Author: Special_TT

Only a Type of Spear changes the spear so that one type of spear is available instead of several, with loot and piglin behaviour adjusted to match.

What it does

The mod treats the spear as a rare weapon, in the same class as the trident and the mace. Copper, stone, iron and diamond spears are no longer spread across the game, and the spearhead is instead obtained as a reward from chests in certain generated structures, which are described in the mod's text. Loot tables are changed so the spear appears in longer generated reward chests.

Piglins are changed as well: they carry golden spears, where zombie piglins carry golden swords. The change alters progression, since a player has to find the spearhead in a structure rather than craft or collect a spear from common materials.

The server must run the mod, while players may leave it out. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with a Data pack option for servers, and targets 1.21.11 only, with files dated 2026-05-10. The mod is open source under the MIT License.
