How do you shapeshift into other mobs in minecraft?

On Minecraft there is a mob that is bugging me and I want its loot but I can't because I have no fire resistance and it is too powerful.

How can I shapeshift into other mobs so that I can defeat it?

With vanilla Minecraft, this is impossible. To shapeshift you will need to use a mod.

Here are some ideas on how you could kill that mob using vanilla Minecraft:

• Kill all mobs in a 10 block radius: /kill @e[type=!Player, r=10] (beware this will destroy item frames and armour stands)
• Cheat in diamonds to create good tools and armour: /give @p minecraft:diamond 64
• Generate a /give command for enchanted swords etc: Use this

If Fire Resistance is the only thing you need, you can get it for 200 seconds using the following command:

/effect @p 12 200 1

Well "shapeshifting" would be a mod so I'm going to assume you're using a mod. I use "voids wrath" to install mods so all I have to do is kill the mob to turn into it (i.e. morph). This isn't the best answer I know but for me I just use my keypad to change to different mobs that I have unlocked by killing them.
