I don't keep up with everything minecraft related - what are enchanting books?
Expanded on enchanted books
- Silk Touch can now be applied to shears on the anvil, cobweb can be harvested this way
- Can now be found in loot chests and by trading with villagers
- Unbreaking can now be applied to anything with durability
- Efficiency can now be applied to shears
- Sword enchants can now be applied to axes - via
More or less, you can enchant a book at the enchantment table just like normal tools and armor. Once enchanted that book can then be applied to other items, like unbreaking 3 to a diamond chestplate, or fire aspect to a spade.
This would offer some phenomenal utility and value to scribes if they were able to perform this with the upcoming update. On top of that, enchanters still retain their value as they are able to enchant 1 item and possibly get two or more enchants.
Finally this has to be done via the anvil to apply the enchantments. This screenshot here shows the process.
Hope this informs you and has generates some buzz for the future of herocraft!
