MC-252080Warden's Sonic Boom cannot kill witches
The warden's sonic boom deals reduced damage to witches, and since witches can heal themselves faster than the warden can attack them, a warden cannot kill a witch.
How to reproduce:
- Build a pillar that is 3 blocks high.
- Spawn a witch on top of it.
- Two blocks above the highest block of the pillar, place a solid block one block away on each side so the witch can't escape.
- Place a block above the witch.
- Spawn a warden on the ground and watch it attempt to kill the witch.
Expected result:
The warden would be able to kill the witch with its sonic boom attacks.
Observed result:
The warden keeps attacking the witch with its sonic boom to no avail, as the witch heals itself after every attack.

Later this video, this player tried to let 100 Wardens to beat a single Witch. In normal, the Witch would die seconds later, while she didn't and even stood there just like a heavy mountain, calmly drinking Potions of Healing and fighting back against those cyan huge monsters.
========
If "Witches take 15% of magic damage" is true, this feature would make sense that Sonic Boom is a magic attack.

I think Sonic Boom is a physics attack rather 'an magic one. If this is a feature, just ignore this comment…
[Mojang] Brandon Pearce said on Twitter that they were considering changing the sonic boom to be a magic attack. Also, the 22w17a patch notes say that the sonic boom was changed to bypass shields and deal less damage per attack (but with more frequent attacks). It seems extremely likely that this is intentional.
It seems intentional, so the witches would have to be updated.
Don't edit the title feel free!!!
I'm posting to confirm that whether Sonic Boom is a magic attack or not!!! Rather 'an if it can kill Witch!!!
As you're aware, this is a bugtracker, not a discussion forum. Therefore, reports have to focus on a specific issue with the game.
We have edited the title to indicate a specific game impact.
The reason why I think Sonic Boom is a magic attack is that which can either not hurt Ender Dragon (
MC-250255), while Ender Dragon don't take magic damages. I believe there's sth to do with both Dragon's and Witch's behavior.Can confirm in 1.19.1.
1.19.2.
1.19.4-Pre3.
quoting the minecraft wwiki
''The poison, instant damage, evoker fangs, warden's sonic boom and the Thorns enchantment magical sources are 85% less effective against witches''
