Dinnerbone-twitter

I decided to go for a less traditional witch look and have an "offshoot villager" kinda thing. It has a magical nose that wiggles, too.

Dinnerbone

Witches are dangerous hostile mobs that use splash potions as their ranged weapon. They also use beneficial potions on themselves defensively. Witches spawn in the Overworld at night, and in any area that has a light level of 7 or less. Each Witch Hut also spawns a Witch inside. Unlike Skeletons or Zombies, Witches do not burn up in sunlight.

Appearance

A Witch appears similar to a typical villager, but with paler skin, a smaller mouth, lavender eyes, a witch hat with a green spot in front, purple and green robes, brown leggings and grey feet. It has a large nose that moves gradually around its face, with a single small wart. Witches periodically emit a purple particle effect similar to villagers' green effect.

Uses

When killed, witches can drop Glass Bottles, Glowstone Dust, Gunpowder, Redstone, Spider Eyes, Sticks, and Sugar. They drop 1–3 different item types, and 0-6 quantity of each, though with an overall maximum of six items total.

Witches also drop Potions of Healing, Fire Resistance, Swiftness and Water Breathing, but only when they die while drinking that potion.

Behavior

Witches use splash potions offensively, and drink ordinary potions defensively.

Offense

  • They will throw potions of slowness if the player is at least 8 blocks away and does not have the Slowness status effect.
  • They will throw potions of poison if the player's health is at least 8♥♥♥♥ and is not poisoned.
  • They have a 25% chance of throwing potions of weakness if the player is within 3 blocks and does not have the Weakness status effect.
  • If none of the above conditions are true, Witches default to using potions of harming.

These potions will affect other mobs in the effect range, not just the player.

Defense

  • If set on fire, Witches drink a potion of fire resistance (though Witches don't catch fire in sunlight).
  • When damaged, they will drink a potion of healing. Note that Witches can't attack while healing.
  • When a Witch's head is under water, it will drink a potion of water breathing.
  • When more than 11 blocks from a target, it will drink a speed potion to get closer and attack.

Witches are 85% resistant to splash potions of poison and instant damage.

Combat

A bow will likely be the best option, as their splash potions have only a short range (at most 12 blocks) as compared to arrows.

If a bow is not an option, a sprinting melee charge can work: When a witch sees a player from a distance (11-16 blocks away from her), she will try to drink a speed potion, giving the player time to sprint-jump in a straight line towards her. By the time the Witch finishes the potion, the player will be in jump-attack range. The witch will try to heal herself the first 4 to 5 seconds, but with any sword this should still be enough time to kill the Witch or force it to drink another healing potion before it has the opportunity to throw its offensive splash potions.

Keep a bucket of Milk handy to nullify potion (status) effects.

History

r
September 13, 2012Dinnerbone hinted that the witch mob would be added in the Pretty Scary Update,[1][2][3] and that the witch's texture would be some variation of the villagers'.[4]
September 21, 2012Dinnerbone confirmed a suggestion made by Mr_Pennybags in Reddit's r/Minecraft subreddit that witches are to live in Witch Huts.

'''Bookshelves''' are [[blocks]] that improve [[enchanting|enchantments]] applied with an [[enchanting table]] when placed around one, up to a maximum of fifteen bookshelves, at the expense of [[Enchanting/Levels|level]] requirement.

== Obtaining ==
=== Natural generation ===
Bookshelves can generate in village libraries and sometimes village houses.

[[Stronghold]]s may contain up to two libraries, each of which may be single-level or have an upper balcony. These feature some bookshelves arranged in pillars, and more bookshelves arranged in pillars in the walls. Single-level libraries contain 161 bookshelves, while libraries with balconies contain 233.

Bookshelves also naturally generate in certain [[woodland mansion]] rooms.

=== Breaking ===
Bookshelves can be broken fairly easily by hand, but can be broken faster by using an [[axe]]. In either case, they drop 3 books when broken, allowing the reconstruction of the bookshelf with the addition of six wood planks. When broken by an item that is [[enchanted]] with [[Silk Touch]], a bookshelf drops itself.

== Usage ==
=== Enchanting ===
{{main|Enchantment mechanics#Bookshelf placement}}

If an [[enchanting table]] is placed near a bookshelf, glyph [[particles]] fly from the bookshelf toward the enchanting table. Having bookshelves in the proper position near the table allows the table to apply higher-level enchantments.

=== Crafting ingredient ===

=== Fuel ===
Bookshelves can be used as a [[fuel]] in [[furnace]]s, smelting 1.5 items per block.

=== Villager ===
Librarian [[villager]]s can interact with bookshelves.

=== Note Blocks ===
Bookshelf can be placed under [[note block]]s to produce "bass" sounds.

A '''rabbit's foot''' is a [[brewing]] item obtained from [[rabbit]]s.

== Obtaining ==

=== Mob loot ===
Each [[rabbit]] has a 10% chance to drop a rabbit's foot when killed by the [[player]]. This chance can be increased by 3% per level using a sword enchanted with [[Looting]].

