Talk:Skeleton

Please merge Strays with Skeletons
You're thinking "why not merge bows with arrows?" but they are quite similar. I'm excluding Wither Skeletons because they're too different (the drops, the height, the appearance, the weapon of choice, etc.) Otherwise, it would be a load to deal with. I realize that they were together a while back, but looking at the similarities (ranged weapon, drops, height, light level conditions, etc.) I believe we should "remerge" the two pages. 98.230.115.82 14:46, 15 March 2020 (UTC)


 * The stray is a completely different mob though, I don't think it should be merged for that reason. --Morpheus836 (Greymagic27) (talk) 14:50, 15 March 2020 (UTC)

Commands
If I spawn a skeleton with the command /summon skeleton, a normal skeleton would spawn. But if I spawn the skeleton with a custom name or even type in /summon skeleton ~ ~ ~ {}, the skeleton will hold air. If I spawn a mob riding a skeleton, or a skeleton riding a mob, the skeleton will be unarmed. The same thing happens with zombie piglins, and wither skeletons. Is this all a bug? 173.47.246.189 23:00, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
