These features may be properly added in a future update, but currently require enabling one or more settings in the "The Wild Update" section of the Game Settings menu.

The warden is a hostile mob summoned by sculk shriekers which is able to do both melee and ranged attacks. Wardens are completely blind and thus rely on vibrations and their sense of smell to identify moving entities, and deal the highest non-explosive damage of any mob in the game.

Spawning

Wardens do not use traditional mob spawning mechanics. When a player activates any sculk shrieker three times, and there isn't another warden within 48 blocks, and the light level is lower than 11, a warden emerges from the ground. Up to 20 attempts are made to spawn a warden within a 11×13×11 box centered on the shrieker.

The warning count for sculk shriekers is specific to each player, not each sculk shrieker. This means that the same player can activate three different sculk shriekers just once, and a warden spawns on the third activation.

Drops

Wardens drop one sculk catalyst and five experience points when killed by a player or tamed wolf.

Behavior

Wardens are blind and wander randomly, even through rails. The warden's hitbox can fit inside a corridor 1 block wide and 3 blocks tall. This allows them to chase foes pathfinding precisely even in small cave corridors. Wardens are immune to knockback and to damage from fire and lava. Water does not slow down a warden and a bubble column has no effect on an aggravated warden. A nearby vibration agitates the warden, which moves toward the location where the vibration originated. It can also smell the area around it, allowing it to zero in on an entity's location. The more vibrations a mob or player makes, the more agitated it grows.

The souls on its chest creates a low throbbing heartbeat sound, in tandem with the Darkness effect. The animation and sound speeds up gradually as the warden becomes more agitated.[1] A warden prefers to track down mobs that it finds most suspicious,[more information needed] rather than the closest one.[2]

Once a warden reaches a high enough level of agitation, it roars and pursues the target. In this alerted state, the warden pathfinds to the target normally, regardless of vibrations made. If a mob or player collides with a warden, or attacks it first, the warden immediately enters its angry state.

Apart from players, a warden tracks down and attacks all other mobs, excluding other wardens. The warden can also follow vibrations made by non-mob entities such as projectiles or minecarts.

After sixty seconds of being "calm" and not detecting any vibrations, the warden burrows back into the ground and despawns. The warden is completely invulnerable while emerging or burrowing, including damage from /kill, though it can still be pushed by entities, pistons or liquids.

The warden's melee attack disables shields for 5 seconds. If the target is still on its search radius and on high ground or hiding behind walls, a warden can charge up a powerful sonic boom. This guided attack can pass through blocks, and is visible with the formation of green-blue particles that are quickly projected out of the warden's chest. It deals 10♥♥♥♥♥ damage, bypassing shields and armor.

          •  uuid: The UUID of the entity that is associated with the anger, stored as four ints.

Advancements

There are no advancements associated with killing the warden. The warden is intended to be a natural disaster that is almost impossible to kill and best avoided.[3] Therefore, killing a warden doesn't count for the Monster Hunter advancement, nor is it needed to receive the Monsters Hunted advancement.[4]

History

This section is missing information about The "nearby_closest" sound was always unused and apparently removed in 22w14a. 
Please expand the section to include this information. Further details may exist on the talk page.
Java Edition
2020Concept art was created with earlier designs for the warden, then known as the "stalker".
Warden (pre-release 1) The original "stalker" design was programmed into the game.
Warden (pre-release 2) Warden (pre-release 2 alternate) A second version of the "stalker" could transform into a form that was less wide and tall when chasing an entity or player, while its regular form was meant to disguise as a treasure totem. This was considered too goofy and insufficiently scary, and was scrapped.
2020Concept art for a "hollowed" design was created.
Warden (pre-release 3) This "hollowed" design was programmed into the game.
It was ultimately considered too gory for Minecraft, so it was scrapped.
October 3, 2020Warden (pre-release 4) The warden is announced at Minecraft Live 2020.
October 6, 2020A set of teaser images of the warden's size and behavior were released on Brandon Pearce's Twitter.
October 16, 2021Warden A revised texture and new behavior was shown at Minecraft Live 2021.
November 26, 2021The warden is revealed to have a sense of smell; it can detect and pathfind toward the general location of a player or mob through a "smelling" action. It also prioritizes smelling the player or mob that it is most suspicious of, rather than the one closest to it.[5][6]
December 18, 2021Showed warden emerge behavior.

