Longer EnderPearl Cooldown
by fickope
Longer EnderPearl Cooldown lengthens the wait between Ender Pearl throws by a datapack change, so players cannot chain escapes in fights.
What it does
A datapack extends the cooldown on Ender Pearl use to 20 seconds. Under default settings a player can throw pearls in quick succession to escape danger or close distance in combat. With this datapack loaded, a player must wait longer before throwing another pearl, which slows down teleport-based escapes in survival and PvP.
The change is meant to make teleportation more balanced and combat fairer, and to make pearl-based challenges harder. It works in singleplayer and multiplayer. Server owners install it on the server, and players do not need anything on their side. The datapack is lightweight and works alongside other datapacks.
The mod is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, as a data pack for 1.21.7 and 1.21.8. Both game versions have files, and the latest build is 1.04 for 1.21.8, released 2025-11-15. Only the server must run the datapack, while a player's client may skip it. The license is Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial 4.0, and the code is not open source.
