What part of EcoCityCraft is this suggestion for:

Main City Server​

Short title for your suggestion:

Enable Drowned Trident Drop Chance​

What are you suggesting:

Natively, drowned have a very small chance (about 4%) to drop a trident when killed, increased slightly with looting. In vanilla minecraft, drowned created from converted zombies also have this chance, but as far as I can tell it is disabled on the server. (I have been farming them for hours with no luck) Even if the percentage is lowered to something like 0.5%, I feel like the drop should be enabled.​

Why is this a good addition for EcoCityCraft?:

Tridents are very rare right now and as a result are also very expensive. Because this isn't a PvP server, they don't actually provide much use as anything more than an economic stimulus. Mob farming is a relatively slow way to get money unless you find a good double spawner setup, so this may make it more worthwhile. The cost of tridents also would eventually decrease as they become less rare and this would make the drop rate to $$ conversion much more fair as well.​

Other information:

The wiki page on the Drowned: https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Drowned
Under drops, you can see the percentage of trident drops.​

Plugin or custom addition:

I believe this may be able to be done natively through minecraft configs, otherwise it might be possible to add it with mcmmo.​

One suggestion per form:

I Understand.​

 

Yes, naturally spawned drowned still have the chance to drop them.
Specifically I mean converted drowned, spawned from zombie spawner into a pool of water. As far as I can tell there is a 0% chance of them dropping one, because the regular zombies cannot spawn holding a trident before they are converted into drowned.

 

Okay, I'll give it a shot. Thank you!

I'll create a new thread that is more specific. Thanks!
