As the title states, any custom enchantment I create can be applied to any sort of gear even if its not compatible with the enchant.

Heres my basic enchantment class

public class OverloadEnchantment extends Enchantment {

    public OverloadEnchantment(EquipmentSlot[] slots) {
        super(Rarity.RARE, EnchantmentCategory.ARMOR, slots);
    }

    @Override
    public int getMinCost(int p_44679_) {
        return 15;
    }

    @Override
    public int getMaxCost(int p_44691_) {
        return 30;
    }

    @Override
    public int getMaxLevel() {
        return 5;
    }
}

it cannot be an enchantment roll in the enchanting table for regular weapons(since its an armor mod) nor can it be applied to these weapons via /enchant command. However if I grab an overload book and apply it to a sword in an anvil, it will apply the enchantment to the sword. This goes for all custom enchantments I create whether or not designed for armor or for weapons/tools.

okay, what other methods exist in Enchantment class?

perchance, a few may return a boolean result.

Yes there is the method canEnchant(ItemStack item) which returns a boolean but I have no clue how to use it as it crashes when i try to apply the enchantment to an item in the anvil. So its going in the right direction but its causing a crash.

Heres the code I used

@Override
    public boolean canEnchant(ItemStack item) {
        if(item.getItem().equals(Items.DIAMOND_SWORD)){
            return false;
        }

        return true;
    }
