I only rely on iron Golem, 3-4 stack iron ingots. I summoned 3 iron Golems then when the Warden attacked one of the Iron Golems, I keep healing the Iron Golem who was fighting with Warden. I heal a bit away because the Warden will instantly change his target and attack me to death.
You left out the most powerful killing method, entity cramming. Setup your pit to push the warden into a 1 by 1 hole, with 24 minecarts waiting at the bottom.
@@DMZ_5 Tango Tek has a wither killing farm using entity cramming by trapping the withers in the bedrock roof of the nether in a way they won't suffocate, and spawning enough withers to entity cram them all. He did this in survival too, on Hermitcraft.
I think the warden going away during suffocation might be because Sparklez went back into creative mode. The warden lost his target, and with no more aggro, he went away since he wasn't "needed" anymore according to the game.
You could also dig a hole and fill it with powdered snow and freeze it to death, it's slow but it still works and it completely safe. You could also just spawn a bunch of snow golems to distract it while you shoot at it
dig a 16 block deep hole in a wall at the edge of a city and put an iron golem on a lead just outside the hole. as long as you hit the warden once he will ignore the iron golem and continue to pathfind towards you. as long as you stay 15 blocks from the warden in the 2 block high hole the warden wont be able to hurt you. but the iron golem outside will attack the warden without taking any damage. all you do is wait
Smite does more damage to the warden. Even though it is classified as a undead mob harming potions still hurt him. It kinda makes sense that he is a undead mob. You can see bones and souls on him.
My gf and I have been exploring the ancient cities, and she used the bubble elevator method for quick escapes. We have a couple of them dotted around so we can always get back to one if we trigger a warden. We get up just high enough to be out of blast range, then wail on him with powered bows :)
The suffocation one is probably the most practical for explorers imo. Since only one warden can spawn at a time, if you can just hold the warden in one place for as long as possible, then you can feel free to explore the immediate area without worrying about being killed.

@@richardpike8748 I saw that! It's cool! It just feels like too much prep? I can't really wrap my head around how it works. Again, a video or something would be great.
In my own playing around in creative, I learned the warden fits in a water elevator, I've also seen another youtuber come up with a drowning system to kill the warden using a note block to draw it in, a water elevator to take it up, and then have it move over and drown with a hopper to collect the catalyst block. There are a few things people could do if they want to collect a currently not very useful block
*OP strategy that works for both the Warden and the Wither...* Set up a 2-block-deep hole surrounded by obsidian and with an obsidian ceiling that has a 1-block high spacing above the hole, then enter the hole after the boss is summoned. *This allows you to use End Crystals to deal a lot of damage.*
Fishing rod - Found out by Grian - attatch the rod to the warden guy, tower upwards with wool most likely, with rod in off hand. Go as high as possible, you may even have to mine upwards (carefully). Then tug on that rod and mister warden will go flying and take lots of fall damage. Works better when multiple people have rods on the warden (4+) and pull him up at the same time.
Another option: Iron golems. About half as tough as a Warden, friendly, hit like trucks and mass producible with iron blocks and pumpkins being all you need, they'll draw all the aggro away from you, as well as swarm whatever warden(s) you're fighting, just gotta make sure you build more golems than the amount of wardens you're fighting, they're not MUCH weaker than Wardens, but they ARE still weaker, so you'll need the numbers. It's also a good use for the iron and pumpkins, since if you already have better gear and have access to food, you can basically just make a small army at little to no cost to you and watch the brawl play out, plus the golems can be healed too with ingots. And while you won't get the XP, you WILL get the drops, I think you could probably even get some of the iron you spent making the golems back on their deaths, which isn't much, but it works so you can make even more as long as you have enough pumpkin heads.
I love that the warden can just say "Nah I'm not feeling it today" and just leave. Though technically speaking you 'might' be able to combine the bow and piston strategy to speed up the process.
It can also do it in Java. When initially released in the snapshots, it could kill 4 or 5 withers in succession, but got killed 2 v 1 because it kept changing targets.
