Trident Crafting Recipe
Trident Crafting Recipe changes how the trident is crafted, replacing its usual route with a shaped recipe made from prismarine shards, a heart of the sea and a stick.
What it does
The mod adds a crafting table recipe for the trident. Players can make the item from ocean materials instead of finding it in the world or trading for it. The ingredients are all standard items of the game, so the change stays within the existing item set.
Because the trident is a strong weapon, the author notes that the recipe can make it overpowered in some worlds. The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing anything, and only the server needs the mod. The version range is 1.20.1 – 1.21.11, and files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge. The code is under All rights reserved, and the mod is not open source.

Use cases

Who it’s for: Server owners who want tridents craftable from ocean materials, and players on those servers who want a direct way to get one.
