Spawning

Patrols

5 pillagers spawn in patrols. Patrols spawn naturally throughout the night but after 5 in-game days. They spawn independently of structures, including villages and pillager outposts (i.e. they will still spawn in a "no structures" world).
In Bedrock Edition patrols spawn 2–5 illagers; on easy and normal difficulties all illagers are pillagers, while on hard difficulty 80% will be pillagers and 20% will be vindicators, spawning 24–48 blocks away from the player. On easy difficulty, they can only spawn at light level 0–7 while in normal and hard difficulties they can spawn in any light level after 5 in-game days.

Pillager outposts

Pillagers naturally spawn within a 64×64 block area around pillager outposts.

Raids

Pillagers are able to spawn as part of raids, as the most common mob in one. Raids start when a player enters a village with the Bad Omen effect.

Behavior

Pillagers are armed with crossbows and attack by shooting arrows at nearby playersiron golemsvillagers, and wandering traders. In Bedrock Edition, pillagers don't attack baby villagers. They shoot an arrow every 3 seconds up to 8 blocks away. This can lead to pillagers battling neutral/hostile mobs due to an arrow hitting the wrong target, though pillagers will never attack each other.
Pillagers will switch to melee attack when fully submerged underwater and do not attack when they don't have any weapons.

Celebrating

If raiding pillagers kill all the villagers in a village in Java and Bedrock editions,‌[upcoming: BE 1.13] the pillagers will celebrate their victory by jumping and laughing.

Reinforcements

In Java Edition, pillagers are able to spawn reinforcements similar to zombies.

Drops

Upon death, pillagers drop:
  • 0–2 Arrows, dropping more with the presence of Looting, up to 5 in Bedrock Edition.
  • Its crossbow (can be loaded or unloaded), which has an 8.5% chance to be dropped; this rate increases by 12% per level of Looting (20.5% with Looting I, 32.5% with Looting II and 44.5% with Looting III). It will have a random durability, and can be enchanted at level 5–19 whether or not it was enchanted when it spawned.
  • experience when killed by a player or tamed wolf.
  • Illager Banner.png Ominous banner, if the pillager is a raid captain. The raid captain will spawn with an ominous banner on its head and will always drop the banner when defeated.
In Bedrock Edition pillagers spawned by raids can drop:
In Bedrock Edition, the following additional drops from pillagers spawned by raids changes depending on difficulty (65% chance on easy and normal, 80% chance on hard):
Notes
  • Iron equipment from raid drops has a 50% chance of being enchanted with random enchantment level 5-19.
  • Iron equipment drops will be damaged.
  • These drops are also affected by the Looting enchantment.
  • Emerald is both a regular raid drop and an additional drop.
  • The enchanted book will have a level 30 enchantment, also can be treasure enchantment.

Bad Omen

If the player kills the pillager wearing a banner on its head, the player will receive the Bad Omen status effect. These pillagers are patrol/outpost captains.
Patrols spawn a single captain, while outposts can spawn 1-3 captains. Those captains will give the Bad Omen effect at level 1, whereas Illager captains in raids do not give Bad Omen. The effect lasts for 100 minutes (5 days in-game) and will stack to a maximum of level 6 (without using commands), but can be removed by drinking milk.
The higher the Bad Omen effect, the more additional waves will appear in a raid.‌[JE only]

Trivia

  • If the player allows a pillager to shoot at them for long enough, their crossbow will eventually break, leaving them with no method of attacking. This causes their behavior to change as well; they simply walk at random similarly to passive mobs, but always face the player if they are in the pillager's field of view. The pillager will also always hold its arm up, similarly to an attacking vindicator.