The resistance effect helps with all warden attacks and using an axe crit or sword crit repeatedly can take him out. I play on bedrock so I’m used to killing the wither which has 600 health. Golden apples and enchanted golden apples are very helpful
i was gonna say he didn't use strength or regen or golden apples or anything during the head-on fight and i feel like with the addition of those things he'd probably stand a chance
A good way to kill the Warden, Get it in the hole shown in this video, have a Target block with a bunch of pre-shot arrows and the activating it will do some decent damage(at least more than 40 hearts depending on how you shot the arrows
As long as the Warden hits them directly, a handful of pillagers make surprisingly quick work of him, though they won't aggro on him if he uses the sonic blast. Of course, I had to test this in creative mode.
enchants and potions definitely need to be introduced into this but it is true with the bow thing. also maybe we can do something with ice and the spikes as well to add to the arrow hole method? sorry if I seem like I'm thinking to hard about it I'm getting in a power gaming mind set.
Either we need new weapons to take out mobs like the warden exclusively, or we need an enchantment, sneaking around the deep dark feels terrifying if you don't have stacks of wool to spend
@@TheAwes0meo It is yes, but there needs to be an endgame somewhere where you can overcome the warden. First you're forced to sneak, then you can fight
@@RaiuAdami they don't get the fact that your more interested in taking him out in the end game even faster in the mentioned method. but honestly by end game you should have more than enough by then heck I only saved up in the begining from 3 or 4 sheep and had allot. pluss there are allot more ways to make emeralds like introducing a Fletcher for sticks and such. depending on there emerald trade farmers can be profitable but honestly Zombify them for max profit if you can maybe even get village hero bonus.
I saw this on the minecraft subreddit and found that spawning an iron golem and healing it with iron ingots is an effective way of killing the warden. Although expensive, it gets the job done.
This is a fantastic video, because it gave me an idea. For the second trap with the trap doors, place some pressure plates on the floor in the pit for multiple dispensers to shoot arrows at it, all while you play hit and run tactics with it. That way you continue damaging it as it triggers the traps and keeps it’s attention hitting it then getting to a safe distance to heal.
I like how mojang said that the warden isn't supposed to be a boss fight, it's supposed to be a punishment and yet everyone is treating it as a boss fight. I find using a power V bow to be effective and using an elytra to keep my distance. Now I'm here looking for ideas on how to farm the warden because the catalyst drops a ton of xp when mined
@Eh? 一人一 I feel like a blaze would have a better chance of beating a warden than the wither would because blazes tend to be better at maintaining that height advantage while shooting from a distance (until they go in for a melee attack which I didn't know blazes could do). I agree about wardens and elder guardians not being bosses. Elder guardians have never felt like a boss to me, especially because I've never died to them (they can't do that much damage other than thorns damage because I'm always geared up before taking on an ocean monument). Wardens are another one I've never died to (that I can remember at least) and I think the thing that stops them from being a boss level threat is that they don't have the flight ability so you can literally just fly up to a ledge and snipe them with a bow. It's also weird that wardens have a despawn mechanic whereas all the others stay spawned once they have been. I also really like the idea of a new boss in some kind of skulk dimension. The thought that there could be a mob that makes the warden look like a regular minecraft zombie or something is terrifying and I'm sure the rewards would be proportional to the difficulty of the boss
If spiders are allowed to climb walls indefinitely, I don’t think it’s unreasonable for the 3 block tall warden to be able to climb a 2 block tall wall

You can actually do the drop method with a water elevator trap, another option to try though might be an anvil recycling trap… but there is the chance they break
They should add a Curse onto the Player after they manage to kill the Warden, like when you pick up a Pillager's Banner. Something to actively punish them for killing it.
@@prometheanrebel3838 the lack of a reward for killing the warden, and the "costs" related to killing him, are already punishment enough. Although ngl, I like the idea of a curse or effect as an additional punishment.
@@adrian225 I had this string of ideas when the Warden was the first buzz. -Firstly, I want to address how the Devs say that making a tower wouldn't save you. I propose that the Warden generates Sculk under it's feet as it walks anywhere that's not in the Deep Dark. The Warden could also make a "Sculk Wall" up a cliff that only it can climb, if it knows you escaped upwards. -Secondly, I want to address any possible weaknesses. The first obvious one I think, should be Sunlight, but instead of damaging the Warden, it afflicts it with Weakness. Also, I think that Water should also be a weakness against the Warden, but only temporarily. Unlike Endermen, the Warden will be afflicted with Slow and Weakness, but if its in the water for too long, it'll infest it, turning it into a new type of water; Deep Murk. -Deep Murk will be a water type found exclusively in the Deep Dark and its Cities. This thick water moves at about 1.5 times the speed of lava, and appears pitch-black on the surface, and causes Darkness to the Player if they're standing in it. -The waters of the Deep Dark should not be barren, however, as I imagine the Deep Murk is actually very bright and glow under the void-like surface, teeming with Sculk-infested plant and marine-life.
