Have you ever thought about how useless repairing items on an anvil is? Are you tired of the essentially inevitable grind for the mending enchantment to keep your best gear indestructible? Mending Rework attempts to fix and balance some vanilla mechanics that are considered underpowered or, on the contrary, must-have such as these by adding cool new features and reworking existing ones.
Features
Despite the title, this mod actually adds multiple (related) features:
1. Of course the main idea of the mod is to completely rework the mending enchantment. It now costs 30 levels to apply (but also bypasses the too expensive limit, hurray!), but for good reason: it now allows you to repair any item for 1 xp level with their respective materials on the anvil without even increasing the repair penalty. So get repairin'!
2. Do you miss the old mending enchantment? Well, you're in luck because it just has a different name now: Renewal! It too costs 30 levels to obtain (and also bypasses the too expensive limit, rejoice!). Also, it's way harder to obtain. That's right, it's as simple as defeating the wither and ender dragon multiple times and building a fancy structure (see Images) to flex your power. After that just make sure to place a book and nether star onto the altar in that order. No? Well you can always refer to the config to remove all that hard work I've done.
3. As if the new enchantments weren't enough, any tool repaired on an anvil will now gain a shiny and juicy repair bonus to its damage and dig speed (10% by default, but who am I to tell you that when you have a config at your disposal) which degrades with durability. Also the bonus isn't increased with the renewal enchantment, but only by repairing your stuff.
Hint: Use the anvil more often.
Hint 2: Use this in conjunction with the reworked mending.
Config
You can disable the renewal enchant through the config. This makes it so you can not repair your item with XP alone and you only have the mending changes. You can also configure which of the new enchantments is compatible with each other and infinity. Finally, you can configure the bonus of the repair boost.
Compatibility
Anvil tweaks is known to break the repair bonus feature. Fixed in v2.3 of anvil tweaks.- Any mod that modifies either Enchantment generation, Anvils, Mob/Player heads or Item durability can cause something to break
