All Minecraft Enchantments List: Max Levels and Conflicts
Every Minecraft enchantment in one table for Java and Bedrock 1.21.11: max survival level, which items take it, what it conflicts with, and treasure ones.
Here is every enchantment in Java and Bedrock 1.21.11, with its highest survival level, the gear it can go on and the enchantments it can’t share an item with. Names link to the full page where we have one; the enchantments hub explains the three ways to apply them.
“Table” in the last column means the enchanting table can roll it. “Treasure” means it can’t: you need books from villagers, fishing or chests.

A few rules the table can’t show
The enchanting table tops out at a level-30 offer, and even then some tiers can’t roll the best level. A diamond sword never gets Sharpness V from the table, and stone or diamond tools stop at Efficiency IV. You combine two IVs on an anvil to get V, or buy the book.
On Java, the axe only takes Sharpness, Smite and Bane from a book, not from the table. Bedrock lets the table put them straight on axes. Thorns works the same way: chestplates roll it on the table, other armor pieces need a book on Java but can roll it on Bedrock.
If you want the internal names for commands, use the enchantment ID reference.
Common questions
What is the highest enchantment level in Minecraft?
In survival the highest is level V, on Sharpness, Smite, Bane of Arthropods, Efficiency, Power, Impaling and Density. Anything above that, like Sharpness 1000, needs commands.
How many enchantments are there in Minecraft?
As of 1.21.11 there are 43 in Java Edition and 42 in Bedrock Edition. The difference is Sweeping Edge, which Bedrock doesn't have.
What is the max level on the enchanting table?
Level 30, with 15 bookshelves placed correctly. Level 30 offers still can't give some top levels, such as Sharpness V on a diamond sword, so you finish those on an anvil.
