Mobs with the “Invulnerable” tag are immune to most types of damage but can be damged by players in creative mode, but due to this bug players can’t damage invulnerable mobs with a spear.
Steps to reproduce:
Go into creative mode.
Type the following command: /summon camel ~ ~ ~ {Invulnerable:1b} (I chose the camel due to it’s large hitbox).
Attempt to damage the camel using a spear.
Expected result: since the player is in creative the camel will take damage.
Observed result: the camel doesn’t take damage.
Thank you for your report!
