What Does Efficiency Do?
Efficiency dramatically speeds up block breaking for compatible tools: pickaxes, shovels, axes, hoes, and shears. Each tool benefits only when used on its intended material (e.g., an axe is more efficient on trees, not stone). Five levels exist:
- Level I: 25% faster mining.
- Level II: 30% faster mining.
- Level III: 35% faster mining.
- Level IV: 40% faster mining.
- Level V: 45% faster mining (minimal improvement over Level IV).

Enchanting Your Tools with Efficiency
You'll need an enchantment table, crafted with:

- 4 Obsidian
- 1 Book

Obtaining Efficiency V
The enchantment table can't directly create Efficiency V. Combine two identical tools with Efficiency IV on an anvil to achieve this. Alternatively, explore The End dimension's cities for a chance to find pre-enchanted Efficiency V diamond tools.
