Is there a way I can increase an entity's health to make it similar to a boss battle without using command blocks etc.?

    Have you made any attempt to solve this yourself? Arqade works better when askers show effort to solve their own problems; we see that you have a problem you've worked on, and answerers respond to that. You also get a more specific answer that's tailored exactly to the part you're stuck, and Arqade gets a very specific question. Everybody wins!

No. You can only increase an entity's health in vanilla using command blocks.

You can however hit them with a resistance potion. Which makes them more resistant to damage. Basically it has the same amount of health but damage is reduced

  • Thank you for helping! I think that this mostly solves my problem, if anyone else though comes up with a way, I'll look at it. But if not, this will be marked!

I think there is a way to fix this problem.

I've been playing around with boss fights and battles, and at the moment I'm working on a project myself

Here is a command that will summon a zombie that won't burn in the light and it will have 100 health and a diamond sword (Copy and paste this into the chat): 

/summon minecraft:zombie ~ ~1 ~ {CanPickUpLoot:0b,Health:100,Attributes:[{Name:"generic.maxHealth",Base:100}],IsBaby:0,HandItems:[{id:"minecraft:diamond_sword",Count:1},{}],ArmorItems:[{},{},{},{id:"minecraft:stone_button",Count:1}]}

I could add more stuff to it like the boss will glow, it will have a custom name at the top of it's head like The Boss!!! and it could have an enchanted sword and when you kill him he drops the sword. I could also add a whole lot more but you would have to use only one command block.

if you don't know how to get a command block then you just do this: 

/give@p minecraft:command_block

That will give the nearest player a command block, or if in a single player world or if your the only one in it, it'll give you the command block.
