Umbrus

Quickstart

1. Open your Creative inventory or spawn egg menu and grab the Umbrus spawn egg (found in the Spawn Eggs tab).
2. Use the egg on grass or ground in the Overworld to summon an Umbrus.
3. Stand back and let it work — Umbrus will automatically hunt down nearby hostile mobs to keep you safe.
4. You can also encounter Umbrus naturally while wandering the Overworld, since it spawns on its own alongside other creatures.

Overview

Umbrus is a large, sniffer-shaped guardian creature that behaves like a loyal protector rather than a threat. It looks like a docile Sniffer, but it's actually a tough combatant that seeks out and attacks hostile mobs on sight, helping to clear dangerous creatures away from players.

What It Adds

• Umbrus — a new passive-looking but combat-capable mob styled after the Sniffer.
• Umbrus Spawn Egg — lets you summon Umbrus directly wherever you like.

How To Use

• Spawning: Use the Umbrus spawn egg on any block to place one in the world. Umbrus also spawns naturally in Overworld biomes in small groups.
• Behavior: Once active, Umbrus wanders the area, keeps an eye on nearby players, and automatically targets and attacks any hostile mobs it detects.
• Combat: When Umbrus lands a hit, it also knocks its target backward, making it effective at pushing hostile mobs away from you.
• Survivability: Umbrus is built to take a beating — it has significantly more health, damage, and knockback resistance than a typical mob, so it can hold its own against most hostile creatures.

Crafting And Obtaining

Umbrus has no crafting recipe. Obtain it by:

• Using the Umbrus Spawn Egg from Creative inventory or commands, or
• Finding one that has spawned naturally in the Overworld.

Abilities And Mechanics

Progression And Strategy

Umbrus isn't something you need to feed, tame, or upgrade — it's ready to defend an area the moment it's placed. Use it to guard bases, farms, or outposts by spawning several nearby; their automatic targeting of hostile mobs makes them effective sentries against nighttime spawns or dangerous areas. Since they don't distinguish between mob types beyond "hostile," they'll engage anything from zombies to skeletons without needing direction from you.
