Shield the portal path, deflect ghast fireballs and try for a ghast tear.
The ghasts have found your portal. They scream, they fire, they switch it off. Time to hit back.
- New skill Deflecting ghast fireballs
- Level 9 · Ultimate Survival
- Difficulty Advanced
- Mode Survival
- Time 30–45 min
- Ages 13+
What you’ll build
Map where ghasts attack your hub and build cobblestone shields with small windows along the open path. Then take on the ghasts: hit their fireballs back at them, score your deflects and shoot for a ghast tear.
Finish line: Your portal path is shielded, your ten deflects are scored and, with luck, you've won a ghast tear.
Bonus challenge: Got a ghast tear? Brew Regeneration: awkward potion + ghast tear. Then try to knock a ghast out with its own fireball.
You’ll need
- A bow and arrows
- Cobblestone
- Flint and steel
You choose
- My ghast defence squad's name
- Deflect with: sword, fist or arrow
- My bet: deflects out of 10
Stuck?
- Hit the fireball just before it reaches you. Swing too early and it keeps coming.
- Ghasts often hover over lava, so tears can be lost. Try to fight them over solid ground.
- A blast can switch off your portal. Relight it with flint and steel.
