Witch Minecraft Mob
Minecraft MobA Witch is a ranged mob, added in the Pretty Scary Update. Witches are hostile and are found mostly in Swamp Biomes wandering around their houses . When a Witch notices the player they begin to viciously attack them with splash potions . Witches also have the ability to regenerate health. It fires splash potions of weakness, slowness, poison, and harming to weaken the player so it makes it easier to attack the player.
