Mob Tag Fixes
by night23
Mob Tag Fixes is a NeoForge data mod that places modded mobs into the vanilla entity type tags they were missing from.
What it does
Vanilla entity type tags decide which mobs count as raiders, arthropods and similar groups, and many modded mobs never received those entries. This mod fills the gap, so raids, Smite and Bane of Arthropods enchantments and other combat mechanics that read the tags can work with them. The additions are pure data: nothing is patched or mixed into game code, and vanilla tags are extended rather than overwritten.
Raiders covers illager-style mobs, including the Archevoker from Iron's Spells and the bandit faction used by Pillage. A mod that is missing from the tags is skipped instead of causing an error at load time.
The mod is server-side only, so the server needs it and players join without installing anything. It is released under the MIT License and is open source, with files for 1.21.1 only, published on June 12, 2026.
Key features
Raider tag additions
Illager and bandit mobs from supported mods are added to the raider tag so raid logic applies to them.
Arthropod tag additions
Insects and crustaceans from supported mods are added to the arthropod tag, so arthropod-targeting enchantments affect them.
Data-only changes
The additions are plain data files with no code patches, and vanilla tags are extended rather than replaced.
Safe skipping
Entries for mods that are not installed are skipped, so the pack loads cleanly without them.

A small NeoForge mod that adds modded mobs to the vanilla entity type tags they belong in, so vanilla combat mechanics work on them. Pure data and tags, nothing is patched or mixin'd. Mob Tag Fixes adds those mobs to the tags they were left out of. Every entry is soft, so a mod you do not have is skipped instead of…
