I just saw a weird paper texture that i dint see before, or my eyes are tricking me.
 * No, that is the "armor" that the Wither "wears" when it hits 50% HP. It's the same principle as a charged Creeper. Zoythrus 00:42, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

When will someone update Sethbling's filter to let us have WitherArmor? Spy227X 19:48, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

Spawning
I just have a small question: how did we get the pics in the page?what program was used? I have MCedit and I tried that but it didn't work75.187.200.145 02:55, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

I recently read a tweet directed at dinnerbone that was something along the lines of, "surely, dinnerbone, you know where this new boss mob will spawn?" to which dinnerbone replied (again, paraphrasing), "new boss mob? I've nether heard of it!". I don't know if this can be cited as concrete evidence, but I'm fairly certain we'll see the wither feature as a nether boss in the next update. -Yoessieff P.S. the comment above mine isn't actually mine, whoever wrote it forgot to sign it with tildes so i figured i may as well do it for him so the comments are separate.75.187.200.145 02:55, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

Glass?
I have a question. Can the Wither see through glass blocks?

No, same with Leaf blocks. Please sign your posts with four ~s. Spy227X 20:52, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

Wither spawn ID.
Does any one have a Wither Spawn ID? I want to try the wither out. :D If you know, Please tell me at my talk page ASAP. Thanks in advance! :D Spencer10APSC 00:20, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

383:64, but that does not work. Try this mod. Spy227X 17:35, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

Skeleton?
To me it looks like an inverted skeleton skull. The head of this mob that is to not confuse anyone.Jimmyoakmeister 04:59, 28 August 2012 (UTC)

Possible lighting bug may be a 'super power'
I think that the lighting bug is more like a 'super power' because the Wither is a boss afterall right? Comment back saying your thoughts about this! 31.51.136.218 22:28, 29 August 2012 (UTC)CEE72games

 * I removed several discussions because they were either speculation or they were off-topic. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 04:35, 30 August 2012 (UTC)


 * I understand why you did that, but why not move it to a different page instead of deleting it completely? is it easier? cuz i bet 5 bucks that you have gone off topic before and another five that you delete this message... and dont just troll me cuz your angry (chose not to sign, if its that bad of an issue not signing, then i will) –Preceding unsigned comment was added by BazzarLarry (Talk&#124;Contribs) 17:35, 30 August 2012 (UTC).

 * I didn't move it to a different page because that type of discussion generally doesn't have a place anywhere on this wiki. The only place it might've been moved to would be a user talk page, and then you have to problem of whose talk page gets it, and how to make people aware that it's there, etc. So it's generally better to just remove such discussion and, if necessary, encourage people to post such discussion on the forums instead.
 * I have, of course, gone off-topic before, and more times than I can count - after all, I've been on the internet for a decade now, having frequented a dozen-plus different forums and wikis in this time. But that's neither here nor there; if you happened to lie in the past and got away with it, that doesn't justify lying in the present, does it? ;)
 * Don't worry about me trolling, and I'm not angry, even if that's what it might seem like from my comment above. ;) As for signing posts, it's considered good etiquette to do so, since it allows other users to immediately see when a comment was posted and by who, without having to look through a page's history. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 18:37, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

Wither Skull
will the wither skull be like the skeletons arrows, or will it explode and/or be like a splash potion, since it has an effect. Pogoman122 16:25, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
 * It's like a combination of the Ghast/Blaze fireball and splash potion. --M0rphzone 22:50, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

Regeneration Rate
It appears to regenerate half a heart every second. But it looks like it does so in a sort of "heal heal skip" pattern. Can someone please look at the code and find out more precisely? Cultist O 21:10, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

utility mob?
On the wither page, it says the wither is a utility mob. I have seen no evidence that it can "serve" the player. Can someone please either explan it to me or correct the page? 184.1.103.140 21:36, 7 September 2012 (UTC)


 * Utility status of a mob does not refer to "serving" the player (which is why dogs and cats are not.) Rather it refers to being constructable by the player. You can however use the wither to defend against or kill other mobs, and even to dig tunnels or gather resources if you are clever. Cultist O 22:32, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