A [[fox]] sometimes spawns with a rabbit's foot in its mouth, which always drops upon death. Alternatively, the player can drop a [[food]] item, which causes the fox to drop the rabbit's foot.

=== Cat gifts ===
{{main|Cat#Gifts}}
A tamed [[cat]] has a 70% chance of giving the player a gift when the player wakes up from a [[bed]], and the gift has a 16.13% chance to be a rabbit's foot.

== Usage ==

=== Brewing ingredient ===

{{Brewing

  |Rabbit's Foot
  |Mundane Potion
  |base=Water Bottle
}}
{{brewing
  |foot=1
  |showname=1
  |Rabbit's Foot
  |Potion of Leaping
}}

=== Trading ===
Journeyman-level cleric [[villager]]s buy rabbit's feet for an [[emerald]] as part of their trade: {{in|java}} they buy 2, and {{in|bedrock}} they buy 4.

| title = Written Book

}}
A '''written book''' is an [[item]] created after a [[book and quill]] is signed.

== Obtaining ==

=== Signing a book and quill ===

Written books can be obtained by signing a [[book and quill]]. After it has been signed, it cannot be edited again. The label does not say "Written Book", but whatever the [[player]] titles it. The title appears on the top line of the label, and "by <''player''>" (the player's username) on the bottom. {{IN|bedrock}}, this is customizable without [[commands]].

=== Copying ===

|type=Miscellaneous
}}

== Usage ==

Written books can be opened by right-clicking (or holding down on the screen {{in|bedrock}}), and display a GUI allowing the [[player]] to read it or turn the page.

The contents of a book are an extra set of data attached to the item. This means that when a book is destroyed, its contents are lost with it.

=== Lecterns ===

One can place a [[written book]] on an empty [[lectern]].

The lectern then emits a redstone signal depending on the displayed page in the book. On the last page, the lectern emits a signal strength of 15.

=== Chiseled bookshelf ===
{{control|Use|text=Using}} the [[chiseled bookshelf]] while having a written book in the main hand will put the book inside the chiseled bookshelf.

*When written books are obtained with [[commands]] (without the correct [[Player.dat format#Written Books|data tag]]), the label shows "Written Book" and has the text "*Invalid book tag*" when opened. The book is signed and cannot be edited without commands.
*Commands that were added to a written book using serialized JSON objects are executed through the chat system. This means that any command added to a written book can't be longer than 256 characters, which is the maximum chat line limit.
*During the 2020 April Fools Update [[Java Edition 20w14∞]], throwing a written book into a lit [[Nether Portal (block)|nether portal]] would create a portal to one of the 2,147,483,645 new dimensions.

A '''hopper''' is a low-capacity storage [[block]] that can be used to collect [[item (entity)|item entities]] directly above it, as well as to transfer [[item]]s into and out of other containers. A hopper can be locked with [[Redstone Dust|redstone power]] to stop it from moving items into or out of itself.

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
To obtain a hopper, {{control|mine}} it with a [[pickaxe]]. Using any other item to mine a hopper drops only its contents.
{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Hopper|Pickaxe|Wood|foot=1}}

===Crafting===
A hopper can be crafted from 5 iron ingots and a chest.
{{Crafting
|A1= Iron Ingot
|C1= Iron Ingot
|A2= Iron Ingot
|B2= Chest
|C2= Iron Ingot
|B3= Iron Ingot
|Output= Hopper
|type= Redstone
}}

==Usage==
{{see also|Tutorials/Hopper}}
[[File:Hopper aligment.png|Hoppers can face down or sideways.|thumb]]

A hopper can be used as a container, as a crafting ingredient, and as a redstone component.

A hopper has an "output" tube at its bottom that can face down or sideways and provides a visual indication of which block the hopper is set up to drop its items into, if that block has an inventory. To place a hopper, use the {{control|Place Block}} control while aiming at the surface to which its output should face (Hoppers ''do not'' orient themselves automatically). To place a hopper directly on the face of an already interactable block, the player can {{control|sneak}} while placing the hopper. Attempting to place a hopper aimed on the bottom face of a block instead faces downward. With some blocks, such as the [[furnace]] and [[brewing stand]], the hopper has multiple uses. A hopper does not change direction after placement, and it is not attached to the container it faces; the container can be removed or replaced, and the hopper remains unchanged.

Hoppers cannot be moved by [[piston]]s.{{only|java}} Despite not being a solid block, attached blocks such as [[rail]]s, [[lever]]s, [[tripwire]] and [[redstone]] dust can be placed on top of hoppers, but not on their sides.

===Container===
[[File:Hopper GUI.png|thumb|176px|Hopper GUI showing the hopper's five slots of inventory at the top and the player's inventory below.]]

A hopper can be used as a container and has 5 slots of inventory space.

To open the hopper GUI, use the {{control|use item|text=Use Item/Place Block}} [[control]]. To move items between the hopper inventory and the player inventory or hotbar while the hopper GUI is open, drag or shift-click the items. To exit the hopper GUI, use the {{key|Esc}} key, B button or circle button, depending on the device.

