            <title>[MC-4577] Unable to combine enchanted books for a higher level enchant.</title>
                <link>https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-4577</link>
                <project id="10400" key="MC">Minecraft: Java Edition</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;#NOTE - THIS ONLY EFFECTS SURVIVAL#&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The anvil will not allow you to combine two enchanted books of the same enchantment in survival.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In the previous snapshot, it was possible to combine enchanted books this way and get a higher level enchantment. (i.e. two sharpness IV books created 1 Sharpness V).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;See picture for more details.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;EDIT-&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This issue relates to &lt;a href=&quot;https://mojang.atlassian.net/browse/MC-4578&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;MC-4578&lt;/a&gt;. Whether it is intended to be able to combine enchanted books or not, the issue described in &lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-4578&quot; title=&quot;Combining certain enchanted books on the anvil causes the second book to be erased.&quot; class=&quot;issue-link&quot; data-issue-key=&quot;MC-4578&quot;&gt;&lt;del&gt;MC-4578&lt;/del&gt;&lt;/a&gt; should not be happening in survival mode.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

                            <comment id="29705" author="jonathanb" created="Thu, 20 Dec 2012 20:40:33 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;FYI: The bug is still present in the 1.4.6 release.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="29465" author="gaztinerag" created="Wed, 19 Dec 2012 13:16:35 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;in 1.4.6 it works, but only in creative mode. And no, it&apos;s not intentional. Because if it was, then what&apos;s the point in combining enchanted books in creative when you can simply access them from the creative menu. Also, you cannot get a higher level enchantment on a book than what&apos;s actually possible to get.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="28433" author="killerfx23" created="Fri, 14 Dec 2012 21:57:35 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;I&apos;d imagine this is intended... I remember reading somewhere (mojang.com or minecraftforum.net) about how you can enchant certain things in survival, but almost everything in creative or something like that... and this may be the fixed version so you cant get level 30 fortune or something like that. xD&lt;br/&gt;
EDIT: what i ment by &quot;So you cant get level 30 fortune&quot; i ment on survival&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="28363" author="minerdomera" created="Fri, 14 Dec 2012 15:55:32 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;Should be fixed for 1.4.6. limits enchanted books quite a bit to not be able to combine them.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="28149" author="ts" created="Thu, 13 Dec 2012 21:28:33 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;I should note this bug only happens in Survival, if you combine the books in Creative it does produce improved enchantments.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="28148" author="ts" created="Thu, 13 Dec 2012 21:26:16 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;You can combine tools in the same manner = 2 Efficiency IV pickaxes can produce an Efficiency V on the anvil.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

                            <comment id="28142" author="darkwolff" created="Thu, 13 Dec 2012 21:07:45 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;In Snapshot 12w49, doing this would level up the enchantments similar to how combining enchanted items work.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So: Sharpness 2 book + Sharpness 2 book = Sharpness 3 book &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;What the reporter seems to be saying is you cannot do this anymore.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="28130" author="kumasasa" created="Thu, 13 Dec 2012 20:41:59 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;Isnt&apos; that pointless ?&lt;br/&gt;
What do you expect to come out when combining two enchantments of the same type and level ?&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
