Though the action-strategy game Minecraft Legends is still more than a year away from release, interest in it is building steadily. Additionally, to heighten the anticipation, Minecraft creator Mojang has revealed the in-game foes that will aid you in taking down the Piglin adversaries. So, here is a comprehensive list of all the enemies in Minecraft Legends. There are many new creatures to look forward to, especially since they are nice and won’t blow you up to death, from new golems to a new class of Piglins. Some of the new entries are even more impressive than vanilla Minecraft mobs. Now that that has been said, it is time to investigate the Minecraft Legends mob guide.
Minecraft Legends Mobs Revealed (2022)
All the mobs revealed at Minecraft Live 2022 are included in our list. Additionally, a few of these mobs were hinted at in the game’s official interviews and teasers. We advise you to take these designs and mechanics with a grain of salt because the most of them are still under development.
Minecraft Legends Hosts: Knowledge, Action & Foresight
The first three host mobs in the Minecraft Legends story are meant to acquaint you with the new overworld. According to Mojang, the hosts: Knowledge, Action, and Foresight correspond with a player’s instincts in a typical Minecraft world. Although the mobs game mechanics have not yet been made public, we can make a good guess.
You might be led to all of the in-game objectives by the Foresight mob. To complete the goals in Minecraft Legends, Knowledge and Action will assist you in becoming familiar with the world’s resources and monsters.
Friendly Mobs of Minecraft Legends
In the utopian setting of Minecraft Legends, every mob is friendly. As a result, in the world of Minecraft Legends, all the hostile mobs from the overworld, such as zombies and creepers, assist the passive and natural mobs. Additionally, they assist you (the protagonist) in fending off the Piglins’ attack and defending the overworld. So let’s examine each one of them:
1. Zombie
Zombies are undead monsters who constantly walk the globe and attack in large groups, much like in vanilla Minecraft. They move with the players and engage in enemy combat when directed. They act likefoot soldiersof your army, the first layer of defense, and use hand-to-hand combat.
Compared to other mobs, they die much more easily. Fortunately, because of their hats, they do not burn in sunlight in Minecraft Legends, and they work alongside you during the night as well as the day.
2. Skeleton Mob
As the name reveals, skeletons are another undead mob from vanilla Minecraft that have found their way into this game. They are made up of bones andshoot arrows at enemies. Unlike zombies, they do not use hand-to-hand combat and are best kept at a distance from the main area of impact. Moreover, they can only shoot one arrow at a time and take some time to load the arrow back into the bow.
3. Llama
Llamas are friendly mobs that like to spit on their enemies. This spit has a good knockback but very low damage. At the moment, we are not sure how Minecraft legends will utilize this mob in action. But we expect llamas to be a portable storage option alongside combat animals.
4. Horse Mob
Horses are the primary vehicle in the world of Minecraft Legends. They are much faster than any other mob in-game and are a great way to explore the world. In terms of combat, the horse has to rely on you, the rider, for all the action. Based on the trailers so far, the horses don t have any fighting instincts in place.
5. Creeper
Much like vanilla Minecraft,creepers are exploding mobsin Minecraft Legends that can destroy enemy structures and kill those in its blast radius. But unfortunately, every creeper also kills itself with the explosion. So, even though creepers are a one-time-use mob, they can take down many in a single go, making them highly useful in killing grunters and runts (more on them below).
6. Emerald Cavalry Golem
If horses feel too old school for a new Minecraft game, the cavalry golems have your back. They carry you around on their back and rush toward the enemies. They have extremely high movement speed but aren t as strong. So, if they get too close to an enemy, most enemies can kill the cavalry golems in a few hits. Though, their charging and stunning ability do help delay the attack.
7. Mossy Golem
What looks like a greener baby version ofIron Golems, the mossy golemsshoot water that heals alliesand temporarily slows down the enemies. They are the perfect friend to get you out of a tricky situation or pull you back from the brink of death. The only drawback here is that the mossy golems take a long time to recharge, and they don t have any way to protect themselves from attack.
8. Plank Golem
Similar to skeletons, plank golems alsoshoot arrow-like projectiles(from their nose?) at their enemies. But, they are much faster and can shoot multiple arrows within a short span of time. In a way, the plank golems act like a mobile turret that moves around the battlefield and shoots down enemies and structures.
9. Cobblestone Golem
Cobblestone golems are combat mobs that like to stay at the frontline. They arestrong and rely heavily on melee combat. When you compare them to zombies, the cobblestone golems have higher HP, but they are also much slower. You can use them like termites to slowly but surely clear a small structure or eliminate a stronger enemy.
