Description
Enchantment Control is a Forge 1.20.1 utility mod that gives server owners, modpack creators, and advanced players full control over how enchantments behave in Minecraft.
The mod automatically discovers vanilla and modded enchantments through the registry system and lets you configure them individually by full registry ID. You can disable specific enchantments, set custom maximum level caps, and enforce those rules across gameplay systems such as /enchant, enchanting tables, anvils, loot, mob gear, player inventories, and more.
With its in-game OP config interface, built-in filtering and search tools, and server-side config syncing, Enchantment Control makes it easy to rebalance enchantments, remove overpowered combinations, and keep both vanilla and modded gameplay consistent and under control.

- Configurable extraction options such as XP cost, book requirement, extractor consumption, and empty-item destruction

How It Works
Enchantment Control is designed to apply your rules consistently across the game.
If an enchantment is disabled, the mod prevents it from appearing or remaining on items where possible. If an enchantment exceeds its configured maximum level, it is reduced or sanitized according to the mod’s rules. This applies not only to newly created items, but also to existing enchanted gear found in inventories, loot, containers, entities, and other gameplay sources.
This makes the mod especially useful for:
- Modpacks that need stricter enchantment balance
- Servers that want to block specific enchantments
- Packs with multiple mods adding enchantments that need unified limits
Optional Extraction System
The mod also includes an optional enchantment extraction system.
Using the Enchantment Extractor on an anvil, players can extract enchantments from items depending on the configured rules. Server owners and pack creators can decide exactly how this system behaves, including:
- Whether XP is required
- Whether a book is required
- Whether the extractor is consumed
- Whether the source item should be destroyed when emptied
This allows the extraction system to be tuned from convenient utility to strict progression-based balance.
About the Mod
Enchantment Control was made for Forge 1.20.1 to provide a flexible and reliable way to manage enchantments in both vanilla-style and heavily modded environments.
The focus of the mod is stability, compatibility, and server-side enforcement. It is built to safely support changing mod lists, missing registry entries, and enchantment-heavy environments without breaking config data or causing avoidable crashes.
Compatibility
- Supports both vanilla and modded enchantments
- Includes safe optional Apotheosis compatibility through registry-based scanning
