Minecraft Dungeons:Wither Skeleton

A wither skeleton is an undead hostile mob that can be found within the flames of the nether DLC of Minecraft Dungeons.

Behavior
Wither skeletons run at high speed toward the hero and strike with their sword, dealing melee damage, and inflicting the effect that deals some additional damage over time. Unlike in the original game, they also have a ranged variant that wields the red snake. After attacking a target, they retreat for a few moments before rushing again. They are also capable of sensing heroes even with the Shadow Form.

Wither skeletons move faster, are not immune to lava, and do not attack piglins, unlike within the original game.
