This datapack improves the game balance by changing the loot tables of the raid mobs.
This datapack makes it so Vindicators drop 0 to 1 Emeralds (low chance), which isn't affected by looting. It also makes Evokers drop 0 to 1 emeralds without being affected by looting and makes the Totem of Undying harder to obtain, as now there is a 1 in 1000 chance of dropping, or 1 in 250 if you're using Looting III. Witches now no longer drop gunpowder, spider eyes and sticks, forcing players to opt for other farms to get these items, however, now they drop more redstone and glowstone.
