The Warden awakens. It stalks players with enhanced senses.

• Darkness Pulse: Periodic darkness effect waves
• Boss bar color: Blue

Phase 2: The Fury (500 HP)

When Phase 1 health reaches 0, the Warden heals and enters Phase 2.

• Ground Pound: AoE slam with knockback
• Sculk Wave: Line of damage toward players
• Summon Minions: Spawns sculk silverfish
• All Phase 1 attacks with increased frequency
• Boss bar color: Yellow

Phase 3: The Rampage (500 HP)

The Warden becomes faster and more aggressive.

• Speed and attack buffs
• Boss bar color: Red

Phase 4: Sculk Storm (500 HP — Final)

The final stand. The Warden unleashes everything.

• Sculk Storm: Continuous particle rain with lightning
• Enraged Roar: Massive AoE damage + blindness
• Soul Drain: Pulls players + wither + warden heals
• Maximum stats, all attacks at highest frequency

• This is the only phase where the Warden can actually die!

Commands

Command	Description
/function sculk_wrath:config	Open configuration menu
/function sculk_wrath:load	Reload the datapack

Anti-Cheese Mechanics

• Mace + Density: Warden gains resistance when hit by mace with Density
• Burst Damage Protection: Single hits over 100 damage trigger resistance
• No Bedrock Trapping: Works underground naturally
• Auto-Cleanup: Pack automatically cleans up on reload

Compatibility

• Minecraft Version: 1.21+ (Java Edition)
• Multiplayer: Fully supported, scales with player count

Troubleshooting

Q: The boss bar doesn't appear? A: Make sure the warden was naturally spawned (via sculk shrieker). The pack auto-detects wardens.

Q: The pack broke after a crash? A: Simply /reload — the pack auto-cleans up on reload. No fix command needed!
