How to Survive Raider Assaults in Minecraft

Minecraft is a very versatile game, where each player can choose the way they want to play. While some are dedicated to building great things, and others to planting, some are dedicated to combat. Today we teach you how to survive looters’ assaults in Minecraft.

what are robberies

If you have been playing in the latest version of Minecraft for a while, it is most likely that you have come across the Illagers (Maldeanos, in Spanish). Illagers are monsters similar to villagers, but very aggressive (hence the Maldean name).

The most common type of Maldean is the raider, a monster that uses crossbows to attack its enemies. These travel in groups, with a leader carrying a flag above his head.

By killing one of these leaders, the game grants you the “Bad Omen” effect for one week, in game time. If you have that effect and enter a village, the game will spawn an assault against that village.

An Assault consists of a group of Maldeans, including Ravagers; and some witches. The Maldeans will try to kill all the villagers in the village, and the assault will not end until they have succeeded, or until they have been defeated.

How to survive an assault

If you are reading this article because you are in the middle of a robbery, don’t worry, we will explain how to survive. Also, if you read on you’ll see that there are some advantages to purposely creating assaults to defeat them.

If you are already in a robbery

If you’ve been caught off guard by an assault while in a village, there are a few things you can do. You could try to fight off the raiders, but unless you have good weapons, enough food, and a bed nearby, chances are you’re going to lose.

Note that the assault will not stop until all the villagers are dead, and raiders can open doors to enter houses. So to save the village, you can cover the entrance to a house with stone blocks to prevent looters from entering.

If you just want to survive, you can run out of the village. The raiders aren’t interested in you, they’re interested in the village, so if you walk away from there, they’ll leave you alone.

To defeat an assault

Raiders have a good chance of dropping valuable items when killed. Also, defeating a raid makes you the “Hero of the Village”, and the villagers will give you gifts and discounts on their offers.

To defeat an assault, preparation is vital. There are a few points you should keep in mind long before you start thinking about defeating raiders:

  • Protect the villagers by locking them in their houses.
  • You must craft a diamond or iron sword, it is better if it is enchanted.
  • Bow and arrows.
  • Full diamond or iron armor, best if enchanted.
  • You need a shield. Raiders use crossbows.
  • Food, and optionally potions.

It is also recommended to have milk, which removes all effects (such as hunger or poison). If you use potions, you can use honey to remove the poison without removing the positive effects of the potions.

Having a bed in or near the village is vital. That way, if you die, you can move on quickly without risking losing villagers or losing your stuff.

Before you start the raid, you should make some traps to set up around the village so you can protect it. Once the assault begins, it all comes down to how well you prepared.

As soon as the assault begins, ring the bell. This makes Raiders glow in the dark, and can be seen through walls. Your goal is to kill them as fast as possible.

Your priority should be witches, since they heal others, and their poison is not stopped by shields or armor. Then focus on the ravagers as they deal a ton of damage.

Evokers create monsters that can pass through walls, so they can kill villagers even if they’re shielded; you should finish them off early.
