A snareling is a hostile enderling that can be found within the Echoing Void DLC of Minecraft Dungeons.

Lore

There were many different subspecies of endermen that resided within the End, and it did not take the Heroes long to meet them. These subspecies were collectively known as enderlings. Snarelings were accounted as being especially dangerous enderlings due to their arachnid affiliation. Upon encountering a hero, they would not hesitate to attempt to catch them within their snareling goop. Once their prey was caught, they summoned their companions before immediately teleporting over to binge strike their prey. The Heroes eventually prevailed against them, making their way to the Broken Citadel, where they put a final end to the Orb of Dominance once and for all.^[1]

Behavior

Snarelings behave like an End counterpart to spiders. They have the lowest health of all enderlings, and their attacks do repeated damage. Snarelings have four behaviors:

Novelty

Snarelings stand on their long arms and swing their short legs back and forth.

Teleport

Snarelings can teleport away when the hero comes too close if they are not caught in one of their snares.

Ranged Goop Attack

Snarelings can shoot snareling goop across a distance to ensnare a target, sticking them in place for a few seconds and inflicting slowness upon them.

Melee attack

When a hero is trapped within snareling goop, all nearby snarelings will teleport around them and repeatedly attack them with their arms until the hero is dead or released from the snare.

Snareling goop is a cobweb-like^[1] material that can be found within the Echoing Void DLC of Minecraft Dungeons.

Lore

Snareling goop is produced from the bright yellow sacks extending from the back of snarelings. When a snareling's chest opens up, snareling goop is flung through at their prey in order to entrap them.^[1]
