The Wayfarer, I believe, could be a super cool and interesting mob depending on which direction it is taken!

As for the soulsand mob, I don't have an exact name for it yet, but I was thinking that these ambush predators could stand in-between the height of a player and an Enderman. They start off hiding beneath the sand in Soulsand Valleys, waiting for prey to walk by them before jumping out of the ground to begin attacking. Aside from general swiping attacks, they also come with the deadly ability to coil up before spinning rapidly, performing a Sonic-spindash like attack straight at their target while leaving behind a trail of soul fire.

Although they have moderate amounts of health, they usually come in packs of 4-5 mobs in them. As for their drops... idk yet. Either a new weapon which fires saw blade like projectiles made of soul fire, or a new block which spawns soul fire sawblades when activated with a button, lever, or redstone.

I even drew a rough sketch as to what they could look like! (it's a wip, so it could end up looking more skeletal possibly)

I sent the location to Brazilian Portuguese on your github

https://github.com/BobMowzie/MowziesMobs/pull/345

Also improve the appearance of the 'Naga Fang Dagger' in third person.

Thanks! I merged your PR.

I dont have many good ideas and im not sure if this another case of that. I think it would be cool if the Ferrous Wroughnaut had some variants. Like different weaponry like maybe a great hammer, tower shield and spear, great sword or even a halberd. these could change the attack behaviour. The great hammer could be more damage and more aoe but more telegraphed and way slower. The spear and shield could be way more beefy and have faster attacks but less damage, maybe simple attack like a shield bash or maybe a charge and when it stops its wide open from the back and stunned for a few seconds. greate sword could be faster then the hammer but more damage then the spear being closer to the original with large sweeping attacks. Instead of a large over the head swing that gets stuck in the ground it could be more of a plunge that has a small aoe that knocks the player away. And for the halberd i really have no ideas. I just think some variation would help keep the player on thier toes. To be honest tho, it just sounds like a lot of work and is very much a half backed idea. Just thought it would be cool to see some variants of the Ferrous Wroughnaut even if the different weapons dont have any different abilitys, it could be as simple as a differnt weapon in its back or just a broken horn or some texture variantions. Heck some biome varaints would be cool as hell with like an overgrown and rusted version(Maybe a Nether version with some form of fire attacks). The different weapons could pretty easily just be retextured versions of the axe. But no matter if this is a good idea or not i still and will always see this as one of the greatest mods that exists for minecraft and i belive the community needs more devs like you. Thanks for keeping the mod alive for all these years and i hope this idea, even if its not ipmlemented, could help spark some ideas. Good luck, Stay awesome.

Hey Bob i got you a new mob idea, hope you like it!

The Desert shell

The first impression of this mob is of a big sea shell in the middle of a desert, to activate the battel the player must hit the shell, it is in a dormant state and will not harm the player and will stay completely still, after hit the desert shell will rise out of the sand and will present it self as a big lizard with a huge sea shell on his back, the lizard is also completely covered with sand and other rubble, in this fase his attacks are more sluggish but hit with weight, his attacks could be tail strikes, paw slaps,roiling, blocking with his shell and throwing sand to try to blind his opponents, to go to his second fase you must break his shell and get rid of his rubble sticked to his body (there could possibly even be equipment and other junk stuck to him too), the second fase he presents himself as a iguana like lizard with a sticky mucus excreting from him and a foldable sail on his back, he would be much quicker in this stage, he would still have his tail and claw swipes however they would be quiker but less damage however in this fase he would do more ranged attacks, he would be able to shoot his stick mucus and passively leave it on the floor, when the player walks on the mucus the would get the "stick" status effect,when the effect is applied the player would have to limit there movement since the more they move the more rubble would stick to them making there movement slower depending on the terrain they walk on, it can also shoot cactus spikes from its mouth since its primary food source is cactus, the attack would be in a more of shotgun like blast, the last special attack would be with his foldable sail on his back, the sail would have to unfold and charge (in the sunlight,btw he can move and attack while the sail is out), after chareged enough the sail will fold and unfold rapidly before unleashing a blinding light (sort of like a flashbang) blinging or stunning the player, while the sail is out it would grant extra damage if hit as his weak point.



Drops:I was thinking of 2 main drops.

First vases filled with mucus, you would be able throw these vases and leave a puddle of mucus that is walked on would put the "sticky" status effect on any mob that walked on it.

Second a hand fan that would be made of it's sail, you could hold it on your of hand and charge it to be able to unleash the blinding flashbang attack.



Lore: Basically these Desert shells would start life in the ocean hunting small fish at night and at day basking at the water surface in the sunlight with there sail,at this stage in there lofe they dont have mucus or a shell, when maturing they would dig up a sea shell and place it on there back and make journey out of sea and to the deserts, but why use the shell or go to the desert you may ask? Well the shell is needed to protect them in there journey to the desert since juvenile Desert shells are the favorite prey of nagas, the shell would protect them from its poisonous projectiles, the reason they go to the deserts is to find there favorite food...cactus and as a byproduct of there food choise the mucus is made.

