Blaze

Blaze is a type of mob that can be seen floating around The Nether. They catch fire for a short while before making their attack in the form of a three round burst of fireballs. After the attack they have a short cool down and then they will catch fire and attack again. Their bodies are made up of a head atop a central column of smoke, and three rotating sections, each rotating section contains four floating yellow rods. They drop Blaze Rods, and can spawn naturally or from a spawner in Nether Ruins.

The triple fireballs they shoot can set players on fire. Unlike fireballs fired by Ghast, they are not explosive. They are part of Beta 1.9

Trivia

 * Lighting has no effect on their mob spawner, as Nether mobs typically do not evaluate light when spawning.
 * This mob takes damage over time from standing in water similar to Endermen.
 * Blazes cannot shoot if trapped in Cobweb.
 * Blazes have no fully render block "body" to say. The mob actually has a constant stream of smoke or fire for its core.
