Ender Dragon

The Ender Dragon is the final boss, residing in the End dimension. It soars over the End, protected by Ender Crystals that heal it. Defeating it not only grants a substantial XP reward but also unlocks the End Gateway, leading to End Cities and the coveted Elytra.

The Ender Dragon's strength lies in its ability to heal from Ender Crystals perched on tall obsidian pillars. To defeat it, prioritize destroying these crystals. The dragon unleashes Dragon Breath and fireballs, creating lingering damage zones that can quickly drain your health. It also performs a Charge Attack, swooping down to knock players back.

During the Perch Phase, the dragon lands on the End Portal, becoming vulnerable to melee attacks. This is your best chance to deal significant damage using a Sharpness V sword.
Wither

The Wither is one of the most destructive and dangerous boss mobs in Minecraft. This three-headed, floating, undead creature is manually summoned by arranging three Wither Skeleton skulls on a T-shaped structure of soul sand or soul soil. Once unleashed, it wreaks havoc, attacking anything in its sight. It primarily appears in the Overworld but can also be summoned in the Nether or the End.

Upon summoning, the Wither builds up power and unleashes a massive explosion. It fires black and blue Wither Skulls, with blue skulls being more powerful and harder to detect. Its attacks inflict the Wither effect, draining health over time. When its health drops below 50%, the Wither becomes immune to arrows, enters Berserk Mode, and charges at players while regenerating health.

To tackle the Wither, arm yourself with a fully enchanted Netherite sword with Smite V and a Power V bow. Wear full Netherite armor with Protection IV or Blast Protection IV to withstand explosions. Stock up on Strength II, Regeneration, and Healing potions, and carry Milk buckets to counteract the Wither effect. Golden Apples and Totems of Undying can provide additional healing.
Summon the Wither underground in a confined space to limit its movement. Use your bow for long-range attacks before its health drops below 50%, then switch to your Smite V sword for close combat. Use obsidian or cobblestone to block its projectiles, and heal as necessary.
Warden
Image: ensigame.com
The Warden is a formidable, blind mob found in the Deep Dark biome, particularly near Ancient Cities. It's designed to be an overwhelming force for players who venture too close without caution. Although non-hostile by nature, the Warden becomes extremely dangerous when it detects vibrations.

The Warden is blind but senses players through vibrations from movement or block interactions. It delivers devastating melee attacks that can kill even well-armored players and uses a sonic boom to deal long-range damage, ignoring obstacles. With high health and resistance, defeating it is a challenge. The best strategy is to avoid detection by sneaking.

If combat is unavoidable, use a Power V bow from a distance and a Sharpness V Netherite sword for close encounters. Wear full Netherite armor with Protection IV and carry Milk buckets to remove the Slowness effect. Equip yourself with Night Vision, Regeneration, Healing, and Speed potions to stay alert and agile. If the Warden gets too close, use Ender Pearls or take cover, ensuring minimal noise to escape safely.
Ravager
Image: ensigame.com
The Ravager is a large, aggressive beast that appears during Pillager Raids on villages. It can be seen alone or with a Pillager, Evoker, or Vindicator riding on its back. With high health and immense strength, the Ravager is one of the most dangerous raid mobs, capable of destroying crops, leaves, and certain blocks as it charges through a village.

The Ravager is a massive, hostile beast that spawns during Pillager Raids. It has high health and delivers devastating melee attacks, often carrying Pillagers, Evokers, or Vindicators on its back. The Ravager charges at players, breaking leaves, crops, and some blocks in its path. It can also roar, knocking players back and disabling shields.

To defeat it, use a Power V bow from a distance before switching to a Sharpness V or Smite V Netherite sword for close combat. Wear Protection IV armor and bring Regeneration and Healing potions for sustained health. Dodging its charge and attacking from the sides or behind is the best way to minimize damage.
Evoker
Image: ensigame.com
The Evoker is a dangerous spell-casting villager found in Woodland Mansions and during Pillager Raids. It's the only mob that drops the Totem of Undying, making it a valuable target. Despite its low health, the Evoker poses a significant threat due to its powerful magical attacks.
Attack Patterns & How to Defeat

The Evoker uses three main attacks: summoning Fangs that emerge from the ground, Vexes—flying minions that deal high damage—and a defensive spell that turns nearby sheep red. Although the Evoker has low health, it can cause significant damage if not quickly dealt with.
Image: ensigame.com
To defeat it, use a Power V bow from a distance or a Sharpness V Netherite sword for a swift melee kill. Wear Protection IV armor and bring Healing and Regeneration potions to withstand Vex attacks. Prioritize killing the Evoker first in raids to stop it from summoning Vexes, then deal with the remaining enemies.
Enderman
Image: ensigame.com
The Enderman is a tall, neutral mob found in the Overworld (at night), the Nether, and the End. It becomes hostile if a player looks directly at it or attacks it. Endermen can teleport, pick up blocks, and are immune to projectile attacks. They are most commonly found in the End, where they spawn in large numbers.

