Actually, the handedness of skeletons is backwards because someone at Mojang forgot to do their research. For bows, the dominant hand is typically the one pulling the arrow, meaning the skeleton in the video would be right handed. This same trivia makes 11% of skeletons right handed and the rest left handed, exactly the opposite of normal humans. In super technicality, the bow hand choice matches which eye is the dominant eye, which normally matches with the dominant hand pulling the string, but not always.

they will also attack hostile mobs, and any neutral mobs that attack players, resulting in knock back with no damage. The only mob that takes damage from snow golems are blazes (and maybe wolves, but i’m not sure about that). mobs that are hit by a snowball from a snow golem will attack the golem. provoked creepers will explode when hit by the golem. snow golems can be great for defense, if used correctly. But be aware that they will melt in warm biomes unless they’re given a fire protection potion! cool to see that people are still getting into the game after so many years! it’s a game with a many fun and quirky mechanics. i’ve been playing on/off for years and i still learn something new all the time!

The "left handed" skeleton you showed was actually right handed... In general, you use your dominant hand to draw the bow string. I suppose that means that most skeletons in minecraft are left handed. Awesome video though. These were great to learn about.

[@Uradamus]

They actually got the skeleton handedness wrong with that particular little easter egg. In archery you hold the bow with your off hand and draw the string with your dominant hand, so that the string is closer to your dominant eye. So when a skeleton is holding a bow with their left hand, that means they are right handed and left handed when they are holding it in their right hand. This mix up also means players are all also left handed archers, lol.

[@saturnine.]

[@terminalvelocityrunner2202]

Something you failed to explain about some mobs: The Zombie Siege that’s pretty important to note is they actually have some fairly distinct requirements to occur. They happen in any difficult EXCEPT PEACEFUL, only trigger at or past 12:00 in game (I think), and you or another player must be in the game’s village boundaries. These aren’t clearly defined in normal gameplay without cheats or tools, so just be sure the exit a number of blocks from any village you want to protect as soon as the sun sets if you don’t plan on sleeping. Likewise, another detail you kind of skewed was that zombies only break doors in hard mode. They’ll try in other difficulties but they won’t be able to unless you’ve got some kind of Addons or something running. Villagers will always leave their houses at dawn, even if the siege zombies aren’t all neutralized, meaning they’re still not necessarily safe then. Polar bears can spawn as or with a baby naturally (in bedrock, not sure about Java though), so there’s still a chance you’ll encounter them in even your own base’s proximity if the spawn conditions for the polar bear are met often enough. Be sure to spawn proof for the them in addition to any typical measures you would take if you live in a biome where polar bears can show up. One of the last things you’d want in hardcore is to walk outside of your fenced in snow fort to get food to heal, and immediately die to a polar bear. You also don’t need to kill a Fox if it steals an item from you. If a Fox is holding an item you want, like something you dropped on accident, drop a piece of food (like a meat) and crouch. The Fox AI prioritizes food items over inedible ones, and it will more than likely drop the already held item to pick up the bait instead. Just be sure to crouch and back away enough, or it probably won’t approach because wild foxes also retreat from any players who aren’t crouching. And while not a fact about a featured mob, it’s still worth keeping in mind that other passive mobs (notably livestock) will also eat your crops if they get into your fields. Rabbits aren’t the only ones you need to be careful of if you’re setting up a farm outside.

[@testerwulf3357]

Actually zombies can break doors down outside hard mode, from what remember it's very rare however..some zombies spawn with the ability to do so, but not all can (unlike hard more), the zombie siege may be able to spawn zombies with the ability to break doors. I think this feature is turned off for peaceful though. I watched a video once on all the special kinds of zombies that spawn which this was included! There was also a type of zombie that can call in backup.

Also a fact about strays; they drop slow tipped arrows. I have a stray farm on a Java server I play on and sell the arrows in my shop. I just made a normal skelly spawnwe farm, but add a snow block on a lever and when lots of skellys build up I flip the lever, wait for them to convert, and then, of course, kill them...

[@IamMortui]

Believe it or not while speaking of bows, that skeleton is actually right handed. Holding the bow with your left hand and pulling the string with your right hand is right handed. Reverse that and it would be left handed. Also considering steve (or the minecraft player) holds the bow natrually in the right hand and pulls the string with the left (assuming they do considering the bow stays on the right side) that'd also make them left handed. Minecraft is strange.

[@TheAralak720]

Awesome video but the skeleton show is right handed. Right handed archers hold the bow left and draw back with right

That skeleton was right-handed. The bow is in the left hand because your dominant hand does the draw. Which is the right hand. This also brings up that your character is left-dominant on the draw with a bow. But because the gamer is used to weapons on the right hand (right-hand dominant swords, guns, etc.) Most games keep the bow on the right-hand side even tho realistically you’d hold the bow with your off-hand to and draw with the dominant.
