For a while now, I've thought the Nether was really getting old. Sure, I've hunted a bunch of Wither Skeletons, and a bunch of other mobs. It's just getting old! So, I thought. "There should be new areas and mobs in the Nether!" These are some of my ideas for a new Nether!
One new area and mob would be the Demon's Watch Tower. A new mob, the Demon, would spawn at the very top of the tower. This demon would have a dark red skin color, be two blocks tall, have a set of horns and bony wings, and the face would have a long grin. This mob would have two ways to attack, melee, with its claws, and ranged, with fire charges. Also, this mob would have 25 hearts of health and deal 2 melee and 3 ranged. This counts for all difficulties. The tower would have a parkour challenge to reach the top. The demon would drop 0-2 cooked meat and rarely 1 quartz or nether rack.
Another new mob could be Cerberus, which will spawn around, but not in, Nether Fortresses. This mob would be a
two block high four legged monster with three heads. Cerberuses would attack with their heads, and deal 4 hearts of damage. But, Cerberuses have only 20 hearts of health. This mob would drop a new item, the Cerberus Tooth, which is used to brew an Enraging Potion, when combined with a Potion of Swiftness. But, the tooth is dropped very rarely, only a 20 percent chance, otherwise it will drop 1-3 raw beef and 0-2
bones. This Enraging Potion will give you Swiftness, Strength, and Haste for 30
seconds!
Those were some ideas for new mobs and areas in the Nether! Bye!
I was not trying to make anything as you quote " religiously bounded", I thought the Nether needed some original mobs. For example, Wither Skeleton is just a taller, black skeleton with a sword. And a Zombie Pigman is the replacement for what was going to be a Pigman. The Nether I thought was just getting old!
I think that the Nether have enought mobs for now, but they need some dungeons, remember that classical dungen with Mossy Cobblestone? Why don't make a similar dungeon in the nether to spawn Wither Skeletons, Blazes or Magma Cubes? Would be easy do program and could be improved in some ways, maybe spawning more than one mob, and the loot don't need to be so good, will be another reason to explore the nether.
I think the nether is fine as is with mobs, just need more structures and materials, just not what your suggesting. Also, zombie pigmen aren't a replacement for pigmen, they were added long before pigmen were even thought of.
At first, I thought this was gonna be one of those threads where the OP goes "ok let's demolish the nether we have now and replace it with my idea." I'm actually quite surprised. I think the tower and parkour challenge element are both very good, but the mob itself sounds waaaaayy too generic. At the very least, it deserves a name change, because "demon" is too general and uninteresting for Minecraft (despite some mobs having those kind of names already).
The Cerberus is too similar to the Wither with the three heads apart. I'm aware that this Cerberus dates back to greek mythology and all, but we don't need another tripled-headed mob. The enraging potion sounds good, but the "haste" part doesn't need to be there because enchantments already cover that.
So I support the tower, parkour-like structures and enraging potion, but not anything else.
