Spawning [ ]

Natural generation [ ]

In Java Edition, one-time villagers tin can only spawn in versions of Minecraft prior to 1.14. In Bedrock Edition, erstwhile villagers can only spawn if they existed from a template world prior to one.11.0, and any old villager spawned subsequently one.11.0 outside a template globe will be converted into villager_v2.

Infant villagers [ ]

Villagers will breed apart, but need doors and need to be willing in order to spawn babe villagers. Afterward exactly 20 minutes during which the infant villager is inside render distance, the baby villager will grow up to an adult. See this section for more information.

Curing [ ]

Villagers volition spawn if a player uses a splash potion of weakness on a v1 zombie villager in template world and and then feeds information technology a regular aureate apple. Information technology will so shake and turn into a villager within 0-5 minutes. During the change, the zombie villager can still burn in the sun.

Drops [ ]

Villagers drop nothing upon death.

Trade: 3–6 Merchandise while willing: viii–11

Beliefs [ ]

Movement patterns [ ]

Upon spawning, villagers volition go out their homes and begin to explore the hamlet. Generally, they wander frantically inside the hamlet during the day. They may go indoors or outdoors, and they periodically make mumbling sounds. Occasionally, two villagers may stop and turn to wait at each other, in a behavior called socializing, in which they will stare at another villager for iv-5 seconds at a time. In the case of players, they volition continuously stare at them every bit long as the player is shut enough, unless the villager tries to get into a house at dark, subcontract food, or flee from a zombie.

In Legacy Console Edition, when a player attacks a villager, the villager will not run away, but anger particles will fly out from the villager if it is in a hamlet. In Bedrock Edition, villagers do non stop continuously in front of players. They will also dart away if the thespian attacks them.

Villagers, similar other mobs, will find paths around obstructions, avoiding walking off cliffs and some blocks that cause harm. However, in crowded situations information technology is possible for 1 villager to push another off a cliff or into damage. Villagers as well occasionally walk off of ledges high enough to cause fall impairment.

At night or during rain, villagers will run within, closing doors behind them, and staying indoors until morning. In the morning they volition head outside and resume normal behavior.

Villagers will run away from zombies, illagers and vexes within 8 blocks.

If a villager finds itself outside the village boundary, or a villager without a village detects a hamlet boundary within 32 blocks, it will move quickly back within the boundary. A villager taken more than than 32 blocks abroad from its village boundary will forget the village inside about 6 seconds. Whether in a village or not, a villager is never decumbent to despawning.

Villagers cannot open trapdoors, fence gates, or fe doors.

There is evidence that villagers are prone to overcrowding certain areas of a village while leaving other areas completely empty. When moving inside, the AI prefers doors within 16 blocks (Euclidean altitude). It also tends to prefer doors with fewer villagers nearby, however "nearby" in this instance is only 1.five blocks and, when moving inside, villagers adopt to motion ii.5 blocks inside when the within is to the southward or east and therefore will exist out of range of this bank check. During the day, it has been observed that villagers will tend to cluster near a trapped villager or whatsoever existing large cluster of villagers, likely due to the "socialize" AI routine overriding their inclination to wander.

Picking up items [ ]

Villagers have eight hidden inventory slots, which outset empty whenever the villager is spawned. Villagers will not intentionally seek out items to pick upwards, but they volition collect whatsoever breadstuff, carrots, potatoes, wheat, seeds, beetroot and beetroot seeds they happen to come up within range of. These are the only items they are able to pick up, though the player may use the /replaceitem command to put an arbitrary item into a villager'south inventory. If a player and a villager are in the pickup range of an item at the same time, the player will always pick it up first.

Even when gamerule keepInventory is gear up to false, villagers that are killed with any of the available items above will not drop them in one case they are killed.

Any items in these slots are lost if a villager becomes a zombie villager; a zombie villager has no inventory slots.

If /gamerule mobGriefing is faux, villagers will not pick up items.

A dispenser can be used, if adjacent to a villager, to place armor on it. While not visible in most cases (other than pumpkins and mob heads) the equipment will be fully functional; for example, the Thorns enchantment will hurt zombies that attack a villager with a piece of armor enchanted with the Thorns enchantment equipped.

Sharing food [ ]

If a villager has plenty food in one inventory stack (6 bread or 24 carrots, potatoes, beetroots, or 18 wheat for farmers simply) and sees a villager without enough food in i inventory stack (3 breadstuff or 12 carrots, potatoes or beetroot for non-Farmers; xv bread, 60 carrots, potatoes, or beetroot, or 45 wheat for Farmers), the villager may decide to share nutrient with that villager.

To share, a villager finds his start inventory stack with at least four bread, carrots, potatoes, or beetroot or with at least 6 wheat, and then throws half the stack (rounded down) in the direction of the target villager. When wheat is shared, it is first crafted to bread which may result in 1 or 2 less than one-half the stack being shared.

