Witches Drop Blaze Powder
by notblue
Witches Drop Blaze Powder changes the loot table of witches, so they can drop blaze powder and more glass bottles when killed.
What it does
Witches gain a blaze powder entry in their loot table, so a witch killed by a player or by other means can leave blaze powder behind. The mod also raises the number of glass bottles a witch drops. The changes are made through a data pack, so the mod is distributed as a Data pack for server platforms and does not add new items or blocks.
The mod pairs well with Vanilla Tweaks More Mob Heads. The data pack loads after More Mob Heads, so server owners should place it at the bottom of the datapack list, which can be checked with the datapack list command. Witches Drop Blaze Powder is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with the latest file targeting 1.5+mod for 26.3.
Only the server needs the pack to apply the loot changes, and players may still join without installing the mod. Builds cover 1.20 – 26.3 across 24 release versions. The mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license and is not open source, so redistributing the pack requires following the license conditions.

Data pack delivery
The changes ship as a data pack, so no new items, blocks or entities are added to the game.
