Top 10 Most Dangerous Mobs in Minecraft

I'd definitely put this at #1, way ahead of the Ender Dragon. The Wither not only has more health but also can shoot explosive wither skulls from each of its three heads independently. The projectiles not only deal explosive damage but also give you the Wither effect, which is the only status in the game that can kill players and entities.

The Ender Dragon gets help from Endermen, thus reducing its danger level, while the Wither is more used to wrecking alone. Also, three heads are better than one!

I think the Ender Dragon is harder to beat than the Wither because the Wither is spawned by you, so there is nothing preventing you from spawning it in a place where it can't hurt you. On top of that, the battle is very simple because all you have to do is attack it and it dies.

The Ender Dragon needs a strategy to beat because if you just attack it, the dragon will just regenerate it all back. Also, you have to fight it in the End, not just put it in an inescapable cage.

The Ender Dragon is the most difficult mob, bar none. It requires great strategy and can easily kill you just by knocking you down while trying to reach those crystals. The versatility of its attacks, especially the lingering breath which can endanger entire bunkers, makes it the greatest threat in Minecraft to date.

The Creeper, after the combat update (1.14), became much more difficult to deal with, which doesn't change if you notice them. You have to back up and strategize before taking the chance to strike them. Sometimes they will take advantage of your combat reach and explode right after you start sprinting, which makes bows, crossbows, and arrows a necessity to fight them.

However, Creepers are the only mobs that can kill you instantly regardless of version. For instance, an unenchanted or unsuited enchanted diamond armor cannot take a creeper explosion and will kill you instantly. That is why I believe Creepers are the most dangerous mobs in the game, especially since they are extremely common with all other overworld hostile mobs.

Always look at their legs because if you look at them in the eyes, they will turn aggressive. Maybe that's why they become hostile. Perhaps it hurts their eyes. Or maybe they think we're aliens. Whatever the reason, they are still creepy.

Don't attack them with a sword unless you're under a tree that is two blocks high or next to a river or water source. If you're under a tree, shoot your bow at one so it teleports to you, then finish it off with your sword under the tree where it can't hit you.

Endermen are annoying. Their weakness is snow golems. Right now, I am trying to take over the End with my snow golem army. Make sure to keep snow golems in your house. But endermen will scream, teleport behind you, and kill you. They are very hard to kill.

They hold gold swords and sometimes wear golden armor! They're even evil enough to work for the most dangerous mob there is! Very deadly, man, very deadly!

Hmm... What is that pig doing with that golden sword... I guess I'll punch the pig... AH!

They are hard because if you punch one, the others will attack you. The baby ones are so hard to kill because of their speed!

Elder Guardians are rare, but once you encounter one, it will inflict Mining Fatigue, which will make harvesting the Prismarine walls much tougher.

Guardians are more likely to kill you than drowning.

Really irritating when it shoots mining fatigue at me.

Their fireballs knock you up into the air. Armor does not protect against fall damage. If you are in a precarious location, they could throw you off a cliff into lava and incinerate all your items.

The worst part is they attack from a distance. Deflecting their fireballs is ridiculously difficult. If you shoot them with a bow, half the time they move out of the way. They are worse in Nether fortresses where a blaze or wither skeleton will sneak up on you if you deal with one.

The reason why it's so hard is: 3. He is hard! 2. He's in the Nether, and you will be like: "Well... The Nether is so much easier than the End, so... The mobs will be easy!" Then you will attack the Ghast and say, "God, it's harder than I thought!"

And the best reason why it's hard is... You'll feel bad about it! It screams when you attack it. That's just scary on its own! But also... It kind of shudders when you're near it. So... That's why Ghasts are so hard to beat!

Dealing with one is dangerous because you can't let it touch you. When another one comes around behind you, you're doomed. They can drain half of your health in one strike, but they are easy to knock back with a shield.

This skeleton can really hurt! Giving you wither can really be a pain.

The wither effect is SO annoying!

Never attack! Don't even think of taking on one without armor. They have 80 health points, so melee combat would result in a loss for you.

They may look cute, but they're deadly.

