The enchantment table allow players to give armor and tools special abilities and strength. This feature can be looked at as trading experience for enchantments. Enchantment tables are expensive to make as it requires 2 diamonds, 4 obsidian and 1 book. There are a total of 22 enchantments available, although there are several tiers (strengths) to many of the enchantments. Some enchantments may only be given to certain tools.

Crafting

To craft you need 3 obsidian blocks at the bottom, 1 obsidian block in the middle and 2 diamonds on the left and right of the middle obsidian block and on top of the middle obsidian block a book.

Stronger Enchantments

To increase the quality and tier of the enchantments, bookshelves (and bookshelf backdrops) may be placed in the area around the enchantment table. The more the bookshelves, the more chance of receiving better enchantments. However, more XP will be required to get these higher end enchantments.

Tool enchants

Silk touch Silk Touch is an enchantment that allows players to mine various things and get the exact item they mined. In other words, it grants the player ability to harvest blocks that normally would be unobtainable or difficult to obtain. Items can be converted to their regular form with the use of a normal tool.The negative side of the Silk Touch enchantment is that it will release the raw ore forms, not the drops of Coal, Lapis Lazuli, Redstone Dust, Nether Quartz, and Diamond. This means that the player must smelt them (or use a normal tool) in order to receive them. Silk Touch is naturally available on both shovels and pickaxes. Silk Touch can be applied to Shears using the Book Enchanting method.Silk Touch also allows the player to obtain blocks that can't be obtained any other way in Survival. In addition to the mining blocks listed above, Silk Touch can be added to Shears, which allows the player to obtain Cobwebs found in Abandoned Mine Shaft.

Unbreaking Unbreaking gives a tool or weapon the chance to not use up a durability point. The higher the level, the greater chance that this will happen. It is especially useful for pickaxes and diamond tools. Unbreaking can be applied to any item that has durability (Flint and Steel, Fishing Rod, Shears) using the book enchanting method.

Efficiency Efficiency increases the working power of the tool (the speed at which it mines/destroys blocks). It can be especially helpful for diamond picks that are used to gather Obsidian, which has a very high durability. You can also find efficiency useful for cutting down trees with an axe as it is often found very boring.

Fortune Fortune is a special enchantment that gives the wielder of the enchanted tool a chance of obtaining copies of the mined object. Note that Fortune only works on immediate-drop ores, such as diamond, coal, and emerald. The higher the level, the more likely the player is to have the enchantment come into effect. It also makes it more likely to receive more than two.

Sword enchants

Sharpness Sharpness is a special enchantment that is enchanted onto a Sword, and is the most common enchantment for it. Sharpness gives the sword-of-choice a random chance of dealing one to two damage extra on the target, as if turning an Iron Sword into the equivalant of a Diamond Sword. Sharpness can be applied to an Axe using the book enchanting method.

Knockback Knockback is an enchantment that can commonly be found on Swords and is usually paired with Sharpness, creating a force to be reckoned with. Knockback increases the knockback dealt to an enemy or target depending on the level. Knockback can be done with this enchantment without having to sprint. Knockback can be applied to an Axe using the book enchanting method. This enchantment is useful for fighting creepers because it stops them from exploding

Fire aspect/Flame Fire Aspect makes the enchanted sword set the target on fire on hit. The higher the level, the longer the opponent will burn. Meat-bearing animals will drop cooked meat when slain. Fire Aspect is also useful for keeping player targets from running away, as taking environmental damage will cease a player's sprint, slowing them down. It can also be used to periodically wear down another player's armor.

Band of Arthropods Bane of Arthropods, sometimes referred to as BoA, is a common enchantment for swords. Bane of Arthropods affects all enemies classified by science to have an exoskeleton. In-game, it affects Spiders. Bane of Arthropods increases the amount of damage dealt to these types of enemies.

Smite Smite is a more rare enchantment that deals more damage to undead foes. This leaves a small range of opponents; Zombies and skeletons.

Unbreaking Unbreaking is the same as it is for the other tool enchantments. It is possible to get through normal enchanting methods, but is kind of rare and mostly found on really high enchant levels. In order to obtain unbreaking on a sword easily, the Player must enchant a book to get the enchantment on it. Once the book of Unbreaking is created, it is then possible to use an anvil to combine the book and the sword, thus making a sword with unbreaking on it.

Experience Bar

The XP or Experience Bar shows how much experience the player has. Experience can be found by killing mobs and mining the following ores, Coal, Odd rock and Diamonds. Experience can be cheated in using the xp command (xp value|add amount), but the command will only give a total of 100 levels. Using Experience in a Bottle will bring the level up by 2.
