Miscellaneous Equipment

Sortilege adds several tools and pieces of equipment outside its staff and potion systems.

Witch Hat

The Witch Hat is a highly enchantable helmet obtained from Witches.

Obtaining the hat

A Witch killed by a player has a configurable chance to drop a damaged Witch Hat.

The default chance is 10%.

The dropped hat receives a random amount of durability damage, so most recovered hats will need repair.

Experience bonus

While the Witch Hat is worn, creatures killed by the player drop additional experience.

The default bonus is:

+3 XP points per kill

This is a flat number of XP points, not three experience levels.

drop_chance Chance from 0.0 to 1.0 for a player-killed Witch to drop the hat.

Lapis Shield

The Lapis Shield is a passive offhand shield.

Rather than requiring the player to raise it manually, it automatically blocks an incoming frontal attack whenever it is ready.

After a successful block, the shield enters a cooldown.

Default properties

Property Value
Durability 152
Cooldown 80 ticks
Cooldown in seconds 4 seconds
Repair material Lapis Lazuli

The shield visibly glows while it is ready. Its added glow disappears during the cooldown.

Damage of at least 3 points can damage the shield after a successful block. The durability loss increases with the strength of the blocked hit.

Crafting

Craft a Lapis Shield by surrounding any item in the conventional c:shields tag with Lapis Lazuli:

    }
  }
}
Field Description

durability Maximum durability of newly created Lapis Shields.
cooldown Ticks between automatic blocks. There are 20 ticks in one second.

Knowledge Book

The Knowledge Book records enchantments discovered from loot.

When enchantment knowledge is enabled, an Enchanting Table can only offer enchantments the player has discovered or supplied through a catalyst. Holding an authored Knowledge Book in the inventory makes its recorded enchantments available.

Crafting

The recipe is shapeless:

  • 1 Book
  • 2 Lapis Lazuli
  • 1 Glow Ink Sac

A newly crafted Knowledge Book records its creator as an author.

Learning enchantments

Place a Knowledge Book and an enchanted loot item into a Grindstone.

When the item contains an enchantment that can be learned, the Grindstone output is an updated copy of the Knowledge Book containing that knowledge.

The book records enchantment levels individually. Finding a stronger version of an enchantment can therefore improve the level known by the book.

Merging books

Two Knowledge Books can be placed together in a Grindstone.

The output combines the knowledge contained in both books.

Authorship

A Knowledge Book may be opened and used by:

  • One of its recorded authors.
  • A player in Creative Mode.
  • Any player, when the book has no recorded author.

A player who is not an author receives a warning when attempting to open the book.

Using stored knowledge

Keep an authored Knowledge Book anywhere in the player's inventory while using an Enchanting Table.

The book contributes every enchantment and level it has learned to that player's available enchantment knowledge.

Multiple books may be carried, allowing their knowledge to be combined without permanently merging them.

Book interface and tooltip

Using the Knowledge Book opens its interface.

The tooltip displays:

  • Its authors.
  • Its percentage completion.
  • A description of how to learn and use enchantments.

Completion is measured against the total maximum levels of every registered enchantment.

Configuration

{
  "enchanting": {
    "enchanting_table": {
      "knowledge": {
        "enable": true,
        "show_in_tooltip": true
      }
    }
  }
}
Field Description
enable Enables enchantment knowledge and registers the Knowledge Book.
show_in_tooltip Marks enchanted loot that contains knowledge the player may learn.

Limitite

Limitite is used to increase an item's enchantment slots.

Its complete mechanics and configuration are documented on the Enchantment Limits page.