By default, the GUI of a hopper is labeled "Item Hopper". A hopper's GUI label can be changed by naming the hopper in an [[anvil]] before placing it, or, {{in|java}}, by using the [[Commands#data|data]] command (for example, to label a hopper at (0,64,0) "Steve's Hopper", use <code>/data merge block 0 64 0 {CustomName:'"Steve's Hopper"'}</code>).

{{IN|java}}, a hopper's GUI can be "locked" (or subsequently unlocked) by setting the hopper's <code>Lock</code> tag with the [[Commands#data|data]] command. If a hopper's <code>Lock</code> tag is not blank, the hopper cannot be accessed except by players holding an item with the same name as the <code>Lock</code> tag's text. For example, to lock a hopper at (0,64,0) so that only players holding an item named "Steve's Key" can access the hopper, use <code>/data merge block 0 64 0 {Lock:"Steve's Key"}</code>.

===Crafting ingredient===
A hopper can be used to craft a [[minecart with hopper]].
{{crafting usage}}

===Redstone component===
{{see also|Redstone circuit|Redstone components#Hopper}}
[[File:Hopper logic flowchart.png|thumb|Flowchart of hopper logic]]

While a hopper is ''not'' powered by redstone signals, it operates with three functions:

*'''Collect''' [[Item (entity)|item entities]] (free-floating items in the world) into its inventory from the space above it
*'''Pull''' a single item into its inventory from a container above it
*'''Push''' a single item from its own inventory into a container it faces

A hopper first attempts to push any items inside it. Afterward, it checks if the block above it is a type of container. If so, it attempts to pull from it. Otherwise, the hopper attempts to collect item entities. Notably, hoppers can push to and pull from other hoppers, forming '''hopper pipes''' or '''hopper chains''', which allow transporting items across several blocks and are further discussed below.

====Redstone signals====
When a hopper receives a redstone signal (and is considered to be "activated"), all three functions stop. To avoid confusion over the terms "activated" and "deactivated", powered hoppers are often described as being '''locked''' and unpowered hoppers described as being '''unlocked'''. Hoppers can be powered by [[Redstone_mechanics#Power|soft powered]] blocks, meaning a [[redstone dust]] trail pointing into a block touching the hopper locks it just as effectively as a [[redstone block]] or any other [[Redstone components#Power components|power component]] touching the hopper. When the hopper is unlocked during a redstone tick, it does not push or pull/collect during the same tick, but has a delay of 1 redstone tick instead.

While a locked hopper does not push or pull/collect items, it may still receive items from [[dispenser]]s, [[dropper]]s and other hoppers, and may have its items pulled out by another hopper beneath it. Hence, the item flow in a horizontal hopper pipe may be stopped by locking just one of the hoppers, but stopping a vertical hopper pipe requires locking two adjacent hoppers at the same time, such that both the pushing of the top one and the pulling of the bottom one are stopped.  

A hopper does not output any redstone signals by itself, but its fullness can be read using a [[Redstone Comparator|redstone comparator]], which needs to be placed next to it and facing away from it. An empty hopper outputs a signal strength of 0 and a completely full hopper outputs a signal strength of 15. Notably, a single stackable item (16 or 64) outputs a signal strength of 1 and a single non-stackable item outputs a signal strength of 3.  

{{IN|Java}}, if the hopper being read is part of a horizontal hopper pipe, the comparator can individually read each item passing through the chain, because items are pushed through the hoppers one by one at a speed that is manageable by the comparator. If there is an uninterrupted stream of items, the comparator does not switch off in between items. On the other hand, in a vertical hopper pipe, some of the hoppers may never produce a reading above 0, even with a continuous stream of items, because pushes and pulls both occur in the same game tick: The hoppers' items get pulled out a single game tick after they're pushed in and this isn't measurable by a comparator, because comparators need measurements lasting at least 1.5 redstone ticks to produce a reading.  

====Collecting items====
A hopper collects items dropped on top of it if the space above the hopper not occupied by a storage block. Items are gathered from the entire 1 block space above the hopper, meaning that items sitting on partial blocks such as [[soul sand]] directly above a hopper can be collected.<ref>https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-55824</ref> It is also possible for a hopper to collect items from inside a full, solid block, a situation that might come from items rising up through solid blocks or being [[commands/summon|summoned]]. Item entities are not collected when they are outside of the collection area however; for example, items on top of a stone block directly above a hopper are not collected. Collected items are placed in the leftmost empty slot of a hopper's inventory.

