The Boar

Design & Behavior The Boar is a bulky, neutral mob found in Taiga and Dark Forests. Larger than a regular pig, it features thick brown fur and prominent tusks. It ignores players unless provoked or if its piglets are threatened, defending itself with a swift, aggressive charge. Unique Mechanics & Functions Unlike common pigs, the Boar focuses on farming and utility combat: Destructive Charge: When attacking, it sprints in a straight line. Colliding with a player inflicts heavy knockback. If it hits leaves, tall grass, or crops, it breaks those blocks instantly. The Living Plow: Feeding it a Golden Carrot triggers a digging behavior. It turns dirt blocks into Farmland and unearths rare seeds, roots, and gold nuggets. Combat Mount: It can be steered directly using a standard saddle (no carrot-on-a-stick needed). Players can trigger a sprint to ram into and knock away smaller monsters. Drops Boar Tusk: Used in brewing to create the Potion of Charging, which grants the player increased speed and knockback power. Tough Hide: A new crafting material used to reinforce the durability of leather armor or customize shield designs.
