How to get enchantments

Every path — enchant table, structure loot, librarian trades, anvil-combine. Where the best enchants come from.

There are five main ways to acquire enchantments on Sunday Market. Each path favors different rarity tiers and different enchantment types.

1. Enchanting tables

The default vanilla path, but on Sunday Market with a twist: bookshelves count by what's inside them.

Setup

Place an enchanting table
Surround with 15 bookshelves in a vanilla pattern (one block away on each side, at the same level and one above)
This gives you the vanilla bonus — level 30 enchants available

Boost it further

Fill bookshelves with enchanted books (any enchant type)
The shelves still count for vanilla mechanics, plus the books inside provide an additional boost
Top-tier setup with all shelves stacked with high-tier enchanted books gives a substantial uplift to the quality of enchantments rolled

What appears

Common to uncommon custom enchants appear at level 15+
Rare and epic custom enchants are possible but unlikely at lower levels
Mythic enchants almost never appear in tables — find them elsewhere

Tips

Keep a stash of books for re-enchanting — you'll burn through XP
Use a sacrificial sword/pick for "consume the curse roll" if a curse appears in the preview
The enchant table preview shows you ONE of the enchants you'll get; the others are random

2. Structure loot

The custom worldgen on Sunday Market has tier-stratified structures with scaled loot tables:

Tier	Where to find	What you'll get
1	Surface ruins, small dungeons	Common enchanted books, basic gear
2	Mid-depth structures, moderate dungeons	Uncommon enchants, mid-tier loot
3	Deep structures, capital dungeons	Rare enchants, high-tier loot
4	Boss rooms in capital dungeons	Epic enchants, top-tier loot
5	Special / unique structures	Mythic enchants, signature items

The Sunday Market signature Last Call enchantment book appears in tier 3+ chests with moderate odds. Other epics drop similarly.

See Worldgen → Structures for what to look for.

3. Librarian trades

Vanilla librarian villagers trade enchanted books. On Sunday Market:

Common villager — common to uncommon enchants
Apprentice — uncommon
Journeyman — rare possible
Expert — rare to epic
Master — epic to mythic possible

A master-tier librarian is a long-term investment — you have to grind a single villager's trades through the level progression by accepting their offers. Once they're master-tier, they have a chance to offer top-tier custom enchanted books.

Some players keep a "librarian library" — a row of trading-station villagers all leveled to master, each rolled until their trade includes a desired enchant. Ultimate enchant farm.

4. Anvil-combine

Combine two of the same enchanted book → one book at the next level.

2× Last Call I → 1× Last Call II
2× Last Call II → 1× Last Call III
2× any-enchant I → 1× any-enchant II (where the enchant has level II)

Anvil-combine works the same for custom enchants as for vanilla. The XP cost scales with item enchantment count and the cumulative cost of previous repairs.

For high-level enchants, expect significant XP costs — a Last Call III book typically requires multiple anvil operations from level I sources.

Try enchant tables a few times when you have spare XP
Run dungeons looking for tier 3+ chests
Check player shops for books
As a backup, level a librarian to master and roll for Last Call

Want Telekinesis (mining QoL)?

Common-tier; enchant tables roll it often
Structure chests have it frequently
Librarians of any tier can offer it

Want Soulbound (item protection)?

Rare-tier; enchant tables rarely
Structure chests in capitals
Master librarian
Anvil-combine if you find a level I book

Want a curse (collecting / theme)?

Enchant tables occasionally roll them
Structure loot has cursed books in tier 1+
Player shops sometimes sell them as novelty items

Maintenance — keep your enchanted gear alive

Enchanted gear breaks. To preserve:

Mending — vanilla, repairs items via XP gained
Repairing — custom enchant, slow auto-repair while carrying
Anvil repairs — XP cost per repair

A piece of gear with both Mending and Repairing rarely needs anvil repairs.
