Diamond Piglins

by Gamingbarn

Diamond Piglins adds one new piglin variant that is fascinated by diamonds and drops unbreakable diamond gear when it dies.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalCreative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.01.20.2 – 26.2

What it does

The Diamond Piglin spawns in place of some regular piglins and carries unbreakable diamond gear. When it is killed it drops that gear, and the drops are unbreakable as well, so a player who defeats it gets equipment that does not take durability damage. Diamond gear dropped by this mob can also be upgraded to netherite, and the upgraded netherite keeps the unbreakable property.

The mod is delivered as a Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt mod, and the same content is also available as a data pack for servers. A server needs the mod for the Diamond Piglin to exist, while players may add it on their side but are not required to. Files cover 1.20.2 – 26.2 across 15 release versions, with V1.2.10-mod for 26.2 as the latest build, released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.0 license and not open source.

Key features

  1. Diamond Piglin variant

    A piglin variant with a unique fascination with diamonds that appears in place of regular piglins at a set chance.

  2. Unbreakable diamond gear

    The Diamond Piglin carries diamond gear that cannot be broken, so the equipment keeps full durability.

  3. Gear drop on death

    Upon death the Diamond Piglin drops its special gear, letting players collect it from the mob.

  4. Netherite upgrade

    Diamond gear from this mob can be upgraded to netherite, and the result still retains the unbreakable property.

Use cases

Gear farming on a server

A server owner who wants a source of unbreakable diamond equipment can rely on the Diamond Piglin as a drop source in the Nether.

Who it’s for: Server owners and players who want a steady source of unbreakable diamond equipment in the Nether, and who are comfortable with a mob that appears in place of regular piglins.

How it compares

Full comparison

Piglins Trade Gold Blocks and Better Piglin Bartering change piglin trading rather than adding a mob with gear drops. Fast Piglin Trades also targets piglin trades and is published for 1.21.5 – 26.3 under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, which is not open source in the sense used here. Red's Unbreakable Enchantment covers unbreakable items through an enchantment, so it works on any gear rather than only on the Diamond Piglin's drops.
