Minecraft elder guardian: mining fatigue and how to beat it
The elder guardian is the large version of the guardian and the biggest, strongest aquatic mob in the game. There are only three per ocean monument, one in the top room and one in each wing, and they generate with the structure. They never respawn, so once you kill them the monument is clear of them for good.
Its most annoying weapon is Mining Fatigue. In Java, every 60 seconds it gives Mining Fatigue III to every survival-mode player within 50 blocks, through blocks and even if you are invisible. You see a ghostly image of the guardian and hear a bell-like sound. For 5 minutes you attack 30% slower and mine far slower still, which is why it pays to kill all three before trying to take the monument apart.
It also fires a laser that takes 3 seconds to charge. While it shifts from purple to yellow you can move away, but once charged it cannot be dodged and reaches about 14 blocks. Solid blocks, leaving its range or raising a shield cut it off. And when its spikes are out, every hit you land on it deals damage back to you, just like Thorns.
Unlike the regular guardian, it does not swim away when you chase it. On death it gives 10 experience and drops a wet sponge, so you can always get at least three sponges from a monument even if it has no sponge room.
