Placing a half-slab between yourself and an exploding creeper negates almost all of the damage. Needs investigation for why it happens exactly and if it can be fixed.

As far as I am aware, the explosion code runs a very simplistic line of sight check when going off, and even though slabs only take up a partial block, this is not accounted for in the damage calculation. Making only full blocks count for blocking line of sight would likely be an easy solution to this, but I would need to look into it more.

Tall grass also blocks almost all creeper damage.
