply effectively "saves" the enchantment for later application to another item with an anvil.

Unlike with an anvil, using the enchanting table while on Creative still costs experience. However, if the histrion doesn't accept plenty feel, and so experience reduces to zero and the enchantment still works, even when using the enchanting table while already at level zero.

Affecting offered enchantments [ ]

Enchanting any item at any enchantment level changes the role player's enchantment seed, which changes the possible enchantments for every item at every enchantment level. Thus, if none of the available enchantments for a tool are desired, 1 lapis lazuli and 1 level could be spent to enchant a book or a different tool to refresh the list.

The possible enchantments depend on the player'southward enchantment seed, the particular type, and material, and the enchantment level (ane–xxx). Removing the particular and putting it back in, clicking on the item slot with a different particular, using a different item of the same type and fabric, replacing or moving the tabular array (simply keeping the aforementioned number of bookshelves), using a different table with the same number of bookshelves, or replacing or rearranging the bookshelves without changing their total number does not affect the possible enchantments.

Changing the enchantment levels offered by adding, removing, or blocking bookshelves alters the enchantments shown, only does not change possible enchantments; using another enchanting table with the previous bookshelf number still shows the previous enchantments. The enchantments for a particular enchantment level (with the same seed and item) do also differ depending on which row they announced in, simply they are not "ameliorate" or "worse" based on the row despite the different resource costs.

Anvil combinations [ ]

An anvil can be used to combine the enchantments of two items, sacrificing one of them and repairing the other. The items must exist uniform; they must either be the same type and material (such as two iron swords) or an particular and an enchanted book with an applicable enchantment (such equally a bow and an Infinity enchanted book).

Combining two enchanted items, books or 1 of each with the same enchantment at the same level produces an detail or book with the next higher level of that enchantment upwards to the maximum allowed in survival way; for example, a book with Thorns I and Unbreaking Ii combined with a book with Unbreaking 2 produces a book with Thorns I and Unbreaking Three.

To combine items, the player places the target item in the anvil'southward first slot and the sacrifice item in the 2d slot. If the combination is allowed, the resulting enchanted detail appears in the anvil's output slot and an experience level price, labeled "Enchantment Cost", appears beneath (light-green if the player has enough feel levels, red if they don't). To complete the enchanting, the player removes the enchanted detail from the anvil's output slot, and their experience level is reduced accordingly.

The experience cost depends on the enchantments, with highly enchanted items costing more than. If the target item is also being repaired, that costs more as well. The target item tin also be renamed, at additional toll. There is as well an accumulating surcharge for prior work done on anvils. In Survival mode, work that costs more than 39 levels of experience is refused although information technology may still be possible to perform the same work in steps. For example, a damaged enchanted bow may be repaired on an anvil with an ordinary bow, and and so another enchanted bow may exist used to combine enchantments with the repaired bow.

Enchanted books [ ]

Enchanted books can be fabricated by using an enchanting table to enchant a book. (They can as well exist institute in generated chests, purchased with emeralds from a villager librarian, or looted by fishing rod.) The book can receive multiple enchantments of any blazon, just only enchantments appropriate to a given item type may be applied to that particular. For example, the same book may receive Respiration and Power enchantments, just the Respiration enchantment is lost if the book is applied to annihilation only a helmet, and the Power enchantment is lost if the book is applied to anything but a bow.

Enchanted books are used on an anvil to add together enchantments to items, including other books. They tin can apply some enchantments to items that cannot be enchanted from an enchanting table, such every bit applying Thorns to boots.

In Artistic fashion, books can enchant any item with whatever enchantment, such as a stick having Knockback 2.‌^{[ JE but ]} Nonetheless, mutually-exclusive enchantments, such every bit Infinity and Mending, cannot exist practical this way or via /enchant (though are however available via /requite).

The experience costs for using books are considerably less than for combining items with similar enchantments since the books themselves cost levels to create. All the same, it's yet an actress cost, and enchanting items straight has a chance to get multiple enchantments. The advantage of books is that they can be stockpiled for use on an item of choice and let for controlled combinations. For example, a Silk Affect book can be used on an axe, pickaxe, or shovel, and the player tin decide which item receives which enchantment.

Disenchanting [ ]

The merely style to disenchant items is via the grindstone or by repairing the items via the crafting grid. Using the grindstone removes all enchantments (except Curse of Binding and Curse of Vanishing) and gives experience dorsum based on the level of the enchantment(south) and their value.

Summary of enchantments [ ]

Each enchantment in the tabular array below includes attributes that are possible for the histrion to larn legitimately in Survival mode. Other combinations are possible in creative manner or with cheats, mods, or third-party software.

Max Level: Maximum levels for enchantments vary, but the game can comprehend upward to 32-fleck integer values (−2³¹ to two³¹−1). Exceeding this value results in an overflow, and eventually resets itself to 0.
Principal Items: The items that can receive the enchantment legitimately in Survival style by using an enchanting table. Items of any cloth can exist enchanted (some more easily than others – see Enchantment mechanics).
Secondary Items: Items that, in Survival fashion, cannot receive the enchantment from an enchanting table but can from an enchanted book with an anvil.
Weight: Relative probability of the enchantment being offered.

An anvil indicates the detail cannot receive the enchantment legitimately in Survival style by using an enchanting table (an enchanting table never offers the enchantment for the particular), but can receive the enchantment by another method (for example, using an anvil to combine the item with an enchanted volume or some other enchanted particular; note the enchanting table could however employ the enchantment to the item every bit a random additional enchantment).
