About this Mod
Ever wanted to actually not have to find Trial Chambers just to get Breezes? Why would they spawn so deep underground? Aren't they supposed to be wind related mobs?
If you have any of these questions or all of them then you've come to the right place! With this Datapack/Mod Breezes will now be able to spawn in your world but in a rather balanced way! You're going to have to go high up into the mountains if you want to hunt down Breezes at night!
You can contact me with feedback by messaging "dustfired" on Discord! State that you come from Modrinth or I will think you're a scammer!
Breezes will spawn in your world with this Datapack/Mod in the following biomes between Y 105 - 256:
- Jagged Peaks
- Stony Peaks
- Snowy Slopes
- Frozen Peaks
- Cherry Groves
- Groves
- Meadows
- Wooded Badlands
- Savanna Plateau
Note: They CAN spawn in caves as well as long as it's within the Y range!
This Datapack/Mod is compatible with Die by the Sword! It should be noted that Breezes spawned by this Datapack/Mod WILL have a chance to spawn as Elites if you have Die by the Sword installed in your world/game!

Server lagging with Winded – how to optimize performance?
