Inscribe

Move enchantments onto books and other gear

Choose which enchantments to take off your gear and put them on a book, then click that book onto other gear. You set the price in XP or using Vault.

Extract onto a book

Right-click an enchanted item with a book in your inventory.

• Choose the enchantments to extract
• Configure individual costs for each enchantment
• Optional custom book name and lore

Apply a book

Pick up an enchanted book and right-click your gear.

• Pick which enchantments to apply
• Works with any enchanted book
• A book at the item's level raises it by one like an anvil
• Enchantments that don't fit stay on the book
• Levels above the vanilla maximum do not apply unless you allow them

Prices

By default, each extracted enchantment costs 100 XP points and applying a book is free.

• Pay in XP points or Vault money
• Set a price for each enchantment
• Optionally multiply the price by the level

Settings

• /inscribe config edits every setting in game
• Turn off any enchantment; both curses are off by default
• Limit which items can be used

Getting started

1. Put Inscribe.jar in plugins/ and restart. The first start downloads its libraries.
2. For money prices, install Vault and an economy plugin, then set the currency to MONEY in /inscribe config.
3. Hold a book on your cursor and right-click an enchanted item in your inventory.

• Limits Only items in your main inventory or hotbar work, not worn armor or your off hand, and you need an empty slot for the new book. On Folia, money prices stay off until you turn them on in the settings, since many economy plugins don't support Folia.
