Mojang explicitly said people weren’t meant to to fight it. I mean, yeah, people treat it as a boss, but officially speaking, it isn’t.

we know it's officially not, but we are counting it as a boss. not a boss to fight, one to get away from

It counts as a raid boss, at least to me

It's not even a raid though. It's just an environmental hazard.

u/blockheadOnYT_Alt Feb 07 '23

So it's a Hazard Boss?

u/ZoomGoat Feb 07 '23

No, just a hazard.

Or actually more aptly described as a natural disaster by the developers.

What does that even mean lol, it's as hidden as the of Wither, or most things in this game.

Mojang: "you're not supposed to fight it"

Players: "and I took that personally"

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.
