[MCPE-30899] Guardians won't spawn

Once Guardians were defeated and killed. No more have spawned at all. I worked really hard on this part of the game to not be able to reap the benefits of the guardians is really discouraging.
I'm not sure what affected version? Or where to find that info?

Not experiencing this issue on Xbox 360

Eryn Piatt 2018-02-08T21:58:37Z

I'm on Xbox one.

I've gone through 2 different monuments now, and neither will spawn guardians once killed.

If you are referring to the Elder Guardians, they do not respawn. Normal guardians should still spawn.

I'm referring to normal guardians 😞

Are you playing on the Bedrock Edition/Better Together Update?

Eryn Piatt 2018-02-09T18:03:49Z

How do I find that out?

Eryn Piatt 2018-02-09T18:05:32Z

It says Minecraft Xbox live. Version 1.2.1002.70

⚠️ Issues that concern Minecraft (Xbox One Bedrock version) should be posted on the Minecraft (Bedrock codebase) tracker. I moved your ticket to the correct section.

How do I find my ticket now?

Thank you 🙂

We think this might be the result of one of the other spawning issues. Can you please try the following to see if it enables mobs to spawn:

Stand at sea level (y64) above the Ocean Monument
Switch the difficulty to Peaceful and then back to Hard
Then explore the monument to see if guardians begin to spawn again.

Could not confirm on Windows 10 1.2.10.2.

I killed about 20-30 guardians, mostly under but a few inside the monument. Then I went to Y=64 above its center and switched to Peaceful and back to Hard. Guardians respawned, though it seemed as if there were fewer than before and very few were inside. It seemed to take a couple of minutes to build up to the mob cap of 10, but that could be because they're scattered over a wide area and I could only see those within 16 blocks because of MCPE-31219.

I went to y=64 turned to peaceful, waited a new seconds and turned back to hard. Waited a few minutes and still no guardians spawned. Problem still persists.

Is this occurring in a converted world? (converted from xbox one edition to the bedrock version)

Eryn Piatt 2018-03-05T23:20:12Z

No. The world was started on bedrock version.

[Mojang] Mega_Spud (Jay) 2018-03-15T11:46:47Z

Are you able to provide a copy of the world in question?

LUIS SOSA 2018-05-15T00:56:33Z

I'm experiencing the same issue with guardians. Playing on Xbox One 1.2.13
