Custom Ender Dragon Levelling

  - enabled: false
    name: 'CR - Ender Dragon Fight'
    use-preset: normal_difficulty
    conditions:
      worlds:
        allowed-list: ['world_the_end']
      entities:
        allowed-list: ['ENDER_DRAGON']
    apply-settings:
      minLevel: 25
      multipliers:
        custom-mob-level:
          ENDER_DRAGON:
            max-health: 3.0
            attack-damage: 1.0

Once enabled, utilizing the preset normal_diffculty, limiting the rule to both the world_the_end and the ENDER_DRAGON itself. This tells the Ender Dragon to use a minLevel: 25, which when using the normal_difficulty, is considered the maxLevel: as well. Then we apply custom multipliers specifically for the ENDER_DRAGON, adjusting it's max-health: and attack-damage:, while still utilizing the default multipliers set in the normal_difficulty preset, along with any potential tiered coloring required.

Boss-Bar Style Nametag using Health Indicators

  - enabled: false
    name: 'CR - Boss Bar'
    use-preset: allowed_worlds, nametag_using_indicator
    apply-settings:
      health-indicator:
        scale: 2
        max: 10
      nametag: '%health-indicator%'

Once enabled, this will alter the nametag: of an entity to display only the health-indicator: style. This custom rule uses the presets to specify both the allowed_worlds and collect the coloring and indicator details from nametag_using_indicator. This rule will work with any difficulty setting, however it does assume that you are using the normal_difficulty when setting the scale:. Using LM's default difficulty settings, it would be recommended to use a scale: 1 for easy_difficulty and scale: 4 for hard_difficulty.

Deny Levelling in Specific Biomes

  - enabled: false
    name: 'CR - NoLevel Biomes'
    conditions:
      worlds:
        allowed-list: ['world_nether']
      biomes:
        allowed-list: ['NETHER_WASTES']
    apply-settings:
      maxLevel: 0

Once enabled, this custom rule will prevent entities from levelling when located within the world: world_nether, and the biome: NETHER_WASTES. A simple and easy to implement rule!

Customized Entity Name Based On Level

  - enabled: false
    name: 'CR - Level Dependent Zombie Custom Names'
    use-presets: allowed_worlds
    apply-settings:
      entity-name-override:
        1-5:
          ZOMBIE: ['Teething %displayname%']
        6-10:
          ZOMBIE: ['Scratching %displayname%']
        11-20:
          ZOMBIE: ['Biting %displayname%']
        21-25:
          ZOMBIE: ['Hunting %displayname%']
        BABY_ZOMBIE: ['Baby Undead']

Once enabled, this custom rules uses a special feature of the entity-name-override: which allows you to specify the level range which a custom name would apply. This scale presumes you are using the normal_difficulty preset, but all can be adjusted! You can also add conditions, such as biome limitations, which would allow you to further customize!

NBT-API | Startled Creepers!

  - enabled: false
#   This rule requires the soft-dependency NBT-API to function!
#   Make sure you have it installed prior to enabling this rule!
    name: 'CR - NBT - 20% Startled Creepers, Short Fuse'
    use-preset: allowed_worlds
    conditions:
      chance: 0.2
      entities:
        allowed-list: ['CREEPER']
    apply-settings:
      nbt-data: '{Fuse:2,Attributes:[{Name:"generic.follow_range",Base:1f}]}'
      entity-name-override:
        CREEPER: ['Startled %displayname%']

This custom rule requires the soft-dependency NBT-API to function! Once enabled, this rule will apply nbt-data: to the CREEPER entity. This applies at a chance: 0.2, or 20%. It will also change the Creeper's name to Startled Creeper, distinguishing them from normal CREEPER'S. The nbt-data: listed will adjust the CREEPER'S fuse duration to half a second, and make it so that they can not see the player until they are within about two blocks from them. This is where the concept of a 'startled' creeper came about!