{{IN|java}}, if there is no container above the hopper, then the hopper collects dropped items in the order in which they landed on the hopper. This order is remembered even while a hopper is locked. For instance, if a hopper is locked under a carpet while a fully equipped [[armor stand]] is broken above it, then it always collects items in this order when it is unlocked: [[armor stand]], [[boots]], [[leggings]], [[chestplates]], [[helmets]]. This is due to the order in which these items land.{{Verify|Wouldn't this be due to the order in which the game creates the item entities that drop drop from the armor stand?}} {{IN|Bedrock}}, hoppers do not remember the order in which items land on the hopper. Instead, hoppers with multiple dropped items above them collect the items in the order in which they entered the chunk in which the hopper is located. Items that drop from a broken armor stand are collected in a random order.<ref>https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-120586</ref>

Hoppers usually check for dropped items every [[game tick]] and they can collect items even before they are picked up by a [[player]]{{Verify|Does this happen always, or sometimes, and in Java only or also in Bedrock?}} or destroyed by [[lava]]. However, {{In|Bedrock}} hoppers have a "collection cooldown" time. After collecting an item (or stack of items), a hopper waits {{tooltip|4 redstone ticks|8 game ticks}} (0.4 seconds, barring lag) before attempting to collect again.

Hoppers collect groups of items all at once rather than collecting them as single items one at a time. As a result, hoppers can collect item entities much faster than they can pull items from a container. Pulling from a moving [[minecart with chest]] or [[minecart with hopper]] is even slower, since the minecart is not always above the hopper.

====Pushing and pulling items====
A hopper with a storage container above it (such as a [[furnace]], [[chest]], [[dropper]], [[composter]], or another hopper) attempts to pull from the container instead of checking for floating items above it, and hence can not collect items.  A hopper always tries to push or pull items using the leftmost available slot. When a hopper is removing items from a chest, the items disappear from left to right. Similarly, when filling up a chest, the chest fills up from left to right. Hoppers prioritize pulling from the first slot of a container over pulling into the first hopper slot. If a hopper has stone in its first slot and nothing in its second while the container it is pulling from has chicken in its first slot but stone in the second, the hopper pulls the chicken from the first slot of the container into its empty second slot. However, if the hopper is unable to pull the chicken, such as if all slots are filled with stone, the hopper pulls the stone from the second slot of the container instead. Similarly, hoppers prioritize pushing from their first slot over pushing into the first slot of a container. If a hopper has stone in its first slot and chicken in its second while the container it is pushing to has chicken it its first slot but stone in the second, the hopper pushes stone from its first slot into the second slot of the container.

In [[Java Edition]] the checks done by a hopper while pulling generally require less processing than the checks done by a hopper attempting collection. Therefore, a chain of hoppers topped with storage containers rather than air/solid blocks has better performance (measured as milliseconds of processing per tick) and lower potential for processing lag. <ref name=":0">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LC3ZOOI1Rf0</ref> The performance improvement achieved is correlated with the number of storage slots the container has. Placing composters (with no storage slots but still with custom output logic) on top of hoppers provide the greatest efficiency, while double chests actually degrade performance, even when sharing each double chest across two hoppers.<ref name=":0" /> In [[Bedrock Edition]] a chain of hoppers with air or non-container blocks on top has better performance than a chain of hoppers topped by container blocks.<ref>https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/715523208530362389/890030941282631741/Redstone_MSPT_measure.xlsx</ref> This may be because, even though hoppers with containers on top do not check for items, they do check for hopper-minecarts and chest-minecarts to pull from, and that involves scanning the chunk entity list.<ref>{{bug|MCPE-109449}}</ref>

{{Schematic|caption='''Push then Pull'''
Chest A is full of items while the hopper and Chest B are empty.
|ch-$+A||-
|ho-$e|ch-$+B
}}

Item pushes and pulls are processed in the same game tick, but pushes are processed before pulls. In the schematic, the empty hopper first pulls an item from chest A as it cannot push anything into chest B. After the cooldown, the hopper first pushes its item into chest B before pulling another item from chest A, both pushing and pulling in the same tick, and the process repeats. The hopper stops pulling when A is empty, and stops pushing when B becomes full.

Hoppers also have a "transfer cooldown" time. After pulling and/or pushing items, a hopper waits {{tooltip|4 redstone ticks|8 game ticks}} (0.4 seconds, barring lag) before pulling or pushing again (a transfer rate of 2.5 items per second, barring lag). A hopper that has an item pushed into it from another hopper also starts a 4 tick cooldown period, regardless of whether it pushed or pulled items itself. Item entities can be collected at any time without affecting the transfer cooldown time. The transfer cooldown and the Bedrock Edition collection cooldown are independent of each other.

====Container interactions====
Some [[container]]s interact with hoppers in specific ways:

:;{{BlockLink|Composter}}
::Hoppers above composters can push compostable items into the composter's top face with a chance of increasing the level of the composter as if the player used the item on the composter. Items that are not compostable cannot be pushed into the composter. Hoppers below the composter can pull [[bone meal]] when the composter is in stage 8, emptying the composter and resetting it to stage 0. Hoppers to the side of a composter do not interact with it.

:;{{BlockLink|Brewing Stand}}
::A working hopper on the top face of a brewing stand deposits only into the ingredient slot and it can push only valid [[brewing]] ingredients. A hopper on side face of a brewing stand can deposit only [[blaze powder]] or filled bottles into the three brew slots. A hopper underneath a brewing stand always extracts from the three brew slots, whether brewing is finished or not—The hopper must be locked to allow potions to finish brewing.

