TestTestTest
A warden is a extremely powerful but easily avoidable hostile mob summoned by sculk shriekers in the deep dark biome. It attacks by swinging its arms downward, dealing the strongest melee damage of all mobs, and can also release a sonic boom attack that immediately strikes the target, pierceing through obstacles and deals damage that cannot be reduced except by the Resistance effect. Wardens are completely blind and rely on vibrations, smell, and touch to detect players and mobs to attack, and can therefore be evaded via sneaking, diversions (snowballs, arrows, etc.) and wool.
Spawning
A warden emerges from the ground after being summoned by sculk shriekers
Wardens do not use standard mob spawning mechanics. They are instead spawned when a player activates naturally generated sculk shriekers four times instead and if there isn't already another warden within 24 blocks of it. A warden spawns by emerging from the ground near the shrieker that summoned it, taking about 6.7 seconds to do so and being completely invulnerable until fully emerged.
The warning count for sculk shriekers is specific to each player rather than each sculk shrieker. This means that the player can activate four different shriekers in different locations and a warden emerges after the fourth activation. The light level does not have an effect on warden spawning.
Up to 20 attempts are made to spawn a warden within an 11×13×11 cubic area, which is centered on the shrieker. During each attempt, the game picks a random column from the y axis, then the game picks the topmost block in that column with a top surface with full collision and the block above must have no collision (the spawning warden cannot collide with any existing entities or liquids; wardens must not have water inside their spawn block, where their feet go, but they can spawn with water in the second and third block. For example, a pressure plate with water flowing on top is still a valid location).
In Java Edition, warden spawning can be toggled on or off with the game rule doWardenSpawning.
Drops
A warden drops a single sculk catalyst upon death, unaffected by Looting. It also drops 5 experience if killed by either a player or a tamed wolf.
Behavior
A warden is blind and seeks out targets by sensing vibrations and by sniffing.
After spawning, wardens wander randomly around the world and move toward nearby vibrations originating from players, mobs and non-mob sources including projectiles and minecarts. A warden also periodically sniffs the area around it, allowing it to zero in on targets even if they don't create vibrations. As wardens sniff, pick up vibrations or are touched by other players or mobs, wardens become increasingly agitated.
Idle
A warden can fit inside any space that is 1 block wide and 3 blocks tall, allowing it to chase players and mobs through small corridors.
Wardens are immune to damage from fire or lava and do not take knockback. They pursue through blocks that are usually avoided by other mobs, including rails[1], cacti, or magma blocks.
A warden, whether angered or not, gives 12 seconds of Darkness to all players within a 20 block radius of it every 6 seconds. The souls in its chest make a low heartbeat that occurs in tandem with the Darkness effect. The heartbeat speeds up as the warden becomes increasingly agitated.[2] A warden prefers to track down the most suspicious targets, rather than the ones closest to it.[3]
A warden listens to all vibrations within a 16 block radius, except those from other wardens, armor stands, dying mobs and players in Creative or Spectator mode. Like with sculk sensors, they cannot detect vibrations from a sneaking player that is moving, jumping, falling or shooting a projectile. A warden has a 2-second cooldown between detecting vibrations.
A warden is aware of all targetable entities within a 49×51×49 box around itself. If the warden has a targetable entity, is not investigating any disturbances, and is otherwise idle, it pathfinds toward the closest entity, prioritizing players over mobs. While pathfinding, the warden can begin a 'sniff' behavior and animation. This takes around 4.2 seconds and has a 5-10 seconds cooldown. A warden can still sniff out sneaking players, despite that they cannot detect vibrations from them.
Suspense
Wardens keep track of how angry they are at each suspect as a number from 0 to 150. When a warden notices a vibration, it adds anger to the player or mob that caused the vibration. It adds 10 anger if the vibration was from a projectile or 35 anger for other vibrations. However, if two projectiles from the same player/mob are heard by the warden within five seconds, it instead adds the full 35 anger toward that player/mob. Wardens do not add anger toward a mob/player if the projectile was shot from more than 30 blocks away, although the projectile does count toward the counter of two projectiles. Anger decays at a rate of 1 per second and immediately clears if the targeted player switches to Creative or Spectator modes, the target or warden leaves the dimension, or if the target dies.
A warden adds 35 anger toward any mob that directly touches it. This effect has a 1-second cooldown.
When it finishes sniffing, a warden adds 35 anger to the nearest mob or player within 6 blocks horizontally and 20 blocks vertically, a cylindrical volume centered on the warden.
Once a warden reaches 80 anger with a target, it roars for 4.2 seconds, adds another 20 anger, and pursues the target. In this angered state, the warden chases the target normally despite being blind. A warden also enters its hostile state and adds 100 anger if directly attacked by a mob. If the attacking player or mob is within 5 blocks, it skips its roaring animation altogether and immediately gives chase.
A warden is biased toward player vibrations, attacks, and contact - even if a warden is angrier at another mob, it still attacks the player first as long as they have angered the warden as well. This is not true of any other mob.[4]
After 60 seconds of being "calm" and not detecting any vibrations or sniffing any mobs, a warden burrows back into the ground and despawns, unless it has been named. If the warden is floating on a liquid, it instead immediately despawns without any burrowing animation. During its emerging/burrowing animation, a warden cannot detect any vibrations, and can take damage only from /kill, though it can still be pushed by entities, pistons, or liquids. Named wardens do not dig or despawn.
Attacks
A warden's melee attack has a cooldown of 0.9 seconds and disables shields for 5 seconds, dealing 16
× 8 to 45
× 22.5 health points depending on the difficulty.
The Warden's sonic boom attack
If a warden cannot reach its target, it switches to its ranged attack: a sonic boom. It does so when the following are true:
- It has been 10 seconds since the warden detected the target
- It has been 5 seconds since the warden last used a melee or ranged attack
- The target is within 15 blocks horizontally and 20 blocks vertically of the warden.
The sonic boom aims directly at the target, making it impossible to dodge, passing through blocks and other mobs without damaging them. A warden takes 1.7 seconds to charge and unleashes the attack, which instantly hits the target as long as the target is within attack range. The attack takes an additional 1.3 seconds to cool down before the warden can use melee attacks again for a total of 3 seconds. The sonic boom is visible via green-blue particles that are projected out of the warden's chest. This attack bypasses shields, armor, enchantments, blocks and even the wither armor of the wither. Only the Resistance status effect can reduce this attack's damage.
Sounds
Java Edition:
Wardens use the Hostile Creatures sound category for entity-dependent sound events.

