Strangely enough, after dealing in ebooks for quite some time, I find that the one I need the most and have one HECK of a time getting with any regularity is Unbreaking III. It is always just taken for granted, yet it is the one ebook I refuse to sell. I'll even sell you a Thorns III or a Silk Touch or an Efficiency V but NOT Unbreaking III. Efficiency V is a pain to make, but (at least in the past) it was very doable at a reasonable price. Unbreaking III is the very devil to get and unreliable to create. I suppose Eff V or Silktouch are the most popular, but if you have either or both of those on a tool, just try to find an Unbreaking III book to combo with it! I have spent more XP combining tool/tool (which costs SO much more than tool/book) to put Unbreaking III on equipment - too much, actually.
Fortune III/II is another great enchantment to get on diamond tools so you can get more diamonds/redstone for more profit. I find it popular among me and other people.
I would agree with the unbr3 comment, that book is the most valuable. It goes on anything and you want it on everything. Its not a default on the star tools and if your missing it on any item you want it.
I prefer no armor enchants because the colors affect my majestic green shirt blue pants combo. But I do love me a silk touch eff4 unb 3 pick axe and unb 3 is rare? I have like 3 or 4 of those books.
Book, maybe. But after enchanting 300 tools I noticed that more than 200 of them had unbreaking 3 on them. From which about a third had only unbreaking 3 on it.
Its still the book that I have the least of (1) currently and I have a number of items that could do with it. Such as shears and swords but then my armoury is several updates old now.
3 out of 27 books were unbreaking 3. EDIT: more tests. 7 out 0f 72 books. that's little over 1 in 10 books being unbreaking 3. While with just tools and armour and such, 2 out of 9 items had only unbreaking 3 on it. where 2 out 5 items had unbreaking 3 in combination with other enchants.
I voted for silk touch over Eff5 because silk touch accomplishes things that can't be done otherwise.
