# Harder Wardens<\/p>\n
Wardens gain more HP, deal more damage, and drop better loot and XP or you make the Warden a one hit kill and deal almost zero damage, it’s completely up to you. Fully configurable!<\/p>\n

> Vanilla Warden baseline: 500 HP, 30 base attack damage.
\n> Minecraft clamps `minecraft:max_health` to `1024`, so presets stay below that vanilla limit.<\/p>\n
### `customHealth` *(CUSTOM only)*
\nMaximum HP for the Warden. Default: `500.0`<\/p>\n
### `customDamageMultiplier` *(CUSTOM only)*
\nMultiplier on the Warden’s base attack damage. Default: `1.5`
\nExample: `2.0` = double damage (60 base \u2192 90 on Hard game difficulty)<\/p>\n
### `customLootPreset` *(CUSTOM only)*
\nWhich loot table preset to use: `NONE`, `EASY`, `NORMAL`, `HARD`, `NIGHTMARE`, or `INSANE`<\/p>\n
`NONE` disables all extra loot drops.<\/p>\n
### `customXpReward` *(CUSTOM only)*
\nHow much XP the Warden drops. Default: `25`<\/p>\n
Minimum: `0`
\nMaximum: `100`<\/p>\n
Values above `100` are automatically clamped back to `100`.<\/p>\n
