About this Mod
Shiny Mobs currently adds 10 shiny mob variants: Zombie, Skeleton, Creeper, Spider, Enderman, Witch, Slime, Magma Cube, Warden, Wither Skeleton. You can turn Shiny spawns on and off with /shinyon and /shinyoff. You can check the status of things with /ShinyStatus. Admin enabled commands are /ShinyKillAll and /ShinySpawnTest. The /ShinySpawnTest can be ran with or without argument; arguments are the mob so minecraft:zombie. The Ravager, Wither and Warden are hard spawns turned on with /shinyhardon and /shinyhardoff.
All mobs wearing armor have maxed out Netherite enchants, and have a chance of dropping the pieces they're wearing. Additionally there is custom loot tables for all of the shiny mobs.
We plan to add more shiny variants, rework loot tables, rework stats, and more. We're open to ideas and suggestions, tell us about it on our Discord.
