How to tame a Pillager in Minecraft: Step by Step Guide

Illager were recently added to Minecraft and these mobs are a hostile form of Villagers that sport bushy eyebrows and pale grey skin. One variant of Illager is the Pillager, a ranged unit that fights with a crossbow. Unlike melee Illager, these Pillagers can be manipulated to drop their crossbow and embrace friendship!

Taming a Pillager is a straightforward yet difficult task. The Pillager simply needs to expend all of its available ammunition to become a friendly unit. However, avoiding the Pillagers shots is usually next to impossible considering their laser-like aim. By utilizing slabs, the player can ensure Pillager aggression while also maintaining their safety. Only a few shots will kill a player, so be careful!
