What Efficiency Does
Efficiency enhances the speed of block breaking for five tool types: shears, pickaxes, shovels, axes, and hoes. The effect is specific to the tool's intended material; an axe is more efficient on wood, not stone.
Efficiency has five levels:
- Level I: 25% increased speed
- Level II: 30% increased speed
- Level III: 35% increased speed
- Level IV: 40% increased speed
- Level V: 45% increased speed (minimal improvement over Level IV)

- 4 Obsidian
- 1 Book

Obtaining Efficiency V
Enchantment tables cannot directly create Efficiency V on stone or diamond tools. Combine two identical tools with Efficiency IV on an anvil to achieve Efficiency V. Alternatively, experienced players might find Efficiency V diamond tools in End cities.
