Durability use
Most intended item actions consume durability; special actions such as Lunge can have their own cost.
Unbreaking
Unbreaking does not add durability; it gives each use a chance not to consume it.
Mending
Experience orbs repair one eligible damaged Mending item.
Anvil penalty
Material repair and item combining raise the prior-work penalty and make future operations more expensive.
