Description

General enchantment changes:

  • All enchantments have one level, and each item can only have one enchantment. Individual enchantments are generally more powerful and existing ones have been reworked to match this.
  • All enchantments which originally had levels will function as if they were at their maximum level.
  • Enchanted armor, tools, and weapons gain increased protection, efficiency, and durability bonuses respectively. The amount scales with item enchantability.

Enchanting Table changes:

  • The three enchantments generated by the table are unique.
  • Experience and Lapis costs are kept at a constant value regardless of slot.
  • Bookshelves provide a 1% chance to consume no experience or lapis when enchanting.

Anvil changes:

  • Repairing unenchanted items does not cost any experience.
  • The experience cost of repairing enchanted items are fixed and do not increase with subsequent repairs.

Enchantments:

Configuration:

  • Enchantments can be changed with datapacks. It is possible to revert changes made to vanilla enchantments in this manner.
  • This mod contains some tags which can be modified with datapacks.
  • Anvil and enchantment costs can be changed in the config file.
  • There is an experimental config option which disables the core enchantment and anvil changes for extended customization. Intended for datapack developers who know what they are doing.

Tags:

  • damage_tempered: Controls which blocks cost durability when harvested with a tool enchanted with Tempering, provided it is the correct tool.
  • tool_efficiency_bonus: Controls which items gain a mining speed (efficiency) bonus when enchanted.
  • weapon_durability_bonus: Controls which items gain a durability (unbreaking) bonus when enchanted.
  • removed_enchantments: Controls which enchantments are disabled.
  • exclusive_set/fishing: Controls fishing rod enchantment exclusivity. Has no effect unless the OVERHAUL_ENCHANTMENTS config setting is disabled.
  • exclusive_set/leggings: Controls legging enchantment exclusivity. Has no effect unless the OVERHAUL_ENCHANTMENTS config setting is disabled.
  • enchantable/excavate: Items in this tag are compatible with the Excavate enchantment.

Disclaimers:

  • This mod is in a beta state. Expect large changes over an extended period of time.
  • This mod won't be backported. It would require a full rewrite of everything from scratch due to large changes in the enchantment system.
  • This mod makes a number of invasive changes to enchantment code in order to function. If you use this with Apotheosis (which makes even more invasive changes) or Enchancement there will be issues.
