Blue’s Better Witches Resource Pack FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need a mod or is this just a resource pack?
This is a resource pack only—it changes textures and animations but doesn't add new mechanics. You can use it with any vanilla Minecraft world or modded world without installing anything extra.
Why do the witches look so different?
The pack replaces the tall witch model with a shorter, cuter dwarf version and adds a small cat sitting on her shoulder. This is purely visual and doesn't change how witches behave in combat or potion-drinking.
What happens when I kill a witch with this pack?
Instead of the witch falling over normally, she pulls out a magic broomstick and flies away into the sky. This is a custom animation that plays when the witch is defeated.
Does the cat do anything or is it just decoration?
The cat is purely decorative—it sits on the witch's shoulder as a visual feature and doesn't affect gameplay or witch behavior.
Will this pack work with my other resource packs?
This pack may conflict with other packs that modify witch textures or animations. Load this pack last in your resource pack list to ensure its features take priority.
Can I use this on a multiplayer server?
Yes, resource packs are client-side only, so you can use this on any server without needing admin permission or affecting other players.
Do the dwarf witches have different health or damage?
No, the pack only changes appearance and animations—witches have the same health, damage, and potion-drinking behavior as vanilla witches.
Why aren't the witches showing the new animations?
Make sure the resource pack is enabled and ranked above any conflicting packs in your resource pack menu. Also check that you're using a compatible Minecraft version.
Can I see the broomstick animation if I don't kill the witch?
No, the broomstick escape animation only triggers when the witch is defeated. You'll see it every time a dwarf witch dies in your world.
Does this pack affect witch huts or witch spawning?
The pack only changes how witches look and animate—it doesn't change where they spawn, how often they appear, or anything about witch huts.
