I think the raytracing vs vector math argument is pretty much mute as we need to do the ray tracing to see if the player can actually see the enderman.

Yeah you can use the tracer class for that. Also I never said he needed to do raytracing, only a ray-sphere intersection. The arguments are mute anyway because it will have negligible performance impact.

You would do the intersection check before the tracing though, because the trace is indeed much slower. The trace is only necessary when it is known the player is actually looking in the direction of the enderman.
