FAQ
What are the best enchantments for a sword?
Sharpness V, Looting III, Unbreaking III, Mending, Fire Aspect II and Sweeping Edge III. Note Sharpness, Smite and Bane of Arthropods conflict — pick only one (Sharpness for general use).
Which enchantments conflict in Minecraft?
The big ones: Protection / Fire / Blast / Projectile Protection (pick one); Sharpness / Smite / Bane of Arthropods (pick one); Silk Touch vs Fortune; Infinity vs Mending; Multishot vs Piercing; Depth Strider vs Frost Walker; Riptide vs Loyalty/Channeling. The tool greys out conflicting options automatically.
What is the max enchantment level?
It depends on the enchantment — e.g. Sharpness, Efficiency, Power and Protection max at level V, while Silk Touch, Mending, Flame and Infinity are level I only.
Can I put Mending and Infinity on the same bow?
No — Infinity and Mending are mutually exclusive in Java Edition. Most players choose Mending so the bow repairs itself; bring a stack of arrows.
