All Bosses

Rules

• Kill every boss your version requires: the Ender Dragon and a Wither before 1.8, an Elder Guardian as well from 1.8, and a Warden too from 1.19
• Bosses must die by your actions; a boss that suffocates purely because of world generation doesn't count
• Kill the bosses in any order: time ends when the last one dies, or when the credits begin if the Ender Dragon is your last boss
• Random seed runs start on world load and set seed runs on your first input
• Show every kill: in the video, as Monsters Hunted progress in a tool or the advancements file, in the statistics menu, in subtitles or with world files
• Keep the default world settings apart from the world name, Survival or Hardcore and, on 1.16 and later, Easy, Normal or Hard; Peaceful may not be used

Route / Splits

1

Overworld Setup

Gather wood, food and iron gear. On 1.19 and later the route also has to reach the deep dark for a Warden.

2

Nether

Find a fortress for blaze rods and wither skeleton skulls, and a bastion or piglin trades for ender pearls.

3

Wither Skulls

Kill wither skeletons in a fortress. A Wither takes three of their skulls and four soul sand or soul soil, and a skull drops from 2.5% of your kills, plus 1% for each Looting level.

4

Ocean Monument

Find an ocean monument and kill one of its Elder Guardians.

5

Stronghold & End

Find the stronghold and kill the Ender Dragon. If it is your last boss, time stops when the credits begin.

6

Wither Fight

Summon the Wither and kill it. Trapping it is on the list of glitches allowed in glitchless runs.

Tips

• ▸Wither skeleton skulls are the biggest RNG bottleneck, and every Looting level adds 1% to the drop chance

• ▸Practice the Wither fight in a confined space to trap it and deal damage quickly
• ▸Plan your boss order based on what resources you find first
