> Vanilla Warden baseline: 500 HP, 30 base attack damage. > Minecraft clamps `minecraft:max_health` to `1024`, so presets stay below that vanilla limit.

`customHealth` *(CUSTOM only)*

Maximum HP for the Warden. Default: `500.0`

`customDamageMultiplier` *(CUSTOM only)*

Multiplier on the Warden's base attack damage. Default: `1.5` Example: `2.0` = double damage (60 base → 90 on Hard game difficulty)

`customLootPreset` *(CUSTOM only)*

Which loot table preset to use: `NONE`, `EASY`, `NORMAL`, `HARD`, `NIGHTMARE`, or `INSANE`

`NONE` disables all extra loot drops.

`customXpReward` *(CUSTOM only)*

How much XP the Warden drops. Default: `25`

Minimum: `0` Maximum: `100`

Values above `100` are automatically clamped back to `100`.
