📖 About:

Enchanting Infuser adds a brand new block for enchanting your equipment. Say goodbye to wasting your well earned levels on random enchants, and welcome a world of choice with fair costs for you hard-working Minecrafters.

📚 Contents:

The enchanting infuser offers everything you require for your enchanting needs: A grand selection of enchantments of course, a beautifully designed block with neat animations, an extremely useful and compact interface which even allows you to search for enchantments, and also direct access to your armor from within the interface.

The infuser comes in two versions: A basic one made from amethyst, and an advanced one made from netherite. The differences are quite substantial, so it might be a good idea to upgrade your infuser sooner than later: In addition to freshly enchanting items, the advanced infuser can also change enchantment levels, or even completely remove individual enchantments (curses are excluded from this). And that's not all! You can even use your experience levels to repair your tools. Furthermore both infusers differ in how they scale level costs, with the advanced version being quite a bit cheaper obviously.

By default, the basic version requires around 30 levels to max out all enchantments for an item. In contrast to vanilla, you'll have to pay all those levels and not just a maximum of 3. This makes the cost much higher than going from level 27 to 30. The advanced infuser on the other hand is quite a bit less costly, requiring around 20 levels at max. This is just a bit more than going from level 27 to 30 in the vanilla system.

To work, the infuser requires bookshelves around it, just like the vanilla enchanting table. Most enchantments and higher enchantment levels require a certain amount to be unlocked. Place those bookshelves around the infuser with a gap of one block in two layers (at the infuser's level, and one block above it).

The enchanting infuser does not offer treasure enchantments and curses, this means an enchantment which you can never obtain at a vanilla enchanting table will also not show up here. So you'll still have to use those cheesy librarians for your mending needs!

💡 FAQ:

Q: How do I configure this mod on Forge?
A: Install my Config Menus for Forge mod and do it directly in-game!

Q: How do I configure this mod on Fabric?
A: Editing configs directly in-game has not yet been implemented. Instead when in a world run the /config showfile <modid> command by choosing either CLIENT or SERVER (depending on the mod), then click the file name (ending with .toml) that appears in chat to be able to manually edit the config file in a separate editor. After saving the file, the config will automatically reload in-game after a couple of seconds, so no game restart required.

Q: Where can I download this mod for Fabric on versions of Minecraft before 1.19?
A: Older downloads are found on the old project page.

Q: Uhm, the enchantment costs are way too overpriced / way too cheap!
A: Don't worry, all parameters for calculating enchantment costs are exposed in the server config file. Simply edit them to your liking.

Q: What's this mysterious enchanting power my enchanting infuser keeps telling me about?
A: That's simply the number of bookshelves surrounding the infuser. You can see how many you already have in the bottom-right corner.

Q: I can't get the mending enchantment!
A: The enchanting infuser offers the same enchantment selection the vanilla enchanting table has. Special enchantments (e.g. mending and curses) can be enabled and configured in the server config though.

Q: Does the enchanting infuser also support disenchanting and repairing?
A: Yes, the advanced enchanting infuser can do this for you.

Q: I don't get any levels back when disenchanting!
A: You don't get levels, but you get experience points, the same amount as when using a grindstone. This is necessary due to how experience levels scale in Minecraft, otherwise you would potentially receive way more experience in levels than you've actually spent enchanting!

Q: How do I enable the tooltips with enchantment descriptions?
A: The descriptions are provided by a separate mod: Enchantment Descriptions by Darkhax.

Q: I'm using the Apotheosis mod by Shadows_of_Fire which alters the enchanting system quite significantly. Are those changes compatible with my enchanting infuser?
A: Yes, they are! When Apotheosis is installed, enchanting infusers will support higher levels for enchantments. Also costs will be significantly increased to better resemble Apotheosis' own enchanting mechanics. You'll also now have to use Apotheosis' more powerful bookshelves for your infuser to reach its full potential.

Q: I don't like the infuser textures, do you have something that's more inline with vanilla's enchanting table?
A: Wow, that hurts. Nah, just kidding. Check out Familiar Infusing Tables by theskycloud!