In thinking of a way to transport the Warden up 255 blocks with a bubble column, it occured to me that you might force it to despawn when it gets 128 blocks away, so that might be another way to get rid of it.
Yes, then have string covered over the dripstone which will trigger pistons to push the warden back into the bubble column. Infinite repeat of dropping the warden. You can prolly do this at like 50 blocks high or something. A warden meat grinder
7:10 Unless they don't affect him (though not entirely early game?), you could use a bubble elevator with soul sand to get him that high Then have a tunnel beside it for yourself, follow him up, then use a trapdoor hole on a platform at the VERY top, to get him to fall down onto the dripstone I'd have to test it, tho. Yet to find an ancient city to do so =/
You know... This is surprisingly relevant, because my younger bro found a pretty funny way to do this himself. Probably why I'm getting recommended this video anyways. Iron Golem and a stack of Iron Ingots. You can probably put together what the process is yourself. If not, then it's real simple. You construct the Iron Golem, you go about your business and end up summoning the Warden. You immediately get behind the Iron Golem, which will start smacking it around, keeping the Warden's aggro on it instead of you. It does a ton more damage than the Iron Golem, and will break it down faster than it can kill the Warden, which is where the Iron Ingots come in, as you stay close behind the Iron Golem, keeping it repaired to full health. Done right, you can probably even do it with less than a stack, but that's how my bro did it. Expensive, sure, but surprisingly effective...
Apologies for the long comment, but it's very insightful. The Warden. It's the same model size as a player, 1 block long and 2 blocks tall. You can easily push it along with water, it cannot be placed into a boat or cart. 2 efficient ways of killing the warden, that I've personally found are; - Entity cramming with 24 carts, cost is 124ish iron and a lot of players have an easy iron farm. - Tnt, cost is 11 tnt just out of its projectile range and a lot of players have creeper farms. I have tested many ways to kill Wardens on my own ttv stream and have learned a lot (without looking up anything about the Warden. The things I took away from testing is lava/fire immunity, roughly 1 min - 1 min 5 sec natural despawn time when agro is lost, dripstone fall is normally inefficient even with a good water elevator setup, cacti and or poison potions aren't worth the cost and is inefficient at killing. So realistically your best bet and options are trap door drop downs a small chase distance away is good, force contains a warden so you can run back to where you are at and what you were doing.
What are the chances that the arrow method is gonna be gone because they changed the warden AI to always dig down when they can't deal any dmg to the player but the player keeps dmging the warden. What if the warden can actually dig down and dig back up to unstuck itself...
1. would golden apple/potions be an improvement to the "trap him and hit him with a sword" method? 2. could you add dispensers into the suffocation chamber firing arrows at him while he suffocates?
To easily kill the Warden, create a 2x2 hole at least 3 blocks deep, cover it with a trapdoor, and lure the Warden to fall in. Once it's trapped, drop sand to suffocate it. Use a shield to block its attacks, then remove the trapdoor to keep adding sand.
does the warden get affected by potion effects? could you setup a bounce pad, hit it with levitation and have it land and bounce while hitting it on its landing and be fine? I don't think it can Sonic boom midair. my other idea is 64 despenser setup in a hallway filled with arrows and having the thing chase you through it. every Despenser would only have to hit once. could even use sculk to trigger it for the irony.
So, some things I would like you to test. A. Entity cramming attack. B. Effects of weakness potion on warden. Also tipped arrows. C. Cobwebs versus wardens. And soul sand. And D. Can sculk catalyst generated screamers initatie a warden spawn.
@@learnyoutube3865 I figured it’d be an easy low skill kill with a dispenser and hoppers. Not super practical but could be fun. (Also for anyone wondering it would take 56 instant damage 2 potions if that was your only source of damage.)
I heard from someone that diamond armor might actually be better, since it has the same protection amount and the increased knock back helps you get away from the warden more easily since he knocks you back when he hits you.
The suffocation method could still work, you just have to hit the warden every once in a awhile to convince them to stay. (If the warden doesn't detected anything alive after a while then it'll just leave.)
