Frostfire Boneguard

Quickstart

Find a Frostfire Boneguard in the Overworld, then interact with it while holding an apple to tame it. It will sit when tamed. Interact with it again to make it stand and follow you; interact once more to make it sit.

When standing, it can help in a fight: attack a living target, or let one hit you, and your Boneguard will join in with melee attacks.

Overview

The Frostfire Boneguard is a tameable skeleton companion. It follows its owner when standing and can be told to stay put by making it sit.

What It Adds

• A tameable mob that spawns naturally in the Overworld.
• A matching spawn egg, available in the Creative Spawn Eggs tab.
• A companion with 26 health and 4 base melee damage.

How To Use

• Tame: Interact with an untamed Boneguard while holding an apple. One apple is used outside Creative mode.
• Follow or sit: As its owner, interact with it to toggle between sitting and standing. It starts out sitting after taming.
• Fight together: A standing tamed Boneguard targets living creatures you attack and living creatures that hurt you. Sitting Boneguards do not respond to your combat.

Crafting And Obtaining

Boneguards can spawn naturally in the Overworld, in groups of 1–6. The spawn egg is available from the Creative Spawn Eggs tab; no crafting recipe is listed for it.

Abilities And Mechanics

The Boneguard fights at close range with melee attacks. Its owner’s combat triggers its targeting; wild Boneguards do not select targets through this owner-defense behavior.
