A Watchling is a hostile enderling that can be found within the Echoing Void DLC of Minecraft Dungeons.

Lore

There were many different subspecies of endermen that resided within the End, and it did not take the Heroes long to meet them. These subspecies were collectively known as enderlings. Watchlings were accounted as being the creepiest enderlings due to their appearance. Despite this, however, they preferred to defend their home in simple ways. As such upon detecting the heroes, they immediately teleported over, striking them with "muscular" arms. The Heroes eventually prevailed against them, making their way to the Broken Citadel, where they put a final end to the Orb of Dominance once and for all.

Behavior

Teleport

Upon noticing a hero, the watchling teleports toward them, similar to endermen.

Basic attack

After teleporting, the watchling swings its arms at the hero, dealing moderate damage.

Heavy attack

After teleporting, the watchling may attack by swinging both of its arms downward, dealing high damage.

Teleport escape

Also like endermen, watchlings can hide in teleportation and not immediately reappear.

Sounds

The idle, hurt and death of the watchling include distorted zombie enderling sounds.

Upon defeating the watcher of the end, a gilded variant of the following items drops as a reward:

• Entertainer's Garb
  • The Troubadour
• Shadow Crossbow
  • Veiled Crossbow
• Void Touched Blades
  • The Beginning and The End

When playing a four-player-server, both heroes pressing the button cause four watcher of the end to spawn. This makes it harder to beat than the The Unending and the Windbeard due to both the golems' undead enchantments.