A '''bone''' is an [[item]] primarily obtained from [[skeleton]]s and similar mobs. It can be crafted into [[Bone Meal|bone meal]] or used to tame wild [[Wolf|wolves]].
== Obtaining ==
=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|bone}}
=== Mob loot ===
Skeletons, [[wither skeleton]]s, [[skeleton horse]]s, and [[stray]]s may drop 0–2 bones upon death. The maximum drop is increased by 1 per level of Looting, for a maximum of 0-5 bones with Looting III.
{{IN|bedrock}}, [[salmon]], [[cod]], [[pufferfish]], and [[tropical fish]] have 25% chance to drop 1-2 bones upon death. The maximum drop is increased by 1 to 2 per level of Looting, for a maximum of 2-8 bones with Looting III.
Salmon (small and medium size) have 25% chance to drop 1 bone upon death, The maximum drop is increased by 1 to 2 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 2-7 bones with Looting III. The chance of dropping bones increases by 1% per looting level, so with Looting III there is up to a 28% chance of bones dropping.
=== Fishing ===
Bones can also be obtained by [[fishing]] as part of the junk category. The best chance of catching a bone is achieved without the [[Luck of the Sea]] enchantment, yielding a 1.1% chance.
== Usage ==
=== Helmet ===
[[File:Steve wearing Bone.png|thumb|right|75px]]
[[File:Alex wearing Bone.png|thumb|right|75px]]
While a bone cannot be equipped in the head slot in Survival mode, equipping it using commands causes it to appear in the player's mouth.
=== Taming ===
Using a bone on a wild [[wolf]] has a {{frac|1|3}} chance of [[taming]] it. Bones cannot tame a hostile wolf or a wolf that has already been tamed. However, bones can be used to attract the attention of the tamed ones.
=== Crafting ingredient ===
A bone can be crafted into 3 bone meal.

