To all the Minecraft players in the class,I have a list of mobs and ways to combat them. If you have a more effective way of dealing with a certain mob, or I left out critical information, please leave a comment.

The first mob I will discuss is the zombie. The zombie is one of the more common mobs in Minecraft and I have found a simple way of killing them, having had many encounters with them. First lead them up a steep hill or cliff and then hit them off. That way they take damage from you and the fall.

The next mob on the list is the skeleton. In my opinion this is one of the most annoying mobs in the game. They sneak up on me and shoot me in the back! I have found that if you stay mobile they can’t shoot you as easily.

The next  mob is the  infamous creeper. If this mutated pig sees you it will charge at you and explode. To combat them just hit them than back away.

The next mob is the slime. This mob is probably the easiest mob to combat in the game. They will die if submerged because they can’t swim. I guess that this also applies to the magma slime, but I can’t be sure since I’ve never seen one.