I hope you like my mob idea

Back at it again with some mob ideas, only this time they're going to be Nether themed! These are all pretty ambitious ideas, and I wouldn't be surprised if one or two of them end up not being possible in Minecraft's engine XD

The Wayfarer

A neutral mob and a distant cousin to the Strider, Wayfarers are massive dark-orange colored mobs whose bodies consists of a large flat torso with long, double-jointed front legs and one back leg. Wayfarers can be found migrating across vast oceans of lava in the Nether in small herds, using their long legs to kick any mobs that threaten them or their young. To tame these towering creatures, the player will need to feed it a Warped Fungus Cake, a new food block made from 3x warped fungus , 2x sugar, 3x milk buckets, and 1 egg. The the player must place the cake down near the a Wayfarer on the ground or on any solid platform, attracting it to it and causing it to bend down to eat the cake.

Once tamed, the player can place a ladder that will allow the player to reach atop the Wayfarer, where they can place blocks on top of the Wayfarer's 6x6 head; chests, furnaces, crafting tables, etc.. The player could even build a small house on top of the Wayfarer's head to have a mobile home in the Nether. However, the more blocks the player places on the Wayfarer's head, the slower it will move due to the weight.

The Incinerator

A new rare threat found in chambers within Nether Fortresses, Incinerators take on the form of blazing quadrupedal constructs made of Nether Bricks and Netherite, with cannons extending from either side of its torso and heads which appear like empty Netherite Helmets with horns. Being impervious to melee attacks, Incinerators switch between two attacks; charging up their twin cannons after a short windup to unleash to fire a hail of firebolts towards the player similarly to that of a gatling gun, and a close range attack where it breathes fire from it's head if the player gets too close. The damage from it's primary attack, however, will fall off over longer distances as the bullets are subject to a wide cone of fire.

To defeat an Incinerator, the player must fire arrows into its head in order to deal any damage into it. This can be done by waiting for the construct to finish shooting it's cannons to take a moment to cool down, giving the player the chance to break from cover and fire an arrow at it. 3-5 well placed arrows to the head is enough to take down an Obliterator, causing it's head to explode and it's body to crumble. Additionally, the Incinerator's arms can be shot off as well, by firing arrows at the weak spots in-between the cannons and the torso it's connected to.

Defeating an Incinerator will cause it to drops bunch of nether bricks, as well as two new rare materials; Netherite Cores and Netherite Gears. Both materials can be used to craft a new weapon and a new tool; the Nether Guzzler and the Bale Thruster. The Nether Guzzler is a two handed weapon which allows the player to use the Obliterator's primary attack, shooting hails of firebolts onto enemies, dealing high damage until it overheats; firing it for too long will result in it igniting the player for 4 seconds. the Bale Thruster is a new jetpack with two charges before it needs to recharge. On use, the player performs an initial liftoff, sending it a short distance upwards. Shortly after, the player will take off with a quick blast that launches the player in the direction they are aiming.

The Glow Beetle

A small and peaceful mob, Glow Beetles can be found all across the Nether, fluttering around until they find Glowstone to feed on. The player can use Glow Beetles to harvest Glowstone Dust by dropping a bar of any metal close to them, in which they'll chew on it in order to sharpen their fangs before going to the nearest Glowstone they can find. From there, Glowstone Dust will begin to drop as the Glow Beetle feeds, essentially allowing the player to collect Glowstone Dust without breaking the Glowstone. Killing a Glow Beetle will drop nothing.

Love the wayfarer, but gosh I can't begin to imagine how to get this to work. I've actually wanted to make a torterra-like forest turtle mob that players could build bases on for a while now, but simply can't. Even the Create mod doesn't let you build on the moving blocks until they're stationary. Gonna have to table it for later.

The incinerator is really cool as well. But are mechanical constructs consistent with the Nether's atmosphere? Maybe. I gotta think about it a bit more. It's like a miniboss, right?

Not sure about the glow beetles. Giving them metal to sharpen their teeth before they can eat doesn't make much sense, and I don't think players would figure it out on their own. Plus, isn't infinite glowstone from a single block a bit unbalanced? Still, the image of beetles collecting around glowstone in the nether is pretty cool. It just needs some mechanical revision.

Understand that the Withered Emissary concept was made in under an hour. As previously mentioned, I don't have their spell-set figured out. Melee spells and attacks are possible.

That's fine, and I do understand that. But you can't really expect me to be excited about an idea put together so quickly.
Please understand, I'm not actively asking for suggestions; I have plenty of ideas that have been in development for years. But I know that players have their own ideas and, once in a while, one of those ideas will be something I could never have thought of on my own - something more exciting than anything I currently have planned. I read and accept suggestions to find those community ideas.

