Datapack Mob Progression

Mob Progression, tougher survival for your Minecraft server

Mob Progression is a Java Edition Minecraft datapack that makes hostile encounters evolve with your progress. As you obtain better equipment, nearby enemies advance through stronger gear tiers, creating a more demanding survival experience without replacing Minecraft’s familiar gameplay.

The pack affects skeletons, zombies, creepers, spiders, drowned, wither skeletons, zombified piglins, vexes, and pillagers. Their progression moves from iron armor to diamond armor, then full netherite armor, giving exploration and combat a lasting challenge. At BoxToPlay, we recommend it for any Minecraft server seeking a simple, vanilla friendly difficulty curve.
