Mob Idea - Juke Golem

Published:

Description

Thought I'd try my hand at some utility mobs this time.

Someone suggested this idea over at the forums, and I thought I'd make a model for it. The original drawings of the mob in question are on the forum thread linked below, but for the sake of consistency with the materials used to create it, I gave the head, arms, and feet the chest texture, since the whole thing's supposed to be made of wood like jukeboxes and note blocks.

**********

Juke Golem (also called Note Golem, Music Golem, or Record Player Golem)
:bulletorange: Alignment: Utility
:bulletorange: Health: 25 (12.5x :heart:)
:bulletorange: Damage: N/A
:bulletorange: Spawn: Created by player (4 Jukeboxes + 1 Pumpkin)
:bulletorange: Drops: 2-4 Jukeboxes, 0-2 Note Blocks
:bulletorange: Experience: 0
Once upon a time, someone over at the MC Forums tried putting four Jukeboxes together in a T-pose and stuck a pumpkin on top. This beatboxing wooden construct was the end result. The Juke Golem is a utility mob that is only half as durable as the Iron Golem, but still a useful ally if you don't want mobs to bother you, at least in a certain designated area.
Once you've constructed your music-disc-playing friend, simply right-click him to open up his own GUI. You can put either sequences of note blocks, for simple jingles, or music discs if you want a more diverse playlist. You can raise or lower the volume (the arms tilt up or down accordingly) by right-clicking with redstone and wool, respectively (or a volume apparatus could be put in the GUI).
Of course, golems have to be useful in some way, even in a combat situation. So to quote the original creator: "The record player golem is a pacifist, a lover not a fighter, so he doesn't attack mobs with his speaker hands. Instead, when his speakers are at maximum volume, this disrupts the targeting system of all mobs within a 16-block radius (including iron golems and wolves, so be careful) so they have a chance of losing sight of whatever they were trying to attack, for a few moments, while the music sweeps them away in a reverie of awesomeness." (To balance this, if you hit a distracted mob, it will re-target you even within the music radius.)
