Special enchantments

Beyond the 41 special treasure-type enchantments, there are the over-max ones: 12 plain old vanilla enchantments pushed past their normal cap. It's the same Protection, the same Sharpness or the same Fortune you already know, but a level (or more) above what the game normally allows.

These extra levels don't come out of the enchanting table or from librarians (those still top out at the vanilla cap at most). They're exclusive to the Deeplands Merchant: you buy them with Sculk Coin and apply them at the anvil, like any other book. That said, you can't raise them by combining two items: the over-max level comes already fixed in the book you buy.

The Deeplands Merchant and Sculk Coin are explained on the Deeplands page. There you'll find where the trader is and how to get the currency.

These are the 12 enchantments and how far you can take them:

On top of the regular game's enchantments, there are 41 exclusive enchantments you won't find in vanilla. They're treasure enchantments: they don't show up at the enchanting table — you get them from loot chests, fishing and crates. Every item displays its enchantment along with a description.

They're grouped into three rarities based on how hard they are to come by:

The easiest to find. Small utility boosts and on-hit effects.

Harder to find. Powerful combat and mining effects.

The rarest and most coveted. These truly change how you play.
