Next you should build this super simple Enderman XP Farm! It gets you 30 Levels per Minute: th-cam.com/video/UPt_fM2l_u0/w-d-xo.html
How would I get those exact enchantments. Would I use the enchantment table to get them and then add them to each other?
Mi potato farm give me more and faster
@@tr0picb00tleg3 Enchanting Table is one way, and you can also buy Enchanted Books from Librarian villagers.
Oh cool I was using right
The wrong way of putting the enchantments cost over 277 levels and the correct way cost only 121 levels which has a great advantage of levels cause its way cheaper.
And the best way to get great enchantments (my opinion) is villagers, but there is also enchantment grinding which you need a lot of levels a enchantment table a grindstone and a lot of books.

@@Happy-wu8vh You could just use any smelt-able things. What I do is I go mine some blocks cobble/netherrack and use the outcome for builds
@@kyleyugo129 NO YOU CANNOT USE OVER 39 LEVEL'S, it doesn't matter how much xp you have it will still say "it's to expensive" let me set an example, let's say you're enchanting your diamond sword, and you added a enchantment to your sword that cost 36 xp, and wanna add a few more enchantments, and you have 100 xp from an xp farm, when trying to add ANY enchantment to the sword it will say "too expensive" this is because you spent to much on the sword. The only way to fix this is trying to get a new sword and be wise with your enchantments

They arnt you just don't know how to figure stuff out for yourself you keyboard morons
basically anvils are like banks charging interest
Yeah, but once you have a mending villager you really don't care anymore.
Villagers are best for mending looting or fortune. Afterwards just roll the dice with the enchanting tables for whatever enchantments you get and combine mending and whatever else you may be missing or wanting through villager trading.
You can also roll dice with enchanting books but some you'll never get sadly like mending and i think lvl 5 power enchants like smite or sharpness you'll rarely get.
even an expensive chunk of iron hates my guts
and remember, you dont have to splat all the enchantments in your sword at once or it will be too expensive to add even the first time, you can split the difference using a book that has like 50%-75% of the enchantments you need, and the second one with the little ones you left out so even if your sword already has 1 anvil use, it wont be too expensive to not being able to add them
you should be dropping the anvils on enemies, thats what Warner Bros taught me

61 levels would be considered too expensive in survival, so i guess you’ve shown another way to use the anvil incorrectly
Well.... he was including a lot of enchantments that nobody would want on a sword in most cases, I mean Curse of Vanishing?!? Really?!? So if you trim out the ones that are least helpful, you're prolly fine in survival lol
@@ScarletFury yeah but it’s still a super bad way of enchanting. this guy seems to not realize that the final cost multiplier is determined by the item with the highest multiplier x 2, not just the item on the right x 2. instead of slapping everything on one book, it’s better to pair the items with each other, then keep pairing until you’ve combined them all, preferably with the expensive enchants getting applied to the sword first
Just make an exp farm lol
@@espernova228 you literally can’t use the anvil on an item in survival if the xp cost is over 40 levels, even if you have more than 40 levels
I mean… not if you have an xp machine. You can get 60 levels in only like ten min
Pro tip (at least on bedrock, idk about Java but I assume it’s the same)
Enchantment tables don’t count for this number so it costs less xp to get one of (or more) the enchantments you want by directly enchanting an object in an enchantment table

Misticat: You use anvils wrong
Me who use anvils as a building material in survival:
Man, I hope you have an iron farm. Or, barring that, a wood farm and mending on your pick, because that's a lot of mining. Anvils are ridiculously expensive
Same brother same
How big is the build
@LordofSorrows I had an iron farm, but it wasn't fast enough for me, so I went also mining
@nistha Sharma It was a big bridge in the nether and I needed 312 anvils
btw, enchant your weapon once first, makes things a bit easier you'll already have some enchants you need
Wdym?
@@frankieiero6859 he meant that when u enchant using the enchant table u will get a extra enchntment.. like if u put sharpness 3 on ur sword it will also put another enchanment for free like unbreaking or fire aspect etc
Can be good but also risky. There's a chance you'll end up with an incompatible enchantment like Bane of Arthropods or Smite. Less of an issue in the current version of minecraft where you can use a Whetstone to start over, but still annoying.
@@zactron1997 just get the level 1 enchant then grindstone until you find the level 3 enchant you want
Yea and never combine two of the same to get max of one Stat just reroll and grind stone till you got all the best ready to go
Additionally, of you use an enchanting table to get one or two enchantments you want, you don't need as many books (and therefore levels) to max out your sword
Additionally, combining tools to combine or add enchantments, if I remember correctly, you use the more damaged tool then add the enchanted item second and it’s cheaper. I’ve had enchantments go from 26 to 8.
