🏜️ Content
💰 Bundle
- Bundle now has a craft.

🌪️ Sand Tornado
- Sand Tornado spawns in the desert and chases the nearest player, throwing them into the sky. The spawn chance is much higher in rainy weather.

- Mod used - Legendary Tooltips
🪱 Desert Scourge
- Desert Scourge is a unique boss worm that can be summoned using the Suspicious Horn in the desert.
- Has 250 HP. It attacks both directly, attacking the player from underground, and indirectly, summoning its mini-worm minions, which jump out from underground and attack random players.
- Аfter its death, it drops a new item on place of his head - the Barinade.
- Barinade is a bow whose arrows have no gravity and have great speed.
- Arrows that hit the block disappear.
🎬 Showcase
🛠️ Compatibility
❗This datapack will not work correctly on servers with Spigot/Paper. (not relevant since v1.1)
❗This datapack may have problems with other datapacks/mods that somehow change pigs.
💿 Optimization
❗The optimization here isn't the best and I strongly don't recommend spawning more than 1 worm.
