- Anvil, from book
- ×1 per level
Which items take Fire Protection
Helmets, chestplates, leggings and boots, and books.
None beyond the table items.
The table offers an enchantment only on its primary items; an anvil can add it to anything that can hold it. See every enchantment an item can hold in the max enchantments by item tool.
Conflicts
Fire Protection can’t share an item with Protection, Blast Protection and Projectile Protection. An anvil refuses the combination, and the table never offers them together.
Enchanting table odds
Chance that one offer in the bottom slot (level 30, 15 bookshelves) includes Fire Protection, on a diamond chestplate and on a book.
| Level | Diamond chestplate | Book |
|---|---|---|
| Fire Protection I | — | — |
| Fire Protection II | — | — |
| Fire Protection III | 15.5% | 3.8% |
| Fire Protection IV | 11.5% | 0.6% |
| Any level | 27.0% | 4.4% |

Power window per level
A table roll picks the highest level whose window contains the roll’s modified enchantment level. These are the registry’s min_cost and max_cost, not the level cost shown on the table.
| Level | Min | Max |
|---|---|---|
| Fire Protection I | 10 | 18 |
| Fire Protection II | 18 | 26 |
| Fire Protection III | 26 | 34 |
| Fire Protection IV | 34 | 42 |
Anvil cost
An anvil charges ×2 per level when Fire Protection comes from another item and ×1 per level when it comes from a book, so adding Fire Protection IV from a book costs 4 levels before any prior-work penalty. Work out a full combine in the anvil cost calculator.
Command
Hold the item in your main hand and run this with cheats on. /enchant refuses an item that can’t hold Fire Protection and any level above IV.
