Mob Reference — Tribulation | Difficulty Overhaul for Minecraft

How to Read This Page

Each mob's stat line shows the time-axis gain per player level and its cap, per attribute. Health, damage, and speed are percentages of the mob's base stat (a zombie at +250% health has 3.5× its vanilla 20 HP); armor and toughness are flat points. Distance and height bonuses stack on top of health, damage, armor, and toughness, and global stat caps (health 4.0×, damage 4.5×) bound the total — see Features for the axis math.

Abilities unlock at the five tier thresholds — levels 50 / 100 / 150 / 200 / 250 by default — and stay with the mob for life: a mob's tier is frozen at spawn. Every ability has its own config toggle.

Follow range also scales for every listed mob (+1.0%/level, max +100%; +0.8%/level, max +80% for endermite, silverfish, and witch). Abilities that place or break blocks respect the mobGriefing gamerule.

Zombie Family

The four zombie-family mobs can also roll the Big (10%: +10 HP, +2 damage, 0.7× speed, 1.3× size) or Speed (10%: 1.3× speed, −10 HP) variant on top of normal scaling.

Tier 2 (lvl 100): trades its bow for a stone sword at spawn — a melee skirmisher instead of an archer

The fastest speed scaling in the roster

Tier 5 (lvl 250): 25% chance to spawn charged, exactly as if struck by lightning

Beyond the List

Modded Hostile Mobs

Any modded mob extending Monster automatically gets the conservative fallback: zombie-equivalent health (+1.0%/lvl, max +250%) and damage (+1.5%/lvl, max +375%) only — no speed, armor, or AI changes, so the mod author's tuning is respected. Exclude namespaces or override individual entities in config.

Bosses

The Ender Dragon, Wither, and anything tagged c:bosses use a separate, gentler formula: health and damage only, time and distance axes only (no height), capped at +300% total. No tier abilities — a boss fight stays a boss fight, just one that grows with you.
