Talk:Husk

Dispensing armor still the case?
Is this "Dispensing armor on them doesn't work." still the case? If so, could somebody maybe report that to the bug tracker? FVbico (talk) 19:22, 14 July 2018 (UTC)


 * De-verified? Is that a word. But yeah, not true anymore at least. Just have to make sure their CanPickUpLoot is set to 1b, like with zombies and skeletons etc etc. --Pepijn (talk) 04:25, 15 July 2018 (UTC)

Variant
Could we please not write this article as if the husk is JUST a zombie variant. Treat it as its own mob, so don't say stuff like "They behave similar to regular zombies, with the following differences". When people read this article they should know everything about husks, not have to look up zombies first. --Pepijn (talk) 19:33, 14 July 2018 (UTC)

Spawning
The article says 20% of husks will spawn as zombies instead but on the zombie article it says 80% of zombies will spawn as husks. The actual desert spawn rates for zombies are 1% for zombie villagers, 19% for normal zombies and 80% for husks. Four fifths of all normal and zombie villagers that attempt to spawn in deserts will be replaced by husks. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by 80.44.50.16 (talk) at 19:06, 31 August 2018 (UTC).

Testing
How about adding a needs testing tag in the part that states that if the husk transforms into a zombie underwater, the zombie has to be underwater to convert to a drowned?--Delibirda (talk) 09:07, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * That's easily verifiable. Just place a husk egg on the ocean floor in creative mode and watch what happens. I know of no situation where a zombie underwater doesn't convert to a drowned. I don't believe that needs a testing tag. ~ Amatulic (talk) 06:06, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

Breaking down doors
Do zombies/husks and any other mobs attempt to break down doors if the door is not in a village? I built a house in a desert and put a door, and later when I opened it there was this husk standing there. I was in creative.

 * Yes, but depends on difficulty setting. FVbico (talk) 08:29, 13 February 2020 (UTC)

Reinforcements
Since husks' AI was just copied and pasted over from zombies when they got their own ID, do they spawn reinforcements? ManosSef (talk) 19:17, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Good question. I've never even seen zombies do this, but then I play Bedrock, so this may be a Java thing. Looking at the Zombie, it doesn't seem to be Java. One could probably test it in a flat world to see what happens. In daytime (so you don't get zombies or skeletons), don the best possible armor, hatch a husk spawn egg in creative, then switch to survival and hit the husk with your fists a few times to see if reinforcements come. ~ Amatulic (talk) 21:30, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
 * My testing gave me some interesting results. Zombies, husks, drowned and zombified piglins can actually spawn reinforcements, but these will always be regular zombies, regardless of what mob spawned the reinforcements. ManosSef (talk) 20:24, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Interesting. Husks don't burn in sunlight. So, do they call zombie reinforcements who immediately start burning in the sun?
 * Are you testing in Java or Bedrock? Also, how did you conduct your tests? If you're using Java, I can try the same test in Bedrock. Amatulic (talk) 20:41, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
 * This is my testing process $$.
 * Create a superflat world with dirt layer raised to 38 or more.
 * Set game rules doDaylightCycle and doWeatherCycle to false.
 * Set time to midnight, because we need no light so as to spawn reinforcements.
 * Do not move after setting time to midnight, so that any mob that spawns will stay at bay.
 * Give yourself a husk spawn egg and two dirt blocks.
 * Set game mode to survival and pillar up with these two blocks.
 * Spawn the husk and change its zombie.spawn_reinforcements attribute to 1024 with the /attribute command (so the test might not work in Bedrock).
 * Punch the husk while in third person back mode to look around you and see if zombies are spawning close to the player.
