    personally i like the way it works, the battle is more challenging and beacons worth it, if you have troubles at this fight just put game in easy-mode i guess?

    I agree the wither fight is way to hard on bedrock.

    In my opinion, the bedrock wither is better than the java one because it's more challenging and makes beacons worth more than they are now.

    The Bedrock wither is more difficult, in the most naive and boring form of difficulty. It has double health, regenerates faster, and has extremely erratic movement and attacks.

    This results in a fight that is not a test of skill or strategy, but merely a boring endurance test and equipment check. Do you have really good armor and weapons and basic competence? Then you can grind out the unengaging fight over the course of five minutes.

    Sure, the Java wither has its problems (like the bedrock ceiling cheese), but it at least fills its role better. It can be managed by approaching the fight creatively, and doesn't grind you out with an unnecessarily long HP bar. You have a chance to use your surroundings to your advantage, and dodge its attacks.

    More "difficult" does not mean better boss design.

    I personally think that the Bedrock wither is closer to what it should be than the Java wither. Java withers are too easy and Bedrock withers are too hard for the wrong reason. I love how the Bedrock wither is more unpredictable, it has more dangerous attacks like a body charge and more large blue head projectiles, I don't even mind the regen but double the health can feel a bit ridiculous. I suggest that all withers on Java and Bedrock have the Bedrock wither attacking mechanics/attacks, but 1.5 times the health of Java withers currently. So, all withers would have health that is in between current Java and Bedrock wither health.

    It has twice the health super unfair and the either can beat the warden in bedrock
