Minecraft expanded playability by introducing experience points, with upgrades for weapons and armor that you can spend it on. You can get the best enhancements costing up to 50 levels. Follow the simple steps below
Put down the bookshelf blocks. Bookshelves raise probability of getting high enchantments.
- Use the Minecraft Wiki to find the picture of the optimal layout. Only 30 bookshelves are needed in a 5×5 square two blocks high, with an entrance. Proven to get level 50 enchantments. No need for stairs as shown in some pictures.
Place the enchanting table in center.
Use the table. Right click on it to open the table. The slot near the book GUI is where the item to be enchanted goes. Place it there. The encrypted words are totally random, and have no effect on the enchantment. Pick whichever enchantment you want. The most common enchantments, when there are no bookcases, are sharpness, smite and bane of arthropods for swords. For bows the most common enchantment is punch.
Note
- You will need Minecraft 1.0.0 in order to do this.
- Your score will not be deducted by making enchantments.
- The Table will enchant swords, shovels, pickaxes, and axes of wood, stone, iron, gold, and diamond, as well as all armor.
- The hoe, shears, fishing rod and flint and steel cannot be enchanted. Bows can be enchanted as of 1.1.
