Quick answer
- Shulkers only live in end cities.
- Their bullets give Levitation for 10 seconds.
- They drop a Shulker shell 50% of the time. Two shells make a shulker box.
Shulkers hide in boxes on end city walls. They're the only source of shulker shells, so every end city trip is a shell hunt.

Fighting them

Watch the edgesLevitation near the void is deadly. Drink milk or stand on solid ground under a roof.
Shells and boxes
Each shulker drops a shell 50% of the time, plus 6.25% per Looting level. Craft 2 shells and a chest into a Shulker box, which keeps its items when you break it.
Duplicating shulkersA shulker hit by another shulker's bullet while open can split into two. That's how shulker farms work.