For those who wanted to go melee to defeat the warden, here are netherite sword and netherite axe hits with sharpness 5 Netherite Sword Hit: 32 Netherite Sword Hit (Critical): 22 Netherite Axe Hit: 34 Netherite Axe Hit (Critical): 23
@@denischen8196 I cannot confirm if warden has a resistance to critical hits. But there is one thing to know, and that is that critical hits have less hits than normal hits
Kind of sad that they made such a cool mob so pointless. It offers no real reward like the wither (nether stars) or the ender dragon (end islands access). Yes it guards some unique loot, but it ends up being just an overpowered annoyance.
Which is exactly the point of its existence, forcing you to to forgo the usual "UNGA BUNGA ME KILL ALL MONSTERS" approach that we're so used to afford on any non-boss mob and play by his rules.
The first time I tried to do this I was 10 shots of vodka deep. I lost. The second time I followed your instructions completely and it worked. Moral of my story: do it while you’re sober
I left out cactus pit as an option but I'm pretty sure unless you were constantly angering the warden it would also decide to abandon ship.

A huge amount of potions in dispensers may also work, but the massive set up for something like that definitely disqualifies it from being a "best" way to kill the warden.
can you box the warden with a full potion setup? is the warden immune to negative potions?
Do wardens go up water elevators? Might be a consistent way to drop them from 255 blocks onto spikes.

And while you won't get the XP, you WILL get the drops, I think you could probably even get some of the iron you spent making the golems back on their deaths, which isn't much, but it works so you can make even more as long as you have enough pumpkin heads.
Captainsparklez: "Oh, I guess he got bored and decided to leave" Pure gold.
The warden leaving during suffocation was hilarious
I love that the warden can just say "Nah I'm not feeling it today" and just leave. Though technically speaking you 'might' be able to combine the bow and piston strategy to speed up the process.
Arrow rail guns would be perfect to quickly destroy wardens.

On Bedrock the Warden can kill the Wither solo without dying. 💀
But it can not damage the dragon... so sad
It can also do it in Java.
When initially released in the snapshots, it could kill 4 or 5 withers in succession, but got killed 2 v 1 because it kept changing targets.
@@suzannestrickland1586 it can sonic boom go brrrr
@@az1202
I set it up on bedrock and let it loose... I broke the crystals and got them targeting it... no damage. Not even with the sonic boom
@@suzannestrickland1586 prob not aggroed
The resistance effect helps with all warden attacks and using an axe crit or sword crit repeatedly can take him out. I play on bedrock so I’m used to killing the wither which has 600 health. Golden apples and enchanted golden apples are very helpful
i was gonna say he didn't use strength or regen or golden apples or anything during the head-on fight and i feel like with the addition of those things he'd probably stand a chance
If you play on bedrock it's suggested to use a sword, because unlike in Java, swords do more damages.
@@Blueninja-xt4ci Swords don’t do more damage but there is no cooldown after each hit so you can spam it

next update: warden can jump 3 blocks, is immune to arrows, crawls when a block appears ontop of them, breaks the dripstones it falls on...
Me digging a hole to trap the Warden:
The Warden behind me: That's a nice hole you got there.
Simply using turtle master potions and good food makes it a breeze, and you can use strength potions on top of it to be even easier.
Mojang: The Warden will be the hardest mob in the game! You'll have to hide from it instead of fighting it!
Players: Hole + bow :]
That's because they made it the most annoying mob in the game, not the hardest.
Just not worth fighting, except for the street cred.
A good way to kill the Warden, Get it in the hole shown in this video, have a Target block with a bunch of pre-shot arrows and the activating it will do some decent damage(at least more than 40 hearts depending on how you shot the arrows
As long as the Warden hits them directly, a handful of pillagers make surprisingly quick work of him, though they won't aggro on him if he uses the sonic blast. Of course, I had to test this in creative mode.
enchants and potions definitely need to be introduced into this but it is true with the bow thing. also maybe we can do something with ice and the spikes as well to add to the arrow hole method? sorry if I seem like I'm thinking to hard about it I'm getting in a power gaming mind set.
Either we need new weapons to take out mobs like the warden exclusively, or we need an enchantment, sneaking around the deep dark feels terrifying if you don't have stacks of wool to spend
@@RaiuAdami But sneaking around and not having weapons to deal with him is the whole point.
