Minecraft version 2.94 Patch Notes

Bug Fixes – August 15, 2024

Improved reliability of connecting to Realms
Addressed various issues where players are facing realms service connection errors and long load times.

The following changes were added previously.

Vanilla Parity:

Mobs:

Tamed Wolves now have increased health, matching Java Edition.
Instead of halving damage dealt to tamed Wolves by entities other than Players or Arrows, their maximum health has been increased from 20 to 40.
Pre-existing tamed Wolves will need to be fed to reach the new maximum health.
To maintain consistent healing rates, the health restored by feeding Wolves has been doubled.
Java Edition will be updated to match the new Bedrock Edition implementation.

Experimental Features:

Wind Charge:

Introducing Wind Charge, allowing players to become the Breeze.
Using a Wind Charge fires off a Wind Charge projectile similar to the Breeze’s.
A Wind Charge fired by a player grants 10% more knockback than a Breeze’s.
Wind Charges fired by the player also deal damage if they hit an entity directly.
The Breeze drops between 4-6 Wind Charges when killed.
Wind Charges have a max stack size of 64.
There is a half-second cooldown after each use.
Wind Charges can be fired from a dispenser.
Players launched by a Wind Charge only accumulate fall damage below the y-level of where they collided with the wind burst.

Bogged:

Introducing Bogged, a new variant of Skeletons that shoot poisonous arrows.
Bogged Skeletons have 16 health instead of 20.
They attack at a slower interval of 3.5 seconds instead of 2 seconds.
Players have a chance to receive Arrows of Poison when killing Bogged Skeletons.
These mossy and mushroom-covered Skeletons spawn naturally in Swamps and Mangrove Swamps.
They can also be found spawning from Trial Spawners in some Trial Chambers.

Vault:

Vault is a new block that holds locked treasure and loot.
Found throughout Trial Chambers, containing the structures’ most valuable loot.
Vaults in Trial Chambers require a Trial Key to unlock.
Can be unlocked by an unlimited number of players.
Once a player unlocks a Vault, they cannot unlock it again.
If a player has not unlocked a Vault before, an orange stream of particles will flow from the player to the Vault when nearby.
The keyhole of the Vault will be open or closed depending on the players nearby.
Rewards from the Vault are randomized from its loot table each time it is unlocked.
Vaults cannot be crafted or obtained in Survival mode and do not drop anything when mined.
Explosion-resistant and cannot be moved.

Wolf:

The collars of tamed Wolves have been increased in size, making them visible not only from the front but also from other angles.
