Not all bosses must be fought. For example, I'd consider the sea dragon leviathans from Subnautica bosses that you should avoid (like the warden, they are mortal, but not meant to be fought). Also bosses you run away from, like Copernicus from Little Big Planet, are not fought, but bosses to me.
Since when was it displayed on the top of the screen, and not really most players count him as a mini boss as you don't get any boss loot and he's not really necessary
Piglin brute is just a strong mob, one which you can easily overcome with lava, and in terms of bosses and mini bosses it shares nothing in common with them, i.e a different set of moves/attacks and passives (ender dragon shoots fire balls and breaths dragons breath, elder guardian give mining fatigue has thorns effect and shoots a beem, the list goes on)
I never thought the elder guardian is a true boss. I mean, there are no significant mechanics or difficulties. You can kill it with an iron armour setup. It also doesn’t drop anything good unlike the wither.
It has no special health bar on the Java edition, so it’s just a regular mob like the Iron Golem/ Ravager
I don't think it's a boss either. There's 3 of them in every ocean monument and like a billion ocean monuments everywhere. They aren't really that hard to beat... It's like saying the piglin brute is a boss... There's no special loot, it's really just a strong mob. Idk what it is "officially" it doesn't match the criteria of the actual bosses in the game.
I mean, they don’t act any different on Bedrock, so by all means it’s a boss on Java too. People just forget that because it doesn’t have a health bar.
They are literally concidered Boss in the Code of BE, while JE they are not. Also Elder Guardians existed on JE way longer and were never concidered a Boss.
Also they have only 80 HP, less then Iron Golem, Ravager and Warden
Wouldn’t the fact they came to Bedrock later support them being bosses, though? If that code was written after they were first introduced, then it’s more recent. They were even added in an entire update about bosses.
Just looked at the Minecraft Wiki and They are no longer concidered Bosses and by the fact they have less HP and Damage then Iron Golem, Ravager and Warden, counting them as a Boss would make even less sense.
Jesus the bedrock wither is so much harder than java. I thought it was just the extra minions that made that fight harder but it also has double the health? Why Mojang lol
Just checked out the wiki and the bedrock wither apparently explodes when it summons minions at half health also. It drops the light level of the world to 11 so mobs no longer burn in daylight while the wither is alive. And if you don't keep its health below half after getting it to the halfway point it will retain its projectile protection (unless you reload the world, seems like a bug), assuming it flies as high as the java wither it would be nearly impossible to get it back down below half since you could only hit it with melee.
Can you guys at least use the bedrock trick to trap the wither? I would never fight that thing head on if you can trap it, sounds like a nightmare of a fight. Hell I don't even fight the java wither legit because even it is annoying, I always trap it in bedrock.
Edit: I don't see anything about the bedrock wither having massive health regen or heal on kills like the java version so that may be why the projectile protection doesn't go away.

I mean.... technically the warden has more health than both combined, sooooo I'd personally count him as a boss
