About this Mod

Enchantment Tables

Additions:

Shears can now receive Efficiency and Unbreaking
- about 30% chance for eff 4 + unb 3, about 40% chance for eff 3 + unb 3 with level 30 enchant
Shields can now receive Unbreaking
- will often give unbreaking 2, sometimes unbreaking 3 with level 30 enchant

Anvils

Anvil behavior is unchanged.

Shears can still receive Efficiency, Unbreaking, Mending, Curse of Vanishing, and Silk Touch
- Silk Touch is buggy and weird, no special effect on shears
Sheilds can still receive Unbreaking, Mending, and Curse of Vanishing

Issues and concerns

If I missed any unenchantable but still anvil-able items or you have concerns about the enchantment levels or balance, open an issue on my Github repository
