Heavy Core Chance Config
Makes Heavy Core drop chance configurable through a config file.
HeavyCoreChance
HeavyCoreChance lets server owners configure the drop chance of the Heavy Core from Ominous Vaults in Trial Chambers.
The Heavy Core has a ~7.5% chance to drop by default — making the Mace one of the most frustrating items to obtain in vanilla survival. With this plugin you can adjust that to whatever suits your server, without touching a single loot table or data pack.

Features
- Set the Heavy Core drop chance to any value from 0% to 100%
- Defaults to 7.5% — the exact vanilla rate — so nothing changes until you want it to
- Reload the config live with
/hcc reload, no restart required - All other Ominous Vault loot is completely untouched
Config

# 0.0 = Heavy Core never drops
