Enderous Loot
Enderous Loot places Eyes of Ender inside several vanilla structures so players can find them without first exploring for a stronghold.
What it does
Eyes of Ender are added to loot tables in Trail Ruins, Cold Ocean Ruins, Desert Pyramids, Buried Treasure chests and some archaeology sites. The aim is to make the End dimension easier to reach, particularly for newer players who want to locate strongholds sooner.
Eyes are selected for some chests and archaeology sites, and the changes let a player reach the End without passing through the Nether first. The same loot changes are distributed as a data pack, so they can be added to a world or server without a separate client install. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and Quilt.
Enderous Loot is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license and is not open source. Only the server needs to run it, while players may leave it out. Builds exist for 1.20 – 1.21, and the latest file is v1.0.1 for 1.21, published 2024-06-18.