You can’t even put a 61 level book on a sword, because more than 39 in survival will come out as, “Too Expensive!”.
@AFWAN DANIEL BIN SYUKRAN Moe I figured that, but he still didn’t mention that at all.

“1 + (Anvil Uses) = (1+Anvil Uses)”
Hmm yes the floor is made out of floor
The archer class is really made out of archers
What?! I was sure the floor was made out of ceiling!
To explain this simply:
Each item has a counter saying how many times you hammered it. When you have all the books and items you want to combine always combine items that have the same amount of anvil uses to conserve as much xp as possible. The anvil always adds one to the item that has more anvil uses and slaps it onto the resulting item
Very, very helpful. I can't translate anything in this video into understandable English, I guess everyone's brain works differently. If I were posting it, I would try to explain so even a non-player could understand easily. Each to his own tho ig
What I always do - before I resort to using books in an anvil, I simply enchant a few pieces of equipment (for example a few diamond swords) because that's the easiest way to get maximum level enchantments. That way I can already have about 5 enchantments just by merging 2-3 swords together. Then I just have to add something like Mending and I'm set. It's all about being efficient and going for the highest level enchants to minimise anvil usage.
The most important premise in this video is incorrect, making most of the content wrong.
The number of anvil uses ("prior work" or pw) on the resulting item is always going to be *one more than the HIGHEST* of the two combined items - not the second item in the anvil. For example, combining a book with 3 uses and a book with 1 use doesn't result in 2 - it results in 4.
Because of the way you're doing it in this video, you're trying to create a sword with a pw of 6, not 2, which is why the cost is outlandish and not actually doable in Survival. When you combine the 4-enchant book with Curse of Vanishing, the resulting book has a pw of 3, not 1; then adding the Binding/Unbreaking book increases it to 4, and then adding Mending brings it to 5. You're basically making the same mistake as you demonstrated with the sword in the first place.
Items with a prior work of 0 (or 0 anvil uses) add no additional cost for the prior work. For 1 prior work, the penalty is 1 level added to the cost; for 2 prior work, the cost is 3 additional levels; for 3 prior work, it's 7, for 4 it's 15, and for 5 it's 31. You add the pw penalty for each item, so it doesn't matter what order the items are in the anvil in for this calculation.
The reason the numbers are different when you swap the books is because there is a cost for each enchant that's on the item being sacrificed (i.e., the item in the second slot). Each enchantment is a different cost - for example, Unbreaking III is 3, Mending is 2, Looting III is 6, etc. These are all listed on the link at the bottom of this post. These costs are double if you're sacrificing a piece of equipment rather than a book, by the way. But this explains why the price skyrockets when you're trying to sacrifice the combined books - it's because of the *enchantments* on the second book, not the prior work on it. (Side note: Combining two items to *upgrade* an enchantment, such as a Sharpness III book and a Sharpness III sword, will cost what the resulting enchantment will be, not what the sacrificed item is. So in this case, the cost would be 4 for Sharpness IV instead of 3 for Sharpness III. But for this post, we'll assume the max level for each enchantment.)
Here's one way you'd make your exact sword in Survival:
1. Enchant the sword at the enchanting table first so as to avoid incurring a prior work penalty on the sword. Looting III is the most expensive enchant to sacrifice off a book (6), so go for that in the table to avoid the cost of adding it to the sword later. (Cost: 3 levels for using the enchanting table)
2. Add one of two curses to the sword - doesn't matter which since they have the same cost. Let's say Curse of Vanishing. The sword now has two enchants with only a pw of 1. (Cost: 4 for sacrificing Curse of Vanishing)
3. Combine the other Curse with Unbreaking III into their own book, which we'll call "CU". CU's pw = 1. (Cost: 3 for sacrificing Unbreaking III)
4. Combine the sword with CU. The sword now has 4 enchants and a pw of 2. (Cost: 9 for sacrificing both Curse of Vanishing and Unbreaking III, plus a prior work penalty of 1 on both the book and the sword)
5. Combine Sharpness V and Knockback II into their own book (book SK). SK's pw = 1. (Cost: 2 for sacrificing Knockback)
6. Combine Fire Aspect II and Mending into their own book (book FM). FU's pw = 1. (Cost: 2 for sacrificing Mending)
7. Combine SK and FM into a new book (book SKFM). SKFM's pw = 2. (Cost: 8 for sacrificing both Fire Aspect and Mending, plus 1 each for the prior work on the books)
8. Combine the sword and book SKFM. The sword now has a pw of 3 and all 8 enchants. (Cost: 19 instead of 61, for sacrificing all 4 enchants on the book and adding 3 each for the prior work on both items)
The Ultimate Sword (no curses, includes Sweeping Edge III):
1. Enchant the sword with Sweeping Edge III or Looting III at an enchanting table (if you get Smite, Sharpness, or Bane of Arthropods, make sure it's one of those three you want because you can't change it - hit the grinding stone with it otherwise and start over)
