Was this a fluke?

[Darknesschaos]

So I tested if turtles would be asploded by the wither. Turns out that they don't get blown up. With MFFS and a little rednet I can foresee an interesting method of auto wither slaying. Was this known already?

 

[Golrith]

There's no stopping those turtles....

 

[Jess887cp]

I have no idea, but the future of turtle traps is coming if that's true.

 

[Everlast]

I checked just now, and the Wither easily grinds through the turtles to escape. Unless you had something else in mind.

 

[Hydra]

MFFS to kill withers is a rather well known trick. We had an auto-wither-farmer on our server. The turtle builds the wither from supplied materials, takes a step back, and let the forcefield kill the wither.

 

[Darknesschaos]

Odd, I wonder why the wither didn't grind up my turtles then...

If the wither can still see you (or anything else to kill) it will stay on the regular blocks.
If it can't see you, it will change to the blue death shots. Those blow up anything, including turtles (because they are blocks).

I guess I will have to set my trap up with sacrificial lambs. Probably literally. At least the initial explosion didn't remove the turtles.

Warded is the cheap answer to all your problems

 

[RedBoss]

The ceiling of the Nether is bedrock. Build a room there and place a sticky piston with one block on it so that you can lift the wither into the bedrock ceiling. Activate the wither and then the piston and he's trapped. Attack manually or with a turtle. No need for fancy blocks, MFFS, or anything.

I also watch JL2579

anyway, you can also search in the overworld for a + made out of bedrock but the middle of the + being air, place the soulsand + the middle skull, then above it a block and above the block a single warded block, remove the lower block, spawn him, and he will die.

Downside, Ult has a flat bedrock mod.

 

[natnif36]

Powercrystals' one?
I don't think that effects the twilight forest however?

delete half the end portal with a water bucket and use my trick in there

or go to the nether, and do the same but with warded and the bedrock above

or teleport a naga into a twilight labyrinth and get bedrock

 

[wolfsilver00]

Maybe i did something wrong (in fact, that could have been you xD you son of a bug) but my turtles got annihilated

 

[Darknesschaos]

I just tested again, it only seems to chew through them if there isnt a target for it to slice up, however it will break free of any non bedrock non mffs prison you give it.

 

[wolfsilver00]

That includes warded stuff?

If it has a target in sight, it will happily "phase" through warded blocks. In reality, it momentarily destroys them and moves within the block's hitbox allowing the wither to simply walk through it. Currently MFFS is the only thing that actively pushes the wither back into the containment field, afik.

Oh, thanks, now i can stop making warded stuff.

you can keep him inside if you use bedrock on his feet, but you need to not have flat bedrock installed and be lucky and find a cross made out of bedrock with air in the middle and trap him there with a warded block 4 blocks above