A '''bundle''' is an [[item]] that can store up to a stack's worth of mixed [[item]] types within itself in a single [[inventory]] slot. Items that stack to 16 occupy more space within the bundle, and items that do not stack occupy the entire bundle without allowing space for any other items.

|2=Item stack sizes (top row) and the number of bundle slots they take up (middle row). Sticks stack to 64, so they take up one bundle slot; ender pearls stack to 16, so they take up four; and swords do not stack, so they take up the whole bundle. So, for instance, a bundle may have 32 sticks and 8 ender pearls inside (bottom), which take up a total of {{Tooltip|(32×1)|32 Sticks}}+{{Tooltip|(8×4)|8 Ender Pearls}}=64 bundle slots.
}}
Bundles are used to store different [[item|item type]]s in the same [[inventory]] slot. This does not, however, increase the total capacity of the slot: each bundle has 64 "bundle slots" and each item placed in the bundle takes up these slots similar to how they take up space in a normal inventory slot: items that stack to 64 take up 1 bundle slot, items that stack to 16 (for example, [[egg]]s) take up 4, and items that do not stack (such as tools/weapons/armor) take up the whole bundle, all 64 slots.
Although bundles themselves cannot be stacked, a bundle can be placed inside another (nested): the inner bundle itself uses 4 slots plus the number of slots already occupied by the items in that bundle.<ref>{{bug|MC-203567||Bundles can be placed inside of bundles|WAI}}</ref>
To place items inside a bundle, either (1) pick up the bundle in the inventory and right-click on the item(s) to be placed inside or (2) pick up the item(s) and right-click on the bundle. When placing bundles inside another bundle, the interface uses the first method: picking up Bundle A and right clicking on Bundle B attempts to store Bundle B inside A.
Bundles can be {{ctrl|used}} inside the inventory to take out the last item put in. In this way, items are accessible LIFO (last in, first out). When {{ctrl|used}} outside the inventory, it dumps all the items out into the world.
Hovering over the bundle shows its contained items in its inventory slots. The number of bundle slots used is displayed as ''<fullness>''/64 in the tooltip. If the bundle is full, then the empty slots are greyed out with an <span class="invslot">{{SlotSprite|Bundle full}}</span>.
[[Shulker box]]es cannot be placed inside of bundles.

A '''pickaxe''' is a [[tools|tool]] required to mine [[ore]]s, [[rock|rocks]], rock-based blocks and metal-based [[block]]s quickly and obtain them as items. A pickaxe mines faster and can obtain more block types as items depending on the material it is made from.
== Obtaining ==
=== Crafting ===
Pickaxes are crafted using 2 [[stick]]s and 3 identical units of tool material.

=== Trading ===
{{IN|bedrock}}, novice-level toolsmith [[Villager|villagers]] have a 25% chance to sell stone pickaxes for one [[emerald]], Journeyman-level toolsmith villagers have a 25% chance to sell enchanted iron pickaxes for 3 emeralds, and master-level toolsmith villagers always sell enchanted diamond pickaxes for 13 emeralds.
{{IN|java}}, novice-level toolsmith villagers have a 40% chance to sell a stone pickaxe for one emerald, journeyman-level toolsmith villagers have a 40% chance to sell an enchanted iron pickaxe for 7–22 emeralds, and a master-level toolsmith always sells an enchanted diamond pickaxe for 18–35 emeralds.
The enchantments are the same as the ones obtained from an [[enchantment table]] at levels 5–19.
=== Villager gifts ===
{{IN|JE}}, toolsmith [[villager]]s throw stone pickaxes at players under the [[Hero of the Village]] effect.
=== Mob loot ===
{{IN|BE}}, [[pillager]]s and [[vindicator]]s have a chance of dropping a damaged iron pickaxe when killed during a [[raid]]. The pickaxe has a 50% chance of being enchanted with random enchantment(s).
== Usage ==
=== Mining ===
A pickaxe is used to break stone and metal-based materials faster. Breaking a block with a pickaxe consumes one use (one durability point). No durability is consumed for blocks that break instantly. Pickaxes have different amounts of uses based on the type:
* Wooden: 60
* Stone: 132
* Iron: 251
* Golden: 33
* Diamond: 1562
* Netherite: 2032
Different qualities of pickaxe are required to successfully harvest certain ores and blocks. For example, while [[stone]] can be mined with any pickaxe, [[gold ore]] must be mined with an [[iron]], [[diamond]], or [[netherite]] pickaxe, or else the player harvests no ore. Different pickaxes also mine many materials at different speeds:
==== Speed ====
The following table shows the time it takes to break each type of block.
* A <span style="background-color:#FFC7CE;color:#9C0006;">red</span> background indicates that the block cannot be harvested with that type of pickaxe.
* A <span style="background-color:#FFFFDD;color:#8A7600;">yellow</span> background indicates that the block cannot be harvested with that type of pickaxe, but still drops something.
* A <span style="background-color:#C6EFCE;color:#006100;">green</span> background indicates that the block can be harvested with that type of pickaxe.
<!-- Table is sorted by hardness (mining time with diamond shows well), then by name -->

