So I've listed a the following tasks and when I test run minecraft, my mob just sits there and only once in a while pursues and attacks the player for like 2 seconds, only attacking a maximum of 2 times and then stops and sits there again. I have extended the custom mob's EntityClass to EntityMob and have declared a damage amount already. 

Here is the entity class

public EntityChimera(World world) {
		super(world);
		this.tasks.addTask(0, new EntityAINearestAttackableTarget(this, EntityPlayer.class, true, true));
		this.tasks.addTask(1, new EntityAIAttackMelee(this, 1.0D, true));
		
		this.tasks.addTask(2, new EntityAIMoveTowardsRestriction(this, 1.0D));
		this.tasks.addTask(4, new EntityAIWander(this, 1.5D));
		this.tasks.addTask(5, new EntityAIWatchClosest(this, EntityPlayer.class, 20f));
		this.tasks.addTask(6, new EntityAILookIdle(this));
		
		setSize(2.0F, 2.0F);

	}

More than anything, the mob just sits there and does nothing. I've watched a multitude of tutorials, but it doesn't seem like any of them do something different. Maybe I missed it, but I don't think so.

I'm trying to get my mob to hunt down the player like all other mobs, but I think I'm missing something

 

EDIT: turns out that when I edited it, I took out the AttackMelee task

public EntityChimera(World world) {
		super(world);
		this.targetTasks.addTask(0, new EntityAINearestAttackableTarget(this, EntityPlayer.class, true, true));
		this.targetTasks.addTask(1, new EntityAIAttackMelee(this, .25D, true));
		
		this.tasks.addTask(2, new EntityAIMoveTowardsRestriction(this, .25D));
		this.tasks.addTask(4, new EntityAIWander(this, .25D));
		this.tasks.addTask(5, new EntityAIWatchClosest(this, EntityPlayer.class, 20f));
		this.tasks.addTask(6, new EntityAILookIdle(this));
		
		setSize(2.0F, 2.0F);

I fixed it but it still just sits there and runs around once in a great while, it still doesn't attack the player