10. Grindstone Golem
At times, you will have to deal with a swarm of enemies in Minecraft legends. That s where the grindstone golems will come in handy. They are powerful mobs thatdeal a strong knockback and push multiple enemies at once. You can use them to clear areas and delay a strong push from the enemy army.
11. First of Stone
First of Stone is one of the most powerful and possibly the largest friendly mob you can find in Minecraft Legends. It looks like a bigger version of the Grindstone Golem andhurls stones at the Nether portal. From the looks of it, this mob is primarily made for quickly destroying the portal before more Piglins can spawn. Though, it can also help you out while dealing with large groups of enemies.
12. Turtle
Spawning around water bodies and in forests, turtles in MC Legends are similar to the vanilla game. They follow you around and provide support in the war against the Nether mobs. Though, you will have to slow down a bit to make sure the turtles can keep up.
13. Axolotls
Axolotls in Minecraftare one of the most popular in-game mobs that spawn in the forest biomes. They are cat-like creatures that you can easily recruit in your army.
14. Pigs
Contrasting to the horrifying Piglins, the Minecraft Legends overworld pigs are cute and welcoming. They spawn in most in-game biomes and are tiny. In terms of combat, they might not be your favorite mob, but having a cute friendly pig is always good for morale.
15. Allay
Allays in MinecraftLegends are different from the vanilla game. For starters, you havetwo types of Allaysin Minecraft Legends yellow and blue.
Now, instead of collecting dropped items, the blue Allays break blocks in the world on your command and bring you the desired items. The yellow Allays, on the other hand, build structures like bridges and watch towers. To make Minecraft Legends truly different, the developers want you to focus on strategy more than mundane actions.
16. Regal Tiger
For the first time ever, tigers are coming to a Minecraft game, and they are absolutely adorable. Thesepurple-colored regal tigers are the ultimate replacement for horsesin Minecraft Legends. They are rideable, fast, and powerful. You can use to them easily navigate through the world and even as amazing fighters.
17. Foxes
Foxes are known for stealing items from players in vanilla Minecraft. We don t know about their game mechanic in MC Legends yet, but we expect it to be something similar. Nevertheless, they are also going to be one of the smallest mobs in the game.
18. Wolves
If you don t know already, wolves are one of the most supportive mobs in Minecraft. They can be used to hunt hostile mobs in the vanilla game, and it seems like not much has changed in Legends. They aggressively charge toward the Piglins and survive way longer than other simpler animal-based mobs in the battle.
Hostile Mobs in Minecraft Legends
The villains of Minecraft Legends are the mobs from the Nether dimension. As per the plot, the Piglin army uses aNether portalto travel to the overworld and then tries to corrupt the area around the portal. All of these hostile mobs are based on pigs and vanilla Minecraft s Piglin mobs. So let s take a look at them:
19. Lava Launcher
The Lava Launcher is the largest mob on the team of Piglins. It is anelephant-like mobthat deals strong knockback to enemies around it. But it is even more dangerous at long range. Thanks to the launcher on its back, the Lava Launcher canthrow magma cubesto harm your army and even destroy structures. The best tactic to defeat it is by sending a large group of mobs, including and especially the golems and creepers, to attack the Lava Launcher in direct combat.
20. Piggo
Piggos are small boars with helmets and strong horns. Theytend to run toward their enemies and bash their heads in them. The damage dealt by a Piggo won t be huge, but they can push you into lethal situations. Moreover, a group of Piggos won t be easy to escape in the middle of combat. The enemies can also load them with magma cube firing catapults, which sure sounds scary.
21. Portal Guard
With an extendable hammer for the left hand, the portal guard is one of the strongest Piglins in Minecraft Legends. This mob is heavily armored and hard to kill. On top of that, it uses an extendable hammer as a weapon. This hammer shoots out and deals deadly damage along with strong pushback. It is perfect to destroy groups of enemies and defensive structures.
22. Grunter Mob
Grunters are the smallest and weakest Piglins in Minecraft Legends. They aredisposable mobs that act as foot soldiersto bait out the opponent s best utility. All grunters are low on health and die easily. Though, in a large group, they can overpower weaker enemies with the help of tiny blaze rods they carry with them.
23. Runts
Similar to the grunters, the Piglin army also has runts, which are small in size but hold weapons almost as big as themselves. Grunters haveterrible balance and struggle to walkwithout almost falling. They re also easy to kill due to low health but, if given a chance, they can deal good damage, thanks to their oversized weapons.
24. Bruiser
Bruisers are scary-looking Piglin mobs thatwield a bladein Minecraft Legends. They are extremely dangerous and should be able to kill weaker mobs in a single hit. We are yet to see the bruiser in action, but its appearance is definitely daunting.
