Enchanting
Vanilla Enchanting is a well documented subject at this point, so we won't cover directly. However, several mods in the pack do offer enhanced or alternate means of enchanting which are worth pointing out.
Let's go over them.
Apotheosis heavily tweaks the concepts of Vanilla enchanting, while bringing some extra utility to the process.
The first time you place down a Vanilla Enchanting Table, you may notice things are... changed. Eterna? Quanta? Arcana? What are these? Well, think of them as modifiers to your enchanting.
Eterna increases the basic 'level' of enchanting. Where Vanilla stops at level 30, Apotheosis and it's special bookshelves allow us to go up to level 100, making it possible to reach much higher levels with certain enchants, such as Looting and Fortune. Generally speaking more Eterna is better, but it may become impossible to obtain some enchants at high levels. So playing around with the level of the table can be worthwhile.
Quanta is basically a measure of randomness in the enchanting process. Once you've clicked the enchant you want to apply from the list, it will kick into action, either raising or lowering the level of the enchant. This may sound bad but it gives you a chance at getting much higher levels than are otherwise obtainable directly from the Enchanting Table.
Arcana modifies your ability to get certain rare enchantments. With none, it will be entirely impossible to get rare enchants. While at high levels it flips and becomes impossible to get some common enchants. Further, at 25% and 75% it guarantees an extra enchant. So you'll always get three enchants with 75% or higher.
Getting all of these at the levels you desire can be a bit of a puzzle, since each bookshelf has it's own unique set of stats. Some grant bonuses, while others lower the stats. These can all be seen on the tooltip, however. Eterna maxes out at 50 points and both Quanta and Arcana max at 100 percentage points. Furthermore, each bookshelf will have a limit on Eterna. For example, Hellshelves contribute 1.5 Eterna per shelf, but cannot contribute beyond 22.5. So having more than 15 won't have any impact. But adding a single End Shelf will stack on top of that and contribute up to it's limit of 40.
