Sometimes, when the endless battles with zombies and skeletons become tiresome, it’s nice to take a break from fighting and peacefully explore the world of Minecraft Pocket Edition. The mod called Friendlies can assist you by removing aggression from mobs, turning most previously hostile creatures into neutral ones. Imagine stepping out of your house at night and strolling through a crowd of creepers and zombies without engaging in combat.
What are the benefits?
Picture this: you launch your favorite game, Minecraft PE, grab your pickaxe, and head down into a mine to search for diamonds and other valuable ores! But then, a zombie appears in the cave and pushes you into lava… Not pleasant, right? To avoid such situations, I recommend installing the Friendlies mod, which alters the behavior of many mobs in MCPE. Here’s what exploring the mines looks like after installing the mod:
Interestingly, you no longer need to sleep since it would be a waste of time! Hostile mobs are now completely non-threatening:
However, don’t get too complacent; the only real danger is yourself. If you accidentally hit a formerly hostile mob, you’ll find yourself in trouble..
Here’s a list of mobs in MCPE that will not attack players first:
- Blaze
- Cave Spider
- Creeper (No longer explodes!)
- Enderman
- Ghast
- Elder Guardian
- Guardian
- Magma Cube
- Silverfish
- Slime
- Spider
- Witch
- Wither Skeleton
- Zombified Piglin
- Villager Zombie
- Zombie
