The hostile mobs you meet most, the bosses and the animals worth knowing, with health, where they spawn, what they drop and how to handle each. Health is in hearts (1 heart = 2 points).
In the Overworld, hostile mobs spawn where block light is 0: on the surface at night, and in caves at any time. Lighting your home and mines with torches stops almost all of it. Zombies and skeletons burn in morning sunlight unless they are in shade or wearing a helmet.
