Smithing Table

What It Does

The Smithing Table lets you upgrade tools and armor, apply enchantments, and combine items in advanced ways.

Upgrading Tools

Place a diamond tool in the left slot and a netherite ingot in the right slot to upgrade it to a netherite tool with improved stats.

Combining Enchanted Items

Combine two enchanted items to merge their enchantments. If both have the same enchantment, it levels up the enchantment.

How to Get Specific Enchantments

Via Enchanting Table

The table shows 3 random options. Keep trying until you get the enchantment you want, or save good enchanted books.

Via Enchanted Books

Fish for enchanted books, trade with villagers, find them in loot, or extract them from items using Disenchantment.

Via Anvil

Combine an enchanted book with your tool to apply any enchantment. Use Anvils at the shop or your base.

Via Trading

Other players with specific enchanted books can trade them to you. Check the shop or ask in chat!

💡 Tips & Tricks

  • Mending is the most valuable enchantment - always prioritize it
  • Use Disenchantment to remove bad enchantments and get books
  • Build a fishing farm to find enchanted books passively
  • Enchanted books can be stored indefinitely - build a collection!
  • Some enchantments are mutually exclusive (e.g., Mending and Infinity)
  • Higher level enchantments require more XP but are more powerful
  • Netherite tools are superior to diamond - upgrade them!
  • Keep backup copies of your best tools in case one breaks