2. Add the other (Sweeping Edge or Looting) to the sword
3. Add Fire Aspect II to the sword
4. Combine Sharpness/Smite/Bane & Knockback (SK)
5. Combine Unbreaking & Mending (UM)
6. Combine SK and UM (SKUM)
7. Combine the sword with SKUM: You get all 7 enchantments with an end pwp of 3.
I've done a lot of enchanting and tested the method above before posting this, so I know this is correct. Everything can be sourced from here, including all the math and enchant costs: minecraft.gamepedia.com/Anvil_mechanics
Underrated comment, srsly
Wow man, thanks for sharing, i'm glad that i found your comment.
Bruh you just wrote a dictionary
goddamn legend you are, i just did the same thing as your recommendations - it is exactly the same thing, same prices, same results; you can calculate the "pw" by trying to rename it - the prior work penalty affects the renaming
if you are wondering about where to get these books (Sharp 5 and Mending) - buy from a Librarian villager, their prices are fair (64 emeralds for Sharp 5 and 36 for Mending is ok) and you can zombie-cure them to lower the prices
thanks!
Pro tip: Try getting some of the desired Enchants from an Enchanting Table directly on your tool/armor, so it will cost way less to combine in an Anvil later. Also, you can't combine anything in an Anvil that costs more than 39 levels in Survival, because it will say "Too Expensive!"
Also you should enchant Netherite wrather than diamonds bc it gets a similar enchantment bonus that gold gets. For example, the best level of sharpness you can get on a diamond sword is 3, with Netherite that is 4. You also have a way higher chance of getting extra enchants besides the ones it shows on the table's menu.
@@shanewshal True, but most people already have maxed-out Diamond by the time they get to Netherite, so it makes more sense for them to upgrade their existing Diamond Tools/Armor to Netherite instead.
@@arkajyotipal6205 yeah ik but I use it if I'm making armour for other people or if im starting a new world and I dont have a great villager setup
It should be 49 levels
@@dannyphantom4157 I googled it and it says 39 is the max. :/
The anvil usage of the combined item is always (max of anvil usages of the two items) + 1.
The difference of prices of combining the same two books in different orders is the cost moving different enchantments from the second book onto the first.
I've literally never added enchantments to swords one-by-one though
People are dumb honestly
For those curious, I added up the total levels required for the 'efficient' method, and it comes to a total of 121 levels (4 + 5 + 3 + 9 + 7 + 15 + 17 + 61) vs the earlier method with 277 levels (6 + 5 + 5 + 12 + 19 + 34 + 67 + 129).
Even disregarding intermediate / total level costs, the cost of final combine alone is rather insane; ~60 levels can mean up to 20 level 3 rolls on the enchanting table!

This kick-started my research on anvil/enchants. It's crazy. There's stuff with enchantment multipliers which is multiplied by the prior anvil use, therefore it's smarter to combine CERTAIN books together in a particular order to get even cheaper. Thanks Mysti
there's a guide on minecraft wiki called Best Enchantments Guide
which shows the best order
@@Ant_Redstone Thanks! I lost my book with all of my notes and I was about to open a blacksmithing shop on my server, so I was dreading the research/math I'd have to do all over again. :P
I actually somewhat knew about this after many uses, it explains why when you put a 'many anvil uses' sword into an anvil with another sword (perhaps you're adding another enchantment or repairing it), it costs SO much level, sometimes even but if you just flip it the other way around, 20 levels :)
This. Channel. Needs. To. Grow!! You've done the best job at explaining this concept so far out of all the vids out there. And it only took 4 minutes when others take 20. Have gnembon shout you out or something. Keep at it :)

You can’t enchant more than 39 ni survival no matter how many xp you have.
