Quick answer: Kill a Skeleton from at least 50 meters away

How to get Sniper Duel

  1. Kill a skeleton with an arrow from at least 50 blocks away - horizontal distance is what counts.
  2. Easiest setup: pillar up at night or find a skeleton trapped in a two-block hole, mark its position, walk 50+ blocks back, and shoot.
  3. Arrows drop over distance, so aim noticeably above the skeleton's head. A Power-enchanted bow makes the kill one or two shots.
  4. Alternative cheese: put a skeleton in a boat or minecart, back off 50 blocks, and it cannot dodge.
  5. The kill must be with the arrow itself - the bow's punch or fire ticks after impact still count as long as the arrow dealt the damage.

Tips

Do it in a flat area at dawn with a name-tagged skeleton you prepared the night before. Deserts and frozen rivers give clean 50-block sightlines without trees in the way.
