A target dummy is an inanimate mob that can be found near the house within the camp of Minecraft Dungeons.
Appearance[]
A target dummy is a dummy made of hay bales in the shape of a zombie. It appears to be wearing the torn up clothes of a husk. There used to be two dummies with one of which surrounded by a small trench which was meant to be used for ranged attacks but was removed.
Spawning[]
Behavior[]
A target dummy has no behavior. It can be used by the hero to test their weapons and artifacts, however summons don't attack it unless a weapon with pet targeting is used. It would take damage, but cannot react since it is an inanimate object.
Sounds[]

'''Snowballs''' are throwable combat items that hit but do not damage most [[Mob|mobs]] on impact.
== Obtaining ==
{{see also|Tutorials/Snow farming}}
=== Mining ===
A [[shovel]] without the [[Silk Touch]] enchantment can get 4 snowballs by breaking a [[snow block]], and 1–8 snowballs by breaking or blasting [[snow layer]]s – one per layer. The [[Fortune]] enchantment does not affect these amounts.
{{IN|bedrock}}, snowballs are dropped from snow layers even when mined with a Silk Touch shovel.<ref>{{bug|MCPE-59729||Snow layers don't drop themselves when mined with a silk touch enchanted shovel}}</ref>
==== Explosions ====
Creeper and TNT [[explosion]]s leave snowballs in the resulting debris field if near snow.
==== Ravagers ====
{{IN|BE}}, Ravagers destroy snow layers, dropping snowballs.
==== Pistons ====
{{IN|BE}}, a block or piston head pushed into the position of snow layers destroys the snow layers, dropping snowballs. 1-3 layers drops 1 snowball, 4-5 layers drops 2 snowballs, 6-7 layers drops 3 snowballs and 8 layers drops 4 snowballs.
=== Mob loot ===
[[Snow golem]]s drop 0–15 snowballs upon death, unaffected by [[Looting]].
=== Chest loot ===

Snowballs can be thrown by {{control|using}} them. There is no charging time or cooldown for firing them,{{Until|java Combat Tests}} meaning they can be thrown as fast as the player can click.
Like other projectiles, snowballs are affected by gravity: their range is the same as those of [[egg]]s and [[ender pearl]]s, less than that of [[arrow]]s fired from [[bow]]s, and more than that of [[splash potion]]s. In [[Bedrock Edition]], players will receive damage and will be knockbacked.
Snowballs deal {{hp|3}} each to [[blaze]]s but they deal no damage to other mobs. Mobs still receive knockback and act the same as if they were being damaged (for example, [[zombified piglin]]s who are hit by snowballs become aggressive). Players {{in|BE}} receive knockback, while players {{in|JE}} are unaffected.<ref>{{bug|MC-3179|||WAI}}</ref>{{Until|java Combat Tests}}
When fighting the [[ender dragon]], [[end crystal]]s are able to be destroyed by snowballs being thrown at them.
Snowball, like other projectiles, can be used to distract the [[warden]]. A warden walks towards the location where the snowball lands to inspect it, giving the player time to escape. However, if snowballs are fired too frequently (at least twice in 5 seconds), the warden walks straight to the player instead.
In the new versions they can hit players but just only in bedrock
=== Dispenser ===
Snowballs can be fired from [[dispenser]]s.
== Sounds ==

Thrown snowballs use the Friendly Creatures sound category for entity-dependent sound events.

* A thrown snowball faces the player in the first-person view, while it appears horizontally rotated in third-person view. This is the case for all throwable items ([[ender pearl]]s, [[egg]]s, snowballs, and all throwable [[potion]]s).
