            <title>[MC-3453] Zombie pigmen/burnable mobs in the sun use up helmets</title>
                <link>https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-3453</link>
                <project id="10400" key="MC">Minecraft: Java Edition</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;I&apos;m not sure if this is actually a bug.&lt;/b&gt; Giving zombies or skeletons a helmet in the sun will take the damage that is supposed to be done to the mob and puts it on the helmet. Giving them a pumpkin will not damage it for obvious reasons. If you lose your armor it shouldn&apos;t be degraded by the time you get back to it.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

                            <comment id="113643" author="torabi" created="Tue, 22 Oct 2013 13:40:59 +0200"  >&lt;p&gt;So a zombie or a skeleton wearing a helmet makes the &lt;b&gt;helmet take damage from sunlight&lt;/b&gt;? How does that even work? It makes sense that the helmet protects the wearer from the sun, but it doesn&apos;t make any sense that the helmet would actually take damage from doing so, just because it&apos;s being worn by something that normally takes damage from sunlight.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

                            <comment id="23229" author="orionh" created="Mon, 19 Nov 2012 07:57:44 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;@Anon Ymus&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The mob will choose the best protection. If there is a leather helmet and a diamond helmet on the ground a skeleton will choose the diamond one or throw away the leather one if it picked it up. I&apos;m assuming it works for pumpkins too.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="23161" author="fuj1n" created="Mon, 19 Nov 2012 04:17:01 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;Yeah, the pumpkin cannot get damaged, and I don&apos;t think it&apos;s really possible to program damage values for a block, unless you want it to break in 16 hits.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="23140" author="banana478" created="Mon, 19 Nov 2012 02:42:44 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;Yeah, the taking damage part is a bit weird, but I think that the sun causes damage to the mobs, which must either go into the helmet or the mob itself. I guess we should all carry a pumpkin around (just in case).&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="23139" author="chalmes" created="Mon, 19 Nov 2012 02:40:38 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;While I agree that a skeleton or zombie wearing a helmet should protect it from the sun and is working as intended, I can&apos;t say whether the helmet should take damage in the process while a pumpkin does not.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="23135" author="orionh" created="Mon, 19 Nov 2012 02:26:02 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;It&apos;s just weird because (I think) hitting a skeleton or zombie won&apos;t damage the armor it&apos;s wearing.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="23129" author="banana478" created="Mon, 19 Nov 2012 02:19:37 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;I think this is intended behavior. Helmets should prevent sun from reaching skeletons and zombies.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="23126" author="chalmes" created="Mon, 19 Nov 2012 02:12:56 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;Confirmed.  Gave a skeleton a leather helmet and set time to day.  Waited for a couple of minutes and the helmet broke and the skeleton fried.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Whether or not its intended though I can&apos;t say.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