They are helpful at defending a village, but when you're trying to kill a zombie, they are a pain. They will steal your kill, and if you hit one, your best bet is to run 10 blocks away and build a pillar with you on top that is 4+ blocks high. Then you should kill the golem with your bow. You can also run for your life and forget all about that village.

They only attack zombies, but if you were a zombie, you'd be dead. And they don't only guard villagers.

Iron Golems are not dangerous to us... But... They are dangerous to enemies.

Most people who post on these lists just look at raw power, like the Wither's high attack and the Ender Dragon's quick movements and knockback attacks. However, one thing they ignore is the power level of the player when they encounter the mob in question.

Nobody would be foolish enough to spawn the Wither or go after the Dragon without at least iron armor and a diamond sword. Those are voluntary encounters, while skeletons are not. Skeletons will attack you from the shadows while you are still a recent world join with stone tools and leather armor. Without good strategy and PvE skills, they can easily shoot you to death before you can even land a blow on them.

Creepers, zombies, and spiders are easy to defeat. Endermen, Withers, and the Ender Dragon are only a problem if you intentionally attack them. Nether mobs and cave spiders only attack you when you enter their domain, but skeletons can shoot you anywhere, anytime, and are easily the most deadly mob.

These things are easy to deal with when you're on top of a cliff and they're at the bottom. You can snipe them really easily that way, but watch your back for other mobs. If you're in a Nether fortress hallway, then this is a different story because you will be quickly swarmed.

Can easily slip out of your clutches. Even considered more powerful strategies won't defeat this creature in one blow. Their ability to climb walls makes it easier for them to make the list of "Most Dangerous Mobs."

( Honestly, I only chose this one because I don't have any of those Godzilla mods or whatever. HELP ME! )

Advice from almost every Minecraft book, and from me, is if you even see this freak, run!

This is actually a pretty dangerous and hard mob.

These are less powerful than laser pigs!

You people just don't understand, do you? This thing will kill you through diamond armor with poison and will follow you more relentlessly than any other ground-bound mob.

Cave spiders are so annoying. I have mined 42 times, and every time I get killed by one.

Poison leaves half a heart unless you drink milk.

Slimes are a bit dangerous and can break into more slimes when damaged.

Probably the exact same as a magma cube, but a different color.

Slime! Slime! Me no like slime! Me end slime forever!

Spider is kind of more dangerous than a cave spider!

Diamond armor really doesn't save lives if you encounter them. Their fangs always do 6 damage regardless of how powerful your armor is. The Vexes they summon provide a distraction while they summon more evoker fangs. They are comparably dangerous to a Ghast.

Killing the Evoker is easy, but killing the vexes is hard because they will bob in and out of the ground. The vexes will also swarm you in a matter of minutes, so kill the Evoker right away.

Well, their fangs and vexes are deadly.

Yeah, those zombies attack very well. One time there were two zombies after me. I went through a Nether portal to escape, but three zombies were already there! And I died.

Another time I went through my Nether portal again, and they just kept pushing me out! Those zombies aren't just strong, they're smart too, even with no brains.

I agree. They're pretty dangerous.

They can pick up armor and put it on, and the zombie will just take your stuff.

Vindicators are no less dangerous than Ravagers. They do slightly more damage than Ravagers and run ridiculously fast. You can't run away as they will outrun you.

Keeping them at bay by hitting them will not work as their speed allows them to catch up to you even if you back away, unless you have a Knockback enchanted sword. The only way to get rid of a Vindicator is to kill it.

The biggest mistake you can make when exploring a mansion is to not set your spawn point with a bed, as the skill level required to kill a group of them at a time is comparable to that needed to kill the Ender Dragon without getting killed.

Yes, you can one-hit them with a diamond sword or even an enchanted wooden sword. However, they are so small that it is hard to even hit them.

By the time you access a stronghold, so many of them will have spawned that the only way to get rid of them without getting hit is by either placing blocks or throwing a splash potion of Instant Damage II. The spawner in the portal room means that you can never get rid of them until you find the portal room.

And the most dangerous mob for traps goes to Silverfish!
