Strider - description

Strider is a passive mob who lives in Nether.

These mobs have their own baby variant.

Occurrence

Striders only appear in Nether, near lava reservoirs.

Striders - materials

By killing Strider, you can get:

1. Leads;
2. Saddle - if the mob was saddled;
3. Experience.

Behavior

1. Striders' natural habitat is lava. They move very fast on it. They don't receive any points of damage when in lava;
2. If they walk in another area they turn purple and start shaking;
3. Striders can walk on other mobs;
4. If a Strider falls into the water or stands in the rain it will begin to receive damage.

Riding on Striders

Riding on a Strider is like riding a pig. You need:

1. Saddle;
2. Warped fungus on a stick.

If you don't want to ride a Strider, but you want him to accompany you, put a leash on him, and take the warped fungus in your hand.

Reproduction

Striders can be multiplied using warped fungi.
