Overview
Vexes fly through solid blocks, so walls, doors and a sealed room provide no protection at all, and they hit for 9 on Normal with an iron sword despite having only 14 health. They glow red when charging in. Left alone they slowly take damage and die out on their own. The correct answer is almost always to kill the evoker first so no more are summoned, then swat the survivors.
Vex is a hostile mob in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.4. You will need to deal 14 damage — 7 hearts — to kill one. Its attacks do 9 damage on Normal.
