Can mobs use stairs?

In Minecraft, mobs generally cannot intentionally use stairs to navigate up or down, as stairs aren't considered full pathfinding blocks for them, but they can get stuck on or accidentally move up/down them due to bumping, pathfinding towards a player, or being pushed, especially with upside-down stairs or when the stair is part of a path, though they mostly just get stuck or fall. They are better at navigating ladders (sometimes unintentionally) or clear paths, not the slanted surface of stairs.

Can mobs climb stairs in Minecraft?

Any mob can climb a ladder in the same way a player does: by pushing against it. Mobs are not smart enough to use ladders deliberately — they do not remain on a ladder to get somewhere, but a ladder directly in their path lets them climb up.

Do mobs pathfind to stairs?

Mobs pathfind to nearby solid blocks, so if there are more nearby, they will be more likely to pathfind. You can even exploit this by only placing solid blocks in areas you want mobs to walk towards, and making other places out of non-solid blocks (glass, slabs, stairs).

Yes, in most zombie lore (movies, games, books like World War Z), zombies can climb stairs, often clumsily, by shuffling or piling on each other, though they struggle more with ladders; however, slower or dumber zombies (like classic Romero) might not, making stairs a common defense, while faster "infected" types usually manage them easily.

What will mobs not walk over?

In Minecraft, mobs generally avoid blocks that are partially transparent, less than a full block high (like bottom slabs), or create an impassable barrier in their AI, such as carpets over string or other carpets, open trapdoors, rails (sometimes), and soul sand/honey blocks (which slow them down), though some, like spiders, can still pass certain obstacles like carpets. They treat some of these as air or unsafe terrain, preventing them from pathfinding across them, making them great for mob-proofing areas.

Illegal blocks in Minecraft are unobtainable blocks from normal gameplay, often resulting from glitches, exploiting older game versions, or using commands, and include things like functional barrier blocks, invisible bedrock, light blocks, command blocks, and old world generation blocks (like portal frames or end gateways) that retain their original properties.
