FairEnchanting

Requires Fabric - A Forge version is not planned.

In vanilla Minecraft, enchanting items always costs a fixed number of levels, regardless of your current experience level. For example, if you're at level 50 and enchant a sword with a spell requiring level 30 and costing 3 levels, you drop to level 47. However, progressing from level 47 to 50 requires almost three times more experience than from level 27 to 30! This mod solves this issue: it sets the cost of enchantments equal to the number of levels as if you were at the minimum level required for that spell.

Starting from version 1.1.0, the mod also supports the anvil - the cost is calculated as if you were at the required level!

Example: A player at level 30 selects a spell with a minimum requirement of level 30 costing 3 levels, ending up at level 27.

Example: A player at level 50 selects a spell with a minimum requirement of level 7 costing 2 levels, ending up at level 49 (with a small amount of experience remaining).
