Anvil Fix
by Up
Anvil Fix lifts the level limit on combining items at a vanilla anvil, so enchantments can be merged past the usual repair cost of 40.
What it does
Normally an anvil refuses to combine items once the cost passes 40 levels, which makes heavily enchanted gear too expensive to merge in Survival mode. Anvil Fix removes that cap, so the combining cost can grow without the anvil refusing the work. Items can be combined without limit, and enchantments can be stacked on one piece of equipment as far as the player is willing to pay in levels.
The server must run the mod, while players may add it for the same behavior on their own side. Installation needs Fabric API, Resourceful Config and Sparkweave Engine. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with builds covering 1.16.4 – 1.20.4. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source, though its source code and issue tracker are public.

What the author says
Anvil Fix removes the level limit of combining Items in an Anvil (vanilla default is 40), so you can repair Items an infinite amount of times or combine enchantments that would otherwise be too expensive to combine in Survival mode.
