Overview

Mob Kabob is a goal advancement in the Adventure tab of Minecraft's advancement system, carrying the in-game description "Hit five mobs in the same Charge attack using the Spear." It branches directly off Monster Hunter, so that earlier advancement is its prerequisite and must be earned first. The Adventure tab covers advancements focused on exploration, combat, trading, and interacting with the world and its inhabitants. Mob Kabob was added in Minecraft 1.21.11 and is still in the 26.2 advancement set.

It is rated Hard difficulty on this site: requires significant effort, rare resources, or dangerous encounters. It is classed as a goal advancement, which renders with the rounded goal frame in the menu and marks a notable objective along the way rather than a trivial step. Nothing else in the tree depends on it, so it is a leaf at the tip of its branch.

In tree terms, Mob Kabob sits second along its line: the full path from the Adventure root reads Adventure -> Monster Hunter -> Mob Kabob. That means 2 advancements must be completed before this one becomes available, and Mob Kabob is one of 47 total advancements in the Adventure tab. It shares its parent with 5 sibling advancements (Monsters Hunted, Take Aim, It Spreads, A Throwaway Joke, and Postmortal), all of which open from the same point in the tree.

How to Complete Mob Kabob

Earning Mob Kabob comes down to the following, performed in order:

  1. Hit five mobs in one charge attack with the spear.
  2. A charge attack only does damage while you and the target are moving toward each other at 4.6 blocks per second or faster, so charge from a horse or a camel into a group.
  3. Armor stands and mannequins count as mobs here.

Tips & Fastest Route

  • Fastest route: hit five mobs in one charge attack with the spear. The remaining steps follow from there.
  • Make sure Monster Hunter is already ticked off before you start, otherwise Mob Kabob will not be tracked even if you perform the steps correctly.
  • At Hard difficulty, Mob Kabob rewards preparation over speed: line up the items and conditions in the steps first rather than improvising mid-attempt.

Common Mistakes

  • Remember that Mob Kabob will not appear as available until Monster Hunter is done, since the game only tracks an advancement once its parent has been unlocked.

Reward & What It Unlocks

Mob Kabob grants no experience directly; its value is progression rather than a point payout.

It is a leaf advancement, so nothing further unlocks from it; it stands as a completed tip of its branch.
