Dungeon Mob Suggestions - Post Here!
« on: January 07, 2017, 09:25:52 PM »
Thread created by Death

I have created this thread due to the fact that i am currently needing more suggestions for custom mobs and their skills.

As i am going through the process of creating new custom mobs for the re-configured dungeons, i usually get ideas for different skills which ultimately leads to a whole new custom mob or boss! However, i would like to get ideas from the community as well about certain things you all think would be cool to see a new mob or boss have, specifically their skills.

Keep in mind the custom mobs must be within the realm of possibility and within a reasonable level of complexity (cannot have 100 abilities and adds).

With all of that being said, there is quite a bit of options available for mob skills (which i will go ahead and list) to give you an idea of just some of the things that are possible with custom mobs!

Also, please try to be creative about your suggestions. Don't just suggest something like a spider that shoots a fireball or something...which actually would be pretty cool for a minion that is spawned by a boss! Be creative with your suggestions, you want super cool mobs after all...don't you? :D


Perhaps even something like this:
Quote from: Random Player
I would very much like to see a wither skeleton necromancer that has the following attributes:

- Low Health
- Leather armor (dyed black)
- Immune to Poison/Wither/Knockback
- Average DPS
- Chance to summon wither skeleton minions that only live for a few seconds.
- Consume nearby wither skeleton minions within a radius dealing damage to them to siphon health to boss.
- Drops above average gear with a small chance to drop an epic diamond sword with OP enchants.

You get the idea...  :D



Don't let the following information in the Spoilers below scare you from making suggestions. The information is simply there to help you with your suggestions. I will take on all the difficulty involved in creating the mobs (unless you want to help script them?? :P).

heightabove / heightbelow [number]
Execute the skill if the mob is above or below a particular height.

Im so happy this post is here! :D
So I have quite a few Ideas for Dungeon Mobs.
I will be putting all of my Ideas in list form since I find its the easiest way to put all ideas down.

Have Mob Boss be able to-
*Multiply into actual fighting targets.
*Multiply into Mirror Images
*Be able to copy skins as death mentioned to me earlier today. (His Idea)
*Be able to summon different for help. (maybe as like last stand)
*Be able to deflect attacks.
*Be able to freeze players (maybe making them invulnerable to attack while frozen)
*Be able to counter attacks.
*Be able to surprise attack.
*Be able to maybe summon gravel or sand on top of players so it falls on them.
*Be able to open holes underneath player like txt or creepers do without causing damage.
*Be able to spit potions.
*Be able to summon fireballs toward ground like rain.

Have environment be able to-
*Shift up and down
*Open Lava pits at random locations
*Freeze and thaw over water periodically.
*Trap people in glass boxes. (so they can watch their teammates suffer >:D lol)
*Minecart chase boss when hurt.



Thats about all I have right now but will let you know if I have some more Ideas haha.

The boss could
-Call down an alien beam to take you up into the sky (Guardian beam with levitation)
-Put you in a puzzle room at certain increments of health
-Summon fake mobs that don't do anything but get in your way and then disappear
-Play the ghast sound to annoy you
-Detect for at least 3 people fighting and make one of the players choose one to kill (This is just cruel)
-You could make all the fighters fight each other
-Make it rain falling anvils
-Scramble your inventory (Including armor)
-Empty your inventory into a chest or onto the ground (Including armor)
-Make you do parkour (I don't know why I suggested this)
-Send out projectiles that half your health (Ignore armor)



I also have boss minion type ideas
-Elemental creepers (Set you on fire, trap you in a rock, shock you with lightning, etc)
-A tower of baby zombies where you can only damage the bottom one and the higher up you get the more powerful they are
-Bats that explode into potions
-Mobs disguised as other mobs



I wish I could help script but sorry :-\
