THIS DATAPACK USES THE DATAPACK "WHITECAT LIBRARY" AS A DEPENDENCY
Please download both to make this datapack work correctly

It must be V0.4
>> whitecat-library <<


ABOUT THE DATAPACK:
This datapack aims to make the vanilla experience of Minecraft a little bit more challenging at the same time, making it comfortable for builder players who want to keep a peaceful world.

The only challenges are for the ones who dare to defy the bottom of the abyss of Minecraft, each layer having more and more difficult experiences.

The main enemies of this datapack are the skeletons, but all the mobs will be modified for each layer, in future updates.

ABOUT LAYERS:
There are five different layers, defined by ranges of the Y axis:
Common-vanilla layer: Y>64
Rare layer: 32<Y<64
Twilight layer: 0<Y<32
Abyssal layer: -45<Y<0
Prime layer: -64<Y<-45

ABOUT THE ELDERS:
The Elders are extremely skilled enemies, with tricks up their sleeve, you cannot treat them the same as every mob in this game.
They are enemies experienced in killing adventurous players like you, so you're not the first they have seen and maybe won't be the last depending on how you choose to encounter them.
They don't have as much defense as prime enemies, even abyssal enemies, but their damage and tricks can cause your death extremely fast.
When identifying an elder, you'll notice they wear golden pieces of armor, and have some potion effects, your best bet is to assassinate them from afar with a bow.
Or you can just try your luck, but I warn you, the challenge is up to you, no rewards from them for now.

I won' t spoil the fun of discovering the kind of tricks they are used to.


RECOMMENDED DATAPACKS TO PLAY WITH:
Torch arrow >> With this datapack, you can illuminate dark caves really well, because mobs having invisibility or speed, can make it really unfair. Please use this datapack if you want a more fair experience.
Compass-XYZ >> Use this one, if you don't wanna keep the F3 key pressed while going down the abyss, if you wanna keep an eye in your depth. If you find deep slate, is very clear you're in the 0Y value, but maybe you wish to have a more exact value.

Notes:
I tried some stuff while making this new version, but it didn't work, it's just too much work and too much workarounds for it to work.
Maybe I'll update it again, but not soon. The ideas I have is to make shulkers in the end cities, being able to spawn "hordes of enemies", but like, end-game level enemies (which you'll need a full protection 4 armor to deal with them).

But for now, I'll leave the datapack up to you to try, if you think there is some kind of unfair mechanic, or the progression is not so good, please let me know to fix it.
I play tested it as fast as I could, just to have some time for other projects I have in mind.

That's I'll say for now, thanks for downloading and trying it.

  • Now potion effects are applied to unequipped enemies
  • Creepers can also have invisibility, but it could make it unfair, so a mechanic was added, to clear any potion effects when a creeper is in 4 blocks of distance from the player at least.
  • Creepers potion effects are also cleared when they're about to explode (to avoid spreading the effect and make give players almost infinite advantages).
  • All of the four Elders drop chances from their hand items, are dropped to 0%, to avoid collecting their unobtainable objects.
  • Enemies from the rare, twilight, abyssal and prime layers were nerfed, their weapons were changed to avoid unfair amounts of damage. Now they'll use wooden, stone and iron swords, and golden axes. The prime layer of the nether was buffed, so now enemies in the nether can have golden, iron or netherite axes in it.

This datapack isn't customizable, soo I recommend you downloading it and removing the lines that equip nether enemies their stuff.

And I don't recall magma cubes being included in the "armored_enemies" tag in the library, maybe in wrong.
