Description

Better Villager Trades: Vanilla is a lightweight, vanilla-friendly overhaul of the Minecraft trading system. Adding 50-70+ new trades! Tired of your chests overflowing with useless mob drops, copper ingots, or extra crops? This mod introduces balanced, lore-friendly trade recipes to existing villager professions and completely reimagines the Wandering Trader. Get access to rare structural maps, utility blocks, and non-renewable resources entirely through the standard village economy—without breaking game progression!

No more ignoring the traveling merchant! The Wandering Trader now offers rare, late-game, and non-renewable items in exchange for your hard-earned emeralds. Save yourself the tedious grind and trade for items like Shulker Shells, Sponges, Heart of the Sea.

Purely Vanilla-Friendly

No New Items: Every single trade utilizes pre-existing blocks and items already found in Minecraft.
Strict Tier Progression: High-value trades are locked behind Expert and Master levels, preserving the natural flow of survival gameplay.
Seamless Integration: Works perfectly alongside other vanilla mechanics and matches standard villager experience gains.
