Pillager

Pillager is a hostile, crossbow-carrying illager that turns up in roaming patrols, at Pillager outposts and in raids on villages. It attacks by firing arrows at players and villagers, making it one of the main threats during raids. Pillagers are commonly seen in groups, often alongside other illagers.

In Bedrock Edition, pillagers drop 0–2 arrows upon death, with the amount increasing with the Looting enchantment. If a Pillager is a raid captain and not part of a raid, it also drops an ominous bottle, with a random level between 1 and 5. When killed by a player, pillagers drop at least 5 experience.

Pillagers cannot be bred and spawn naturally in Pillager outposts, patrols, and raids. Patrols can appear almost anywhere in the Overworld, while outposts serve as permanent bases for pillagers.

Pillagers are hostile mobs that attack from a distance using their crossbows. They have a slow reload time, making it easier for players to evade their shots or attack between reloads. Pillagers do not run away in melee combat, making them aggressive even at close range.
