Description
Disenchanting Forge
This mod adds a Disenchanter block that will let you disenchant enchanted items and transfer their enchantments onto books. The Disenchanter will remove the first enchantment from the item and transfer it onto a book. If you shift-click the output book, the Disenchanter will try to transfer all enchantments onto all available books, assuming you have enough experience and books to cover the cost. You can use the random_enchantment config to pull a specific enchantment off an item by placing and re-placing it in the input slot until the desired enchanted book appears in the output. Actually choosing the enchantment is on the roadmap.
Fabric version: Disenchanting Fabric
How to Use
- Put an enchanted item into the left slot
