Tool Level UP
by gublack
Tool Level UP lets players push supported enchantments on tools past the normal vanilla limits, paying with materials instead of experience points.
What it does
A Tool Level Up Table is added by Tool Level UP, which introduces a progression system for raising compatible enchantments above their standard caps. Upgrade costs are paid in materials rather than XP, and the limits and costs for each enchantment can be set individually. A public command shows the costs for the current item.
A Tool Level Up Guide is included in the mod. It lists each enchantment's description, the items it applies to, the maximum levels and the full upgrade costs. Every player receives one Guide automatically after installing the mod, including in a world that already existed before the mod was added. Survival crafting recipes are included for the table and related items.
The mod needs Fabric API on Fabric. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with 8 release versions 1.20.1 – 26.3 in the catalog, and the code is licensed under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Enchantments beyond vanilla limits
Supported enchantments can be raised above the normal Minecraft maximum, step by step, using the table.
Material-based upgrades
Upgrades that would normally cost experience levels are paid with items instead, which changes how enchanting fits into survival.
Custom upgrade table
The Tool Level Up Table is a dedicated block that holds the upgrade options, including extra +1 MAX levels.
Per-enchantment limits and costs
Each enchantment has its own maximum and cost, so a server can tune how far each one goes.
Built-in guide
The Tool Level Up Guide documents every upgrade cost, maximum and compatible item in one place.