:;{{BlockLink|Chest}}
:;{{BlockLink|Trapped Chest}}
::Large chests and large trapped chests are treated as a single container: A hopper depositing into a large chest fills up the entire chest and a hopper underneath a large chest empties the entire chest. Trapped chests being accessed by a player lock any adjacent hoppers, per the standard behavior of a hopper next to an active power source.

:;{{BlockLink|Furnace}}
:;{{BlockLink|Blast Furnace}}
:;{{BlockLink|Smoker}}
::A working hopper pointing into top of a furnace deposits only into the ingredient slot. It can push any item, including items that can't be smelted by the furnace. A hopper pointing into the side of a furnace deposits into the fuel slot, and only items that are usable as fuel. A hopper below a furnace pulls everything from the output slot and empty [[bucket]]s from the fuel slot left over from using [[lava bucket]]s as fuel. When a hopper removes items from a furnace, the experience points are 'stored' in the furnace until a player removes at least one smelted item, or the furnace block is broken.

:;{{BlockSprite|Hopper}} Hopper
::A sequence of three or more hoppers, each pushing items into the next, is called a '''hopper pipe'''. Working horizontal hopper pipes simply push items into each other at the expected rate of 2.5 items per second, but vertical hopper pipes are more complicated, as the hoppers are trying both to pull and to push. When a vertical pipe pulls from a single container, it simply transfers items at 2.5 items per second because the transfer rate is limited by the first hopper pulling items from the container. If a ''stack of items'' is in a vertical pipe, the items can be transferred twice as fast, because the hopper with the item stack is pushing items down while the hopper below it is also pulling items down.

:;{{EntityLink|Minecart with Chest}}
:;{{EntityLink|Minecart with Hopper}}
::Unlocked hoppers fill chest minecarts and hopper minecarts if any part of the entity's hitbox is within the hopper's target block-space. Hopper minecarts try to pull items from the hopper at high speed. Hoppers can pull items from minecarts above them so rails can be placed directly on the top faces of a hoppers. If a [[detector rail]] is in the right position, it could lock the hopper per standard redstone-hopper behavior.

:;{{BlockLink|Jukebox}}
::Hoppers can insert [[music disc]]s into jukeboxes, and extract the music discs after they finish playing.

:;{{BlockLink|Shulker Box}}
::Hoppers cannot put shulker boxes into other shulker boxes. This allows for the creation of certain [[Tutorials/Hopper#Potions and shulker boxes|item filters]].
::Otherwise, hoppers interact with shulker boxes normally.

:;{{BlockLink|Lectern}}
::Hoppers cannot remove or place books on lecterns. The redstone pulse emitted from a lectern when a page is turned can temporarily lock hoppers.

:;{{BlockLink|Ender Chest}}
::Hoppers cannot interact with ender chests in any way.

:;{{BlockLink|Barrel}}
:;{{BlockLink|Dispenser}}
:;{{BlockLink|Dropper}}
:;{{EntityLink|Boat with Chest}}
::Hoppers interact normally with barrels, dispensers, droppers, and boats with chests.

:;{{BlockLink|Chiseled Bookshelf}}
::Hoppers and minecart with hoppers can insert and remove books from the bookshelf. As with any other container, items are taken from the first slot that has an item that can fit in the hopper and are inserted into the first empty slot.

A '''firework rocket''' is an [[item]] (and [[entity]]) used for creating decorative explosions, boosting when flying with [[elytra]], and loading into a [[crossbow]] as ammunition.

== Obtaining  ==

Fireworks can be obtained by crafting. {{IN|java}}, a firework with no explosion effect is available on the [[Creative]] inventory and can be crafted as shown below. {{IN|bedrock}}, fireworks with the different base colors or no explosion are available in the Creative inventory.

To launch a firework rocket, {{control|use}} its item on a block. They can also be launched from [[dispenser]]s and [[crossbow]]s. If shot from a [[Multishot]] [[crossbow]], then 3 rockets fire with the same effects.

=== Elytra ===
{{control|Using}} a firework rocket while flying with [[elytra]] propels the player in the direction they are facing. The duration of the speed boost depends on the flight duration of the rocket. If the rocket is equipped with a firework star of any kind, the player takes damage when it explodes.

=== Crossbow ===
A firework rocket can be used as ammunition for [[crossbow]]s, although it deals [[damage]] only if it has an [[explosion]] effect. A higher flight duration gives the firework rocket a longer range, and more damage is added per firework star. The [[Piercing]] enchantment has no effect on firework rockets shot from a crossbow.

{{IN|java}}, if a firework rocket shot from a [[crossbow]] hits an [[entity]], the rocket instantly [[explosion|explodes]], no matter the flight duration. Attempting to do this {{in|bedrock}}, however, results in the firework passing through the entity,<ref>[[bugtracker:MCPE-52675|MCPE-52675]]</ref> so the [[player]] must plan where to aim.

