Science FTW - Minecraft Enchanting Probabilities

Minecraft Science FTW! - Minecraft Enchanting Guide

Don't let the 20 minutes scare you, there's an annotations menu at 01:19 so you can skip around to the bits you're interested in.

We cover minecraft enchanting of weapons and items and all things in between. This includes a minecraft enchanting guide to play the odds towards getting intended enchantments.

I told you guys I would crack the code... but someone beat me to it. Luckily, he gave me permission to do an in-depth video on the data so we take a look at everything that happens and is taken into account when you want to enchant an item (including how to game the system to ensure you get an intended enchantment).

its a game.

[MrPixelTech]

@holyhelo5speak no, it's a randomly assigned outcome ;) Games generally let the player dictate what the result will be within reason :)

[Callebu]

k one word

wtf

[MrPixelTech]

@Callebu Technically that's 3 words :P

[gthkeno]

I highly doubt that going up in level makes it harder to, as you said going from 0 to 1 is 7xp then 1 to 2 is 14? if anything it means its 14 total. I tested this and even at level 97 my level went up the same speed as a level 1.

[MrPixelTech]

@gthkeno My use of the word "difficulty" was in reference to a level's relative difficulty based on how much time is spent getting to it. Being as all the mobs are just as difficult at level 1 as they are at level 100, I, of course, didn't mean it the way you interpreted it. However, at level 97, if you buy a level 50 enchantment and a level 47 enchantment, it will have taken you longer to earn enough XP to buy those 2 enchantments than to have bought them separately.

tl;dr

[nonfaker]

Thanks very much for these hints!

i pretty much understud everything, good explained, good examples!

thanks a lot, again!

[eah2119]

@Vladislak Yeah, there's a book right on the freaking table! Why are we so illiterate??!!

[eah2119]

@xXGamersTheoryXx I'm looking for the same thing. The wiki's too ambiguous to calculate exact probabilities. I need to be an expert at reading source code or something.

[iGameBeta]

can some one work out what is the best level to enchant a diamond pick and get fortune III \?

[Vladislak]

Gah, I hate the enchanting system in Minecraft. I just grinded non-stop fighting Blazes at a spawner up to level 38 in hopes of enchanting my diamond pick with silk touch. I got Efficiency IV and Unbreaking III, which is great, but I'd give it up three times over if I could just get a silk touch pick.

If I spend 3 hours grinding I should be able to pick what enchantment I get (within reason).

I've enchanted countless items and that ONE enchantment continues to elude me. D:

[Asalraalaikboom]

this video helped me but the annoying music in the background makes it hard to listen to you D:

[jamesusespivot]

At 5:26 you said something confusing and sounded confused so to clear it up. Echantability/2 is just the most common number to pick from 0-echantibility.

What english word is for the Fire aspect??
