    I think it would be a nice addition to the server if we had a plugin which allows people to gain mob heads from mobs they kill.
    There can be a very low chance that a player can gain heads set so grinding for the heads is difficult and people can only gain heads by killing the mob by a sword.

    The only head that I can foresee being common are pigmen heads which isn't a huge issue. Player heads won't drop so it makes them special still.
    The other issue is if heads will drop in mob arena (which isn't a big deal either considering items disappear when you die).

    This idea is based on the fact that the mob arena isn't a fair way for users to gain the prizes. Especially when the server reaches the quieter times and those who want to participate don't have enough people to play.
    The arena isn't full of people and it becomes too hard for many to enjoy gaining skulls. Having an easier way to join in the joy of collecting skulls would be great for many people.

    So in short:
    - The plugin (which exists already) will allow mobs to drop heads
    - Heads can be set to drop at very... very low rates as to not let people gain too many from grinding mobs or cheating. (Just like the chances of ores in stone and cobble generators)
    - The only way to gain the heads are to kill with swords
    - The only head that will be common is pigmen (possibly guardian) due to how people grind these mobs
    - benefits those who are unable to participate in mob arena and have a fair chance at player heads

    Support, It will be easier getting mob heads instead of buying some.

    maybe make them rare?

    Totally support, I'm planning to make some future "scary" stuff with the caves that I will be building and I really need other mob heads apart from creeper and wither skeleton heads. And maybe a chance of winning a dragon head from the legendary crate? (A very low chance) because the enderdragon heads are just... cute especially the mouth movement omg

    I can imagine these being great for our economy too. I wonder what the prices would be for the most rare mob heads :eek:

    Support, having them as rare and only obtainable with a sword is also a great idea :)

    Support. I think this is a great idea, as it will allow newer users to obtain mob heads, while also making sure to not give anyone an unfair advantage. There are times that the mob arena is very empty, making it difficult to win, and it wouldn't hurt to give mobs a one or two percent chance to drop their head. I also like the idea of making it so that the mob has to be killed by a sword in order to drop its head, so that players can not just leave an alternate account online at an automatic grinder and come back to dozens of heads.

    Love the idea so much! This could make mob farming so much fun! :)
    Maybe the drop rate could be a 0. something? The amount of farms would make it too easy or we could have different rarities for each mob :p

    Some players has kill aura. To make it harder, players must kill it with a stick :D:D:D

    Actually that is a good point, a weapon that makes it difficult to kill mobs, with an extremely low drop would certainly make it a chore to get a head, even with kill aura

    Though the idea of a very small chance was because of kill aura and afk grinding.

    Support, as long as there is very, very low drop rates. And, I highly doubt that this is possible, but maybe there could be a limit on how many you can receive each day?

    In my opinion if we have a total of 5 droped a day that is too much maybe like 1 every 5-10 days