== Behavior ==
{{see also|Firework Star#Effects}}

Once launched, fireworks fly out vertically, with random horizontal offset up to 5 blocks. {{IN|bedrock|java}}, fireworks can fly in any of the 6 directions a dispenser can point. After [[#Duration and direction|some time]], the firework explodes into a colorful explosion based on the effects of the [[firework star]]s added upon crafting, or no explosion if no firework star was used. If multiple firework stars were added to the rocket upon crafting, they all explode simultaneously.

The explosion of a firework rocket deals damage to mobs and players that are within 5 blocks and not obstructed by [[solid block]]s. The maximum damage of a rocket with one firework star is {{hp|7}}, with the damage decreasing with distance. Each additional firework star on the rocket adds {{hp|2}} points of damage, for a maximum damage of {{hp|19}} with 7 stars. Using commands to add additional firework stars results in more damage. The damage dealt is unaffected by any other ingredients used. The explosion does not destroy end crystals nor damage the Ender dragon, but does destroy armor stands.

There is a delay between the detonation and the player hearing the sound, emulating real fireworks, but this sound travels much more slowly than in the real world.<ref>{{Tweet|jeb|277075644804907009|However, no sound effects for fireworks yet... but everything's implemented, so they can be added without doing a new snapshot|December 7, 2012}}</ref><ref>{{Tweet|jeb|277075517226762242|Haha, @igblan , the speed of sound is 40 m/s, because the realistic speed of ~340 m/s didn't work well in Minecraft scale|December 7, 2012}}</ref> {{IN|java}}, the explosion of a firework can be seen 64 blocks away, regardless of its height. {{IN|bedrock}}, the explosion can be seen from your render distance.

If the explosion exceeds the (unmodded) [[particle]] limit of 16,384, the oldest particles are removed before displaying new ones, resulting in severely diminished firework quality / duration. At most a firework should have 3 trail stars, more than that could waste diamonds, firework stars, and other fireworks. Particle counts per star are:

{| class="wikitable" data-description="Particle counts per firework star"
|-
! Ball Type !! Plain !! Trail
|-
| Small || 98 || ~1300
|-
| Large || 387 || 4000+
|-
| Star || 122 || ~1600
|-
| Creeper || 266 || ~3500
|-
| Burst || 72 || ~930
|}

Twinkle effect adds 2 particles to the count.

Like most other entities, they can be moved by [[water]] and [[explosion]]s, and teleported via [[portal]]s. They also cannot move through solid surfaced blocks, upon hitting one, they either move to a side or explode based on the duration. If a firework explodes under a block, its explosion is flattened.

=== Duration and direction ===

Fireworks travel different heights based on the amount of gunpowder added. The number is displayed as a tag on the item's tooltip with the description of "Flight Duration".

The height it rises is between 8 and 20 blocks with 1 gunpowder, 18 to 34 blocks with 2 gunpowder, and 32 to 52 blocks with 3 gunpowder. 
(Note: Using command blocks, firework rockets with higher durations go higher and keep accelerating with virtually no terminal velocity. If the duration is long enough, the firework rocket could reach heights of over 1,000,000 blocks and speeds of over 10,000 m/s in a matter of minutes. Such fireworks with significant X and Z motions speed up sideways exponentially and reach outside the world boundary in a matter of seconds.{{only|java}})

When spawned, <!-- server-side --> fireworks have a vertical speed of .05 and a random small X and Z speed (random value near zero with a standard deviation of .001).  Each firework also determines its lifetime in ticks by 10 × (number of gunpowder + 1) + random value from 0 to 5 + random value from 0 to 6, after which it explodes.  Each tick, the firework accelerates horizontally by multiplying its X and Z velocities by 1.15, and vertically by adding a constant factor of .04.

Fireworks can be made to travel different directions by being dispensed or launched under flowing water. The firework's direction combines with the flow of the water to go diagonally.

== Village Raids ==
After successfully defending a village from a [[Raid]] the villagers may celebrate by setting off firework rockets.

== Boosting elytra ==
Fireworks can be used to boost [[elytra]] when in flight. Normally, elytra can glide for a short distance, but with the use of fireworks, the player can fly a long distance, gain speed, and take off from the ground. 

Simply using the firework rocket with elytra spread boosts the player in the direction the player faces. It can leave behind a trail sometimes.

Although fireworks with firework stars can be used, the player takes blast damage if they use it in flight. 

There are four types of rockets, with three types of flight duration. Higher flight durations mean longer boosts. {{IN|bedrock}}, the fireworks obtained from the Creative menu have a flight duration of 1, while {{in|java}}, the fireworks obtained in the Creative menu have a flight duration of 1, 2, or 3.

== Sounds ==

Firework rockets use the Friendly Creatures sound category for entity-dependent sound events.

'''Banners''' are tall decorative [[blocks]], featuring a field that is highly customizable using [[dye]]s and [[banner pattern]]s.

== Obtaining ==

=== Breaking ===

Banners can be broken with or without a [[tool]], but an [[axe]] is fastest.
{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Banners|Axe}}

A banner also breaks and drops itself as an [[Item (entity)|item]] if the block the banner is attached to is moved, removed, or destroyed.

