Better Wandering Trader

1.15 +

With this Data Pack you'll get a lot of small useful things that you can trade with Wandering Traders. These items are all available only through him.

The Wandering Trader will also become a neutral mob. This means that if you provoke him, he will attack you.
But this is not the only punishment for attacking him. The harder one is that you'll need to wait much longer for a new Wandering Trader to spawn.

The items you can trade with him are split into three rarity degrees. The common items have a yellow name, the rare ones have a blue one and the epic ones have a purple one.
In the inventory of the Trader the first four trades are common, the next two rare and the last one is epic.

The entire spawning system of the Wandering Trader has also been reworked. Now, a Wandering Trader spawns every five days at random player who hasn't hit a Trader in the last five days. After two days, the Trader despawns again.

If you play on a server or a weak PC, please check first if the Nether and the End Gate place and remove the blocks correctly. If they don't place a 3x3 platform in the end or in the nether underneath you, you should disable these trades!
