_Made as part of Legacies, with the aim of reimagining the core principles of vanilla Minecraft. Explore, adventure and survive in an all-new world. If you like Enchants and Expeditions, I highly recommend you (https://modrinth.com/modpack/legacies)**_

Enchants and Expeditions is a comprehensive reimagining of almost the entire vanilla enchanting system - namely enchanting tables, anvils, bookshelves, enchanted books & even the enchantments themselves. This is achieved through a plethora of systematic tables - including enchanting table attributes, blessings, enchantment reworks and much more.

### Using the Enchanting Table

Enchanting Tables - requires bookshelves in order to function - can now re-enchant already enchanted items up to the enchanting limit - the pool of available enchantments is highly customisable, and determined by a new set of enchanting attributes

Enchanting Attributes - Mana - primary attribute which represents classic magic & enchantments (ie sharpness, efficiency, physical protection) - Frost - primary attribute which represents cold magic (ie icebound, frostbite, chilled) - Scorch - primary attribute which represents fire magic (ie smiting, flame, blazing) - Flow - sub-attribute of mana & frost which represents water & movement (ie depth strider, respiration, quickstep) - Chaos - sub-attribute of frost & scorch which represents an unpredictable combination of elements (ie thorns, elemental protection, entropy) - Greed - sub-attribute of scorch & mana which represents a need for treasure (ie fortune, looting, luck of the sea) - Might - sub-attribute of all 3 primary attributes which represents strength (ie knockback, riptide, cleaving) - Corruption - represents the chance to receive a curse, defaults to 0 - Divinity - represents the chance to receive a blessing, defaults to 0

Bookshelves - the vanilla Bookshelf slightly increases all attributes, excluding Corruption & Divinity - the Arcane Bookshelf increases Mana & its sub-attributes and is crafted with calcite - the Glacial Bookshelf increases Frost & its sub-attributes and is crafted with packed ice - the Infernal Bookshelf increases Scorch & its sub-attributes and is crafted with blackstone - full details can be found in-game on the tooltip of each block

Altar & Tomes - the Altar is crafted from Deepslate & Amethyst, and is used in order to place Tomes which can significantly influence the Enchanting Table and allows you to receive Blessings - 7 main tomes (Mana, Frost, Scorch, Flow, Chaos, Greed, Might) which each increase Divinity and Corruption simultaneously, alongside increasing their respective attribute & decreasing opposing ones - 2 modification tomes (Stability & Power) which reduces Corruption and increases enchanting power respectively - full details on the exact properties of each Tome can be found in-game as part of their item tooltips

Where to find Tomes

_Structures in rounded brackets are part of Legacies & Legends integration_ - Tome of Mana: found in Strongholds (and Ruined Libraries or Simple Dungeons) - Tome of Frost: found in Igloos or Shipwrecks (and Frozen Dungeons) - Tome of Scorch: found in Fortresses (and Spires or Infernal Dungeons ) - Tome of Flow: found from slain Elder Guardians - Tome of Chaos: found in Woodland Mansions (and Verdant Dungeons) - Tome of Greed: found in Ancient Cities (and Arid Dungeons) - Tome of Might: found in Trial Chambers ominous vaults (and Deep Dungeons) - Tome of Stability: traded from max level Librarians (requires VillagerConfig) and found in Mineshafts - Tome of Power: traded from max level librarians (requires VillagerConfig) and found in Trial Chambers

### Using an Anvil

Anvils - repairing or renaming items no longer requires XP - combining enchanted items uses a new experience formula, which is static based on the enchantments being combined and the final output item - as such, there is no XP limit on the Anvil, you can do what you want so long as you do not exceed the enchantment cap

Enchanted Books - now have 4 durability, and only lose 1 when applied to an item - can be repaired with lapis lazuli - this makes treasure enchantments useable indefinitely once collected - enchanted books are still combined into one when merged, and cannot be enchanted at the enchanting table

### Systems

Experience Improvements*

Enchants and Expeditions adds a new, rebalanced experience formula (toggle-able in the config). The rebalance keeps level 1-30 balance very close to vanilla, whilst higher levels only increase sli
