Minecraft skeleton: where it spawns, how it attacks and what it drops
The skeleton is the classic undead archer and the main source of bones and arrows. In the Overworld it spawns at light level 0 on solid blocks, in groups of 4 in Java and 1 or 2 in Bedrock, in almost every biome except mushroom fields, the deep dark and trial chambers. In the Nether it appears in soul sand valleys and sometimes in fortresses, where it takes the place of a wither skeleton 20% of the time. A quarter of monster room spawners are skeleton spawners.
Depending on the biome a variant replaces it: the stray in snow, the parched in deserts, the bogged in swamps and the wither skeleton in fortresses. On top of that, a skeleton that spends 7 seconds in powder snow starts shaking and turns into a stray 15 seconds later.
It chases you from 16 blocks and shoots once it is within 15 and can see you: one arrow every 3 seconds on Easy and Normal, every 2 on Hard. Its aim also depends on difficulty. In Java it strafes in circles to dodge you and backs off if you get within 4 blocks. Its bow never breaks, it never runs out of arrows and the ones it fires cannot be picked up. Wearing a skeleton skull halves the distance at which it detects you.
It burns in sunlight like other undead. It gives 5 experience and sometimes drops its bow. And it has one classic use: if its arrow kills a creeper, the creeper drops a random music disc.
