Run 5 test fights at 3 settings and find your boss's sweet spot.

- Time 60 min
- Ages 13+
What you’ll build
Name your boss with a name tag, then run test fights with three different kit settings, from strong gear to weak gear plus minions. Score every fight, work out each setting's win rate and crown the sweet spot.
Finish line: Your boss is scored across fifteen fights and three win rates, and tuned to the sweet spot.
Bonus challenge: With cheats on, toughen your boss: /effect @e[name=YourBoss] resistance 60 1. Re-test setting B. How much did the win rate drop?
You’ll need
- A name tag
- An anvil
- Swords and armour for each setting
- A parent or experienced player
You choose
- My boss mob and its name
- My 3 settings (gear, minions, cover)
- My target: the boss loses ___ fights out of 5
Stuck?
- Rename the name tag on an anvil first, then tap the boss with it. Named mobs never despawn.
- Change only one thing between settings, so you know what made the difference.
- Fights need Easy and Survival. Switch back to Peaceful when you're done.
