When the Ender Dragon is struck with a projectile (best tested with a snowball), and the hit lands on a specific point along the dragon's neck, the dragon takes approximately four times the normal damage. This behavior appears to be unintended and possibly due to a hitbox or damage calculation issue.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Spawn or find the Ender Dragon in The End.
2. Equip snowballs or any other projectile (e.g., bow, trident).
3. Aim at the upper-middle part of the dragon's neck (between head and body).
4. Throw snowballs at this region repeatedly.
5. Observe the health reduction rate.

Damage from snowballs should be negligible or uniform across the dragon’s body.
Observed Behavior:
Damage dealt is significantly higher (roughly 4x) when hitting a specific spot on the dragon's neck with a snowball or projectile.
