## Summary
\nStops Endermen from picking up any blocks. Lightweight, zero-tick, works from 1.13 to 1.21.x.<\/p>\n

## Description
\nKeep your builds safe without disabling all mob griefing. This tiny, vanilla-friendly datapack prevents Endermen from picking up blocks by emptying the minecraft:enderman_holdable block tag. No functions, no commands, no ticking \u2014 just a clean tag override.<\/p>\n

## Features
\nBlocks all Enderman block pickups (Overworld, Nether, End)
\nPure vanilla datapack; no mods or plugins required
\nZero performance cost (no tick\/load functions)
\nMultiplayer\/server friendly; safe to add or remove anytime
\nCompatible with 1.13 through 1.21.x (separate downloads per pack_format)<\/p>\n

## Compatibility<\/p>\n

“`
\nPlays nice with almost everything. The only potential conflict is another datapack that also edits
\n minecraft:tags\/blocks\/enderman_holdable.
\nIf something re-enables pickups, set this pack to higher priority:
\n \/datapack enable “file\/Enderman_Grief_Blocker” first<\/p>\n

“`<\/p>\n

## Installation
\n Download the release that matches your Minecraft version.
\n Drop the zip (or folder) into your world folder:
\n Singleplayer: saves\/YourWorld\/datapacks\/
\n Server: world\/datapacks\/
\n Start\/load the world and run: \/reload
\n Verify: \/datapack list enabled \u2014 your pack should be listed.<\/p>\n

## Notes
\nExisting Endermen already holding a block will keep that block; they just won\u2019t pick up new ones.
\nIf the game warns \u201cmade for a different version,\u201d grab the release for your version (or update pack.mcmeta\u2019s pack_format). The tag itself is stable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