@@TheAwes0meo It is yes, but there needs to be an endgame somewhere where you can overcome the warden. First you're forced to sneak, then you can fight
@@RaiuAdami no,
Ruins the warden
@@RaiuAdami they don't get the fact that your more interested in taking him out in the end game even faster in the mentioned method. but honestly by end game you should have more than enough by then heck I only saved up in the begining from 3 or 4 sheep and had allot. pluss there are allot more ways to make emeralds like introducing a Fletcher for sticks and such. depending on there emerald trade farmers can be profitable but honestly Zombify them for max profit if you can maybe even get village hero bonus.
8:55 Warden: "You know what, fork this short I'm out, peace spaklez"
I saw this on the minecraft subreddit and found that spawning an iron golem and healing it with iron ingots is an effective way of killing the warden. Although expensive, it gets the job done.
Ah the government solution. Just keep throwing money at a defense contractor.
The dripstone method made me remember the golden lasso from that one mod and how great it would be to have it a real item in the game
This is a fantastic video, because it gave me an idea. For the second trap with the trap doors, place some pressure plates on the floor in the pit for multiple dispensers to shoot arrows at it, all while you play hit and run tactics with it. That way you continue damaging it as it triggers the traps and keeps it’s attention hitting it then getting to a safe distance to heal.
I like how mojang said that the warden isn't supposed to be a boss fight, it's supposed to be a punishment and yet everyone is treating it as a boss fight. I find using a power V bow to be effective and using an elytra to keep my distance. Now I'm here looking for ideas on how to farm the warden because the catalyst drops a ton of xp when mined
@Eh? 一人一 I feel like a blaze would have a better chance of beating a warden than the wither would because blazes tend to be better at maintaining that height advantage while shooting from a distance (until they go in for a melee attack which I didn't know blazes could do).
I agree about wardens and elder guardians not being bosses. Elder guardians have never felt like a boss to me, especially because I've never died to them (they can't do that much damage other than thorns damage because I'm always geared up before taking on an ocean monument). Wardens are another one I've never died to (that I can remember at least) and I think the thing that stops them from being a boss level threat is that they don't have the flight ability so you can literally just fly up to a ledge and snipe them with a bow. It's also weird that wardens have a despawn mechanic whereas all the others stay spawned once they have been.
I also really like the idea of a new boss in some kind of skulk dimension. The thought that there could be a mob that makes the warden look like a regular minecraft zombie or something is terrifying and I'm sure the rewards would be proportional to the difficulty of the boss
@Eh? 一人一 withers are kind of easy to kill even in bedrock
Warden: "If I don't suffocate in 15 minutes I'm legally allowed to leave."
If spiders are allowed to climb walls indefinitely, I don’t think it’s unreasonable for the 3 block tall warden to be able to climb a 2 block tall wall
shhh the devs might hotfix that to be a thing. Then we'd all need 3 deep pits to trap it lol
Spiders are known for STICKING to WALLS. Now take an elephant, and have it climb something comparable to it in size. Good luck
@@Plusle843 not even a remotely close comparison. It’s more like asking a person with extra long arms to climb on top of an average sedan car. A completely reasonable ask.
@@chapystick_ Except that look at arms, and then look at BODY. It's asking an OVERWEIGHT person lift himself over an edge. Let's also remember that Warden is BLIND. COMPLETELY. DO you know many blind people that climb edges? Even waist high?
@@Plusle843 yet the size of its arms are bigger than its body combined. I still don’t think a blind gorilla who never skips arm day would have trouble crawling onto a wall at armpit height
You can actually do the drop method with a water elevator trap, another option to try though might be an anvil recycling trap… but there is the chance they break
Can't wait for Mojang to just add massive healing to the Warden to just make people stop trying to kill it.
I actually hope they do this AND make him completely immune to fall damage. Including dripstone
They should add a Curse onto the Player after they manage to kill the Warden, like when you pick up a Pillager's Banner. Something to actively punish them for killing it.
@@prometheanrebel3838 the lack of a reward for killing the warden, and the "costs" related to killing him, are already punishment enough. Although ngl, I like the idea of a curse or effect as an additional punishment.
@@adrian225 I had this string of ideas when the Warden was the first buzz.
-Firstly, I want to address how the Devs say that making a tower wouldn't save you. I propose that the Warden generates Sculk under it's feet as it walks anywhere that's not in the Deep Dark. The Warden could also make a "Sculk Wall" up a cliff that only it can climb, if it knows you escaped upwards.
