Leader Zombies are such a weird mechanic that the game just doesn't explain to you at all. I genuinely thought I was tripping when i first encountered one.

Some random player: Guys I'm telling you, the longer I'm at my base the harder the game becomes

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eakObY6BQow&t=565">9:25</a> the health of leader zombies was bugged for the longest time, which made it so they had 20 health like normal zombies, it was only recently fixed in a snapshot of 26.1, which is why a lot of ppl never encountered a leader with increased health.

I remember the pocket edition updating for ps4 and my friend and I read "the longer you stay, the harder the mobs spawn" and I thought that the difficulty increases while my friend thought the mobs have it harder to spawn<br><br>And in the end we didn't notice a change. Guess I was right 10 years later

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eakObY6BQow&t=564">9:24</a> apparently, they just got the ability to spawn with extra HP, before, they'd spawn with up to 100 max HP, with only 20 ho filled, and it was like that for like a decade I think

I wonder if theres a mod to max out all the different parts of the difficulty system in all chunks, And how much different gameplay with that maxed out would differ from normal hard mode
