In Minecraft Bedrock Edition, transferring enchantments from items to books isn’t a straightforward feature. However, there are workarounds you can use to remove enchantments from an item and later apply them to another item using books and enchantment mechanics. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this.
Understanding Enchantments in Bedrock Edition
Before diving into the methods, it’s important to understand how enchantments work in Bedrock Edition:
- Enchanted Items: You can enchant tools, weapons, armor, and books using an enchantment table or an anvil with enchanted books.
- Books: Enchanted books allow you to store enchantments and later transfer them to other items using an anvil.
- Grinding: Using a grindstone, you can remove enchantments from an item but cannot directly transfer them onto a book in Bedrock Edition.
Necessary Tools and Materials
To complete the process of removing and transferring enchantments, you will need the following items:
- Grindstone – To remove enchantments from the item.
- Enchantment Table – To enchant books.
- Anvil – To combine enchantments and transfer them to other items.
- Books – To store new enchantments.
- Lapis Lazuli – For enchanting books.
- Experience Points (XP) – Required for using the enchantment table and anvil.
Step-by-Step Guide to Removing Enchantments from Items
Step 1: Craft a Grindstone
To remove enchantments, you’ll need a grindstone. Here’s how to craft one:
1. Open the crafting table.
2. Place the stone slab in the middle slot, the wooden planks in the bottom left and bottom right slots, and the sticks in the top left and top right slots.
3. Take the grindstone and place it in your world.
Step 2: Place the Item in the Grindstone
1. Right-click (or press the appropriate button for your platform) on the grindstone.
2. Place the enchanted item into one of the grindstone slots.
3. The grindstone will show the enchantments that can be removed. When you take the item out, the enchantments will be erased, and you will receive experience points in return.
Note: This step will only remove the enchantments from the item but will not transfer them to a book. You will lose the enchantments, and you cannot retrieve them.
Enchanting Books with New Enchantments
Step 1: Prepare an Enchantment Table
To craft an enchantment table, you’ll need the following:
1. Open the crafting table.
2. Place the obsidian blocks in a “T” shape (3 on the bottom row, 1 in the middle of the middle row).
3. Place the diamonds on either side of the middle row.
4. Put the book at the top middle slot.
5. Collect the enchantment table and place it in your world.
Step 2: Enchant Books
1. Gather some Lapis Lazuli and books.
2. Right-click the enchantment table and place the book in the item slot.
3. Place 1-3 pieces of Lapis Lazuli in the table’s slots.
4. Choose one of the available enchantments to apply to the book. The level of enchantments available depends on your experience level and the number of bookshelves surrounding the table.
5. Take the enchanted book out of the slot.
Tip: If you are looking for a specific enchantment, you might need to enchant several books until you get the one you want. Each enchantment is random.
Transferring Enchantments from Books to Items Using An Anvil
Step 1: Craft an Anvil
To make an anvil, you will need the following:
1. Open the crafting table.
2. Place the three iron blocks in the top row.
3. Place the iron ingots in all three slots of the bottom row and the middle slot of the middle row.
4. Collect the anvil and place it in your world.
Step 2: Use the Anvil to Transfer the Enchantment
1. Right-click the anvil to open its interface.
2. Place the item you want to enchant in the first slot.
3. Place the enchanted book in the second slot.
4. The anvil will display the enchantment that will be applied to the item and the XP cost.
5. If you have enough XP, take the newly enchanted item from the output slot.
Troubleshooting and Tips
- Grindstone Limitations: You cannot transfer enchantments directly from items to books using a grindstone in Bedrock Edition. The grindstone will only erase enchantments, providing you with XP.
- Randomized Enchantments: Enchanting books at the enchantment table is a game of chance. Use multiple books and combine enchanted books at an anvil if needed.
- Cost of Combining Enchantments: Every time you use an anvil to combine enchantments, it costs experience points. Additionally, the more you use an anvil, the higher the XP cost becomes.
- Book Shelves Increase Enchantment Levels: Surround your enchantment table with bookshelves to unlock higher-level enchantments. Place bookshelves one block away from the enchantment table on the same level to increase enchantment power.
Summary
While Minecraft Bedrock Edition does not allow direct transfer of enchantments from items to books, you can work around this limitation by following these steps:
- Remove enchantments from an item using a grindstone to get XP.
- Enchant books using an enchantment table to store enchantments for later use.
- Transfer enchantments from books to items using an anvil.
This method gives you more control over enchantments and allows you to customize your tools, weapons, and armor with the enchantments of your choice. Thanks for visiting Minedit
