What it does

Skeletons of several kinds appear in the world alongside the vanilla ones, and some of them are tougher to fight. The variants give the usual skeleton encounters a bit more challenge. Client and server both need the mod, so every player on a server that runs it installs it too. The only published files are for Forge 1.12.2, released 2023-09-05, and the mod is licensed under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. New skeleton mobs

  2. Several skeleton types

    Different skeleton kinds come with their own behavior, so fights vary from one encounter to the next.

  3. Headless Berserker

    One of the included skeletons is the Headless Berserker, an aggressive variant that adds a tougher fight.
