EnchantLimitRemover
A lightweight, configurable Minecraft plugin that lifts vanilla enchantment
level caps — while keeping you in full control of who can go how far.
Key Features
- Enchant far beyond vanilla caps, with a hard safety ceiling you set
- Per-rank limits through
elr.level.<n>permissions - Per-item, per-enchantment limits (a netherite sword can allow more than a
diamond one) - Limits enforced everywhere: commands, enchanting table, anvil, item pickup,
and on join - Block specific enchantments server-wide, with a bypass permission
- Optional command cooldowns
- Fully customisable messages
- Tab completion on every argument
- Debug mode for troubleshooting
Commands
All commands require elr.admin. Aliases: /elr, /elre, /enchantlimit
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
/elrenchant add <enchant> <level> | Add an enchantment to the held item |
/elrenchant remove <enchant> | Remove one enchantment |
/elrenchant clear | Remove every enchantment from the held item |
/elrenchant list | List all enchantments with your personal cap |
/elrenchant info | Show the held item's enchantments and your limits |