=== Weapon ===
Hitting a mob with a pickaxe is a stronger attack than using fists. Pickaxes lose 2 durability when used as a weapon.
==== Java Edition ====
Pickaxes have an attack speed modifier of −2.8, meaning they take about 0.83 seconds to [[Damage#Attack cooldown|recover]]. All pickaxes have an attack speed of 1.2 hits per second. They deal different damage based on the type:

Issues relating to "Warden" are maintained on the bug tracker. Report issues there.
Trivia
- Although the warden is supposed to be blind, spectating it reveals that it still has normal vision.[10]
- Once warden has smelled a target 3 times, it will be angered and chases the target. So, sneaking and hiding is not a good way to avoid it since it could smell you.
- The concept for the warden was originally planned for the Nether Update as a "blind piglin that could only respond to sounds" that could be found within a "new biome".[11]
- Brandon Pearce considers the warden as something entirely new as it isn't a boss or a mini boss or a regular enemy but a force of nature: "when a tornado is barreling towards you, you don't try to kill it - you run away! The warden is exactly the same."[12]
- Brandon's thought process on finally giving the warden a drop after he was heavily against it was the warden should never drop something that is important or hard to get that would be worth going through the trouble of fighting it. In this case, fighting a warden is not worth a sculk catalyst. This change was made for renewability farms and tech players.[13]
- When Chi Wong was working the warden's digging animation he wanted to make sure the timing was right and make sure while it was going down, it's not going down like an elevator, but it actually digs, and the feeling Chi wanted to convey with it is it has tons of rage, it is annoyed, and it wants to go down.[14]
- The warden is the most concepted and worked through mob in Minecraft in terms of sound design.[15] When Brandon was first developing the warden, sound design was important to him, and the warden was designed with that in mind.[16]
- While designing the warden, Brandon wanted to hear the player's "heartbeat" as the warden got closer for anticipation but he thought that it felt out or place and didn't make sense to hear the player's heartbeat. His solution was for something else to make the heartbeat, and thus the warden gained a heartbeat. It was also a design choice to mimic some really interesting sound design without breaking immersion. It also adds more to the warden itself and lore reasons as to why a warden has a heartbeat.[17][18]
- Some previous names being considered for the warden were the shade,[19] the stalker and the hollowed.[20]
- The shade was a vaguely humanoid translucent mob with glowing eyes. It was meant to be a more ambient mob, which would stand in darkness with only its eyes visible and would slowly fade away as the player approached it. It would also imitate the noise of other mobs, making it sound as though they were right behind the player. Rather than an iteration on the warden, by then called the "stalker", the shade had come to be a completely separate mob to the stalker, though in some concepts it was meant to be sort of complementary, living in the ancient cities and helping the stalker by tricking players into alerting it. It was eventually scrapped due to a feeling that it would grow to become annoying rather than creepy, and so the team could better focus on developing the stalker.[21]
- The stalker iteration was tall and asymmetrical with a glowing core, sometimes referred to as a chest crystal.[22] It occurred in totems throughout the deep dark. The stalker would stand completely still to trick players into taking its core and aggravating it, and could transform into a form one block high form to prevent players from escaping through small tunnels. This iteration, specifically its appearance and transformation mechanic, felt clunky and was deemed more goofy than scary, so it was scrapped by the Mojang Studios gameplay developers. The vibration-sensing aspect, which was developed in this version, however, was passed down to and refined in the later iterations.[23][24]
