A '''snow golem''' is a buildable [[Minecraft:passive mob]] that throws [[Minecraft:snowball]]s at monsters, which provokes them into attacking it. Depending on the [[Minecraft:biome temperature]], it also either produces a trail of [[Minecraft:snow]] or takes heat [[Minecraft:damage]] and dies.

Template:For Template:Infobox entity A snow golem is a buildable Minecraft:passive mob that throws Minecraft:snowballs at monsters, which provokes them into attacking it. Depending on the Minecraft:biome temperature, it also either produces a trail of Minecraft:snow or takes heat Minecraft:damage and dies.

Spawning

Template:See also Template:FakeImage Snow golems are created by stacking two Minecraft:snow blocks vertically, and then placing a Minecraft:carved pumpkin or Minecraft:jack o'lantern on top of the stack. The pumpkin may be placed by the Minecraft:player, a Minecraft:dispenser, or an Minecraft:enderman.<ref>Template:Reddit2</ref> Snow golems cannot be made by Minecraft:pistons. The building pattern also works when arranged sideways or upside-down, as long as the pumpkin is the last block placed.

The snow golem spawns at the location of the Minecraft:snow block as its feet when created horizontally.

Drops

Sheared

A snow golem drops 1 Minecraft:carved pumpkin when sheared.

File:Snow golem sheared.png
A snow golem after shearing the carved pumpkin from its head.

On death

Template:DropTable

Behavior

File:Snow golem attacking a witch.png
Snow golems search for the nearest monster and attack it.

Template:See also

File:A snow golem's range.png
Snow golem range.
Green: Fully in range.
Yellow: Mostly in range.
Orange: Mostly out of range.
Red: Fully out of range.

Snow golems wander aimlessly and try to avoid Minecraft:water, obstacles, and environmental hazards, but are immune to damage from Minecraft:powder snow. They are also immune to Minecraft:fall damage.

Snow golems take Template:Hp damage per tick when in contact with Minecraft:rain or water and in Minecraft:biomes with a temperature greater than 1.0. Examples include Minecraft:savannas,Template:Only Minecraft:badlands, Minecraft:deserts, and biomes in Minecraft:the Nether. The Minecraft:Fire Resistance Minecraft:effect allows them to survive in these biomes.

File:Snow Golem Stats.png
Snow golem biome statistics.

As a snow golem moves, it leaves a trail of Minecraft:snow on the ground if the blocks can support it<ref name="SnowGolemTrail">Template:Tweet</ref>. Template:IN, this happens in any biome. Template:IN, however, the snow trail is not generated in biomes with a high temperature value; examples include Minecraft:jungles, Minecraft:mushroom fields, Minecraft:savannas, Minecraft:stony peaks, Minecraft:deserts, Minecraft:badlands, and biomes in Minecraft:the Nether. If the mobGriefing Minecraft:game rule is false, the snow trail does not appear.

File:SnowGolemBehavior.png
A group of snow golems throwing snowballs at a spider.

Snow golems move toward all Minecraft:monsters (except Minecraft:ghasts and Minecraft:undead mounts) and throw Minecraft:snowballs at them up to 10 Minecraft:blocks away, provoking them, regardless of whether they attack the player.<ref>Template:Citation</ref> When captured, they throw snowballs up to 16 blocks away (in Euclidian distance). They throw one snowball per second. Thrown snowballs do not deal Minecraft:damage except to Minecraft:blazes, but they still knock back any mobs that they hit.

Additionally, snow golems also attack Minecraft:creepers. They never intentionally attack the player. Template:IN, if a snowball hits the player, it deals knockback and makes tamed Minecraft:wolves and trusting Minecraft:foxes attack the snow golem.

Template:IN, a snow golem's Minecraft:snowballs can also set other mobs on fire if the shot flies through a Minecraft:lava block or a block that is on fire.

A snow golem is not provoked by another Minecraft:golem (snow or iron) attacking it, although an Minecraft:iron golem that is hit accidentally by a snow golem's snowball attacks the snow golem.

A snow golem wears its Minecraft:carved pumpkin like a Minecraft:helmet. Its actual head is hidden beneath the pumpkin. Minecraft:Shearing a snow golem removes the pumpkin, revealing its derpy face and making it drop the pumpkin. The pumpkin is stored using the Pumpkin tag instead of ArmorItems; a snow golem does not display its HandItems or its ArmorItems. Template:IN, after shearing the pumpkin, the player can give a snow golem a new pumpkin only by using a command, such as Template:Cmd.
