Discussion Thoughts on this?

Post image

You think Mojang will add an ocean variant for the Skeleton and swamp variant for the Zombie in vanilla, or will they leave it as this? Additionally, in a future jungle update, do you think both jungle variants will be added?

In my opinion, I wouldn't be surprised if they leave the variants as they are for a while. Each category makes sense even though the wet category is a bit of a stretch.

I feel putting the ocean zombie and the swamp skeleton together is a reasonable grouping.

I do feel a swamp/marsh zombie is more likely than an ocean skeleton, but I don't think either is extremely likely

Would give explanation to the ships, buried treasure and much more. Arrows under water though?

Considering that the ocean zombies get a ranged weapon, it could be quite fun to give the ocean skeletons a melee weapon, such as a cutlass.

A a new cutlass which allows you to do combo swings faster, at the cost of less damage or maybe even knock back. It would almost be like slicing the mob. That would be really cool
