Minecraft is one of the most popular games on the planet. In Minecraft, we do have a few mobs, which are technically bots that come into the game. The players need to defeat those mobs in order to move forward in the game. In this blog, we are going to see one such kind of mob, which is considered one of the deadliest targets for players. Yes, today we are going to have a view on how to spawn and defeat the wither boss in Minecraft horse. Sounds interesting, doesn’t it? How to defeat the Wither boss in Minecraft is explained in this blog. Let’s take a closer look at the wither skull and how it appears before moving on to the blog.

What exactly is a Wither Skull? 

The wither skull is spawned by placing around four blocks of soul soil, or soul sand. Air blocks are required on both sides of the base sand, or “soul soil,” under the upper blocks. These building patterns, as well as the skulls, can have any pattern or orientation. After the successful spawning, the wither skull creates lots of anger and creates an explosion around itself. From this behavior alone, it can be concluded that it is one of the deadliest targets for players. There are few options in order to control the angry mob. Like other hostile mobs, the wither stops its spawning activity when the difficulty level is made peaceful. In other words, the wither spawning structure in the peaceful spawning structure will not harm players in any way.

The above picture is an example of a fully grown skull that is ready to explode. It looks scary, doesn’t it?

Wither characteristics and behavior: After spawning, the Wither mob grows to the size of its health bar. During this state, the wither mob is invulnerable, and it neither moves nor reacts or attacks. It remains in an idle state for some time during this period. Once the wither reaches this stage, it creates a large explosion around itself and makes a loud noise. Because of this explosion, it also destroys the nearby mobs and causes very huge damage to the mobs and players around them. This explosion deals with the large, gruesome sound that is heard all over the maps in Minecraft movie and in other dimensions too. This is considered one of the deadliest behaviors of wither.

The following blocks can’t be broken by Wither:

  1. Barrier 
  2. Bedrock
  3. End Portal
  4. End Portal Frame
  5. End Gateway
  6. Command Block
  7. Structure Block
  8. Jigsaw Block
  9. Light Block
  10. Moving Piston
  11. Moving Block
  12. Reinforced Deepslate.

These blocks in Minecraft rail can’t be broken by Wither. For those players who are all playing Java Edition, it is mentioned in the name of Wither Immune. The above blocks can be used to create one of the best immune setups ever for avoiding the wither. The wither mob cannot defeat the players if we use these wither immune packs. These blocks reduce wither’s immunity, which is represented by the health bar. This is an important point to remember while watching the play.

Once the Wither sees the target, it starts shooting the skull. The wither fires from its head and attacks up to three mobs or players at the same time.

Bedrock Edition of Wither:

The Bedrock Edition is another version of Wither. The wither hovers and flies to a different location. It shoots one black and one blue skull before moving to another location. Once it reaches half its power, it starts spawning again. As a result, it gains the new armour known as Wither Armour. It begins firing the black and blue skulls shortly after spawning. The black skull will be around 3, and the blue skull will be around 1. So it fires around four skulls in order after spawning.

Wither Skull:

The above image is an example of a Wither skull. This is different from a skeletal skull. The Wither skull causes two types of explosions. The first is black, and the second is blue. The black color explodes with an explosion level of 1, and the blue color explodes at the same level but causes more destruction to the surroundings and terrain. Even though it causes lots of damage, it still cannot break the bedrock, Jigsaw blocks, or end portal blocks.

How to defeat the Wither Mob?

In relation to this blog, this subheading is one of the most important things for all the players. Before we fight the Wither mob, there are a few steps we must take and keep in mind. As stated before, the wither mob is one of the terrific and dangerous obstacles for the players. Hence, as players, we need to keep in mind that, during spawning, it will be in an idle state.

The players should not try to attack during the spawning stage. Once the spawning is done, the players should be at a certain distance from each other so that they can escape the explosion.

The best time to attack the wither is when its health reduces to half, and if you notice the health bar before it starts the spawning stage, the player should attack and put it in peaceful mode. The wither is easily defeated after the peaceful mode. This is how we can defeat the wither skull.

Points to be reviewed before facing the Wither Mob:

  1. The wither mob is like a bot or one of the programs that destroy players and other mobs.
  2. The Wither mob cannot be attacked during the spawning stage.
  3. The wither mob can be defeated during the peaceful mode.
  4. The wither mob can grow till its health bar fills up. It starts its explosion after growing at a certain level.
  5. The wither mob can produce black skull and blue skull explosions.
  6. It cannot break the bedrock, Jigsaw blocks, and other moving blocks as

Conclusion

This blog concludes here. The wither is one of the toughest challenges for players and other mobs as well. The players need to be very cautious during the play. The players have to maintain a certain level of distance, and the players have to wait for a certain distance in order to defeat the wither mob.
