Voidfire Cannon Behemoth

Quickstart

Find the Voidfire Cannon Behemoth Spawn Egg in the Creative inventory and use it on a clear patch of ground. Leave plenty of room: the Behemoth is about 7 blocks tall and 3.8 blocks wide.

You can also summon it with:

/summon com_voidfire_cannon_behemoth_pa7cjhjx:mycustom

Try fighting it from behind solid cover, and avoid getting close enough for its melee attacks.

Overview

The Voidfire Cannon Behemoth is a hostile boss that targets players. It has 5,089 health, a boss bar, and darkens the sky nearby. It attacks players it can see, pursuing them on foot and switching between cannon fire and close-range strikes.

What It Adds

How To Use

The Behemoth can spawn naturally alone, on the surface in low light (light level 0–7) on Hard difficulty. To encounter it on demand, use its spawn egg or the summon command above.

Abilities And Mechanics

• Cannon shot: From a distance, it fires a dark plasma bolt toward its target. The bolt detonates when it hits a player or a block. Players within 3.5 blocks of the blast can take heavy fire damage and be knocked back.
• Slash and bash: At close range, it alternates between a slash and a heavier bash. Both strikes deal heavy damage and knock players back.
• Line of sight: It looks for players within about 40 blocks, but needs a clear line of sight to target and attack them. It can fire its cannon from up to about 34 blocks away.

Progression And Strategy

Break line of sight with solid terrain to interrupt its attacks and make cannon bolts hit obstacles. Keep moving, and avoid trading melee blows: the Behemoth has an enormous health pool and its strikes can knock you away.

Defeating it drops 8–16 iron ingots, 4–10 redstone, and 2–6 gunpowder. A player kill can also yield 1–2 diamonds (20% base chance) or 1 Netherite Scrap (6% base chance); Looting can improve bonus drops.
