The Wither

Background

The Wither is an undead boss mob that floats and shoots explosive skulls at its enemies and is currently the only directly player-made hostile mob in the game.

The fight varies across Minecraft editions; it is much harder in Bedrock, which includes two times more health, new attacks, and animations to this boss and is fast-paced.

Their drops are a good amount of experience and the nether star, a crafting ingredient for beacons.
