Is there any way to edit vanilla loot tables instead of replacing them?

I did some research and saw something that was posted about a year ago that said this was being worked on. My issue is that I want a Wither Skeleton to drop wither bones but in order for me to do that I would have to replace all of his drops. (Also I'm new to this modding thing so screenshots/ in detail responses would help a ton!)

use Mod instead of Minecraft and use entity/MOB for entities or block/BLOCK for blocks

or chest/STRUCTURE for chests

I tried doing that and only the vanilla items dropped. I also tried choosing Minecraft instead of Mod and it only dropped the modded item. What I want to be able to do is drop all of the wither skeleton drops + my modded one.

Yeah still not working. I think "mod" is only for modded entities not vanilla. I did everything as you said and even made it so that the wither bones would have a 100% drop chance but still no luck :/

it shouldn't do that, weird, if you can't fix it, try by making it Minecraft and redoing all of the drops, but that solution would not work with other mods that also change loot tables for wither skeletons

you can duplicate this several times and add different drops with different chances of spawning and different amounts for spawning
