Even though Herobrine doesn't exist in the original version of Minecraft, if you download a mod you can still face it! In the different mods you will find different Herobrines, but some fighting techniques apply to all variants. Some of them have special requirements to be defeated, so try to deal with them wisely. Good luck!
Steps
Method 1 of 2: With a Mod
Step 1. Get good weapons and armor
It is important to have good weapons and armor, no matter who you are facing. Get iron or diamond armor and weapons if you can.
Step 2. Always stay on the move
By moving often in any battle, you will be harder to hit. Try to face Herobrine in an area that allows you to move easily, free of obstacles.
Step 3. Use potions
Some potions can be very useful when fighting Herobrine, no matter what mod you have installed. The most useful ones include:
- Potions of Strength, created using Nether Wart, Blaze Dust, and Glowstone Dust.
- Potions with negative effects that can be cast (to hit Herobrine), such as potions of weakness, poisons or potions of slowness.
Step 4. Use traps
There are many different traps for monsters. You will have to choose the ones that you can afford, that are suitable for the area you are in and that can hit the version of Herobrine in your game. Each mod has different weaknesses for Herobrine, so you'll need to figure out which traps can hit him.
Step 5. Get a good bow and arrows
Eliminating Herobrine with a bow and arrow is a great technique. Climb into a tree or other safe place, then slowly reduce its health. You can use your bow and arrow even if you stay on the ground - just keep moving!
Step 6. Create a lighthouse
The beacons will give you bonuses if you fight Herobrine near them. When you upgrade one to maximum level, you will be able to choose bonuses that will help you defeat Herobrine with ease. The best choices are strength and endurance.
Step 7. Take advantage of playing at home
Never take on Herobrine in an area you don't know well. You will need to be able to move quickly and attack him without worrying about what's around you. You should also always have a plan. First decide how to use your surroundings. If you take the fight seriously you will already have an advantage.
Method 2 of 2: Without a Mod
Step 1. Don't worry
Herobrine does not exist, has never existed and will never exist. This is a myth or legend spread by Minecraft players, used to scare inexperienced or young players. If you believe that Herobrine really exists, someone has deceived you. If you think you've seen Herobrine, you are wrong or your server administrator is making fun of you. It is not possible take on Herobrine without modifying the original game.
This means that all the urban legends about what Herobrine can do to you in real life are also not true. It will not come out of the computer to torment you if you leave it on at night, etc
Step 2. Stop listening to the trolls
Many of Herobrine's "signs" are easy to craft. Don't trust anyone who says their version of the game isn't modified. Don't be scared even if you see it in your version of the game. Admins can change their appearance, the way their name is displayed, and do things like teleport and destroy large areas to scare you. These are forms of harassment or bullying and if someone tells you that Herobrine is real, they are not very nice to you.
Step 3. Study the game code
A game's code is like its DNA. Just as humans do not have wings because they are not foreseen in our DNA, a game cannot have content that is not present in the code. Codes always leave a trace. It is not possible to hide something from experienced users. Don't you think that if Herobrine was really intended in the game, someone would have found the code responsible for its creation? Herobrine can only be created by mods, which introduce new code into the game.
Step 4. Listen to Notch
Notch, the creator of the game, has repeatedly stated that Herobrine does not exist and will never exist. Since a lot of his profits come from kids who love his game, do you really think he'd add anything that might scare them?
