Enchantment Table

The Enchantment Table is an interactive block that was added in Update 0.12.1. They are used to enchant (imbue special power to) items, including weapons, books, tools, and armor.

Crafting

 * 4 Obsidian + 2 Diamonds + 1 Book => 1 Enchantment Table

Interface
The Enchanting Table interface has a slot to insert the item  that the player wishes to enchant, and one to insert the required Lapis Lazuli. Once added, there will be 3 different enchantments presented, each requiring a specific amount of Experience and Lapis Lazuli. Near the bottom of the interface, there is a preview of an enchantment which will be included.

If the player has enough experience, he/she can select the option of their choice, and the item will be enchanted.

Trivia

 * The higher the level of an enchantment, the higher the likelihood of 1 or more enchantments being cast onto the item in addition when enchanting.
 * Exclusive Feature : Enchantment Table books have luminosity.
 * Tommaso stated that this was a bug, but he decided to keep it.
 * Enchantment tables are more effective when surrounded by bookshelves, as they allow the player to get better enchantments.
 * A minimum of 15 bookshelves are required in order to achieve the highest enchantments possible.
 * There is no way to control the enchantment, as the effect given will be random.


 * An Enchantment Table is not the full height of a block; it is only 12/16 of a block, like Grass Paths and End Portal Frames.


 * If the player destroys/adds bookshelves at the enchanting table, the table will give a new set of possible enchantments.
 * If the bookshelves are returned to their original number without enchanting any item will revert it back to the first set of possible enchantments.
 * This is also applied to adding torches on bookshelves as torches count as a block that is between the table and the bookshelf.
 * The only other way to change the available enchantments for an item is to first enchant a different item, modifying the enchantments for the previous item.
