New content in Minecraft 1.19 The Wild

Warden is deadlier than ever

The Warden is a powerful boss mob that spawns in Minecraft's Deep Dark biome. Mojang has been testing this mob for quite some time and it has gained a lot of power since then. A month ago, Mojang released some images for players to test the new Warden. In the old version, Warden didn't have a ranged attack so it was easier for the player to kill it.

However, in the official release, Warden will gain a ranged sonic attack that can pierce shields, enchant armor, and knock back. Warden can also shoot them quite quickly, making it impossible for the player to use all of their skills. Currently, Warden is a monster with an insanely high 500 HP, 15/30/45 melee damage, and 6/10/15 ranged damage (based on difficulty).

In general, it's best for players to avoid Warden because fighting its damaging ranged attack is too dangerous to do.

Frog mobs and their different forms

Frogs are the first amphibious mobs added to the game and as such, they are great for decorating the water in the player's base. People can get up to 3 frog variants, based on the biome's current temperature.

Players can create Froglights by feeding them magma blocks. Froglight comes in 3 variations: pearlescent (purple), verdant (green) and ochre (yellow). The color is based on the type of frog that eats the magma block. This block emits a light level of 15, the highest in the game.

The player can raise frogs with slimeballs to create frogspawn blocks that will turn into tadpoles after being placed in water for a while.

Deep Dark Biome

Deep Dark is a cave biome located deep underground in the Overworld. Its main structure, the Ancient City, is filled with loot and rare treasures. However, players need to be careful not to provoke the Sculk Shrieker and avoid the Warden.

Some rare items that can only be found in Deep Dark include:

1. Swift Sneak : a warm-up charm that increases movement speed when crouching.
2. New Disc '5 ': the new disc is divided into 9 pieces and the player needs to find all 9 to create it.
3. Echo Shards and Recovery Compass : Recovery Compass automatically points to the location of the deceased player, as long as they are in the same dimension.

Mangrove Swamp Biome

The new Mangrove Swamp biome is an improved version of the existing Swamp biome. This is home to exclusive mangroves, frog variations, muddy water and more.

They lay eggs in moist and warm areas, like the common Swamp biome. Mangroves are the main flora of this biome, with the ability to grow above water.
