✨ Enchanting Guide
Master the art of pan enchantments in Prospecting! Learn about enchantment types, powerful combinations, stat optimization, and advanced strategies to maximize your mining efficiency.
🎭 Understanding Enchantments
Enchantments are magical enhancements that can be applied to your pans to significantly boost their effectiveness. Each enchantment provides specific stat bonuses that improve different aspects of prospecting, from finding rare minerals to increasing your mining speed.
💡 Why Enchant?
A properly enchanted pan can be 3-5 times more effective than an unenchanted one. Enchantments are essential for accessing high-tier areas and competing with advanced players.
🔮 Enchantment Mechanics
- Enchantment Slots: Each pan has a limited number of enchantment slots (1-5 depending on rarity)
- Enchantment Levels: Most enchantments have multiple levels (I, II, III, IV, V)
- Rarity System: Enchantments come in six rarities with increasing power
- Combination Effects: Certain enchantment combinations provide bonus synergy effects
- Rerolling: You can reroll enchantments using specific materials
🏆 Enchantment Types & Effects
Understanding each enchantment type is crucial for building the perfect setup for your playstyle:
⚠️ Enchantment Priority
For beginners: Start with Efficiency and Fortune. For advanced players: Focus on Treasure Hunter and Midas Touch combinations.
⚔️ Powerful Enchantment Combinations
Certain enchantment combinations provide synergy bonuses that make them more powerful together than individually:
| Combination Name | Enchantments | Synergy Effect | Rating | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Speed Demon | Efficiency V + Unbreaking III | +25% additional mining speed | Fast farming | |
| Golden Touch | Fortune IV + Midas Touch II | +50% coin bonus on rare finds | Profit maximization | |
| Treasure Master | Treasure Hunter III + Fortune V | +10% chance for double drops | Legendary hunting | |
| Endurance Build | Unbreaking III + Phoenix I | +200% durability bonus | Long sessions | |
| Balanced Power | Efficiency III + Fortune III + Unbreaking II | +15% to all stats | All-around play | |
| Lucky Strike | Fortune V + Treasure Hunter II | Critical hits give 3x rewards | RNG dependent |
🎯 Combination Strategy
Build combinations gradually. Start with 2-enchantment combos and work your way up to 3-5 enchantment synergies as you acquire better pans.

💰 Budget Optimization
Maximizing enchantment effectiveness on a limited budget:
- Start with Efficiency: Cheapest enchantment with immediate visible benefits
- Prioritize Level III: Best cost-to-benefit ratio for most enchantments
- Avoid Level V early: Exponentially more expensive with diminishing returns
- Focus on 2-3 enchantments: Better to have strong focused builds than weak spread
🎯 Area-Specific Builds
Optimize your enchantments for different mining areas:
- Beginner Areas: Efficiency + Unbreaking for fast, sustainable farming
- Mid-Tier Areas: Fortune + Efficiency for balanced rare find progression
- High-Tier Areas: Treasure Hunter + Midas Touch for maximum profit
- Event Areas: Fortune + Phoenix for rare event mineral hunting
🔄 Rerolling Strategy
When and how to reroll enchantments effectively:
- Only reroll on high-tier pans: Don't waste materials on starter equipment
- Set a budget limit: Decide maximum reroll attempts before starting
- Target synergies: Aim for known powerful combinations
- Save perfect rolls: Keep spare enchanted pans for different situations
🏆 Pro Strategy
Advanced players often maintain 3 different enchanted pans: one for speed farming, one for rare hunting, and one for special events.
❌ Common Enchanting Mistakes
- Enchanting Low-Tier Pans: Only enchant pans you plan to use long-term
- Ignoring Synergies: Random enchantments are much less effective than planned combinations
- Over-investing in Level V: Often Level III-IV provides better value
- Not Planning Ahead: Consider your long-term goals before enchanting
- Focusing Only on Rarity: Sometimes multiple common enchantments beat one rare
- Forgetting Durability: High-level pans are expensive to replace frequently
💸 Expensive Mistake
Never enchant a pan without checking if it has enough slots for your planned combination. You can't add slots to existing pans!
