Combining Multiple Protection Enchantments Using an Anvil

Merging Enchanted Books

Place an anvil down and open its interface. Place your target armor piece (such as a helmet, chestplate, leggings, or boots) into the left slot. In the middle slot, place an enchanted book containing any protection enchantment you want to add, such as Fire Protection or Blast Protection.

Because this data pack makes these enchantments fully compatible, the anvil will allow the combination even if your armor already has standard Protection or Projectile Protection. Pay the required experience levels to retrieve your enhanced armor piece.

Stacking Additional Defenses

Repeat this process to add remaining protection types:

1. Place the updated armor piece back into the left slot of the anvil.

2. Insert an enchanted book containing another protection variant (such as Projectile Protection or Fire Protection) into the second slot.

3. Complete the operation once you satisfy the experience level cost.

Unlike vanilla gameplay, where adding a mutually exclusive protection enchantment is rejected by the anvil, the item retains every protection type simultaneously on the same piece.
