Description

Cyan Harness is a harness that a player equips on a Happy Ghast to make the mob rideable. Cyan Harness is one of 16 dyed harness variants. Crafting Cyan Harness requires 3 leather, 2 glass and 1 cyan wool in a 3×2 pattern, with the 3 leather above glass, cyan wool and glass, and yields 1 harness.

A player equips Cyan Harness by using the harness on a Happy Ghast, and a dispenser can perform the same equip. The harnessed Happy Ghast carries up to 4 players at once, and the cyan color tints the decorative curtains that hang from the sides of the mob. Shears used on the harnessed Happy Ghast remove Cyan Harness and drop the harness as an item. Cyan Harness exists in Java Edition since 1.21.6 and in Bedrock Edition since 1.21.90.

Frequently asked questions

Does Cyan Harness stack in Minecraft?

Cyan Harness does not stack, so each harness takes its own inventory slot.

What do the goggles on Cyan Harness show?

The aviator goggles lower over the eyes of the Happy Ghast while someone rides and rise above the eyes when nobody rides, so other players can tell that someone is riding even when the rider is invisible.

How can a Happy Ghast without a harness be attracted?

A Happy Ghast without a harness follows players who hold a harness, so holding Cyan Harness draws the mob along.

Can a player stand on a harnessed Happy Ghast?

Yes. When a player dismounts the harnessed Happy Ghast, the mob snaps to the nearest cardinal direction and the player can stand on the Happy Ghast like on solid blocks.

Can Cyan Harness be enchanted?

Cyan Harness cannot be enchanted in Survival Mode. In Java Edition Creative Mode, an anvil can add enchantments such as Thorns, Feather Falling and Protection, while other enchantments have no effect.
