This mod rebalances **Mending** and **anvil mechanics** to make Mending a **late-game convenience**, not a mandatory enchantment. It also adjusts **librarian book trades**, with prices that scale more fairly based on enchantment levels.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
## **Features**<\/p>\n
**Rebalanced Mending**<\/p>\n
* _Mending_ has been removed from librarian trades and fishing. It is therefore **no longer farmable**, and can now **only be found in loot chests**.
\n* The **best structures** to find enchanted books, including Mending, are:
\n * Stronghold Library \u2013 67.8%
\n * Ancient City \u2013 35.9%
\n * Desert Pyramid \u2013 23.5%
\n * Underwater Ruins \u2013 21.7%
\n * Woodland Mansion \u2013 14.9%
\n * Monster Room (Dungeon) \u2013 14.7%
\n * Mineshaft \u2013 14.1%
\n * Pillager Outpost \u2013 11%
\n * Jungle Pyramid \u2013 4.5%
\n * Stronghold Storeroom \u2013 4%
\n * Stronghold Altar \u2013 2.5%<\/p>\n
**Anvil Logic Overhaul**<\/p>\n
* Renaming an item will now **always costs 1 level**.
\n* Repairing with ingots or materials (like iron, diamond, netherite, etc.) has been reworked, the number of units needed now depends on how many are used in the item’s **crafting recipe** (e.g., 1 diamond for a shovel, 3 for a pickaxe).
\n* Anvil levels costs are now **independent of usage history**. The cost is instead calculated based on:
\n * The total **enchantment levels** present on the item _(1 base level + 1 level per enchantment level)_.
\n * The **percentage of durability restored**.<\/p>\n
Example: Repairing a diamond pickaxe with Fortune III and Efficiency V means a total of 9 enchantment levels (1 base + 3 + 5). Repairing 33% of its durability with a single diamond would cost 3 levels.<\/p>\n
**Rebalanced Librarian Trades**<\/p>\n
* Enchanted book prices now **scale dynamically** based on the **enchantment level**.
\n* Fully compatible with other mods that add custom enchanted books, their prices will be dynamically adjusted as well.
\n* **Single-level enchantments** (e.g., _Silk Touch_, _Flame_) are treated as if they were **one level higher** when determining their price.
\n* **Treasure enchantments** (e.g., _Frost Walker_, _Curse of Binding_) are also priced **as if one level higher**.\u00a0Treasure enchantments that are also **single-level** are treated as **two levels higher** (e.g., _Curse of Binding_ is priced like a Level III enchantment).
\n* The adjusted price tiers are:
\n * **6\u201321** emeralds for Level I
\n * **22\u201335** for Level II
\n * **36\u201347** for Level III
\n * **48\u201356** for Level IV
\n * **57\u201362** for Level V
\n * The **63\u201364** emerald price range is reserved for **Level V treasure enchantments**, even though such enchantments do not exist in vanilla Minecraft.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
