Drop Randomizer

A Paper plugin that replaces every block and mob drop with a random item from the full item pool. Drop amounts are preserved — only the item type changes.

Compatible with Paper 1.20.6+ and 26.1+.

Overview

• Block breaks (player-initiated): drop is replaced with a random item.
• Cascade breaks (sugar cane, bamboo, kelp): each block in the cascade is individually randomized.
• Mob kills: each drop is replaced with a random item.
• Fishing, loot chests, and other loot table sources are unaffected.
