Fortify Your Minecraft Village with Guard Villagers Mod
The World Tools Mod, in Minecraft, introduces a novel layer of security to your game’s naturally occurring villages. Upon installation, villagers are automatically upgraded to include a new contingent of protectors, regardless of whether you’re venturing into a new world, revisiting past saves, or exploring uncharted villages. These sentinels, numbering six per village, are easily distinguishable by their unique attire and come armed with iron swords or crossbows, ready to defend their home.
Building Trust with the Village Protectors
These vigilant guards operate on a strict watch, safeguarding their territory as iron golems would. To gain their trust, you must navigate village interactions with care, as these guards can influence your standing with the villagers. Establishing a solid reputation is key, and trading with villagers remains essential. However, to engage with unrecruited guards, you’ll need to earn the ‘Hero of the Village’ title first.
Enhancing Guard Capabilities
Once you’ve achieved ‘Hero of the Village’ status, you can interact with guards to upgrade their gear. A familiar trading interface allows you to equip them with superior weapons, shields, and armor, bolstering their ability to protect the village—and you.
Self-Sufficient Defenders
Guard villagers can also be self-sustaining. By placing food or potions in their offhand slot, they can heal themselves when their health dwindles, ensuring their longevity in the absence of your immediate aid.
Recruiting Your Personal Guard
Creating a guard villager is as simple as crouching and right-clicking an unemployed villager with a sword or crossbow. This instant transformation allows you to access their inventory without the need for a ‘Hero of the Village’ achievement or positive village reputation.
Strategic Patrol Assignments
Guard villagers can be set to patrol specific areas, with melee guards actively seeking out threats and ranged guards taking a sniper’s stance to protect the village from afar. This strategic element allows you to customize your village’s defense plan to your liking.
Empowering Village Defense
The Guard Villagers mod significantly enhances village defenses, complementing the existing iron golems. With the freedom to recruit and arm guards as needed, you can focus on further developing the villages you encounter, ensuring their safety and prosperity.
