Minecraft: The Beginner's Field Survival Guide: Utility Mobs

If you are reading this, you are probably a resourceful player.

   You have met most of the mobs by now. But not all of them. This time I will show you a strange class of mob known as the utility mobs. These odd beasts are created by your own hand. 

Utility Mobs

Utility Mobs: Iron Golem

    Many of you probably hate hostile mobs, like the zombies or the skeletons. So do the Iron Golems. These  lumbering metal machines are made to battle most hostile mobs, excluding the creeper. They will protect NPC villagers from any attacker within a vicinity of about twelve blocks. If you harm a villager, it will view you as a threat. They have one of the highest numbers of hearts in the game, second only to the Ender Dragon.

 

The way to craft them is to stack two iron blocks on top of each other, and put a pumpkin on top. Then you put two more iron blocks on the block below the pumpkin across from each other. They are relentless fighters, dealing heavy damage with one hit. This would be a good mean of protection for your land.

Utility Mobs: Snow Golem

      These guys track snow wherever they walk. They can be built by stacking two blocks and putting a pumpkin on top. They can be troublesome, though. They throw snowballs at hostile mobs, excluding  creepers. Because of the fact that the snowball does no damage, except against Blazes and the Ender Dragon, all this does is agitate the mob, making the golem almost suicidal.

 It is recommended not to have them near your home because of this. They prefer cooler climates, and due to this, Snow Golems take damage in the Desert, the Jungle, and the Nether. They are also hurt upon contact with water. Snow Golems drop 0-15 snowballs when killed.

      I hope this chapter was helpful to you doods!
