Frequently asked questions

How do I summon a Vindicator in Minecraft?
Enable cheats or use OP, open chat with T or /, paste /summon minecraft:vindicator ~ ~ ~ (Java) or /summon vindicator ~ ~ ~ (Bedrock), and press Enter. The Vindicator spawns at your feet.
Does the summon Vindicator command work on Bedrock Edition?
Yes — use /summon vindicator ~ ~ ~. Bedrock uses the same entity IDs without the "minecraft:" prefix and does not support NBT arguments like custom names in the summon command.
Why does my summoned Vindicator despawn?
Mobs despawn when no players are nearby. On Java Edition, add {PersistenceRequired:1b} to the summon command to prevent it. On Bedrock, use a name tag on the mob after summoning.