{{IN|bedrock}}, expert-level cartographer and shepherd villagers both offer to sell one of 16 blank banners for 3 emeralds as part of their trades.

=== Mob loot ===

[[Illager]]s that spawn carrying an ominous banner{{only|java|short=1}} / illager banner{{only|bedrock|education|short=1}} always drop it upon death.

== Usage ==

[[File:Standing banner with block.png|thumb|upright|Overlapping block on a banner.]]
[[File:Wall banner with block.png|thumb|upright|Overlapping on a wall mounted banner.]]

There are 16 colored blank banners, and numerous patterns each available in each of the 16 colors. A banner can feature up to 6 different patterns. The top layer of a banner (or the last pattern added) can be washed off by {{control|using}} it on a [[cauldron]] containing water.

Banners, much like signs, can be placed both on the ground facing in any direction, or on a wall. They gently sway as if affected by a breeze, regardless of dimension or location. 

Banners have no collision mask as they are completely non-solid, so [[entities]] can move through them.

Other blocks (including other banners) can be placed on any edge of a banner's hitbox, which is only one block high despite the banner appearing as two blocks tall. This makes it possible to overlap another solid block on the top half of a banner for floor banners, or the bottom half of wall banners.

When a banner is placed on the side of a block, its position is set by the top block, and it is possible to place it so it appears half buried.

Banners can also be placed in [[item frame]]s, where they simply appear as their item model.

[[Water]] and [[lava]] flow around banners. {{IN|bedrock}}, banners can be [[waterlogged]].

<gallery>
File:Wall banner with water below.png| Water can be placed below wall banners
File:Water flowing around banner.png| Water flows around a banner on the ground
</gallery>

Lava can create [[fire]] in air blocks next to banners as if the banners were flammable, but the banners do not burn (and cannot be burned by other methods). Banners also cannot be moved by [[piston]]s.

If a banner is renamed on an [[anvil]], it retains its name when a pattern is added, but not when a pattern is removed.

=== Helmet ===
{{exclusive|java|section=13}}
While a banner cannot be equipped in the [[Helmet|head slot]] in [[Survival]] mode, equipping it using commands causes it to appear on top of the player. This is how [[raid captain]]s wear banners{{only|java|short=1}}.

=== Chestplate ===
{{exclusive|bedrock|section=13}}

=== Crafting ingredient ===

[[Shield]]s can have patterns applied to them using banners. The shield pattern has a smaller resolution than the banner pattern, causing them to look different or offset. Banners that have more than six patterns, such as Ominous Banners or banners obtained through inventory editors, will be reduced to six patterns on the shield.

=== Copying ===

Banners can be copied with a blank banner to make multiple identical banners. Banners with more than 6 patterns applied using commands cannot be copied in this manner.

=== Map marker ===
[[File:Banner marked map.png|alt=All banners marked on a map, alongside a named banner.|thumb|right|How every banner appears {{IN|java}} on a map, including named banners.]]

{{exclusive|java|section=13}}
{{IN|java}}, {{control|using}} on a standing banner with a [[map]] selected places a marker of the banner's position on the selected map, and {{control|using}} on the banner again removes the marker. Note that wall banners cannot serve as map markers. The marker has the same color as the banner's base without decorations. The marker is removed if the banner is destroyed unless the map is locked using a [[cartography table]]. If the banner is renamed, the name appears below the marker.

=== Patterns ===
{{see also|Banner/Patterns|title1=List of patterned banners}}
[[File:Spawned-in Banner.png|thumb|100px|Example of a banner with more than 6 patterns, a result of using the {{cmd|give}} command.]]

A banner may have up to six layers of patterns, which are overlaid with the last-crafted on top. A banner can have up to 16 layers of patterns with the use of commands. The total number of unique banners is approximately 2.3x10^16 (or 23 quadrillion).

Any color banner can be used; the pattern overlays the color. {{IN|java}}, a [[loom]] is used to make patterns. However, {{in|bedrock}}, the patterns can be made in a [[loom]] or a [[crafting table]].

A banner can have more than six layers of patterns through the commands <code>/[[Commands/give|give]]</code>, <code>/[[Commands/setblock|setblock]]</code> or <code>/[[Commands/fill|fill]]</code>. This only works in ''Java Edition'', as Bedrock Edition doesn't have any NBT commands. Here is an example of a mining banner with seven different patterns.

=== Renaming ===
{{IN|java}}, a banner can be given a custom name that remains as the banner is placed and retrieved. The player can use an [[anvil]] to rename the banner item, or may change the <code>CustomName</code> tag using the {{cmd|data}} command on the banner block.

=== Fuel ===
Banners can be used as a fuel in [[furnace]]s, smelting 1.5 items per banner.

=== Note Blocks ===
Banners can be placed under [[note block]]s to produce "bass" sounds.

