Now with Modded Items & Enchantments support!

!Anvil Enchantment Ordering Guide

FEATURES

In-Game Panel	Opens from a guide button on the anvil
Item & Enchantment Picker	Choose your item type and select exactly which enchantments and levels you want
Two Optimization Modes	Optimize for Least XP/Levels or Least Prior Work Penalty, your choice
Incompatibility Handling	Mutually exclusive enchants (e.g. Sharpness/Smite/Bane, etc.) are automatically grouped with prev/next cycling so you never select a conflicting combination
Inventory Matching	If you already have a matching item in your inventory (correct type, exact enchantments, exact prior work penalty), the frame displays your actual item instead of a generic icon
Modded Items	Items sharing the same enchantments are grouped into a single button with a cycling icon
Modded Enchantments	Modded enchant names are highlighted in cyan when selected

HOW TO USE

• Open any Anvil.
• Click the guide button on the left side of the anvil GUI to open the panel.
• Phase 1: Select your item type from the grid. Use the toggle at the bottom to switch between optimization modes.
• Phase 2: Click the level buttons for each enchantment you want, then click Calculate.
• Phase 3: Read the merge tree from top to bottom. Each step tells you exactly which two items to combine and what it will cost.
• Click the back arrow at any phase to go back, or click the guide button again to close the panel.

CONFIGURATION

If you have Mod Menu installed, you can customize your experience:

Auto-Detect Item	When enabled, placing an item in the anvil's left slot automatically advances the panel to Phase 2 with that item pre-selected
Phase 2 Auto-Fill Mode (for Phase 2)	Max Levels	Automatically selects the maximum level for every applicable enchantment
	From Inventory	Scans your inventory for enchanted books and pre-selects the highest level found for each enchantment
Allow Incompatible Enchantments (for Phase 2)	When enabled, mutually exclusive enchantments each get their own independent row and can all be selected simultaneously
View Mode (for Phase 3)	Tree View	A pannable merge tree showing every step in the optimal order. Hover any node to see its enchantments, merge cost, prior work penalty, and total cost on the final node
	List View	A clean scrollable numbered list showing each merge step with its enchantments, cost, and prior work penalty
Show Mod Button in Phase 1	When enabled, a button appears in Phase 1 to switch between vanilla and modded items
Show Mod Button in Phase 2	When enabled, a button appears in Phase 2 to show or hide modded enchantments