Farming [ ]

Adult and infant dark-brown-robed villagers, both farmers and other careers, will tend crops within the village purlieus. Villagers far enough exterior the boundary of any village will also tend nearby crops.

Farmland to be tended is constitute by seeking for sure blocks up to xv blocks away from the villager in 10 and Z and up to 1 away in Y (a 31×31×3 area total).

If a brown-robed villager does not accept plenty nutrient in one stack in its inventory (15 breadstuff, 60 carrots, potatoes, or beetroot, or 45 wheat) and finds fully-grown wheat, carrots, potatoes or beetroot, it will movement to the crop block and break it.
If a brown-robed villager has any seeds, carrots, potatoes, or beetroot seeds in its inventory and finds an air cake in a higher place farmland, it will move to it and plant a ingather. They will always found from the outset eligible slot in their inventory.
If /gamerule mobGriefing is imitation, villagers will not be able to farm.

Baby villager behavior [ ]

A group of villager children playing a game of tag.

Baby villagers will sprint effectually, entering and leaving houses at will. They volition sometimes stop sprinting to stare at an Iron Golem. If the Iron Golem is belongings a poppy, the children will cautiously have the flower from its hands. They tend to group and hunt one another around the hamlet equally if playing tag. They also honey to jump on beds!

Baby Villagers in Boulder/Legacy Console Editions accept a slightly bigger caput than in the Java Edition, this also can be seen in different baby mobs in the game every bit well.

Unlike other breed-able mobs, the parents and child have no personal interactions other than socializing.

Zombies [ ]

Zombies volition effort to find and assault villagers inside a 42 block radius (fifty-fifty when the villager is invisible), and will effort to break down doors. Zombies will only successfully break doors if the difficulty is set to hard, though only a fraction of zombies spawned in hard mode have the capacity to break doors. This also applies to zombie pigmen if they path find through a door. Villagers will run away from zombies, sometimes hiding in houses. The villager's only "natural" defense are the fe golems, which attack nearby hostile mobs.

Zombies will try to kill villagers, or convert them to v1 zombie villagers. The chance that the villager volition become a zombie villager on death is 0% on Easy, 50% on Normal, and 100% on Hard. Baby villagers tin can exist infected by zombies likewise.

Villagers will also run from zombie pigmen, though the latter will non attack them.

Drowned will chase and attack villagers in the aforementioned way zombies volition, and villagers volition run from drowned in the same way they run from zombies. Drowned can besides convert villagers to zombie villagers, even when attacking from a altitude with a trident.

Lightning [ ]

When lightning strikes within 3–4 blocks of a villager, it volition plough into a witch.

Convenance [ ]

Villagers will mate depending on the number of valid doors. If "willing" (see beneath), villagers will mate as long as the population is less than 35% (Boulder Edition: 100%) of valid doors, rounded downwards. The blazon of villager that spawns is independent of the villager'due south parents.

A valid door is whatsoever door within the village radius where the number of "outside" spaces within 5 blocks in a straight line on one side of the door is not the same as the number of "outside" spaces within 5 blocks on the other side of the door. A space is considered to be "outside" if it has zippo but transparent blocks above it all the mode to the sky.

A census is periodically taken to make up one's mind the electric current population of the hamlet. All villagers within the horizontal boundary of the village and within five vertical blocks (Bedrock Edition: no apparent height limit) of the center will exist counted as part of the population to make up one's mind if continued villager mating is allowed. However, whatever villager within the horizontal boundary of the village and inside the spherical purlieus of the hamlet will attempt to enter mating mode as long as there is at least i villager within the boundary. If two villagers simultaneously enter mating manner while they are close to i another, they volition mate with each other and produce a kid.

Willingness [ ]

Additionally, villagers must be "willing" in society to breed. Afterward mating, they will no longer exist willing, and must be made willing again.

Villagers can go willing by having either three bread, 12 carrots, 12 potatoes, or 12 beetroots in 1 stack in their inventory. Any villager with an backlog of food (usually farmers) will throw nutrient to other villagers, assuasive them to choice it up and obtain enough nutrient to become willing. The player can besides throw bread, carrots, beetroots, or potatoes at the villagers themselves to encourage breeding. Villagers volition consume the required food upon becoming willing.

Villagers may also go willing when the player trades with them. Willingness is granted the showtime time a new offer is traded, or at a one-in-five chance on subsequent trades. Most of the fourth dimension, villagers becomes willing later the second or tertiary merchandise. Greenish particles will appear if the villager becomes willing by trading. This volition non crusade them to immediately seek out a mate, however.

Earlier Java Edition 1.8, willingness was not implemented. The only cistron needed is enough valid doors.

Professions and careers [ ]

Each villager has a profession, which tin be identified past their clothing. Villagers besides accept careers specific to their profession. The actor tin identify a villager's career past reading the title at the tiptop of the trading interface.

