The NEW Minecraft Mob: The Breeze
The Breeze is the latest monster added to Minecraft in the 1.21 snapshots, and it can be found inside the new trial chambers. It bears a resemblance to the blaze, but with its own unique abilities and features.
Unique Abilities
The Breeze has the ability to launch projectiles that have two interesting effects. Firstly, they exert a significant amount of knockback on the player. Secondly, when these projectiles explode, they can activate certain components, including redstone, such as trapdoors, levers, and buttons.
4 Mechanical Uses for the Breeze
The Breeze has inspired the creation of 4 mechanical uses, including a new mini-game. The first creation is the Breeze Cannon, which involves trapping multiple breezes in a composter and using their projectiles as a form of target practice. This can be utilized in mini-games or as a castle defense mechanism.
The second creation is the Useless Machine, a Minecraft version of a popular real-life concept. This mechanism uses the Breeze’s projectiles to turn itself off when activated, showcasing the potential for creative redstone contraptions.
The third creation is the Breeze Launcher, which involves redirecting the Breeze’s projectiles using water to build up a giant blob of projectiles in one spot. This can be activated to launch the player into the sky, making it a useful and reusable tool for various purposes.
Lastly, the Breeze has inspired the creation of a mini-game called Trapfall, where players stand on trapdoors and try to survive as long as possible while the Breezes shoot and flick the trapdoors open and closed. This mini-game adds an element of challenge and unpredictability for players.
Snapshot Bugs and Future Potential
While the Breeze and its projectiles are currently experiencing some bugs, such as the lack of collision detection when stationary, there is a lot of potential for these new features. The ability to manipulate the Breeze’s projectiles opens up a world of possibilities for redstone contraptions, mini-games, and creative builds.
As Minecraft continues to evolve, it’s likely that the Breeze and its unique abilities will be further explored and integrated into the game’s community-created content. The Breeze represents a new frontier of creativity and innovation within the Minecraft universe.
For those interested in experimenting with the Breeze mob and its features, a world download is available in the Discord community, providing an opportunity to explore and create with this exciting new addition to Minecraft.
