Does looting affect spider farm drops?

Yes, using a weapon enchanted with the Looting enchantment (Looting I, II, or III) significantly increases drops from spider farms, boosting string and spider eye collection, and is highly recommended for efficient farms, especially for spider eyes used in potions. Looting adds to the maximum number of drops (e.g., 0-5 string with Looting III) and improves the chances for rarer items like spider eyes, making the farm more productive for valuable resources.
