'''Enchantments''' modify the behavior of tools, weapons, and armor, granting additional abilities. A [[Minecraft:glint]] animation appears on items to show that they are enchanted.

[[File:Enchanting-Table.png|thumb|An enchanting table surrounded by bookshelves.]]
The player can apply enchantments to items by:
* Using an [[Minecraft:enchanting table]]. An unenchanted item can be enchanted at the cost of [[Minecraft:lapis lazuli]] and [[Minecraft:experience]] levels.
* Using an [[Minecraft:anvil]]. 
**An enchanted or unenchanted item can be combined with an [[Minecraft:enchanted book]] at the cost of experience levels.
**When two like items are combined, their enchantments are also combined, at the cost of experience levels.
* Using the {{Command|enchant}} or {{Command|give}} commands.

Enchanted items can be obtained from:
* [[Minecraft:Trading]]. Some villagers trade enchanted items for emeralds.
* [[Minecraft:Fishing]]. Enchanted items can be obtained from fishing treasure loot.
* Mob [[Minecraft:drops]]. Some mobs can spawn with enchanted weapons or armor and have a chance of dropping their items when killed by a player.
* [[Minecraft:Bartering]]. Piglins sometimes drop enchanted items when given gold.
* [[Minecraft:Generated loot]] from various [[Minecraft:structure]]s.
* [[Minecraft:Raid]]s{{only|BE}}. [[Minecraft:Pillager]]s and [[Minecraft:vindicator]]s spawned during raids may drop enchanted items.

In Creative mode, items can be enchanted using an enchanting table or anvil without using lapis lazuli or experience levels. Enchanted books can be found in the [[Minecraft:Creative inventory]].

'''{{va|Enchanting table}}'''
{{Main|Enchanting table mechanics}}

[[File:Enchanting Table GUI.png|thumb|right|176px|Enchanting table interface.]]

An enchanting table can be used to enchant unenchanted items, consuming lapis lazuli and experience levels in the process. The player can only choose one of three randomly generated enchantments to apply to the item; however, there is a chance for additional bonus enchantments to also be applied. The quality of the offered enchantments depends on the arrangement of bookshelves around the enchanting table. Which of the three offered enchantments the player can choose depends on the player's experience level.

'''{{anchor|Anvil combinations}} Anvil'''

{{Main|Anvil mechanics}}

An [[Minecraft:anvil]] can be used to combine the enchantments of two like items, or an item and an enchanted book; one of the items is always sacrificed in the process. Combining items in an anvil costs experience levels; the amount depends on the enchantments of the sacrificed item, and the number of times the items have been used in an anvil.

'''Trading'''

{{Main|Trading}}

Some villager sell enchanted equipment or books. [[Minecraft:Armorer]], [[Minecraft:fisherman]], [[Minecraft:fletcher]], [[Minecraft:toolsmith]], and [[Minecraft:weaponsmith]] villagers sell enchanted tools, weapons, or armor with non-treasure enchantmets. [[Minecraft:Librarian]] villagers sell enchanted books that can have almost any enchantment, including most treasure enchantments, except for Soul Speed, Swift Sneak, and Wind Burst.

'''Bartering'''

{{Main|Bartering}}

Piglins can trade enchanted books or iron boots with a random level of Soul Speed when given gold ingots.

'''Fishing'''

{{Main|Fishing}}
Enchanted books, bows, and fishing rods can be obtained from fishing treasure loot.

'''Mob drops'''

{{Main|Geared mobs}}

Some mobs can spawn with enchanted weapons or armor, which have an 8.5% chance of dropping if the mob is killed by a player.

'''Generated loot'''

Most [[Minecraft:structure]]s that contain loot chests have a chance of generating enchanted books or items.

'''Raids '''

{{IN|Bedrock}}, pillagers and vindicators spawned during a raid have a chance to spawn with enchanted weapons or armor, which has a chance of dropping if the mob is killed by a player.

== Behavior ==
; Effects
The effects of enchantments vary significantly. Some enchantments increase protection against specific types of damage, others increase damage to dealt to certain classes of mobs. Some enchantments grant unique abilities such as summoning a lightning bolt or turning water into ice blocks. See {{slink||List of enchantments}}.