@@laitdejabot9890 We arw doing the enchantments one by one
Overall if you add all the enchantments to the sword at one it costs like 250-ish (if I remember correctly) and if you combine them into one book its only 121 total which is only 5 less then putting the last enchant on the sword
i knew the first portion but i really didnt think to optimize it so far. This is really nice. thankyou.
It’s worth mentioning that investing in a good enchantment table can help sometimes too. Suppose you have an enchantment table at the maximum level. It isn’t too incredibly hard to get something like Sharpness IV, Fire Aspect II, and Knockback II on a single sword with a perfect enchantment table. After all, you can get a near-perfect pickaxe in one enchantment as well with a maxed out enchantment table. You could then enchant a different sword with Sweeping Edge III and Sharpness IV (the odds of you getting three specific enchantments for each sword is low which is why I didn’t say looting). If you really want to save levels, combine those two swords and you’ll find it’s relatively cheap and you almost have a perfect sword. They both have 0 anvil uses. Yes, it uses more resources and yes it’ll still require some levels, but you can use the grindstone for failed attempts and if you understand what enchantments you need and adapt to what you get, you save a lot of levels. I do this all the time.
Yes, you definitely want fire aspect and knockback on your sword... definitely.
@@sirmclovin9184 Depends on your playstyle.
@@sirmclovin9184 fire aspect makes enderman teleport all over the place making it difficult to get their loot and knockback makes skeletons harder to fight since you typically want skeletons to be closer to you in order to be able to hit them and if they are are far way they can just get easy hits on you
@@Regularguy2nd FYI, it was irony.
I wouldn't say it's impossible but I'd say it's pretty difficult to get 3 enchantments or more at once with swords, unless you have a bussin xp farm. (or maybe its just my bad luck with swords lmfao)
But I do agree, I just enchant with sharpness 4 and hopefully get a good side enchantment, and if you have cured zombie villagers the trades are OP so you won't have to really worry about the books...
of course resetting the trades over and over again to get the ones you want can be...really....really...tiring....
I'm not a fan of Knockback, nor sweeping edge, they're definitely good PVE enchantments but I play on smps. So unless I'm specifically getting a seperate PVE sword than those aren't enchantments I'll go out of my way to get.
Why’d he put the curse of binding and vanishing books... it really hurt me
Just for the sake of the video. It`s not like he actually going to use the sword right?
Because, its an enchantment book, so he used it.
Not gonna say it but you could build a better sword and for cheaper. No curses and add sweeping edge
@@saelo5996 he just added Curses so he Would have more Books to example with.
@@saelo5996 Lol, but... you, you did say it.
I didn't feel like learning this by myself again so thanks for the refresher course lol.
My personal problem with this tactic is while it works if you already have all the enchantments, it’s a little impractical to go around with a unenchanted sword because you want to wait to enchant it until you have every single enchantment you want for it
Also remember, adding enchants in descending order by the level of the enchantment can also reduce costs
*Laughs in hypixel skyblock player
It be like that
haha same
i learned about anvil uses the hard way, jk i just used forums. anvil uses are the most important aspect of enchanting imo
Even though they currently removed anvil uses with the new enchanting update, when they were a thing, it really helped me out in regular survival as I was able to create god armor and weapons using a lot less levels than before
time to go grind 500 levels!
I literally LOL'd at the last few seconds. Nice vid, too!
I play vanilla survival 1.16
I use the enchantment table... to get protection or sharpness IV if possible with additional enchantments on the gear and the rest I get from e.t. books or trading books (additional enchants are especially useful for boots)
Then I start adding enchantment books with 0 or 1 anvil uses and I stay below 39 levels to get the most optimal setup in survival without curses, I go by the cheapest first then the more expensive ones
Thank you for making this, I was just about to make my god armor on a public server I'm on this Friday and I would've wasted sooo many levels.
Np! Lol
I had no idea how anvils worked. I just found this video from your post on the forums, and everything makes way more sense now.
Awesome!
Also if combining things, it might be easier to switch the books/swords/armor and you might find its cheaper. If you have two contradicting enchantments, like smite and sharpness, then you have to put the desired enchant first.
I thought that the cost was increasing as I enchanted, this was real helpful
Wooooow, I had no idea anvils worked that way! It always were a huge pain to have the need to stack lots and lots of levels to stack good enchantments. Who knows now I can save a little bit ! Amazing vídeo as always
Great! Glad I could help
What a bad time for me to realize i get that items can get stupidly expensive but i didnt know there were a maximum amount of uses
@@jiyzo Not only the 6 anvil uses, but the amount of levels an anvil can stand (39).
