Mod Wiki
Zombie Magnet
Quickstart
- Creative: Find the Zombie Magnet spawn egg in the Spawn Eggs inventory tab and use it on the ground.
- Survival: Look for this hostile mob in dark areas of the Overworld.
- To see its abilities, approach within 10 blocks and wait for a pull. Getting within 3 blocks risks having eligible armor stolen; its melee attacks can also steal tools or weapons from your hands.
- Keep valuable gear out of reach if you want to avoid losing it. Stolen items drop when the Zombie Magnet dies.
Overview
The Zombie Magnet is a hostile zombie that pursues and attacks players. It periodically pulls nearby players toward itself, steals certain armor when close, and has a chance to take eligible held tools or weapons when it lands a melee hit.
What It Adds
| Content | Details |
|---|---|
| Zombie Magnet | A hostile Overworld mob with 30 health and 5 attack damage. |
| Spawn egg | A Creative-mode spawn egg named Zombie Magnet. |
How To Use
There is no crafting recipe for the spawn egg. Use it on the ground to spawn the mob in Creative mode. In Survival, it can spawn naturally in dark Overworld areas.
Abilities And Mechanics
- Pull: About every 8 seconds, it pulls the nearest eligible player within 10 blocks toward itself. This effect skips Creative and Spectator players.
- Armor theft: Within 3 blocks, it can steal one randomly selected iron, gold, or netherite helmet, chestplate, leggings, or boots you are wearing. After a successful theft, it waits about 2 seconds before it can steal armor again.
- Held gear theft: When a melee attack hits, there is a 40% chance it will take an eligible item from your main or off hand: an iron, gold, or netherite sword, pickaxe, axe, shovel, or hoe.
- Drops: Stolen gear drops when the Zombie Magnet dies. It also has a 30% chance to drop 1–2 iron ingots and awards 8 experience points.
Progression And Strategy
Put away valuable eligible tools and weapons before engaging, and avoid staying close if you want to protect your armor. If it steals your gear, defeat it to recover the stolen items from its drops.
