How to kill Magma Cube

Like slimes: kill the big one and it splits into 2-4 smaller ones, which split again. A sweeping sword or bow clears the small ones fast. They hop high and fall on you - keep moving.

Behavior

Hops toward players, splitting into smaller copies when killed. Immune to fire and lava, takes damage in water. Frogs eat the smallest size and produce froglights.

Taming and breeding

Cannot be tamed or bred.
