The wildfire, originally known as Mob D or the "Hovering Inferno", was a proposed mob featured in the Mob Vote during MINECON Earth 2017, alongside the barnacle, the phantom and the great hunger.[1]
It was a type of blaze with its body parts looking like shields in order to defend itself from attacks. This mob would spawn with groups of blazes randomly to attack the player in the Nether with a dangerous shock wave attack. Jens Bergensten argued that viewers should vote for Mob D because it would make the Nether "even more scary and exciting".[2]
The wildfire received 24% of the votes in the first round and moved onto the second,[3] losing with 28% of the votes.[4]