In Survival you can't add all useful enchantments via books on some items (Sword and boots surely from my experience), you better begin with the enchanting table.
There should be a part about nbt tags also that limits this mechanic.
He doesn't really explain it correctly tho, the way it actuslly works is amount of edits on book + amount of edits on second book + 1
Not a little, this saves a lot.
You forgot to mention that every previous addition always adds up the level cost. The first sword actually cost a total of 277 levels and the second only ended up costing 121. Even more saved levels than you stated in the video.
Bruh, you have to remember that the higher your level is, the more XP you will have to grind to get more levels.
For example, it's easier to get you from 10 lvl to 20 lvl than from 20 to 30. The effort grows exponentially.
Btw his video guide is a little misleading, this one's more useful (and in depth): www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/ijx456/guide_how_to_enchantcombine_items_in_an_anvil/?
The important part is that the anvil use costs less than 39 levels so that it's possible. Actually getting the levels isn't that big of a deal, especially when the do cost less than 39, as that's much less exp than say, 120.
I always used to change the spots of the items because I knew they change levels. But I never knew that they had this kind of algorithm
Little sidenote is that at the end and little before it the 0 anvil use book won't change the anvil-uses by bringing it down to one. The anvil will use the higher value of anvil-uses between the two items and add one to it. So when you added the Curse Of Vanishing the book was actually at an anvil-use of 3 and not 1. This also means the final book had an anvil use of 5 and not 1.
Just wanted to clarify since as you said "It can be a little hard to understand."
This goes against everything my math teacher taught me
This is so helpfull! Thank You
Np!
Sure do wish I knew this earlier, LOL.
Excellent video, Mysti, thank you!

Sadly, it seems most of what they said was wrong. There's a comment, in this video still, that tells why and shows how anvils actually work
@@brunoaltoe100 That comment certainly was eye-opening. Too many people will drop videos on topics they barely understand, but since they're a "well known content creator" their word is just taken as gospel.
bruh i just enchant from the table and combine multiple swords, huge time save and if you prioritize getting fortune first it's not a terrible use of materials
This is why you need to make a max bookshelf enchanting table and with a bit of luck, enchant your sword first with the highest lapiz lazuli use(which is 3) before combining it with enchantment books. It will save up your exp for other tools to forge.

I'm leaving this comment on the internet.
I've never seen anyone use rail tactics in mineshafts EVER and I'm totally astounded that no one else has figured this out yet.
Hostile Mobs don't like walking on rails.
There is a 1 space gap between the wood fences in mineshafts.
Pick up the rails in the mineshaft.
Place a single rail at every wooden truss.
Congratulations, you have compartmentalized the mineshaft complex for your safety and convenience.
May this comment be spread through the Minecraft community.

oh that's pretty good, thanks
I mean, true, but mineshafts are useless after you collect valuables from chests. Just get the stuff you need and bail.
@@squeezyjibbs6643 yea he is right
Massive respect for the Total Miner Forge background music.
Lmao I was looking for this comment
Okay I knew most of this but then the adding a 0 book to keep things lower blew my mind for order. Thank you!
The reason I didn't know how to save levels is that I literally didn't know you could combine enchants on books. I thought that was illegal. Having sharpness and knockback on a book didn't make sense to me.
This is still not the best way. You can get the same amount of enchantments for way cheaper. If u enchant your sword directryl through the enchantment table and get 2 or 3 enchantments, add a book that may have another 3 enchabtments and it will be way under 20 lvls to combine. It takes longer because u have to find a book with multiple enchantments but its worth it
I just added a bow with infinity and power 5 to another with mending and unbreaking 3, But I didn't realize that mending and infinity were incompatible and I lost infinity, I should have put it in the first slot right? D:
Don’t worry Infinity sucks anyway, mending gang for life 🤟
@@quantumpuddles7591 yessir
I’d recommend poking around underground til you find a skelly spawned or just build a mob grinder. Both will replenish your bow’s durability and get you arrows. Mending is actually better in the long run imo if you have one of those 2 things.
infinity is shit anyways since it doesnt work on tipped arrows.
I was keenly aware of 'anvil uses' for years but I did not realize it applied to everything, not just repairs. I had previously thought it only affected repairs.
I was trying to learn about how to get new enchantments on the same sword, but this helps because I have no anvil but I did an iron run!