A '''minecart with command block''' is an impulse{{only|java|short=y}} or repeating{{only|bedrock|education|short=y}} [[command block]] inside a [[minecart]].

== Obtaining ==

The minecart with command block is obtainable only using the [[command]] {{cmd|give @s command_block_minecart}}, as it does not appear in the creative inventory{{only|BE}} and has no [[crafting]] recipe. It can also be summoned using the command {{cmd|summon command_block_minecart}}. It can be broken like any other minecart, but only the minecart is retained, while the command block is lost.

== Usage ==
{{main|Command Block}}
The minecart with command block combines the functionalities of both minecarts and command blocks. Although the minecart visually contains an impulse command block, it functions more similarly to a repeating command block, and runs its command once every four game [[tick]]s when on an active [[activator rail]]. When it passes over a [[detector rail]] with a [[comparator]] connected next to it, it outputs the command block's result.

== Sounds ==

== Usage ==

When {{control|used}} on a [[mob]], a [[fence]], or a [[wall]], balloons attach to the mob or block, similarly to a [[lead]]. Balloons float into the air faster than the speed the [[player]] flies up, but remain grounded if tied to a fence. If tied to a mob, the balloon floats away and carries the mob into the air, before both eventually [[despawn]] or disappear.

When a balloon is shot by an [[arrow]] or a [[trident]], or floats into a solid block, it pops, summons [[particles]], and is destroyed. It drops nothing. A balloon tied to a fence post bursts when a player strikes it in any direction.

A '''melon slice'''{{efn|Known as '''Melon Slice''' {{in|java}} and '''Melon''' {{in|bedrock}}.}} is a [[food]] item that can be eaten by the [[player]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Block loot ===

{{see also|Tutorials/Pumpkin and melon farming|title1 = Pumpkin and melon farming}}

Melon slices can be obtained by breaking (harvesting) [[melon]]s using any [[tool]] or by hand. [[Axe]]s, followed by [[sword]]s, are the fastest tools for harvesting melons.  A melon drops 3–7 melon slices, when broken; by hand, using a [[tool]], or after being broken by the movement of a [[piston]], with an average of 4.64 slices per melon.

Breaking a melon with a tool enchanted with [[Fortune]] increases the potential number of drops by 1 slice per level, up to a maximum of 9 slices.

== Usage ==

=== Food ===
{{see also|Tutorials/Hunger management|title1=Hunger management}}

To eat a melon slice, press and hold {{control|use}} while it is selected in the hotbar. Eating one restores {{hunger|2}} [[hunger]] and 1.2 hunger 
[[Hunger#Mechanics|saturation]].

=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage}}

=== Composting ===
Placing a melon slice into a [[composter]] has a 50% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

Issues relating to "Warden" are maintained on the bug tracker. Report issues there.

Trivia

  • Some previous names being considered for the warden were the stalker and the hollowed.[7]
    • The stalker iteration was tall, asymmetrical for heterogeneous vibe, and it had a glowing core. It occurred in totems throughout the deep dark. The stalker would stand completely still to any trick players into taking its core and aggravating it, and could transform into a one block high form to prevent players from digging away to cheese it. This iteration, specifically its appearance and transformation mechanic, felt clunky and was more goofy than scary, so it was scrapped by the Mojang developers.[8]
    • The hollowed was designed with the intent of inciting trypophobia and had white flesh with holes in it. That iteration was deemed too gory by the developers and had to be toned down.[9]
    • In the sixth episode of The Secrets of Minecraft, it was jokingly revealed that the warden's personal name is "William", similar to how the ender dragon, the wither, and player characters all have personal joke names. The word was also jokingly broken down into the words: war and den.[7]
  • Brandon Pearce stated in a tweet that the souls in the warden's chest is incredibly important to its lore.[10]
    • He also stated that the warden is inspired by the "monster" heard at the end of the 11 music disc.[11]
  • Coincidentally, in the spinoff game, Minecraft: Story Mode, there is an unrelated character also named The Warden.
  • Although the warden is supposed to be blind, spectating it reveals that it still has normal vision.
