How to Check if an Enchantment Is at Maximum Level

Inspecting Item Tooltips

Open your inventory or any storage container such as a chest or barrel, and hover your cursor over an enchanted tool or piece of armor. Look closely at the list of enchantments displayed in the item's tooltip.

When a specific enchantment has reached the highest level allowed by vanilla Minecraft, this mod places a visual indicator directly next to that enchantment in the tooltip. By default, this indicator appears as a golden star. If an enchantment does not have the golden star next to it, that specific enchantment is still below its level cap and can be upgraded further.

Reading Multi-Enchantment Gear

Items carrying several enchantments at once display indicators individually next to each capped enchantment rather than a single mark for the entire item:

1. Hover over your multi-enchanted sword, pickaxe, or armor piece.

2. Check each enchantment line separately. For example, an enchantment like Mending or Infinity naturally caps at level I, so it will immediately display the golden star, while an accompanying Sharpness III or Efficiency III line on the same tool will remain unmarked.

3. Use the unmarked lines to see at a glance which enchantments still need books or duplicate gear to reach their cap, saving you a trip to an anvil just to test whether an upgrade is allowed.
