Withered Fragments

by Konhaiii

Withered Fragments changes which drop a Wither Skeleton gives, replacing the skull with a Wither Skull Fragment on most kills.

FabricClient and serverCreative Commons Attribution Non Commercial 4.026.1 – 26.2

What it does

Wither Skeletons drop a Wither Skull Fragment instead of a skull on a chance roll. Nine fragments craft into one Wither Skeleton Skull, giving an alternative route to skulls. Over many farming runs the mechanic raises the total number of skulls by about two more, while the original drop stays unchanged on average.

Installation needs Fabric. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files target 26.1 – 26.2 and the latest is 1.0.0 for 26.2, released under Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial 4.0 and not open source.

Key features

  1. Skull fragment drops

    Wither Skeletons can drop a Wither Skull Fragment in place of a skull, adding a new item to the mob's loot table.

  2. Crafting into skulls

    Nine fragments craft into one Wither Skeleton Skull, so fragments can be collected and converted at a crafting table.

  3. Higher skull yield

    Farming Wither Skeletons yields about two more skulls on average, while the original drop is kept.

What the author says

This mod adds an alternative way to obtain Wither Skeleton Skulls. A new item, Wither Skull Fragment, can drop from Wither Skeletons. If a Wither Skeleton does not drop a skull, it has a chance to drop a fragment instead.