- The hollowed was designed with the intent of inciting trypophobia and had white flesh with holes in it. According to Brandon Pearce, its design was an experiment to see how far the boundaries of Minecraft could be pushed and to try and draw a line as to what would be acceptable. The design had to ultimately be toned down multiple times due to said metaphorical line being crossed and after many back-and-forths between the developers, the directors and art team, a design similar to the current one was landed on.[25][26]
- The warden also had a number of other mechanics and abilities planned:
- If the player managed to get out of the warden's attack and pathfinding range but still be within its detection range, the warden would use a "mind-altering" attack that would cause the player to move erratically (walking forward would cause the player to go backwards, etc.) and deal damage overtime. The mechanic was eventually scrapped due to being deemed too complicated.[27][28]
- The warden would destroy blocks or burrow through them. The former was rejected due to the developers wanting to limit the number of "destructive" mobs there are in the game and the latter was rejected due to being too difficult to implement.[28]
- The warden could hide the player's hunger bar and health bar.[29]
- Brandon Pearce wanted the warden to be immune to damage to discourage players from fighting it, but he didn't think that would work for a sandbox game.[30]
- The warden would originally burn when exposed to daylight.[31]
- In the Bedrock Beta/Preview 1.18.30.32 the warden would dig back down when exposed in daylight but it was changed so the warden doesn't dig back down but stays when exposed to daylight in Beta/Preview 1.19.0.20.
- The warden and sculk were inspired by Lovecraftian horror as the developers wanted to make something that wasn't in the traditional scary like jumpscares and etc. but in a mysterious and unknown scary.[32]
- In the fifth episode of Minecraft Now, it was revealed by Jasper Boerstra that the warden went through over 175 different concept iterations and they have explored everything because they wanted the warden to be something really special and also for it to be scary, beautiful, ugly cute and have some empathy.[33]
- In the sixth episode of The Secrets of Minecraft, it was jokingly revealed that the warden's personal names are "Jonathan" and "William", depending on the scene, similar to how the player, the ender dragon or the wither all have personal joke names.[20] "Warden" itself was also jokingly broken down into "War! Dens!" in the description.
- "Jonathan" can be seen on a blackboard for name suggestions alongside "the stalker" and "the hollowed".
- It jokingly explained that the name "warden" was the result of calling it "William" and spelling it wrong.
- In the tenth episode, both names were used when Narrator spotted the warden behind him.[34] He mistakenly called the warden Jonathan before correcting himself as William, foreshadowing Jonathan Minecraft, who appears in the eleventh and final episode leading into Around the Minecraft World in 80 Biomes.[35]
- Brandon Pearce stated in a tweet that the souls in the warden's chest is important to its lore.[36]
- He also stated that the warden is inspired by the mystery heard at the end of the music disc "11".[37]
- Coincidentally, in the spin-off game, Minecraft: Story Mode, there is an unrelated character also named the warden.

- ↑ "I want to talk about the heartbeat in the Warden videos: when developing the Warden for the first time, sound design was super important to me and the mob was designed with that in mind. Part of me wanted to hear the player's "heartbeat" as the Warden got closer, for anticipation" – @kingbdogz on X, October 18, 2021

- ↑ "That would be the opposite of immersive though. Do Steve or Alex have heartbeats? Would it even make sense to hear it? In my opinion no. It feels too out of place.My solution instead was, what if something else made that heartbeat sound? Thus the Warden gained a heartbeat." – @kingbdogz on X, October 18, 2021

Stalkers were going to have a glowing item in the middle of its chest that you would also randomly find throughout the biome floating on totems. The idea was stalkers would stand perfectly still to "fake" those glowing items." – @kingbdogz on X, January 22, 2022
