Warden

Mobs

Warden — mob.

Summoning

The Warden is not part of the ordinary natural spawn table. A sculk shrieker summons it after warnings build up in the deep dark, and it emerges from the ground with a dedicated emergence animation.

Data: Summoning
SourceSculk shrieker
Biome contextDeep dark
Natural spawnNone
Dig cooldown1200 ticks

Drops

The Warden's Java 26.2 loot table has one guaranteed roll for a sculk catalyst. The drop is a block rather than an echo shard; echo shards belong to Ancient City loot, not the Warden entity table.

Data: Drops

Rolls1

Sounds

The Warden has dedicated heart, step, roar, attack and sonic-boom events. Listening for vibrations uses a tendril-click sound, while anger changes the calm and agitated voice variants.

Behavior

The Warden is associated with sculk, shriekers, and catalysts in the deep dark. A sculk shrieker is the environmental signal connected to its appearance, while the catalyst is the block recorded by the current entity loot table.
