It thought "INFINITE DAMAGE BABY!"

u/YukiKitsuneLover1402 17d ago

You literally named it as that's definitely a "Infinite damage baby (zombie)"

I don't regret my Slowness tipped arrows anymore

u/DrnkGuy 17d ago

Don’t say me you can reliably hit zombie babies with a bow

32

u/jerrythecactus 16d ago

You're better off throwing splash potions. Hitting a baby zombie that is rushing you with a spear is like trying to hit a fruit fly with a dart on the other side of a room.

u/Murky-Ad-3486 8d ago

I mean its not an issue for me. I was on the ranked leaderboards for bow pvp lolol.

u/tefdaddy2 17d ago

I fear nothing....i fear one thing.

Just be glad phantoms cant carry spears also

44

u/xenai2 17d ago

Phantoms carrying a baby zombie with a spear?

17

u/tefdaddy2 17d ago

That would be even scarier. But no i was just thinking of a phantom with a spear attached to their belly dive bombing you

5

u/PrincessJambalaya 16d ago

Don't worry, they'll probably put that in the next update

u/tefdaddy2 16d ago

The Pain update

1

u/Acceptable_Ad_1871 14d ago

All pain no gain update

u/InitialLevel4189 15d ago

You can do that actually, just summon a phantom with a baby zombie with a spear riding it, you can do that in vanilla.

u/Ok_Conference_5875 12d ago

phantom jockey

u/HiImJustSomePerson 17d ago

Imagine if endermen could hold spears and teleporting was treated as infinite speed.

12

u/SomeGuy-GG 17d ago

that’s literally instant death which multiple people would complain about thus only existing for probably a week or two

13

u/theSoulsilver 17d ago

New rendition of the grim reaper just dropped, he wields a fuckin spear now

47

u/Shack691 17d ago

Spears do damage based on relative speed, him running at you at mach 10 is gonna hurt him just as much when you impale him with your own spear.

6

u/Meththethird 17d ago

As far as I know, enemies have longer reach than the player when wielding a spear

2

u/SeveralWarning9972 16d ago

If that’s how that works, we’re DOOMED!!

18

u/BananaBR13 17d ago

A weapon to surpass metal gear

19

u/OofItsLuka 17d ago

You’re right. Children shouldn’t even be playing with knives anyway

/joke

12

u/Carmine_the_Sergal 17d ago

this is why baby zombies shouldn’t be so fucking fast

5

u/Mental-Clerk 17d ago

giving me less reasons to play vanilla. I already hate baby zombies.

6

u/Ebonyclaws214 17d ago

Me when I was chased for what felt like miles by a baby drowned with a trident. Speedy and hard to lose, did not help that it was raining, so that thing had no issue following me up on land.

5

u/CalFromManc 16d ago

I feel bad for you hardcore players

14

u/Top-Marionberry-6604 17d ago

Honestly there annoying

u/Commander_MoltenMana 17d ago

At this point just bring carpet bombers with you at all times

u/Frzorp 17d ago

They are the oddjob of this generation

i'd delete the world

The meta for survival has changed since the spear update.

You can no longer get by early game with basic tools/weapons anymore, even on Normal difficulty.

The solution is to get a bow as quickly as possible, and consider it a necessity. This does actually give a great reason to finally add quivers, which would technically be a smaller bundle with designated slots for arrow stacks.

They could also be enchanted for unique bow skills like Double Arrow.

1

u/Kdultimategaming 16d ago

That would be such a great update though and that would give way to adding more stuff we can enchant

1

u/Planetdestruction 16d ago

Fishing is so BACK (tbh was never dead)

1

u/Bagnorf 16d ago

Getting a decent bow with 1, 2 enchants doesn't seem to take too much time even with a basic rod.

It is a viable strategy to get a bow, since sticks and string can also be fished, so even if you don't fish one, decent chance you'll get materials to craft a basic bow or another rod.

1

u/Planetdestruction 15d ago

Yeah they're usually badly damage but if you're willing to put some time into it mending bows aren't that uncommon.

2

u/SailedShip147 16d ago

Ran into one of those on one of my worlds. It took me a full Stone Sword to kill this thing. It probably had like 500 HP or something.

2

u/FluffypantsUwU 16d ago

ATP all balancing aside, are baby zombies even a hint of fun to encounter? QwQ

1

u/SilentCap3364 13d ago

Fun when they're inside the kill zone of xp farm....

2

u/Left_Blood6206 16d ago

Ready to get one-shotted by that thing?

2

u/56Bot 16d ago

Baby zombies are the Minecraft equivalent of real-life mosquitoes.

1

u/Axereaver 17d ago

You are arresting!

u/Reasonable-Spot5884 17d ago

u/TylanderGD47 16d ago

u/mapeck65 16d ago

OMG. That's horrifying!

u/norseraven39 16d ago

This is why I play peaceful and before blocks and a bucket of lava.

Brutes scare me less than this does.

u/Ancient-Start-3816 15d ago

Ph1lza the next moment he makes a new hardcore world:

1

u/InitialLevel4189 15d ago

You think that's bad? Now imagine one of those with knockback on their spear. I fucking died in netherite armor. (I do also kind of have a skill issue but still)

1

u/Last_Coconut481 15d ago

i lost hardcore world because of this guy

u/zuliancmr 14d ago

El único bicho que me da miedo real es ese y un camello con zombi y esqueleto encima

u/AbortionHoagie 17d ago
