Rare Mob Captains can spawn in your world, giving you an extra challenge and rewarding you with nice custom loot!


This data pack now WORKS in 1.16.X and 1.17!
(It is still recomendet to be used in 1.17 but everything works in 1.16)

This data pack works nicely in conjunction with one of my other data packs, Upgrade Gear!

The mob captains can drop illegally enchanted gear, meaning enchantments that you can not get in vanilla minecraft.
If you have any fun ideas on which illegally enchanted items should be included in the loot table, please let me know with a comment!

If you want to test this out, you can make a mob become captain by running a command next to them:
/execute as @e[​type=#ps_mob:captains,limit=1,sort=nearest] run function ps_mob:become_captain

If you want to give yourself the loot, there is a command for that:
/loot give @s loot ps_mob:mob_drops     (1.17)
/loot give @s loot ps_mob:1.16_mob_drops  (1.16.X)

The mob captains are buffed by the following potion effects:

Speed III
Strength III
Resistance II
Absorption IV
(With these effects a zombie without armor has 64 effective health instead of 20 health)

These effects can be customized:
/data/ps_mob/functions/become_captain.mcfunction

Each mob that can become a captain has a 2% chance of becoming one, when spawning in.
You can customize the chance of becoming a captain in the file:
/data/ps_mob/predicates/rng.json

Most hostile and some neutral mobs can become captains.
A full list can be found and customized:
/data/ps_mob/tag/entity_types/captains.json

The loot table can also be customized:
/data/ps_mob/loot_tables/mob_drops.json    (1.17)
/data/ps_mob/loot_tables/1.16_mob_drops.json  (1.16.X)

This data pack is inspired by AtomicStryker's infernal Mobs mod!

Hello, I was using your datapack and I had a question! I figured out how to edit the loot table, but all the mob types are connected to the same loot table. Is there any way to seperate the loot tables between mobs so it can be customized (balanced) for use with mob spawners?

This can not be done very easily but if you know how to, you can change it by introducing types into the selectors in the function: /data/ps_mob/functions/drop.mcfunction

If you go to the file /data/ps_mob/tag/entity_types/captains.json, you can remove every mob but the "minecraft:zombie" and then only zombies can become captains!
You can also increase the chance of a zombie becoming a captain in the file /data/ps_mob/predicates/rng.json!

Every Mob Captain drops 1 piece of illegal gear, each having the same chance of appearing. And like in normal Minecraft, you can't enchant gear that is allready enchanted but you can add enchantments onto it by anvil!

Is there an option to make the gear "too expensive!" for the anvil to prevent too op armor? (like making it max nbt tag or something like that) Im planning to use this data pack in a server with my friends.

Thanks for the reply.

There is currently no easy way to make it "too expensive" for the anvil, other than editing the loot table but the items can not be combined with one another, since the item will get "legalized" when it is put into the right side of the anvil. So the maxed out armors can only have one illegal enchantment!

Can we change the chances of each drop so say the platted elytra is a 0.001 chance but the match is a 0.01 chance??? Also is there a way i can change it so when you hold certain items it can give your potion effects or even change the knockback resistance or attack speed of the weapon.

You should be able to do most of this by editing the loot table!

Sadly the loot table is using new 1.17 features, but if many people ask for it, I will try to make a 1.16 version!
