Best uses
Invaluable for sneaking through Ancient Cities or other areas where crouch-movement matters. Level III brings sneaking speed close to normal walking speed, making it practical for building or stealth navigation. Apply via anvil with an enchanted book — it cannot be applied from an enchanting table.
