Minecraft Dungeons features a number of enemies, known as Mobs in the Minecraft series, both from the original game, as well as a host of new threats summoned by the Arch-Illager. Learn about all the types of big and small baddies you'll be encountering on your adventure!

These mobs won't being doing much mobbing – instead, they tend to prefer standing around or running somewhere safer. However, you will receive loot for defeating them, as well as the Passive Aggressive trophy for slaying 50 of them, so it's best to put your sentimentality aside.
| Name | Attack Style | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Cow | - | Stands around mooing. |
| Key Golem | - | Melee it to pick it up. Once you get hit, it will escape and run back to its starting position. Can't be killed. |
| Piggy Bank | - | Runs away from the player. Attack it to get emeralds and usually a piece of equipment. |
| Sheep | - | Stands around baa-ing. |
These mobs are returning in full force from the original Minecraft. With a wider range of weapons at your disposal, you'll get more satisfaction than ever of making quick work of them. These mobs can be powerful, but are generally less threatening than Illagers.
| Name | Attack Style | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Baby Zombie | Melee | Runs up quickly in a group and swarms a target. |
| Chicken Jockey | Melee | A Baby Zombie on a Chicken. Moves up quickly to annoy the target. |
| Chicken Jockey Tower | Melee | A tower of Baby Zombies on top of a Chicken. When shot with a bow, the tower will tumble down, and the Baby Zombies will attack individually. |
| Creeper | Melee | Approaches the target, flickers, and explodes, dealing huge damage to the area. |
| Husk | Melee | Slow like the zombie, but with more health and dealing more damage. |
| Skeleton | Ranged | Fires arrows at the target. |
| Spider | Ranged | Launches webs which temporarily prevent the target from moving. |
| Zombie | Melee | Slow-moving enemy that approaches the target to attack. |
The direct command of the Arch-Illager, the Illagers are responsible for most of the Villagers' suffering throughout the areas of the game. These mobs have a wide range of special powers, so be sure to take out dangerous Illagers like the Enchanter and Geomancer first.
| Name | Attack Style | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Enchanter | Does not attack | Powers up nearby enemies into much stronger Enchanted forms. If it gets too far away or dies, the Enchanted enemies will return to normal. |
| Fanatic | Ranged | Upgraded version of the Pillager. |
| Geomancer | Does not attack | Creates stone pillars around targets to block them and wall them in. Some pillars will start to flash and explode after a few seconds, dealing huge damage. |
| Illager Chef | Melee | Attacks with a Spatula, but has low health and attack power. |
| Pillager | Ranged | Fires arrows at targets. Runs away when a player gets too close. |
| Royal Guard | Melee | Approaches holding a shield and swings quickly with a mace. High HP. |
| Vindicator | Melee | Rushes at the target with an axe and swings repeatedly. |
These enemies haven't appeared in Vanilla Minecraft, but don't belong directly to the Illager ranks. They're quite fearsome, so learn their attack patterns to take them down.
| Name | Attack Style | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Mooshroom | Melee | Walk slowly in hordes and approach to headbutt targets. |
| Necromancer | Ranged | Summons zombies and skeletons to attack targets, while also firing lightning bolts from a distance. |
| Wraith | Ranged | Summons fire beneath the player to deal damage. Teleports around to avoid attacks. |
These mobs only appear in special circumstances when summoned by a Boss. They can often be as threatening as the bosses themselves, so learn how to handle these pesky distractions from the main target.
| Name | Summoned by | Attack Style | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Conjured Slime | Corrupted Cauldron | Ranged | Spits small purple projectiles around the screen to damage targets, even from a long distance. The more there are, the more projectiles will fill the screen. |

| Skeleton Vanguard | Nameless One | Melee | Walk in a row with shields to block the first attack, while slashing ahead with blades. |
| Vex | Evoker | Melee | Flies quickly at the target and attacks with a knife. |
Certain enemies with a power exceeding the others will appear with a health bar at the top of the screen. To learn how to defeat each of these Boss enemies, from the mid-level bosses like the Evoker and Enderman, to the arrogant Arch-Illager, read our detailed guides below!
