Loot Tweaks for Artifacts Utility Datapack for Prominence II Data Pack FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

Do I need this datapack if I'm playing Prominence II?
Yes, if you want to avoid finding Feral Claws in treasure chests and buried treasure. The claws are disabled in Prominence II but still generate in loot, causing confusion when they vanish from your inventory after pickup.
Will this datapack work on a multiplayer server?
Yes, it works in multiplayer and is compatible with the Lootr mod, which is commonly used on servers to manage shared chest loot.
What happens to Feral Claws when I install this?
They are completely removed from all loot tables so they will never spawn in chests, buried treasure, or village toolsmiths. Any claws you already have in your inventory will remain.
Can I change what item replaces the Feral Claws?
Yes, the datapack replaces them with Pickaxe Heaters by default, but you can customize the loot tables to use a different item if you prefer.
Does this datapack affect other Artifacts mod items?
It removes only Feral Claws from loot tables by default, but the datapack also lets you adjust spawn chances for other special items added by the Artifacts mod.
Will this break my existing world or advancements?
No, the datapack modifies advancements and loot tables safely without corrupting your world. Existing items in your inventory or chests will not be deleted.
Can I use this datapack with other datapacks?
Yes, it should work alongside other datapacks, but if multiple datapacks modify the same loot tables, load order may matter—check your datapack folder if you experience conflicts.
Why do Feral Claws disappear when I pick them up?
In Prominence II, the Feral Claws item is disabled in the mod config, so the game removes it from your inventory immediately after it spawns. This datapack prevents them from spawning in the first place.
Do I need to do anything special to install this on my server?
Place the datapack in your world's datapacks folder and run `/reload` in-game, or restart the server. Make sure it loads after any other datapacks that modify loot tables.
Can I customize which items spawn and how often?
Yes, the datapack includes options to change spawn rates for Artifacts items by editing the loot table files, though you'll need basic familiarity with JSON formatting.
