Ghasts not killable by fire
I watched a ghast go into lava yesterday, tip over onto it's side, and die. Nothing else seemed to be around it. It just went too low and caught fire.
 * I can confirm this. I often see Ghasts run into pillars of lava, where they quickly burn and die. The hitbox seems a bit weird, but lava definitely can kill them. --Nmaster64 15:50, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Maybe the flames are just visual, and they are actually suffocating? --Fishrock123 11:12, 15 November 2010 (CST)
 * The player doesnt suffocate in lava, why would mobs? And the damage by touching lava itself is different than damage from burning. please specify. --BlueLegion 17:35, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Fireballs
Does anyone know what the TNT power of the Ghast fireballs is? In terms of creating a safe base in the Nexus I now use metal doors as windows to look outside without being shot upon instantly. Glass shatters with ease and even wooden doors aren't safe from a direct hit. Does anyone else have more info? Alphasoldier 15:29, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

i think ghast fireballs have a code (since they are an item being dropped repeatedly) but what might it be? if they do have a code they might be hackable and they should have a page to themselves. --Spek 00:00, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

Cannonballs
Does anyone know what item picture is used for the Ghast's fireballs? I think it's the snowball, but I haven't tried confirming it with a texture pack. Jaeil 21:17, 21 November 2010 (CST)