Endermen become hostile when looked at directly or attacked. They teleport to avoid projectiles and water, making them difficult to hit from a distance. They attack with strong melee hits and can pick up and place blocks.
Image: ensigame.com
To defeat an Enderman, use a Sharpness V sword, as bows are ineffective due to their teleportation. Wear a carved pumpkin to avoid provoking them accidentally and use water or a two-block-high shelter for safety. Protection IV armor and Regeneration potions help you survive their strong melee attacks.
Piglin Brute
Image: ensigame.com
The Piglin Brute is a powerful, hostile mob found in Bastion Remnants in the Nether. Unlike regular Piglins, it is always aggressive, does not barter or get distracted by gold, and wields a golden axe. With high health and strong melee attacks, the Piglin Brute is one of the most dangerous mobs in Bastions.

The Piglin Brute is a highly aggressive, stronger variant of the Piglin found in Bastion Remnants. Unlike regular Piglins, it's always hostile, does not get distracted by gold, and has high health and strong melee attacks with a golden axe. It deals massive damage and, lacking armor, is vulnerable to attacks.
Image: ensigame.com
To defeat it, use a Power V bow from a distance or a Sharpness V Netherite sword for quick melee combat. Wear Protection IV Netherite armor to withstand its attacks and bring Regeneration and Strength II potions for extra durability. Fighting from higher ground or using shields can help block its powerful strikes.
Shulker
Image: ensigame.com
The Shulker is a hostile mob found in End Cities in the End dimension. It hides inside a shell and becomes hostile when a player comes nearby. Shulkers spawn on purpur blocks and attack by shooting homing projectiles that inflict Levitation, making players float and vulnerable to fall damage.

The Shulker hides inside its shell and attacks by shooting homing projectiles that cause Levitation, making players vulnerable to fall damage. It can teleport to avoid attacks and closes its shell for high damage resistance.
Image: ensigame.com
To defeat a Shulker, use a Sharpness V sword for melee when its shell is open or a Power V bow if it's hard to reach. Wear Feather Falling boots and use water buckets or Ender Pearls to avoid fall damage. Milk buckets remove Levitation, and Protection IV armor helps mitigate damage.
Phantom
Image: ensigame.com
The Phantom is a hostile flying mob that spawns when a player has not slept for three or more in-game nights. It appears at night, flying above the player, and swoops down to attack. Phantoms spawn in the Overworld, typically above the player, and are more common in areas without light sources.
Attack Patterns & How to Defeat

Phantoms spawn at night and fly above the player, swooping down to deal melee damage. Though weak in health, they can cause significant damage if left unchecked. Phantoms often attack in groups, which can overwhelm a player if not dealt with quickly.
Image: ensigame.com
To defeat them, use a Bow with Power V to shoot them from a distance while they fly. A Netherite sword with Sharpness V is effective for close combat if needed. Protection IV armor will help minimize damage, and Regeneration and Healing potions can aid in recovery. Night Vision potions can help spot them more easily in the dark. Additionally, sleeping regularly to avoid spawning them is the best strategy to prevent Phantom encounters.
Hoglin
Image: ensigame.com
The Hoglin is a hostile mob found in the Crimson Forest biome in the Nether. It resembles a large, aggressive pig and roams the area in herds. Hoglins are native to the Nether and are commonly seen in this biome, often near Crimson Fungi.
Attack Patterns & How to Defeat

Hoglins attack with powerful melee charges, dealing substantial damage to players. They drop Raw Porkchops and can be bred with Crimson Fungi. Hoglins are immune to fire but are vulnerable to Warped Fungus, which can be used to lure or repel them.
Image: ensigame.com
To defeat a Hoglin, use a Sharpness V sword for close combat or a Power V bow for long-range attacks. Wear Protection IV armor to reduce the damage from their charges, and bring Regeneration potions for healing. Strength potions will increase damage output, and Warped Fungus can help control Hoglin movement. Fighting them in open areas will prevent getting cornered by their charges.