; Level
Many enchantments have multiple levels. Generally, the higher the level, the more potent the enchantment's effects are. Levels are stylized as Roman numerals (I, II, III,...). The minimum level of any enchantment is I; the maximum level depends on the enchantment.

; Incompatibilities
Some enchantments are incompatible with one another. This means that it is not possible for the player to apply both conflicting enchantments to the same item without using commands. Enchanting tables and generated loot do not produce items with conflicting enchantments.

; Conflicting enchantments
* '''Sword:''' [[Minecraft:Sharpness]], [[Minecraft:Smite]], and [[Minecraft:Bane of Arthropods]]
* '''Tool:''' [[Minecraft:Fortune]] and [[Minecraft:Silk Touch]]
* '''Armor:''' [[Minecraft:Protection]], [[Minecraft:Fire Protection]], [[Minecraft:Blast Protection]], [[Minecraft:Projectile Protection]]
* '''Boots:''' [[Minecraft:Depth Strider]] and [[Minecraft:Frost Walker]]
* '''Bow:''' [[Minecraft:Infinity]] and [[Minecraft:Mending]]
* '''Crossbow:''' [[Minecraft:Multishot]] and [[Minecraft:Piercing]]
* '''Trident:''' [[Minecraft:Loyalty]] and [[Minecraft:Riptide]] or [[Minecraft:Channeling]] and [[Minecraft:Riptide]]
* '''Mace:''' [[Minecraft:Density]], [[Minecraft:Breach]], Smite, and Bane of Arthropods.
* '''Books:''' Sharpness, Density, and Breach. All of the above restrictions also apply.

Some enchantments are incompatible with certain items. For example, Protection, which decreases damage, cannot be applied to swords, and Sharpness, which increases attack damage cannot be applied to armor.

Primary and secondary items

An enchantment's ''primary items'' are the set of items that can receive the enchantment from an enchanting table. Some items that cannot receive a particular enchantment from an enchanting table can still have the enchantment applied to them by combining the item with an enchanted book in an anvil; these are the enchantment's ''secondary items''.

; {{va|Treasure}}

Treasure enchantments cannot be obtained through an enchanting table, and are never found on natural equipment worn by mobs or on enchanted ''equipment'' traded by villagers. Most treasure enchantments, however, can be generated on [[Minecraft:enchanted book]]s sold by [[Minecraft:librarian]]s. If a treasure enchantment is tradable, it has double the price (before capping to 64 emeralds) compared to a non-treasure enchantment of the same level.

Some treasure enchantments, such as Soul Speed, Swift Sneak, and Wind Burst, can only be obtained in specific structures or through a specific game mechanic.

* [[Minecraft:Swift Sneak]]{{FN|name=non-tradable}}

}}
{{FNlist}}

; {{va|Curse}}

Curse enchantments apply negative modifiers to items and cannot be removed. Attempting to [[Minecraft:disenchant]] an item with a curse enchantment removes all other enchantments, except for the curse enchantment.

{{columns-list|

* [[Minecraft:Curse of Vanishing]]
}}

== Disenchanting ==
Enchantments can be removed from an item by [[Minecraft:item repair|combining]] it with another item in the [[Minecraft:grindstone]] or the [[Minecraft:crafting grid]]. This does not remove [[Minecraft:curse]] enchantments from the item.

The tables below show which enchantments can be obtained through an enchanting table, and which can only be applied through an anvil.

*{{BlockSprite|Enchanting Table}} indicates the item can receive the enchantment from an [[Minecraft:enchanting table]].
*{{BlockSprite|Anvil}} indicates the item ''cannot'' receive the enchantment from an enchanting table, but can receive the enchantment by using an [[Minecraft:anvil]] to combine the item with an enchanted book or another enchanted item.

== Maximum effective values for enchantments ==
Using commands, items can be enchanted at higher levels than in vanilla gameplay. Some enchantments continue to increase their effectiveness at higher levels. However, there is a point where higher levels no longer increase effectiveness. The table below shows the effective limits for enchantments (also found [https://gist.github.com/tryashtar/4e3917bbd59532463d280755a63705d0 here]).