I was quite happy to find out I was enchanting right without even knowing it :))
i just had the realisation that the reason my shovel was being "too expensive" was because i was buying my books from a villager that sold me efficiency one and i was using all of my uses then
WTF. I was just changing books until I got efficiency 5.
@@sf7376 I originally had the villager giving me mending but as a second trade it was efficiency 1
@@joelfletcher3075 U can destroy lectern and place it again until u get what u want, until u buy something from him. When u buy from villager, it dosen't work anymore.
@@sf7376 I know that but at the time it was just easier to do what I did
This was actually incredably helpful. Thanks my dude.
Mind blown, this really helps for survival thanks man!
will disenchanting my tools with a grindstone remove my anvil uses?
Yes it will
@@timolk461 i play in java and in bedrock and once i was playing in bedrock and after i removed the enchantments from a helmet on the grindstone and added a protection IV to it, it wouldn't let me add more enchantments in the anvil saying is "too expensive" idk what i did wrong
@@timolk461 no it wont
I know it does at least on Java
it will not remove the curses i guess
Bro you are amazing, I had a almost god sword and was going to add sharpness five to it but it wouldn't let me. I used information from this video and it worked! Thanks
Nice!
why wouldnt it let you?
@@Storm55554 I had used it in an anvil too much but after I swapped them around, it worked and now I have a god sword :).
Me and my friend just got a god sword today! We started the world yesterday :D
Worth noting that there's also the factor of wanting to use levels when you have them since level xp cost isn't linear
You can save even more by starting with an enchanting table enchanted item that has 0 anvil uses, thus saving yourself the need for one or two of those books in the first place.
1:35 "If you saw" which I didn't, cause there was text right over the cost
Hey mysticat, im a new subscriber to your channel. Quick question, how can we use this info in survival? Upgrading items that cost more than 40 are “too expensive” :/
Yeah, of course
Mysticat so can you do it in survival or not?
Yes
I could be wrong but from my understanding another factor with enchanting is that the higher number enchantment (I II III IV V) the more costly. So you should try to apply your smaller enchantment books to your bigger enchantment books to reduce cost further. Using both these tactics you should be able to anvil up any tool you want in survival
Thank you for simplifying it so even I can understand it.
You're using anvils wrong too, because the new prior work penalty (PWP) is the higher of the two previous prior work penalties plus one.
So if you have Item 1 = PWP3 and Item 2 = PWP2, the new item will be PWP4 (3+1).
If you have Item 1 = PWP4 and Item 2 = PWP5, the new item will be PWP6 (5+1).
If you have Item 1 = PWP4 and Item 2 = PWP0, the new item will still be PWP5 (4+1).
Somebody that actually knows what they're doing knows survival mode players are only allowed to enchant items with a level 39 or lower requirement, and will enchant the item in a maxed enchanting table first before applying any new enchantments.
Dude, this is crazy! I had no idea. Thanks for the video :)
3:56 OK OK CHILL I WILL NEVER STOP WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS
Me who doesn't even use anvils: Why am I watching this?
how
@@rickpin_0612 I only enchant them directly and leave it like that
2:57 How?! 2 envil uses + 0 envil uses = 1 envil use????? how??? 2+0=2 not 2+0=1
The item in the first slot is added to the second slot. You can only put one item in the slot. Like the formula says, "1 book" + "anvil uses" = 1 + "anvil uses". The number of anvil uses on the first slot doesn't matter, the number is always 1
@@mysticat Okay i get it now thanks
@@mysticat oh i see now.. i was wrong adding right to left.. but now left to right.. first slot to anvil uses slot
I even don't use my anvil for enchantment for months (only to rename a nametag), but it's quite interesting to learn how anvil works
I always swap things in the anvil to see which way costs less XP, but now that I know the mechanics at work I can skip the trial and error. Thanks!
Wait a Minute. HE USED CURSE OF VANISHING AND BINDING. I USED IT TO TROLLING PEOPLE ONLY.
you are that type of teacher who actually knows what hes talking about and explains it in a fun way
Hello, this is the first vid I watched from u, but i think im gonna binge watch
The reset tip is really nice
Too bad i saw dis after i got my enchantments
Rip
@@mysticat same
First time viewer. Watched til the end. I freggin died lmao at the very end lolol.
Welcome!
RIP bro 😢😢
oh i get it thats why when i want to repair my fishing rod it needs 33 levels and when i flipped it it costs 5 levels i was very confused
For the first sword it actually cost 268 xp if you include adding up all the enchantments together, not just the cost at the end. The second only cost 121 xp
