How to Obtain Wither Skulls
Find a Nether Fortress. Nether Fortresses are special structures located in the Nether. These fortresses are the only place in Minecraft where wither skeletons spawn. Nether Fortresses are more likely to spawn in locations where the X-axis is positive. If you're having trouble finding a Nether Fortress, you can use the command /locate structure minecraft:nether-fortress. You can also use your world seed at www.chunkbase.com to locate Nether Fortresses in your world.
Defeat wither skeletons. Wither skeletons spawn within Nether Fortresses, but the chance of getting a wither skull is low. If a player character or a tamed wolf kills a wither skeleton, it has a 2.5% chance of dropping a skull. While you can get wither skulls without adding Looting to your weapons, each level of Looting increases your chances of getting a wither skull. Java Edition: Each level of looting increases your chance by 1% for a maximum of 5.5% with Looting III Bedrock Edition: Each level of looting increases your chance by 2% for a maximum of 8.5% with Looting III If you kill a wither skeleton with a charged creeper, one (Java Edition) or all (Bedrock Edition) are guaranteed to drop their heads.
Wither Skull Uses
Summoning the wither. The main use for wither skulls is to spawn the wither. You'll need three wither skulls to summon the wither, along with four blocks of soul sand and/or soul soil.
Crafting the Skull banner pattern. If you combine one paper with one wither skeleton skull, you'll get the Skull banner pattern.
Wearing as a helmet. Like other heads, you can wear the wither skeleton skull as a helmet. However, unlike other heads, wearing a wither skeleton skull as a helmet will not reduce their detection range.
Decoration. Like other heads, wither skeleton skulls can be used as decoration. You can place the skulls on top of or on the side of blocks, similar to signs.
