Wither Knight
Wither Knight is an armored wither skeleton from Bosses’ Rise. It isn’t a boss with its own arena: Wither Knights spawn in groups inside the Underworld Knight's arena, so players fight them on the way to that Act III boss. No quest requires killing one.
Spawning#
Wither Knights spawn as part of the Underworld Arena (block_factorys_bosses:underworld_arena) in the Nether Wastes and Soul Sand Valley. Inside the arena, hostile spawns are replaced by Soul Skeletons (twice as common) and Wither Knights, in groups of 1–3.
Stats#
The Wither Knight has no level floor or cap, so its level matches the Soulrend level of the nearest player. The columns use the typical levels of the acts in which players visit the arena (see Mob Levels).
