Better Wither Skull RatesMinecraft data pack for 26.2

I know, I know. You're probably saying "Oh look... Another Wither Skull DataPack/Mod". Well unlike most that just make the drop chance 100% or super high. Mine increases it in a way more balanced than usual.

Frequently asked

Does Better Wither Skull Rates work on Minecraft 26.2?

Yes. 26.2 is the newest Minecraft version Better Wither Skull Rates declares support for, and the claim comes from the author's own release metadata rather than from a compatibility list somebody maintains by hand.

Which Minecraft versions does Better Wither Skull Rates support?

Everything the author has declared, from 1.20.1 up to 26.2. The full list is in the table above, with the Java runtime each version needs next to it.

Do I need to install Better Wither Skull Rates on the client or the server?

The server only. Players join with an ordinary Minecraft client and install nothing.

What licence is Better Wither Skull Rates under?

LicenseRef-All-Rights-Reserved, as stated by the author on the platform we synced it from. Check the project's own page before redistributing or bundling it.

How do I install Better Wither Skull Rates?

Data packs install per world: put the downloaded file in that world's datapacks folder and run /reload, or add it when creating the world. No loader is involved. On a server, the world folder lives next to the server jar.

Where do I download Better Wither Skull Rates safely?

From the author's own page on Modrinth, which is where the data here is synced from. MCReference never mirrors, re-hosts or repackages a file: every download button points at the original source, so you get exactly what the author published.

Works on the same versions

Ordered by how much of the recent Minecraft version coverage overlaps, not by popularity.

Last checked 2 mo ago against Modrinth. We do not host files and we do not republish descriptions; every download link points at the author’s own release.
