Once players have gotten accustomed to mining, crafting, and farming, it’s time to get into a new and exciting aspect of the game. Enchanting objects in Minecraft allows you to add special properties and capabilities and can range in difficulty levels according to the materials required.
There are a couple of ways to enchant in Minecraft, and we’ll take you through each one.
How to Enchant in Minecraft? Three Different Methods for Enchanting Objects in Minecraft
You can enchant most weapons, armor, tools, and books in Minecraft.
Method 1: Enchanting Table
This is the most common method for enchanting objects in Minecraft. Build an Enchanting Table using four obsidian, two diamonds, and one book. Obsidian has to be made by pouring water into a lava source, and diamonds must be mined. The book can be crafted with paper and leather.
Once you have an Enchanting table, you can power it with Lapis Lazuli and enchant objects.
Method 2: Anvil
You can travel to a Minecraft Anvil, and combine an enchantment book with the object in mind. This method is great if you don’t want to build an Enchanting Table, but it uses a lot of XP to power up. This is also useful for up-leveling your enchantment to its Maximum level.
Method 3: Game Commands
If you enabled cheats while generating your Minecraft world, you can skip the extra steps and get right down to enchanting.
You can do this by holding the object you want to enchant and then entering in /enchant <targets> <enchantment> <level>. Make sure you’re entering in an enchantment that’s compatible with the object you’re holding. Even though this is a cheat, you won’t be able to transfer an armor enchantment to a pickaxe!
These are the three different ways to enchant an object in Minecraft. While Game Commands are undoubtedly the easiest and quickest way, they steal a big portion of the gameplay experience. Most of the fun in enchanting an object is finding the rare materials necessary and acquiring enough XP to use wisely.
