Wither Skeleton Totem
Makes grinding for mob drops more interesting
About this Mod
Description
If you believe that griding for mob drops is tedious, this mod attempts to make it more interesting using wither skeleton totems.
Near the totem, you are given a looting effect, the same as a looting
II sword. And, if you kill any mob with a looting III sword and a
totem is nearby, the total effect is looting V.But be careful, because monsters nearby will gain strength II and
speed.These totems spawn uncommonly in the nether. Just mine the base to
pick up the two totem pieces, and then construct them anywhere else.They also can be crafted if you have a wither skeleton skull.
