Renewable Wither

by Abyssal Vanguard

Renewable Wither lets a single wither fight yield the skulls and nether star each time, so players can repeat the boss without farming hours of wither skeletons.

What it does

Renewable Wither makes the wither drop three wither skeleton skulls on defeat, alongside the nether star. After a wither is killed, the mod returns the skulls, so a fight can be repeated once the player has recovered, rather than collecting skulls by hand over many hours. The author describes it as a way to skip a long grind for the boss components, for players who want a more relaxed playthrough that still reaches the beacons.

The server needs the mod, while players may add it or leave it out. Renewable Wither is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a data pack, across 16 release versions, 1.21 – 26.2. The code is under the MIT License, and the mod is not open source.

Key features

  1. Three skulls per wither

    Each defeated wither drops three wither skeleton skulls in addition to the nether star.

  2. Repeatable boss fights

    Skulls are returned after a fight, so a wither can be summoned and defeated again without a skull farm.

  3. Skips the skull grind

    Players no longer need to spend long periods hunting wither skeletons for the three skulls a summon takes.
