Drowned Improve Over time
This datapack makes drowned stronger the longer you play. the changes are gradual, and increase very slightly each minecraft day. Difficulty is calculated for each player separately.
There is now a datapack dedicated to all hostile mobs - https://modrinth.com/datapack/hostile-mobs-improve-over-time
Stats
Stats that increase include:
- Health
- Melee damage
- Movement speed
- Chance of having trident
- Armor and armor toughness
Drowned also receive depth strider after day 70, and on day 100 all drowned have tridents and totems
Commands
To test out how hard the drowned are, use functions drow:day25, drow:day50, drow:day75, drow:day100 or use command: /scoreboard players set <player> Drowdif <number>. To reset your score use drow:reset, to reset all of players difficulty, use drow:resetall
Timers
Timer for difficulty is per player, and increases every minecraft day (20 minutes). sleeping does NOT forward this timer. Max difficulty is day 100+ and difficulty does not increase after that.
Drowned only change if in a 32-block radius of any player. (this applies to every "improve over time" datapack i made)
Installing
Like your ordinary datapack, put zip file in datapacks folder of your world.
Uninstalling
Run function skel:uninstall and remove the datapack from datapacks folder
Other
Because of how the datapack is made, drowned will have their nautilus shells removed when getting a trident, and on day 100 all drowned can no longer have nautilus. Just keep this in mind, you can still get nautilus from fishing. And the chance of getting a trident has been slightly lowered because more and more drowned will have it.
I am planning on making a version of this datapack for each common mob, then making a datapack consisting of all of them (This is the third mob improvement datapack I made) and all of them are compatible with eachother.
There is now Hostile mobs improve over time datapack which includes this + many more hostile mobs, you can download it here - https://modrinth.com/datapack/hostile-mobs-improve-over-time - but if you wish to play with only some of them, links are below
