Rich Husk Mod (1.21.7, 1.20.1) is a lightweight but effective tweak that enhances mob drops in Minecraft by making husks more rewarding to fight. Traditionally, zombie variants such as regular zombies have a rare chance to drop iron ingots. This mod changes that dynamic for husks, replacing the usual loot with gold ingots instead.
This simple adjustment gives desert biomes a more strategic incentive and brings new balance to resource collection, especially for players seeking gold in the early or mid-game.

Features:
- Gold Instead of Iron
Husks now drop gold ingots instead of iron ingots, differentiating their value from other undead mobs. - Lightweight and Server-Friendly
The mod is small in size and adds no new entities or textures, making it compatible with almost any modpack. - Desert Biome Incentive
Encourages players to explore and farm mobs in desert regions, making gold farming more accessible early in the game. - Works With Existing Spawning Mechanics
No changes to spawn rates or AI only the loot table of husks is modified. - Mod Loader Support
Fully compatible with Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, and Quilt for versions 1.21.7, 1.20.1.

By giving husks a unique loot profile gold instead of iron you now have a reason to farm them specifically or build mob farms in desert biomes.

It’s also a great addition to custom modpacks where loot differentiation between mobs adds to strategic depth.
