Dodge the Charge Attack Below 250 Health

Identify the Attack Pattern

Once the Wither's health drops below 250, it begins charging strikes every twenty seconds. These powerful attacks deal massive damage and can catch you off guard if you're not prepared.

Predict and Evade

Watch for the boss to rear back or glow before charging. When you see this animation, sprint perpendicular to its direction—don't run directly away, as the charge will catch up. Use pillars, terrain, or distance to dodge the strike entirely.

Punish the Recovery

After the boss completes its charge, it has a brief window of vulnerability. This is your moment to deal heavy damage with melee attacks or arrows. Land as many hits as possible before it recovers and prepares the next charge.

Maintain Healing

Charge attacks hit hard. Keep your health topped up between attacks and always have an escape route planned. Don't get cornered against walls or your base structures.
