Enchanting
by Wintooo
Enchanting changes how the vanilla enchanting system behaves, with many configurable tweaks that apply at the enchanting table and to chiseled bookshelves.
What it does
Enchanting reworks the vanilla enchanting system and adds many configuration options, aimed at making enchanting more balanced and enjoyable. Enchanting tables gain a set of adjustable rules, and the mod adds chiseled bookshelf enchanting, where a bookshelf nearby can sway the table's results. Treasure enchantments are included in the pool, so they can appear through the table as well.
The mod depends on oωo (owo-lib), which must be installed alongside it on Fabric or Quilt. Enchanting runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Its files target 1.21.1 only, with the latest builds for Fabric and Quilt both dated 2026-01-31. The code is open source under the MIT License.
Settings can be changed through Mod Menu or by editing the config file in the Minecraft profile, so server owners can adjust the rules without a separate tool.
