What a witch and her hut will give you

The hut is a tiny stilt house with a cauldron, a crafting table and a flower pot. A witch lives inside, usually with a black cat. Witches throw harmful potions from range and drink healing or speed potions when hurt, so close the gap fast and keep milk handy.

• Drops: redstone dust, glowstone dust, sugar, spider eyes, gunpowder, sticks and glass bottles.
• The cat: offer raw cod or salmon to tame it, and it will follow you home.
• Crafting table: it saves you a log if you reach the hut before dark.

Only the hut's own boxy footprint spawns witches, so a one-time kill does not empty the swamp. Fire arrows are a good way to deal with them from a safe perch.

Swamp tricks that pay off

Swamps are muddy, wet and dim, with lily pads and vines everywhere. Slimes bounce out on moonlit nights, so carry a sword and a few torches. Boats let you cross the shallows in seconds.

The classic reward here is a witch farm. Build a platform around the hut so witches fall into a drop chute with a kill chamber below. That gives a steady supply of redstone and glowstone, which beats mining for them.

• Pick blue orchids for suspicious stew or dye.
• Dig up clay in shallow water for bricks.
• Bring an antidote, since poison from witch potions can linger.

Light up the swamp floor around your base, and the only dangerous spot left will be the hut itself.
