Reworking the Phantom

The Phantom, as it stands now, is one of, if not the most annoying mobs in the game. Many players despise this mob with a burning passion. This has led me to suggest a possible improvement for the Phantom. First of all, drastically lower the height Phantoms fly above you. Instead of having the Phantom stand somewhere that it's extremely hard to reach, even with a bow, perhaps have it fly only around 5 blocks above the player. This would allow the player to reach the Phantom much easier, making them much more manageable, while maintaining their main defense method of flying out of reach of players swords. My second proposal is to change the Phantom's attack. Perhaps reduce the damage they deal, while in turn letting them attack the player multiple times while they swoop down. This would still make them a challenging mob, yet also simultaneously allowing the player to hit them much easier, making them much less of a nuisance.

    ^ This, just make the dang mob not spawn on players for simply laying in a bed instead of "sleeping" in a bed. Makes servers PAINFUL.
