Wither Skeleton

Overview

Entity ID: witherSkeleton Internal ID: Dynamically assigned via EntityRegistry.findGlobalUniqueEntityId() Egg Colors: Primary 0x00003D (dark blue), Secondary 0x751947 (dark pink/magenta)

EntityWitherSkeleton is a Wither Skeleton variant mob added by EnderIO. It extends EntitySkeleton and is converted from a standard EntitySkeleton at spawn time when the skeleton type is 1 (Wither Skeleton).

Spawning

Wither Skeletons are not spawned separately — they are converted from regular Skeletons at world spawn time via SkeletonHandler. The conversion happens in two events:

1. LivingSpawnEvent — When a living entity spawns, if it is a EntitySkeleton with getSkeletonType() == 1, the original entity is set dead and replaced with an EntityWitherSkeleton.
2. EntityJoinWorldEvent — As a fallback to catch any that slipped through, the same conversion is applied.

Registration is done via SkeletonHandler.registerSkeleton(mod) which registers the entity globally and to the mod entity tracking system with tracking range of 64 blocks and update frequency of 3.

Attributes

Equipment

• Weapon: Stone Sword (set in onSpawnWithEgg)
• Armor: Standard skeleton armor drops
• Pumpkin (October 31st): 10% chance for lit pumpkin, 15% chance for regular pumpkin if date is October 31st

Loot Table

Skull Drop (Beheading)

When killed by a player with a Tinkers’ Construct Cleaver:

• Drop: Wither Skeleton Skull (Items.skull damage 1)
• Chance: beheading × 10% per level (capped at 100%)
• Beheading bonus: +2 from holding a Cleaver

Necrotic Bones

When killed by any living entity with Looting:

• Drop: Necrotic Bone (TConstruct materials item, damage 8)
• Chance: 1 / (1 - lootingLevel) per level — so level 1 = 50%, level 2 = 33%, level 3 = 25%

AI / Behavior

Inherits all AI from EntitySkeleton. Key behavioral differences from vanilla Wither Skeleton:

• Uses a Stone Sword instead of a Stone Sword (vanilla also uses stone sword for Wither Skeletons in newer versions)
• Same Wither Shield effect as vanilla (immune to arrows, takes reduced damage from swords)
• No Wither Boss behavior — this is a standard hostile mob, not the Wither boss

Notes

• The entity is immune to fire (setFire override does nothing)
• This entity coexists with the vanilla Wither Skeleton; Minecraft’s EntitySkeleton already handles skeleton type 1 as Wither Skeletons natively. This class primarily adds the Tinkers’ Construct integration (beheading, necrotic bones).
