Wither keeps respawning after death.

From duplicate report MCPE-98249:

I spawned a wither in the End and while fighting it, the wither flew into a un-rendered chuck. I killed the original wither. However, now every time that specific chuck leaves my render distance and is then re-rendered, it re-renders with a new wither in it.

From duplicate report MCPE-77692:

Steps to reproduce

  1. summon wither in the end

  2. get wither over the void about 100 blocks from island

  3. respawn and kill ender dragon

  4. bring wither back to the island and kill

  5. unload the area and come back

  6. go the the spot over the void where the wither and it is "duplicated" or respawned

Observed results

I was able to recreate the issue in a creative world. The wither and dragon projectiles are also permanent and never go away.

Expected results

I was hoping the wither would fall into the void during the initial battle to remove from the world.


A friend and I spawned the Wither in the End on my Minecraft realm that we both access on Xbox One. We killed the Wither the first time no problem. However, then came this hotfix. The moment we spawned the Wither and killed it; it respawned again. We killed it again and it would come back again. This happened so many times until I turned the realm's difficulty into peaceful and switched it back to normal. He returned again with half health and the cycle would repeat. We have killed it a grand total of 13 times! It will not stop respawning. It's so bad that the main island, in the End, we had to name a whole section of it NO MANS' LAND cause the wither is destroying it chunk by chunk. We literally can't go in the End anymore without peaceful being on or else we'll get obliterated cause it keeps flying away and bombarding us to oblivion. We are desperate for a fix because now we can't do anything useful in the end other than collect the stacks upon stacks of endstone that are left behind by the Wither's relentless bombardments.

should never summon the wither on the main end island anyway tbh.. that's just asking for trouble

This happened to us last night while on a realm on the current hotfix version (1.14.60). Our wither was already defeated. When travelling back to do some end busting, friend went through a portal first and he encountered a wither he did not actively summon.

This just happened to me the exact same way. I killed him and now he's respawned at about 40% health in my first End area. He hovers over where I portal in and tries blowing me off the platform as soon as I enter. It's super annoying.

Could you please record a video of this happening and attach it to this report (or upload it elsewhere and link it here)?

Im happy I’m not the only one with this issue I started working on a end project and the same thing happened to me.

 

Confirmed I have this issue currently in the End. Even killing with commands doesn't work. 

This is me killing it. Checking its dead. And then it respawns and killing it again.

A future workaround could be to Reset the End in Bedrock, ported from Legacy Console.

Is this still an issue in the latest version of the game?

This issue seems no longer reproduce in 1.21.44
