Zombies were the second mob to be added to Minecraft, after humans. That way, the zombie cannot get to the door to break it, and you stay protected from the arrows of Skeletons and the detection of other mobs as you would with a door in your shelter. If the player places a door rotated so having one "closed" appears "open" and vice versa, zombies will not attempt to break them, simply standing in front of them if they wish to enter.Ī popular method of protecting your shelter from zombies in Hard mode without wasting iron is to place a fence gate and wooden pressure plate in front of your door. The Player can also kill zombie mobs by using a bow from a distance so the player will not be vulnerable to attacks. Allowing you to see any creepers in the area providing there is limited number of trees. This way you have a 360 degree view as you come down. Another method is jump up and laying blocks below you, until you build a tower high enough to keep you safe until sunrise. However, this leaves the player vulnerable to creepers that may have spawned in the area due to their immunity to sunlight. Should a player be trapped on the surface outside at dusk, they can dig a single block wide pit 3 blocks deep, seal off the top with a block, and wait for morning light to burn away the undead before climbing out.
Surface zombie populations can be controlled if the player regularly sleeps in a bed at dusk, since zombies will spawn at night if given the chance to do so. Zombies are vulnerable to daylight, lava, fire, and contact with cacti. So bring as many lights as possible to prevent them from spawning. They can come out of nowhere or from dark shadows and kill the player.
In caves, zombies are even more dangerous. They are famous for their ability to join other zombies to chase down their target. Zombies, along with Zombie Pigmen and skeletons, can be damaged by Splash Potions of Healing.ĭespite their weaknesses, zombies must NOT be underestimated. As of snapshot 12w32, like Zombie Pigmen and Skeletons, zombies have a chance of spawning equipped with armor, enchanted or not, wielding an iron sword or iron shovel. If a player is in a small room with several zombies and no escape route, it is advisable to use a blocking and slashing technique this slowly kills the zombies while reducing the damage they inflict. If the player is being pursued by several zombies, then it is necessary to knock each one away in turn so that no single zombie can close in. A player on sufficiently high ground can repeatedly hit a zombie as it approaches, knocking it away each time it comes close. Zombies do not pose much of a threat unless encountered in large groups or in a narrow space. Like most mobs, zombies will always float on water even if their target is below them. Once a zombie has focused on a Villager, the zombie will ignore any other Villagers and the player until its target is killed or when the player attacks it. The Villager(s) will attempt to flee from pursuing zombies. Zombies will attack Villagers within 16 blocks of themselves, ignoring the hazard of direct sunlight. Iron Doors are always safe from zombie attack and destruction. This is only successful on Hard and Hardcore though on other difficulties, the door will crack, but not break. Zombies will attempt to break down wooden doors, continuously banging on them. Zombies standing under trees will prevent them from being burned. If they exit water, they will again be vulnerable to direct sunlight. Being in water negates the effects of direct sunlight, preventing them from burning. However, zombies will make some attempt to seek out shade from the sunlight, or enter bodies of water to protect themselves from burning up. The behavior of the zombies is demonstrated in this video.Īt dawn (when the Sun is 15 degrees or more above the ground), zombies will catch fire and burn once exposed to direct sunlight. This is because when they occupy the space of the door, the game considers their hits as reaching past the door into an adjacent block. Zombies can sometimes deal damage through a closed door, as shown on the picture to the right. Unlike skeletons, zombies do not try to avoid being hit, and continue to pursue the player even when being counter-attacked. Zombies will attempt to avoid obstacles, including sheer cliffs and lava, and would try to find the shortest path towards the player. Zombies spawn in groups of 2-6 and will pursue the player on sight. Zombies moan when wandering around aimlessly, but snarl and gurgle when attacking or injured. A zombie trying to break the door down instead of taking an alternative path.
