If a player or a [[Minecraft:mob]] is holding a totem of undying in the off-hand or main hand slot and receives otherwise fatal damage, the totem prevents their death. The totem of undying must be held in the user's hand for it to work — it does not work if it is in the hotbar, unless selected. Totems of undying prevent a game over in Hardcore mode in the same way they prevent a death in Easy, Normal, and Hard mode.

A totem can be used only once, and disappears when the effect is activated. It does not prevent death caused by void damage or the {{cmd|kill}} command. {{IN|java}}, it also does not prevent death caused by an arrow of harming if the arrow kills the holder with just the [[Minecraft:arrow]]'s physical damage, as the arrow's Instant Damage effect is applied after the totem has activated, effectively killing the player a second time. <ref>{{bug|MC-206307||Arrow of Harming bypasses Totem of Undying}}</ref>

When activated, multiple green and yellow particles are displayed around the player that held the totem. A screen effect also plays, showing the totem hovering in front of the player's screen, similar to the animation seen when a player receives the Raid Omen effect or the Hero of the Village effect {{in|bedrock}}, or enters the same area as an elder guardian.

Any [[Minecraft:mob]] that can hold a totem of undying (in a hand or in the mouth) is revived if killed while it is holding the totem. The totem functions exactly as it does with players, although undead mobs are not affected by the Regeneration effect.

Template:Hatnote

"Undying" redirects here. Not to be confused with Minecraft:Undead.

Template:Infobox item A totem of undying is an item that can prevent players or mobs from dying when they take fatal damage. It is dropped by evokers, which spawn in woodland mansions and raids.

Obtaining

Mob loot

Evokers always drop one totem of undying upon death, which is not affected by Looting. Template:Drop sources

Usage

The totem animation in Java Edition.
Animation of the totem activating in Template:Editions.
The totem animation in Bedrock Edition.
Animation of the totem activating in Template:Editions.

If a player or a Minecraft:mob is holding a totem of undying in the off-hand or main hand slot and receives otherwise fatal damage, the totem prevents their death. The totem of undying must be held in the user's hand for it to work — it does not work if it is in the hotbar, unless selected. Totems of undying prevent a game over in Hardcore mode in the same way they prevent a death in Easy, Normal, and Hard mode.

A totem can be used only once, and disappears when the effect is activated. It does not prevent death caused by void damage or the

  1. REDIRECT Template:Command

Template:Redr command. in Template:Editions, it also does not prevent death caused by an arrow of harming if the arrow kills the holder with just the Minecraft:arrow's physical damage, as the arrow's Instant Damage effect is applied after the totem has activated, effectively killing the player a second time. <ref>Template:Bug</ref>

When a totem of undying is activated, it restores Template:Hp, removes all existing status effects and grants several positive status effects:

When activated, multiple green and yellow particles are displayed around the player that held the totem. A screen effect also plays, showing the totem hovering in front of the player's screen, similar to the animation seen when a player receives the Raid Omen effect or the Hero of the Village effect in Template:Editions, or enters the same area as an elder guardian.

Any Minecraft:mob that can hold a totem of undying (in a hand or in the mouth) is revived if killed while it is holding the totem. The totem functions exactly as it does with players, although undead mobs are not affected by the Regeneration effect.
