My solution is to make them abandoned, rarer and removing most of the loot. This way if you do find one its special and you have to use other ways to get villagers (curing or wandering trader)._<\/p>\n<p>I also suggest using these two datapacks to balance villagers:<br \/>\n&#8211; Villager Restock Balance<br \/>\n&#8211; Librarian&#8217;s Balance<\/p>\n<p>## \ud83d\udc2aOther tweaks<br \/>\n&#8211; camels will now spawn naturally in deserts<br \/>\n&#8211; cave spiders spawn in deserts at night instead of normal spiders (due to them being similar to scorpions)<br \/>\n&#8211; made ruined portals generate more rarely<br \/>\n&#8211; made rabbit jump height a bit higher so they dont get stuck on edges of blocks as often<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An attempt at nerfing unbalanced features.<br \/>\nStructures are rarer, villages always spawn abandoned, no Trader Llamas, convert Wandering Trader to a Villager &#038; more!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":171347,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"world-balance","_minecraft_project_id":"YX5Oloic","_minecraft_author":"Gurkis","_minecraft_license":"LicenseRef-All-Rights-Reserved","_minecraft_downloads":393,"_minecraft_follows":8,"_minecraft_client_side":"optional","_minecraft_server_side":"required","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"world-balance.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":43020,"_minecraft_version_count":2,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-15T19:05:10.252675Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2024-06-05T18:56:57.811142Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2024-08-17T13:23:20.281050Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/world-balance","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":171347,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-09T21:21:19+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"38e391a31c0b4bdc60fdc4d84cc0373e","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[84,89,92,159],"mod_loader":[86],"minecraft_version":[101,102,62,37],"class_list":["post-171346","mod","type-mod","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mod_category-datapack","mod_category-game-mechanics","mod_category-utility","mod_category-worldgen","mod_loader-datapack","minecraft_version-1-20-5","minecraft_version-1-20-6","minecraft_version-1-21","minecraft_version-1-21-1"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>World Balance - Minecraft<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/vpesports.com\/minecraft\/mods\/world-balance\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"World Balance - Minecraft\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"An attempt at nerfing unbalanced features.
