This datapack buffs the wither by giving it a new attack and passive, as well as two new drops to make it more worth fighting.

New drops (crafted with nether star) :
Witherfire (crossbow) : Requires 3 arrows, instead of 1, has a longer charge time, fires wither skulls.
Miniture Black Hole (consumable) : Summon a miniture black hole that sucks all entities in a nearby range in.
