FAQ
How is Zombie Wall Head different from Zombie Head?
They are the same item; Zombie Wall Head is simply the block state used automatically when the head is placed against the side of a block rather than on top of one.
What tool do I need to mine it?
None. It breaks with any tool, or by hand, and always drops itself as a Zombie Head item.
How do I get the item to place on a wall?
A creeper must be struck by lightning to become charged, then its explosion must kill a zombie, which always drops its head.
Does Looting affect the drop?
No. The head always drops when a charged creeper's blast kills a zombie; Looting has no effect on this mechanic.
