gollark: IKR, right? Give everyone infinite diamonds!!!!
gollark: And the books I turned into plates (those are consumed normally, I know, but you usually get multiple uses out of the plates) are kind of expensive.
gollark: If so, some warning would have been nice since those cost 60 and 40 XP levels each.
gollark: <@478798120650670091> Did you adjust the bibliocraft config or something? I made enchanted plates for a looting III/protection IV and unbreaking III book, and then made a single book from each, and it seems to have consumed them?
gollark: Or just sane block values.