== Issues ==

{{issue list}}

== Trivia ==
* With 16 blank banners, 38 patterns of 16 colors each (608 uniquely-colored patterns), and 0 to 6 patterns per banner, the number of uniquely crafted banners is 16 × (608<sup>0</sup> + 608<sup>1</sup> + 608<sup>2</sup> + 608<sup>3</sup> + 608<sup>4</sup> + 608<sup>5</sup> + 608<sup>6</sup>) ≈ 809 quadrillion - 809 with 15 zeros (809,573,616,779,945,488). The number of visually distinct banners is smaller, because one or more patterns may completely cover other patterns, or the entire banner, or be duplicated due to the symmetric set of patterns (e.g. field or (yellow) + per pale azure (blue) = field azure + per pale or inverted).
** Not 38 patterns are available on BE, but 40 patterns of 16 colors each (640 uniquely-colored patterns), so the number is even greater. 16 × (640<sup>0</sup> + 640<sup>1</sup> + 640<sup>2</sup> + 640<sup>3</sup> + 640<sup>4</sup> + 640<sup>5</sup> + 640<sup>6</sup>) ≈ 1 quintillion - 1 with 18 zeros (1,101,232,303,249,827,856). This increases the number by almost 1.4 times, or almost 292 quadrillion, despite the addition of only 2 patterns.
* If a banner has over 6 patterns, only the six bottom-most patterns are displayed when hovered over in the [[inventory]].
* The Mojang logo is called "Thing" in-game, which could be considered an alternate translation for [[wiktionary:mojäng|mojäng]]. If [[wikipedia:Google Translate|Google Translate]] is used, it translates to "thingys" or "contraption".
** In the Swedish translation of the game, this pattern is, in fact, called ''mojäng''.
* [[List of block textures#Banner Textures|Banner textures]] are located in \assets\minecraft\textures\entity\banner.
** There are 40 monochrome textures, each containing all 6 sides of the banner.
** The texture of the back side is the mirrored texture of the front side.
** Compared to the texture files, textures' colors are inverted in-game due to them acting as masks for the re-colored base texture, base.png. That means white is visible, while black is transparent.
* Banners that have the purple NBT+ line in the bottom (obtained by holding Ctrl and middle-clicking the banner, which also copies the NBT [[tag]] of anything that the player points their crosshair to) actually have no difference with the base banner obtained by middle click.
*The Illager Banner in Bedrock Edition is available as a separate item but is just a second variant of the white banner.
**Standard variant of white banner is set to type 0.
**Illager variant is set to type 1.

Trivia

  • A witch, like all mobs, can be geared using /summon.
  • If a witch shoots another witch with a potion, the witch who is hit will become angry and target the other witch, however it is impossible for either witch to kill the other (without help from a player) due to their use of healing potions and their resistance to each other's splash potions.
  • Witches have more drops than any other mob in the game.
  • Witches have the most health of any normally aggressive mob other than boss mobs, Guardians, and Elder Guardians. They also have the fifth most health of any mob that spawns naturally in the Overworld, behind Endermen, Guardians, Elder Guardians, and Iron Golems.
  • Witches are one of the two naturally spawning mobs to regenerate health. The second being the Horse.
  • Witches do not utilize the equipment in their huts, but they can be used by players.
  • Unlike villagers, witches will despawn when the player is out of range, since they are hostile mobs.
  • Witch Huts are similar to the hut of Baba Yaga (a general name for witch in Slavic folklore) that stood on chicken legs.
  • The odds of a witch dropping the maximum amount of drops possible (6 items total) without a Looting enchantment are 1 in 81 (1.2%).
  • Witches are the only hostile mob that don't make sounds.
  • Witches are extremely difficult to kill via suffocation or cacti (though not impossible), due to their frequent use of healing potions.
  • It's possible to get a witch to hit a zombie villager with a splash potion of weakness, then cure the villager. This eliminates the need for gathering materials from the Nether; both mobs spawn rarely, making this a more useful technique for attaining otherwise impossible to find villagers in resource-constrained maps, e.g. SkyBlock, nether-restricted servers, etc.
  • Witches are one of the five mobs that give debuffs to the player. The other four being the Wither, the Cave spider, the Wither skeleton, and the Elder Guardian.
    • They are also the only mob that can give more than one type of debuff.
  • All of the drops are used in potion brewing, except sticks. This makes for an exceptional potion ingredient farm.
  • In creative mode, a large number of witches can be spawned into a fenced area, then taunted into fighting by having a damaging potion thrown into their midst. Eventually all of the witches will fight each other because more of them are damaged each time another witch throws a potion.
  • If a game is started on peaceful then switched to a higher difficulty, all witch huts will be empty. This is because witches spawn with their huts at the beginning of the game.
  • If your view distance is greater than 8 then newly created terrain (including any witch huts and the witch that spawns with it) will be more than 128 blocks away, presumably causing the witch to immediately despawn.
  • Witches are one of four ranged mobs that spawn in the Overworld - the others being Guardians, Elder Guardians, and Skeletons.
  • When drinking a potion, a Witch's nose will point straight forward, instead of down.
  • Like Squid, Witches do not make any sounds, even when hit.
  • Witches still drink potions of healing if they take 1 point of damage
