Let’s start by understanding enchantment and enchanted tools. Please make sure that you have the latest version of Minecraft, as we will talk about the latest version of enchanted methods and tools. The most recent version is “V 1.19 – The Wild Update,” which was released on June 7, 2022.
What are enchantment tools?
Enchanted tools are ordinary tools that have been enchanted to make them more useful, powerful, and stronger than before, and they may even become immortal! Understanding enchantments in Minecraft adds an exciting layer to the game, prompting exploration and creativity. It’s like crafting personalized books for kids within the virtual world, where each enchantment becomes a unique chapter, enhancing the tools and making the gameplay more engaging and immersive.
There are two ways to enchant your tools:
- Using an enchanted table (which is hard to operate).
- Using an anvil and enchanted books
In this blog, we will talk about the anvil enchantment methods.
There are many types of enchantment books in Minecraft; each one has its own level and unique properties that make a difference for the tools you have, and each tool can have one or more enchantment books. We will see how this is done, step by step.
After you make the changes to your armor and weapons, you will see how useful the enchanting things are! As mining blocks and other items from the game or killing other mobs in the game will be easier for you, and your armors will give you extra protection while being attacked,
You cannot add all the enchantment books for one item.
Which tools are able to be enchanted?
In Minecraft, we have many tools and weapons, like swords, bows, pickaxes, axes, shovels, helmets, body armor, leggings, boots, etc. All of these tools are able to be enchanted into a better version that is more powerful and more useful for having an easy game. In this blog, we will talk about armor enchantment and how it works! Understanding enchantments in Minecraft can be like unlocking new levels in learning games for kids, turning the game into an educational journey where each tool or piece of armor becomes a lesson in strategy and improvement.
Each armor has its own properties for the enchantment, and the armors are:
- Helmets
- Chestplates
- Leggings
- Boots
These are the armors in Minecraft; each one of them has a level of power to protect the player, and in this photo, we put them from the lowest to the highest level of power, from left to right.
How do I turn normal armor into enchanted armor?
First of all, we need an anvil and enchanted books. We can craft an anvil using 4 iron ingots and 3 iron blocks! Each iron block requires 9 iron ingots, so 3 * 9 = 27 + 4 = 31 iron ingots are required to make an anvil.
So how do you make iron ingots? To begin, make a stone pickaxe, then go deep into caves to find iron in the walls, collect the irons, place them in the furnace, and use coal or wood to light it.
Then we make the 3 iron blocks after creating 31 iron ingots:
After the creation of the three iron blocks, you have to get another four iron ingots to create the anvil:
For the enchanted books, you can find them in many locations inside chests randomly; these locations are:
- Jungle temples
- Strongholds
- Dungeons
- Mineshafts
- Desert temples
- Pillager outposts
- Underwater ruins
And if you play on the hardest level, you can find enchanted books by fishing or killing mobs, which you can then trade with the librarian villager.
It is possible to create your own enchanted books.
After you get your enchanted books and the armor that you wish to enchant, you have to press on the anvil and put your armor like a helmet, chestplates, or leggings, or the enchanted book that you found on the anvil, and press on the button.
The enchantment costs experience, so make sure you have it too to make this happen. You can see your experience by looking at the green bar above your tool inventory.
Now let us talk about the types of enchantment books and the best-enchanted level for each armor.
This is the highest level for each armor given below:
Helmets:

Exploring the mechanics of enchantments can be akin to flipping through the pages of an intriguing book for kids, each enchantment presenting a new chapter in the Minecraft adventure.
