Wither Boss Minor Revisions.

[Jinsye]

Just some abilities to add to the Wither.

Explosion Manipulation: Skulls explode and he explodes too. Nuff said.

Summoning: In Bedrock Edition, when the Wither gets to half health, it causes a large explosion which summons 3-4 Wither Skeletons. I know this isn't Java Edition, but it should count.

Wither Armor: When the Wither gets to half health, it gains a small amount of Wither Armor, making it reduce damage. Like Steve's armor. Bedrock Edition only though.

Partial Intangibility?: So.... this one is incredibly iffy. But the Wither's side-heads phases through blocks that it can't break. Could be a game mechanic.

1. I don't think we grant this to people who can just make explosive things. But I guess that could work for the Wither's spawn explosion.

2. Yeah

3. Wither already has Forcefields

4. That's not just game mechanics. That's outright a glitch.

@Saik

Actually I believe that making stuff explode is already enough for explosion manip

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

I mean Goku shooting a Ki Blast that explodes isn't really Explosion Manipulation. The Wither Skulls are pretty much the same.

 

[Kaltias]

Well, explosion manip is the ability to generate explosions at will. Maybe simply "Can make its projectiles explode"?

 

[Jinsye]

I'm pretty sure it's not a glitch.

The Wither's actual hitbox is 1 block wide and 3.5 blocks high, even though actual measurements conclude that the wither is 3 blocks wide and 3.5 blocks tall.

Which makes it so that it's able to go through. It's more likely game mechanics

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

You can get clipping like that in any game. While not a "glitch", it's still unintended behavior so it's pretty much one.

 

[Jinsye]

Just tested it, the Wither can't take damage from blows to the side-heads.

Though..... I have a feeling it's just a glitch/game mechanic.

 

[Jinsye]

So basically, no partial intangibility or wither armor, but summoning and maybe explosion manipulation?
