The Warden Isn't Fun

The Warden is not fun. 

Here are a few reasons off the top of my head:

1) Want to play Minecraft with anyone under 12 years of age? Good luck not playing on creative or peaceful. Either you avoid a huge portion of the game or your little buddy ends up in tears. So you're not even playing the game. Very fun. 

2) Encountered multiple occasions where it was impossible not to spawn the Warden. All you "sneak better" people can shove it because avoiding it becomes impossible.

*A novel solution would be not allowing a Sculk Shrieker to spawn within triggering distance of another Sculk Shrieker.

3) Preparation does not help. The Warden practically ignores armor and the ranged attack goes through blocks so you better bring some Totems of Undying (the lamest item in the game).

4) The Warden can also smell you for whatever reason. This makes it being blind and triggered by sounds completely irrelevant. 

 

How this makes me feel:

This mob makes me want to stop playing Minecraft after 13 years and many purchases. 

I didn't buy Minecraft to play some horror game modder fanatic's fantasy even if they are employed by Mojang.

    There are multiple errors here. For one thing, I have played Minecraft with kids under 12, one of them summoned a warden, and nobody even came close to crying.

    Second, I've found sneaking works fine. If it is impossible not to spawn a warden, it means you're not sneaking.

    Third, when the warden smells you, it will only try to make melee attacks, and wardens are fairly slow.

    Finally, I will point out that wool prevents the warden from hearing you and blocks sculk vibrations in general. Hopefully you can take this advice and continue enjoying Minecraft.

    The warden is an end game boss. If you don’t like it here’s my solution: DON’T GO TO THE ANCIENT COTY! How hard is that? Didn’t think so. I definitely think sculk shriekers shouldn’t spawn next to each other but removing wardens? Just don’t go to the places where wardens are simple fix