Below is a table listing the diverse villagers, with their careers in relation to their professions, likewise as the IDs specifying these. While each profession has a one in half dozen risk (16.67%) of occurring, the probabilities for individual careers to occur are more diversified. They are listed in the tabular array as well.

Profession	Profession ID	Career	Career ID	Probability	Combined Probability
Farmer	0	Farmer	1	¹⁄₂₄ (4.17%)	^one⁄_vi (16.67%)
		Fisherman	2	¹⁄₂₄ (4.17%)
		Shepherd	3	^ane⁄₂₄ (four.17%)
		Fletcher	4	^one⁄₂₄ (four.17%)
Librarian	ane	Librarian	1	¹⁄₁₂ (viii.33%)	ⁱ⁄_half-dozen (16.67%)
Librarian	ane	Cartographer	2	¹⁄₁₂ (8.33%)	ⁱ⁄_half-dozen (16.67%)
Priest/Cleric	2	Cleric	1	ⁱ⁄₆ (16.67%)	¹⁄₆ (16.67%)
Blacksmith	3	Armorer	i	^one⁄₁₈ (5.56%)	¹⁄_{half dozen} (sixteen.67%)

Nitwit	v	Nitwit	i	¹⁄_vi (16.67%)	¹⁄₆ (16.67%)

When a villager is transformed into a zombie villager, the profession of the zombie villager will remain unchanged. However, the career volition be reset and randomly picked once more if the zombie villager is cured, allowing for the role player to get a villager with a new career and new trade offers. Old trade offers volition disappear, even if the same career is chosen again.

Nitwit [ ]

	"	It started considering players could summon villagers without a career by using commands: it was the only way to get villagers with dark-green robes. Whenever we discover we take a problems which is used past the community we just see it equally 'undefined behaviour' - and 'fix' it by making it a characteristic. In this instance nosotros just needed a profession for the green-robed villager. I don't remember what name we came up with start - I remember it was 'unemployed' or something, but it doesn't actually fit in the world, because I don't really recall the other villagers are employed by anyone either. Then I retrieve the next proposition was 'village idiot' but I idea 'nitwit' was a more fun proper noun.	„
		— Jeb about the Nitwit^[1]

The Nitwit villager is a villager that wears a light-green robe and cannot be traded with.

Trading [ ]

	"	Right click on a villager and you can trade with them, offering them emeralds in exchange for improve equipment, maps to notable treasures or food. Unless y'all are trying to trade with a nitwit, of course, in which instance y'all're going to get squat. Who's the nitwit now?	„
		— Marsh Davies^[2]

The trading system is a gameplay mechanic that allows players to merchandise emeralds for items and vice-versa with villagers.Their trades can be good or bad, depending on what the cost is and what items you lot might go. Trading is only available for adult villagers; the histrion cannot merchandise with infant villagers or the nitwit villager.

Right-clicking a villager will allow a histrion to trade with them, and brandish their career. Villagers will make offers based on their profession and career, and will only make trades based on whatever offers they are making. Unlike offers may exist viewed by pressing the left and correct buttons side by side to the currently displayed offer. All offers involve emerald every bit a currency, and some item pertinent to the villager's profession and career. Trading allows the conquering of rare items that would otherwise exist fairly difficult to obtain, such as chain armor. The trading mechanic allows players to get bottle o' enchanting in survival mode. When villagers get a new trade, pink particles and dark-green cross particles appear.

After trading a new offer once, the villager will let a new tier of offers. After 2-12 times an offering is repeated, the villager will lock the trade offer. That is, the villager volition no longer offering this trade. When this happens, the histrion will accept to use some other new merchandise offering in the villager's window once (or several times if it is already used once), and and so wait for a short time. If dark-green particles announced, all trades unlock. That is, the villager will start offering all trades. There is a maximum number of tiers each villager can possess, varying past career. One time the villager has unlocked all tiers, information technology will not open any new ones. However, players will nevertheless be able to renew all offers by trading.

Regeneration [ ]

When a villager gives off particles from a new merchandise, they get x seconds of regeneration I, which gives them 4 .

Commands or external editors tin help villagers go new trades.

If a villager unintentionally picks upwardly certain seeds or crops, information technology will throw it to some other villager to simulate trading between the villagers.

April fools [ ]

On April 1, 2014, Mojang announced that villagers have taken over the skin servers and content delivery networks (CDN) as an April Fools joke. This acquired players' current skin to turn into villager skins. This also caused users to be unable to alter their skins. Different career villager skins were used, including the then-unused nitwit villager (greenish robe).

Many of the sounds were too changed, supposedly by the villagers. They seem to be similar to a villager talking (with words, rather than their normal sounds). The in-game music has also been altered to include villager like noises, and also features a villager version of the "Game of Thrones" theme on the championship screen. The sounds originate from the audio resource pack created by Element Animation, titled The Chemical element Blitheness Villager Sound Resource Pack (T.E.A.V.S.R.P), which is based on the villagers appearing in their fan videos. The villagers were voiced past Dan Lloyd, Director of Element Animation.
