Alternate Trident Dropping Mob

Trident should be a more well-guarded artifact much the elytra or beacon. To acquire the trident the player should be faced with more of a challenge.

My suggestion a mini-boss (about the same strength as an elder guardian) or boss. It is a monstrous fish-like creature the lives in the frozen ocean. If you go the route of a boss, the boss should have a relationship like the wither and wither-skeletons with guardians. Give guardians a rare drop to spawn the beast.

I do believe drowned should still throw tridents but not drop them. I simply wish for more effort to be needed to acquire such a powerful weapon because right now you can get a trident on day 1

    I think you have to be a pretty skillful player to get it on day 1.  Drowned with tridents are pretty deadly, and anyone who tries to kill one early game is much more likely to be killed than do the killing.

    I saw in a video that each elder guardian should drop one trident spike, and you craft them something else to craft a trident
