Combat profile

Values below describe the Minecraft 26.3 / NeoForge defaults. Health is the configured adult wave baseline, not a promise of final HP. Per-entity stats, tier, size and wave scaling can change combat values; egg and command spawns are not a reliable test of wave overrides.

Behavior

Despite its name, this entity uses the same combat class as the Pigman Zombie Brute, including fire immunity, lava swimming, mining and charge behavior. It does not use the ordinary Zombified Piglin class with vanilla anger handling. Its renderer combines the Pigman Brute body with the vanilla Zombified Piglin head. Pigman-family wave rolls can choose it with a 1-in-5 variant roll.

As a Tier-3 invader it resists knockback. A sprinting melee hit adds 3 damage and strong knockback, then ends the sprint. It attacks defenders and the Nexus and can mine obstacles. Equipment can change its combat role; weapons, armor and abilities remain configurable.

Spawning and waves

Entity ID: invmod:zombified_piglin_brute. Its dedicated egg is invmod:zombified_piglin_brute_spawn_egg; it creates the Tier-3 variant directly.

It is a wave-pool variant, not a guaranteed natural replacement of its base mob. There is no fixed first-wave unlock: selection depends on the theme, available budget, active mob settings and a valid spawn location. Standard adult pool cost: 7. RANDOM and RANDOMHELL use their own cost rules (5 for these non-boss mobs); baby options and variant rolls can have different purchase costs.

Shipped theme memberships: ARMORED, RANGED, NETHER, MIXED, RANDOM, RANDOMHELL, BRUTES. These list defaults, not a guarantee of appearance. For built-in pool restrictions versus editable custom themes, see mob modes and Custom Themes.

Drops

Delegates to the vanilla Zombified Piglin loot table. Rotten flesh, gold nuggets and conditional gold ingots. Vanilla kill conditions, Looting and server loot changes apply. Tier 3 adds no guaranteed special item; carried equipment drops follow equipment rules.
