Golem Loot
Golem Loot changes what an Iron Golem drops when it is defeated, adding an Iron Tablet to its loot table on a server.
What it does
The mod adds the Iron Golem loot table an Iron Tablet, a custom item that disables a player's shield for 30 seconds when it lands an attack, and hits harder than an axe for longer. The drop chance rises with the Looting level: 2% at Looting 0, 5% at Looting 1, 10% at Looting 2 and 20% at Looting 3. Golems also drop iron nuggets, iron ingots and iron blocks as usual, and a rare iron block variant can yield the tablet as well.
Only the server must run Golem Loot; a player may leave it out and still join. The mod is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is not open source. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. The latest file, v1.0+mod for 26.3, was released on 2026-10-10, and builds exist for 1.21.5 – 26.3 across 12 release versions. The mod was first published on 2026-05-30.
