Drowned Trident Rebalance by KeyToFun

Creator notes

This datapack reworks the drowned's attack behavior — after landing a hit with their trident, they lose the ability to throw it and switch to dangerous melee combat. How it works: When a drowned hits a player with a thrown trident, the trident is moved from their main hand to their off hand. The drowned then receives a strength boost, becoming a threat only up close. Features: Deals 6 hearts in melee combat Trident can still drop on death No tick checks (no performance impact) In rare cases, incorrect target detection may occur — does not affect gameplay Share your thoughts on the reworked drowned in the comments and follow me to see more small datapacks that make the vanilla world better!
