How to Defeat the Bogged Mob
Unlike other skeletons, the Bogged mob has eight hearts of health. Luckily, they fight quite similarly to other skeletons. Just like other skeletons, they burn in the sun. To fight Bogged mobs, you first need to understand their attacks. They fire poisonous arrows, which increases their attack damage, making them difficult to fight.
On the other hand, they are a little bit nerfed when it comes to the speed with which they attack. Attack speed for a normal skeleton is two seconds, whereas a Bogged one fires an arrow every 3.5 seconds. This makes their attack relatively easy to dodge.
Considering their attacks, if you are a close combat player, you can use a shield to block the poisonous arrows, and a sword to fight back. If you like to play it safe, you can use a bow and a crossbow to fight it with ranged attacks.
Regardless of the strategy you choose, you must be well equipped with armor, a bucket of milk to counter the poisonous effects of Bogged arrows, potions of healing to regain your health, and potions of resistance to improve your defense.

Can You Tame Bogged Mob?
Sorry to break it to you, but taming Bogged mobs in Minecraft 1.21 isn’t possible. Unfortunately, rather than shooting a flying kiss, they shoot poisonous arrows.
