Playing cards are a miscellaneous item with very little use.

Usage

The only use of the playing cards is in using multiplayer commands. If the player has playing cards in their inventory, they can use the command /card, which will draw a random card (using the modern English deck format). The uses of this mechanic are up to the player's imagination.

Note that the playing cards cannot be used to improve the player's mood.

Distribution

The loot distributions can be found in the table(s) below.

CardDeck distribution Show / Hide

Effective chance calculations are based off of default loot settings, and median zombie density. The higher the density of zombies in an area, the higher the effective chance of an item spawning. Chance is also influenced by the lucky and unlucky traits.
