These raids bring an opportunity for the players to defend all the villagers and fight with the pillagers and defeat them; by doing so, the player becomes the 'Hero of the Village.'

So through becoming a hero, a player can obtain multiple good trades, which will help in game progression. This article will help players to know how to trigger a pillager raid in Minecraft and take advantage of trade by defeating the pillagers.

Killing a Pillager Captain: These captains wear ominous banners and can be found leading patrols or at Pillager outposts. Defeating one gives the player the Bad Omen effect.
Using an Ominous Bottle: Introduced in Minecraft 1.21, consuming this item bestows the Bad Omen effect.
Note: In the Java Edition, if you keep on killing more captains, it will increase the Bad Omen level; the max is 5, where it really gets intense.
2. Enter a village.
Once the player successfully gets the Bad Omen effect active, they need to enter a village in order to trigger a raid.
Make sure you enter a village where there is at least one villager present and with a claimed bed in order to make the raid work. In Java Edition, a claimed bell or job site block can also define a village.
Upon entering the village:
The Bad Omen effect is consumed.
A raid bar appears, indicating the raid's progress.
Waves of illagers, including pillagers, vindicators, evokers, and ravagers, attack the village.
3. Prepare for the raid.
Always remember to be prepared before initiating a raid. Here is how a player should prepare before they trigger the raid:
Gear Up: Equip strong armor and weapons. Enchanted gear can provide a significant advantage.
Stock Supplies: Carry ample food, potions, and building materials.
Secure Villagers: Ensure villagers are safe, as their survival is crucial for a successful defense.
Familiarize yourself with the village layout: Knowing the village's structure aids in strategic defense.
Pillager raids help players in multiple ways and allow them to progress faster in the game, as they get discounted rates of trade from the Hero effect. It is also considered a good way to warm up for bigger battles.

‘Detective Ujjwalan' box office collections day 10: Dhyan Sreenivasan's murder mystery crosses Rs 5.56 cr worldwide
(Picture Courtesy:Facebook) Dhyan Sreenivasan is finally celebrating a box office success this year with the murder mystery 'Detective Ujjwalan'. As per the Sacnilk reports, the film has collected Rs 5.56 crore worldwide in ten days, with Rs 4.96 crore from India net collections. Dhyan Sreenivasan scores his first hit of 2025 While the movie opened modestly, it has shown a steady run across weekdays and weekends, steadily building its audience and word-of-mouth. The film's growing collections signal that audiences are enjoying this crime comedy blend, marking a positive turning point for Dhyan's 2025 releases. A lighthearted detective faces a darker challenge 'Detective Ujjwalan' revolves around Ujjwalan, a quirky librarian who moonlights as the village detective, helping solve small-time problems like lost gold or missing goats. Plachikavu village is so peaceful that even the police lean on Ujjwalan's skills to handle petty crime. But the tone shifts when a series of brutal murders shock the quiet village, leaving everyone to wonder whether their local amateur sleuth can rise to the challenge of catching a dangerous criminal. As tension builds, Ujjwalan must stretch beyond his usual comic charm to crack a case that threatens the entire village's safety. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 2025 Top Trending local enterprise accounting software [Click Here] Esseps Learn More Undo Detective Ujjwalan - Official Trailer ETimes verdict ETimes gave the movie a rating of 2.5 stars out of 5 and our review read, 'There are some rules that a detective story needs to make it work and for the effect to stay with us. Some red herrings that will confuse the audience so that we are emotionally and intellectually caught up in the story, a detective who uses logic that will baffle us with its brilliance and a final revelation of the culprit that will shock us. Detective Ujjwalan does not use any of these devices in a forceful enough manner. The period settings are interesting and the village characters are loveable enough, though some of the superb comic talents from social media, Ameen, Nihal Nizam, Nibraz and Shahubas, are barely utilised. The film seems to go in the direction of most Dhyan films; a bit of an anti-climax.' What's next? With Rs 57 lakhs collected on its tenth day, 'Detective Ujjwalan' continues to draw crowds despite facing competition from new releases. Given the current momentum, the movie is likely to continue adding to its box office tally in the coming weeks.
