Ender Dragon

The Ender Dragon, the final boss, resides in the End dimension. Its health is replenished by Ender Crystals, requiring their destruction before focusing on the dragon itself.
Tactics & Defeat:
Image: ensigame.com
The dragon employs Dragon Breath, fireballs, and a devastating Charge Attack. Prioritize destroying the crystals. During its Perch Phase, when it lands on the End Portal, it's most vulnerable to melee attacks. A Sharpness V sword is highly effective here.

Wither

The Wither, a three-headed undead monstrosity, must be summoned. Its attacks inflict the Wither effect and cause devastating explosions.
Tactics & Defeat:
Image: ensigame.com
The Wither unleashes Wither Skulls (blue skulls are particularly potent). Below 50% health, it enters Berserk Mode, regenerating health and charging relentlessly.

Equip a fully enchanted Netherite sword (Smite V), a Power V bow, and full Netherite armor (Protection IV or Blast Protection IV). Stock up on Strength II, Regeneration, and Healing potions, Milk buckets (to cure the Wither effect), Golden Apples, and Totems of Undying. Fight in a confined space to restrict its movement.
Warden

The Warden, a blind but acutely sensitive mob inhabiting the Deep Dark biome, is a force to be reckoned with. It detects vibrations.
Tactics & Defeat:
Image: ensigame.com
The Warden's attacks are devastating. Stealth is paramount; sneaking minimizes vibrations. If combat is unavoidable, use a Power V bow at range and a Sharpness V Netherite sword up close. Milk buckets counteract the Slowness effect. Night Vision, Regeneration, Healing, and Speed potions are essential.

Ravager
Image: ensigame.com
The Ravager, a powerful raid mob, charges through villages, destroying structures and crops.
Tactics & Defeat:
Image: ensigame.com
The Ravager's melee attacks are brutal. Use a Power V bow at range, switching to a Sharpness V or Smite V Netherite sword for close combat. Prioritize dodging its charge.

Evoker
Image: ensigame.com
The Evoker, found in Woodland Mansions and during raids, summons Vexes and uses other powerful spells.
Tactics & Defeat:
Image: ensigame.com
The Evoker's attacks are varied and dangerous. Prioritize killing the Evoker before dealing with the Vexes.

Enderman
Image: ensigame.com
Endermen are hostile when looked at directly. They teleport and are immune to projectiles.
Tactics & Defeat:
Image: ensigame.com
Use a Sharpness V sword; bows are ineffective. Wear a carved pumpkin to avoid provoking them. Water or a two-block-high shelter provides safety.

Piglin Brute
Image: ensigame.com
The Piglin Brute, found in Bastion Remnants, is always aggressive and wields a golden axe.
Tactics & Defeat:
Image: ensigame.com
The Piglin Brute is a powerful melee attacker. Use a Power V bow or a Sharpness V Netherite sword. High ground and shields offer tactical advantages.

Shulker
Image: ensigame.com
Shulkers, found in End Cities, shoot homing projectiles that inflict Levitation.
Tactics & Defeat:
Image: ensigame.com
Use a Sharpness V sword or a Power V bow. Feather Falling boots and water buckets mitigate fall damage from Levitation. Milk buckets remove the Levitation effect.

Phantom
Image: ensigame.com
Phantoms spawn when the player hasn't slept for three nights.
Tactics & Defeat:
Image: ensigame.com
Use a Power V bow from a distance. Regular sleeping prevents their appearance.

Hoglin
Image: ensigame.com
Hoglins, found in the Crimson Forest, are powerful melee attackers.
Tactics & Defeat:

Use a Sharpness V sword or a Power V bow. Warped Fungus can be used to manipulate their movement.