Please don't be discouraged, though! It's possible you'll think of something that will blow me away. But consider your own ideas critically and search for that hook.

First of all, just want to say that i LOVE this mod. I can literaly feel your passion as you were making this mod everytime I find one of the enemies in game, I really want to help develop this mod, so I made this concept of a boss mob for the mod. Sorry about any english mistakes btw


The Tidal Acclaimer (T.A. for short) is a stationary "structure-like" boss mob who lives in deep oceans waiting for an unsuspecting target to pass over. When a player passes over, in a boat or just swimming, The Tidal Acclaimer creates a whirlpools that pulls the player to the bottom of the sea and then, the boss fight begins. The fight consistis in mining the squid's blocks using a sword to give it damage, while killing the tentacles it summons. The heart block can be found inside the T.A, and it's very easy to mine, if you mine it the squid takes extra damage.

->The T.A. Summons his tentacles that can smash players
-> If the player tries to swim upwards away from T.A., it will create a whirlpool dragging the player to the boss fight again.
-> When the player breaks XXX amount of T.A. blocks, the giant squid will unleash a powerful roar that will knockback the player and it will summon new tentacles.

The T.A blocks always drops and can be used in many different ways:


-> To decorate in general. The T.A. Eye Block can be given a redstone signal to emit light!
-> They can be heated in a furnace to create a block of cooked Kraken meat, where it can be eaten like a cake (and maybe, give the player a buff). It regenerates more hunger than a cake too!
-> Using the heart block, the player can craft The Tidal Caller Staff

The Tidal Caller Staff allows the player to summon water tentacles from water source blocks that can attack foes. I thought of two ways of using the staff

-> The tentacles attack any hostile mob that is near it's range, as well as creatures the player attacks
-> Or... after they are summoned, the tentacles attacks where the player points with the staff.

So that's my idea, here is some concept art I did!

Unaowaka is a wandering mob that is
mainly found in jungles, the idea
is that he has been banned from his tribe
by possessing a very unstable and powerful magic.

The renegade travels through various biomes, hunting
and surviving only with its Pyromancy,
if it finds a player, it hides and
prepares to use the surroundings as a weapon,
setting fire to the ground, trees and anything else
which is potentially flammable, in addition he
directly attacks the player with massive damage.

When killed, Unaowaka drop his mask
which grants the player Pyromancy.
Pyromancy mainly focuses on pure damage, destruction

and chaos.

That's just a concept, I didn't want to give too many
details of what I thought to really serve
as an inspiration if you like the idea!
I really love this mod and would love to see more
and more of it in the future.

Here's some concept art i did!

Honestly, the Caves & Cliffs update is going to open so many doors for potential enemies! I even came up a couple of mobs themed off of the new biomes that'll be added in this update!

- Impaler: Spawning in Dripstone Caves, these weak enemies take the form of spider-like monsters with stalactites for protective shells. They like to cling themselves on the ceiling to blend in with the other stalactites before dropping down on uncareful travelers, dealing massive damage. However, in doing so they end up getting stuck in the ground for a few seconds, giving the player an opportunity to strike them down before they shoot a string of web up to the ceiling in order to pull themselves back up. They also tend to spawn in groups, too.

- Axolotl Mage: Spawning in Lush Caves, Axolotl Mages are unique and rare mobs that serve as friendly NPCs players can trade with, selling a handful of unique items and cosmetics found nowhere else in the world. Attacking an Axolotl Mage will cause it to teleport away, but not before casting a spell which turns the player into an axolotl for a few seconds! His most expensive item is the Axolotl Wand, which grants all tamed axolotls to float in the air as of they were underwater, allowing them to attack land enemies as well as aquatic ones.

- Raker: While the Warden rules over the Deep Dark, the Rakers reside within this biome as some of it's frightening denizens. Being nearly as tall as the player and armed with sharp scythes for hands, they will quietly stalk the player as the traverse through the Deep Dark and are able to crawl along the walls and upside down on the roof of the cave in pursuit of them. Although dealing with one of them can be manageable, a Raker at low health will have a chance of releasing a signal which attracts all other Rakers to it's current location, who will then attack the player if they don't escape quick enough. On death, Rakers will have a chance to drop their long claws, which can then be crafted into Climbing Hooks. Lastly, Raker naturally fear the Warden, and will flee whenever it is near.

I'm also thinking about potential mob ideas for flooded caves, too.

Just wondering, are the 1.14/1.15 versions still planned? A lot of mods seem to skip to 1.16.

I am still planning to release for those intermediate versions!

New patch! Update for more fixes and config options!

Mowzie's Mobs 1.5.7 is out! Model updates, bugfixes, and balancing changes!

Nah, just last minute tweaks and bug fixes before I port to new MC versions.
