Village Guards

Villages in Minecraft Pocket Edition are typically quite vulnerable, as iron golems only spawn in larger villages, leaving smaller ones defenseless against monsters. The Village Guards addon changes everything. Once you install the Village Guards addon, protective villagers will spawn in MCPE villages to defend the inhabitants from hostile mobs.

How Does It Work?

The village guardian villagers replace the wither skeletons, and now you can find them in MCPE villages. These guards carry iron swords and wear chainmail armor. They have stern expressions, so it’s best not to provoke them, or you might regret it.

If a guard spots any potential threat approaching the village, they will take action. For instance, if a spider approaches without aggression, the moment the guard sees it, they will immediately attack.

Guardian villagers are especially useful at night, ensuring that no hostile mob sets foot in your village or home territory. Place these guardians around your house for peace of mind. Zombies, skeletons, creepers, and other mobs will be attacked and eliminated by the villagers.

If you can’t find enough guardian villagers or want more, you can train regular villagers by giving them an iron sword. Long press on a villager to bring up the button, then tap it to hand over the sword.

• Chance to spawn a swordsman: 65%
• Chance to spawn an archer: 35%

You can change the weapon of the guard by providing them with new equipment. Currently, you can give them an iron sword or a bow.

Guards can be utilized to protect your home, village, or secret base. You can also use a wither skeleton egg to spawn a guardian villager.