-Secondly, I want to address any possible weaknesses. The first obvious one I think, should be Sunlight, but instead of damaging the Warden, it afflicts it with Weakness. Also, I think that Water should also be a weakness against the Warden, but only temporarily. Unlike Endermen, the Warden will be afflicted with Slow and Weakness, but if its in the water for too long, it'll infest it, turning it into a new type of water; Deep Murk.
-Deep Murk will be a water type found exclusively in the Deep Dark and its Cities. This thick water moves at about 1.5 times the speed of lava, and appears pitch-black on the surface, and causes Darkness to the Player if they're standing in it.
-The waters of the Deep Dark should not be barren, however, as I imagine the Deep Murk is actually very bright and glow under the void-like surface, teeming with Sculk-infested plant and marine-life.
Every 5 sec warden recover 3 hp in normal and 6 in hardcore
Mojang: ima pretend i didn´t see that
Weird without facecam, but it’s still a good video! :D
Wassup sparklez...havent been back since the aquatic update and oh man lots of stuff to learn again. You the man
In thinking of a way to transport the Warden up 255 blocks with a bubble column, it occured to me that you might force it to despawn when it gets 128 blocks away, so that might be another way to get rid of it.
I love all the attempts you did that is a nice style
7:27 set up a bubble column to bring the warden to 255 blocks above the dripstone and use water to put the warden on its way to the dripstone
Yes, then have string covered over the dripstone which will trigger pistons to push the warden back into the bubble column. Infinite repeat of dropping the warden. You can prolly do this at like 50 blocks high or something. A warden meat grinder
7:10
Unless they don't affect him (though not entirely early game?), you could use a bubble elevator with soul sand to get him that high
Then have a tunnel beside it for yourself, follow him up, then use a trapdoor hole on a platform at the VERY top, to get him to fall down onto the dripstone
I'd have to test it, tho. Yet to find an ancient city to do so =/
You know... This is surprisingly relevant, because my younger bro found a pretty funny way to do this himself. Probably why I'm getting recommended this video anyways.
Iron Golem and a stack of Iron Ingots. You can probably put together what the process is yourself.
If not, then it's real simple. You construct the Iron Golem, you go about your business and end up summoning the Warden. You immediately get behind the Iron Golem, which will start smacking it around, keeping the Warden's aggro on it instead of you. It does a ton more damage than the Iron Golem, and will break it down faster than it can kill the Warden, which is where the Iron Ingots come in, as you stay close behind the Iron Golem, keeping it repaired to full health. Done right, you can probably even do it with less than a stack, but that's how my bro did it. Expensive, sure, but surprisingly effective...
If your good, you can kill the warden head on with potions, totems, gapples.
Apologies for the long comment, but it's very insightful.
The Warden. It's the same model size as a player, 1 block long and 2 blocks tall. You can easily push it along with water, it cannot be placed into a boat or cart. 2 efficient ways of killing the warden, that I've personally found are;
- Entity cramming with 24 carts, cost is 124ish iron and a lot of players have an easy iron farm.
- Tnt, cost is 11 tnt just out of its projectile range and a lot of players have creeper farms.
I have tested many ways to kill Wardens on my own ttv stream and have learned a lot (without looking up anything about the Warden. The things I took away from testing is lava/fire immunity, roughly 1 min - 1 min 5 sec natural despawn time when agro is lost, dripstone fall is normally inefficient even with a good water elevator setup, cacti and or poison potions aren't worth the cost and is inefficient at killing. So realistically your best bet and options are trap door drop downs a small chase distance away is good, force contains a warden so you can run back to where you are at and what you were doing.
0-ticking dispensers with arrows or harming potions should do the job pretty quickly.
yeah just get him in that small hole that jordan think is the best way and have dispensers spam shoot
Thanks for this, makes it less anxious
For the sky dropping, you could do a nether trip?
For suffocation, entity cramming seems like it works better. Drop him in a ton of minecarts
Love this!! Thanks, i watch all your videos
What are the chances that the arrow method is gonna be gone because they changed the warden AI to always dig down when they can't deal any dmg to the player but the player keeps dmging the warden. What if the warden can actually dig down and dig back up to unstuck itself...
I hope they make that change it’s pathetic just seeing him there taking all the arrows not being able to do anything about it
This is very amazing I love watching Jordan and he is smart
Minecraft Players: "TRYING TO SNEAK PAST THE WARDEN TO GET LOOT"
Peaceful Mode: Am I A Joke To You?????
Not to worry in June 13th they add the Mace with the enchantment of Density V, Windburst III.
