I've been looking around a swamp and an ocean, with no luck. What biomes can/can't they spawn in? Do other EMC mobs have biome limits?
I'm roughly 99.99% certain they aren't spawning in swamps, at the very least. Pretty sure about oceans...
xD Let me be more specific. When I say, "I've been looking," I mean, "I've been using a 130x130 spawn area to kill thousands and thousands of enraged mobs." None of them were creepers. The dark room is almost entirely in a swamp, but I think it touches on ocean, just barely.
Anywhere that a creeper would normally spawn. Their coding is that every natural spawn of a creeper has a chance of being an enraged creeper instead.
Really? I thought that they only spawned in desert biomes. I believe aikar said that somewhere. That is the only place I find them too. Except for the mob arena biome
Not True. My (second) Enraged Farm is in a swamp biome, where Enraged Creepers do not spawn, I did this for that reason, I dont want those damned creatures blowing up my farms lol. I believe they only spawn in Deserts and River Biomes? And possibly savannahs Possibly in forests too, but Never has one spawned in my swamp. I get Tons of regular creepers, but None of them are enraged.
I think they might be a much rarer occurrence then other enraged mobs I have only ever seen about 3 of them outside of the arena. Saw 1 spawn on a cobblestone path over an ocean while I was hunting squid and 2 others in in regular oak forest biomes.
I think they spawn in desert, savanna, beach, and maybe one other. Might be so that their explosions don't damage much natural land?
I think someone suggested in Mumble the list of biomes they don't spawn in is the shorter list, but I've had awful luck. I guess I'll just go with somewhere I've seen one myself to be on the safe side. Thanks guys.
I've already killed at least 2 Enraged Creepers in a swamp :/ I got most of them on plains but even so it is rare to find one.
they do not spawn in swamps. They may have spawned in a river biome that goes through a swamp, or a neighboring biome, but it did not spawn in the swamp.
It only spawns in Beach, desert, plains, desert hills. @Override protected boolean canSpawn(Location loc) { if (loc.getWorld().getEnvironment() != World.Environment.NORMAL) { return false; } switch (loc.getBlock().getBiome()) { case BEACH: case DESERT: case PLAINS: case DESERT_HILLS: return true; default: return false; } }
