Craftable Wither Skull's!
Craftable Wither Skull's lets players make Wither Skeleton heads by crafting them, so no hunt in the Nether is needed.
What it does
Obtaining a Wither Skeleton head usually means long searches in the Nether. This Forge mod adds crafting recipes for the skulls, so they can be made directly with new recipes instead of waiting for a drop. It runs on the server only, so players join without installing it. Files are published for 1.20.1, with 1.0.0 as the latest release from 2026-05-30, under All rights reserved.
