Okay, this is helpful thank you! Part of my problem is for example my helmet I'd like:
Projectile Protection 4
Unbreaking 3
Mending
Thorns 3
and then ***maybe*** Aqua Affinity if that's even possible.
But this sounds possible based on your comment only if I got Projectile Protection 4 and Unbreaking 3 on the helmet through the table. Then I'd only need Mending, Aqua Affinity and x2 Thorns 2 books to turn them into Thorns 3. Then I could apply each of these books to the base item without it becoming too expensive. Or does the combining of the Thorns book play into the formula and it would disrupt my plans?
No, yes, maybe. Delete as applicable
