    Does the wither despawn? Because if not, I would like to have one on a minecart track loop in my base. :D
    Considering he eats the floor under it when inside the cart, no you wouldnt...haha

    You kind of forget that it has a function and a really nice particle effect that would make anyone's home that much better. Also imagine your bragging rights when your home has multiple beacons around it. It doesn't take a lot to show off.
    Yes but use wise its near pointless since it only effects your front lawn.

    Is anyone else not finding any wither skeletons? I haven't seen one and I've been kicking it in the nether, looking, for almost an hour and a half.
    nether fortresses is where they spawn. search there.

    Don't think anyone has mentioned it, but the Wither will ride minecarts, so that is one possible way to trap it.
    Thou art a god among men for this discovery... UNLEASH THE MINE-CARTS!

    Okay. Lets combine it with a gold sword to get a special effect. They could add other properties to this item. But really Minecraft is not been known for reward it's players for anything.

    (My thoughts: WitherStone would be an epic drop. Who knows what mysterious powers it could have. It could wither/poison creatures around it).
    Some sort of wands would be a nice edition...being able to summon lightning / fire / ice / ect. a good toy if nothing else.

    The Skulls where hard to get.
    Its just a grind to get them though....If someone really wanted they could spawn this on a server, given a nether portal, time, exploration, and patience.

    Sure, might take a bit, but considering it would take a lot of preparation to defend against this, it could potentially be used as a VERY bad grief.

    Video finshed The wither admits defeat again! No mods on hard!


    Impressive, but that was ONE HELL of a fight...

    The fact that they can ravage the world that quickly though is still an issue for multiplayer, since, given the resources, anyone can make the boss, anywhere.

    Difficult or not, I think we can all agree that only getting the ability to use the beacon block is a pretty pathetic reward.
    Definitely. especially since you only get 1 star.

    It may be immune to arrows when it gets to half health, but how about dispenser fired fire charges?

    Bleh, never mind...immune to fire.


    Hypothetically I think spawning him in the end and getting a few dozen endermen to beat the living bejesus out of him would work... but still.

    Did you try it?

    No evidence of it not working here: http://www.reddit.co...working_method/

    And he won't break blocks if he doesn't see you.


    I constructed it exactly as shown, and while he didnt shoot at me, he moved around, breaking the walls to bits.

    as for the reddit

    I did exactly that and he just blasted out of his cage immediately.

    He will "eat" a 3x3 hole in any material if he doesn't have a direct path to the player. Apparently, he won't become aggressive if there's never a line of sight between his heads and you.
    Seriously? read more than a page down dude. It does not, work.
    Quote from cecilhowe

    There is no way you tried that, or you did it wrong, because he won't shoot at any mobs he cannot see, including the player....

    However, I suggest you kill your first wither boss real style.



    Exactly; equate it to the first time you played minecraft. How many times did you die before you got it right? A lot.
    Read my bloody post, I said he EATS the wall. He gets near the wall, and destroys a 3x3 section of the wall, this has enough power to destroy obsidian, and he does it to anything in his way, regardless of what hes agro on.

    Finally a very VERY hard mob comes into the game, with quite the reward, only for experienced players, and people ***** about it being too hard. ****ing wow. This is an optional boss fight guys, meant to be a ***** to get through. It is killable, just a very difficult process. Yes games should take effort sometime. In a game where eventually you get to a point where you have a farm for EVERYTHING and are afraid of NOTHING, this comes along to break the monotony. And there is actually already a way to farm these: http://imgur.com/a/uR2LL#0

    So please stop whining.


    this does NOT work. he eats the walls as soon as you touch him. only way it would work is if it was made out of bedrock, as he even eats obsidian.

    Youtube account takes nothing to make....as for capturing it, I have no experience in the mater but fraps, bandicam, hypercam, just to name a few....a google search or 2 could easily answer any questions.

    i only play on hard and i am not whining i have battled him many times and have not lost And really HIS HEALTH REGENARATION SUCKS


    How about a video of this then?

    Also I wouldn't mind the difficulty as much if the jump from difficulty didnt go from casual (creepers, skeletons, ghasts, blazes, zombies) to insane, terraria skeletron prime difficulty.

    I wonder how far his agro range extends?

    If it's not too far, you could just sit far away with a powerful bow.
    Pretty far, and no. He blocks arrows at half health. Also, he attacks ANY other living thing, which can move him around a landscape pretty fast.
