cataclysm_loot_edit

A data pack that modifies boss loot tables for the Cataclysm mod, reworking the drops of key bosses to better fit my modpack’s progression and economy. This project adjusts what certain Cataclysm bosses drop, giving players new materials to craft with and discover.
What’s changed:
Ignis now drops Ignitium Blocks — a new resource that can be used for crafting and building
Netherite Monstrosity now drops Cursium Blocks — adding more variety to end-game loot tables
Why this matters:
The original Cataclysm boss drops may not align well with the rest of the modpack’s crafting recipes and progression system. By adjusting these drops, this data pack ensures that boss fights feel more rewarding and that the materials obtained tie into the modpack’s unique content and economy.
Requirements:
Minecraft Java Edition
Cataclysm mod must be installed
Compatibility:
Designed for use in my personal modpack
May work with other modpacks that include Cataclysm, but testing is recommended
Does not modify any other mods’ content — only changes Cataclysm boss drop tables
Notes:
This data pack does not add any new content on its own — it only modifies existing boss drop rates and items
If the Cataclysm mod is removed, this data pack will have no effect (no errors)
Drop tables are based on the current version of Cataclysm; updates to the mod may require adjustments