Breach is only for breaking the protection of armor.
"He got bored from suffocating and just left."
That's a line that was said.
How to kill a warden
Me going to creative mode:
1. would golden apple/potions be an improvement to the "trap him and hit him with a sword" method?
2. could you add dispensers into the suffocation chamber firing arrows at him while he suffocates?
3. Put minecarts at his feet
To easily kill the Warden, create a 2x2 hole at least 3 blocks deep, cover it with a trapdoor, and lure the Warden to fall in. Once it's trapped, drop sand to suffocate it. Use a shield to block its attacks, then remove the trapdoor to keep adding sand.
hey captain sparklez if you want a no shield cooldown for warden use forge instead 0:54

does the warden get affected by potion effects?
could you setup a bounce pad, hit it with levitation and have it land and bounce while hitting it on its landing and be fine? I don't think it can Sonic boom midair.
my other idea is 64 despenser setup in a hallway filled with arrows and having the thing chase you through it. every Despenser would only have to hit once. could even use sculk to trigger it for the irony.
By far the easiest way to kill the Warden is to just spawn in an Iron Golem and keep healing it with iron ingots while it fights the warden
They obliterate golems
We love you sparklez!
So, some things I would like you to test.
A. Entity cramming attack.
B. Effects of weakness potion on warden. Also tipped arrows.
C. Cobwebs versus wardens. And soul sand.
And D. Can sculk catalyst generated screamers initatie a warden spawn.
8:54 forget this shit im out 🤣
What about using dripstone and suffocation? Would that cause enough damage to kill the warden before it gets bored and despawns itself?
Anyone know if a ton of instant damage splash potions would do it? Or is he immune to potions?
I'll definitely have to test that

Ohhh, love the new video style!
I heard from someone that diamond armor might actually be better, since it has the same protection amount and the increased knock back helps you get away from the warden more easily since he knocks you back when he hits you.
Except in the update they made netherite actually be more protective than diamond and they slightly reduced the knockback resistance it provides
@@Alexk0200 Do you have the patch notes for that? I'm not seeing that anywhere
@@Alexk0200 oh nvm it is slightly better
I like this format
The suffocation method could still work, you just have to hit the warden every once in a awhile to convince them to stay.
(If the warden doesn't detected anything alive after a while then it'll just leave.)
what a thumbnail
I learned a lot! Thanks!
you can set up a red stone contraption to lock him by suffocation then shoot harming or normal arrows at it with dispensers.
For those who wanted to go melee to defeat the warden, here are netherite sword and netherite axe hits with sharpness 5
Netherite Sword Hit: 32
Netherite Sword Hit (Critical): 22
Netherite Axe Hit: 34
Netherite Axe Hit (Critical): 23
Why are critical hits weaker than normal hits? Does warden have resistance to critical hits?
@@denischen8196 I cannot confirm if warden has a resistance to critical hits. But there is one thing to know, and that is that critical hits have less hits than normal hits

ILY you so much your my childhood!!
Ill be honest, didnt expect this channle to have survived this long lol
People who watch the Double Life SMP know that fishing rods are the best way to kill the warden
In 4:23 if you have got endgame stuffs, choosing this method, may using magic arrows (especially, weakness) could give it a try somehow?
Um, what about tanking hits with turtle master and 20 shields + strength 2?
Kind of sad that they made such a cool mob so pointless. It offers no real reward like the wither (nether stars) or the ender dragon (end islands access). Yes it guards some unique loot, but it ends up being just an overpowered annoyance.
Which is exactly the point of its existence, forcing you to to forgo the usual "UNGA BUNGA ME KILL ALL MONSTERS" approach that we're so used to afford on any non-boss mob and play by his rules.
Sounds you don't understand the concept of a Hazard Boss. You're not supposed to fight it, you're suppose to avoid it.
Imagine if they made the Warden able to do parkour, and made it be able to detect open trapdoors.
Or for him to be able to walk right over them
@@re_4merchant idk, having the Warden do parkour and be better at it than most players would be pretty cool.
If they ever "fix" the mobs thinking trap doors are solid blocks we're all screwed.
do shriekers only summon wardens in the deep dark?
The first time I tried to do this I was 10 shots of vodka deep. I lost. The second time I followed your instructions completely and it worked. Moral of my story: do it while you’re sober
I use a fluid to slow it and then arrow it. If you want to get a catalyst at the end then use water.
