Snow Man Mob – Wiki Guide
This Minecraft tutorial explains all about a snow man (also called a snow golem) with screenshots and step-by-step instructions. Let’s learn about a snow man in Minecraft.
Background
The following is a picture of what a snow man (or snow golem) looks like in Minecraft:
| Hostility Level | Passive Mob |
|---|---|
| Health Points | 4 health points x 2 |
| Where to Find | Does not spawn naturally (must be built or summoned with a command) |
| Weapon |  Snowball |
| Attack Method | Shoots snowballs |
| Drops | 1-10 Snowballs |
| Experience Points | 0 experience points |
Hostility Level (Passive)
A snow man is a passive mob. The term mob is short for mobile and is used to refer to all living, moving creatures in the game such as chickens, creepers, and snow men. Because a snow man is a passive mob, it will never attack you in the game (Creative or Survival mode).
Health Points
In Minecraft, a snow man has 2 hearts for health. This gives a snow man 4 health points (because 1 heart = 2 health points). To kill a snow man, you need to inflict 4 points of damage to the snow man.
Where to Find a Snow Man
In Minecraft, a snow man does not spawn naturally in the game. You can build a snow man or summon a snow man using a cheat.
Weapon
The snow man is armed with snowballs.
Attack Method
You are safe to walk near a snow man and it will not attack or cause you any damage. And if you attack a snow man, it will just stand there. It will not attack you back.
Drops
When you kill a snow man in Minecraft, it will drop snowballs.
Make sure you pick up the dropped items before they disappear. These are useful and should be kept in your inventory to be used later.
Experience Points
As you play the game, you will gain experience. The most common way to gain experience is by killing mobs. When a mob is killed you will see tiny green and yellow balls appear and move towards you.
These orbs represent experience points. Unfortunately, when you kill a snow man, you will not gain any experience points.
