Better Trial Loot

by daenvil

Better Trial Loot changes the reward tables used by trial chambers, so the loot found in them is less underwhelming without becoming overpowered.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalAll rights reserved1.21 – 26.3

What it does

The mod replaces the unique reward roll with a fixed reward table, and it doubles the quantity of diamonds that can drop. Emeralds take the place of emerald blocks, with their drop probability halved. Iron axes and iron chestplates stand in for diamond swords and diamond leggings, and enchanted books can contain mending. Honey bottles, golden carrots and golden apples replace several potions, baked potatoes and steaks. Every loot table that trial chambers use is modified, so the changes apply to each chamber type.

The server must run the mod for the altered loot to appear, while players may add it without any gameplay difference. Better Trial Loot is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and also works as a data pack. Files cover 1.21 – 26.3 across 17 release versions, with 1.0.3+mod for 26.3 as the latest file, published on 2026-09-30. The code is not open source, and the mod is released under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Reworked trial chamber rewards

    The unique reward roll is replaced by a fixed reward table, so each chamber gives a predictable set of items.

  2. Adjusted ore and gem quantities

    Diamonds drop in double quantity, while emerald drops from emerald blocks are rolled at half the previous probability.

  3. Substituted weapons and armor

    Iron axes and iron chestplates take the place of diamond swords and diamond leggings in the loot pool.

  4. Enchanted books with mending

    Enchanted books found in trial chambers can contain the mending enchantment.

  5. Food and potion swaps

    Honey bottles, golden carrots and golden apples replace regeneration potions, baked potatoes and steaks in the reward tables.

Better Trialchamber Loot is needed on the server, with the client optional, although servers can run it alone. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 1.20.1 – 26.3, under the MIT License, but it is not open source. Mineable Trial Spawner is open source under the MIT License and covers 1.21.5 – 26.3, but it changes spawners rather than loot tables.
