Minecraft Nether Update Mobs

The list of new mobs in Minecraft Nether update include piglins, piglin brute, hoglin, strider, and zoglin. Below are details and where these mobs spawn in the game.

Piglins

Spawn Locations: usually in crimson forests, uncommonly in bastion remnants and nether wastes in Minecraft.

Behaviors:

  • They are into most gold-related items. They will equip it if the gold item is a sword or an armor piece. Moreover, they will not attack players if players don gold armor. Although piglins can even trade with you, they won’t go equally easy on haggling.
  • Piglins are afraid of blocks that associate with soul light.
  • You can barter them by handing them a gold ingot. It makes them toss a random item on the bartering loot table in exchange.

Piglin brute

Spawn Locations: bastion remnants.

Behaviors:

  • They are not interested in gold items and cannot be bartered. They will come at you whether you have gold armor on or not. Well, we guess they are just not in the mood all the time.
  • They attack on-sight Wither and wither skeletons like normal piglins.
  • Their attack damage is relatively large as they can kill a player without armor within just a few hits.

Hoglin

Spawn Locations: Aka piglin beast, this hostile mob spawn in hoglin stables in bastion remnants or crimson forests. Look out for them when finding a Nether Fortress.

Behaviors:

  • Among the new mobs in Minecraft Nether update, hoglin cannot be neutralized with gold armor. However, it poses a decent food source if you are strutting around these harzadous caves of the most fatal place in Minecraft.
  • Though they may look adorable, beware of their sharp tusks.

Strider

Spawn Locations: the Nether’s lava oceans.

Behaviors:

  • You can breed them with warped fungus to generate a baby strider.
  • You may also ride them using a saddle. On another hand, it can also be taken under control with only a warped fungus on a stick. This is the only resemblance they share with Overworld pigs.

Zoglin

Spawn Locations: Surprisingly, this mob only spawns when a hoglin stays in the End or Overworld for half a minute.

Behaviors: Except for other zoglins and creepers, they are aggressive towards every mob.
