Making a Pillagerâs Crossbow Break: An Experiment
Hi Mineblr, Karp here. So I heard that a Pillagerâs crossbow could break, and then theyâd just hold their arms out and become passive. Iâve heard stories! Seen screenshots! But I wanna see it for myself! So letâs hit up the nearest outpost!
âŹHere we have captured our Pillager (plus one cow). Their friends came over a few times to see what was up, so I had to move them farther away. Now comes the part where I dodge and block all their arrows for days until the bow breaks.
âŹDay 2, Iâve devised a system to help me NOT get shot as much, works pretty well
âŹDay 3, Iâve improved the system and- oh?? The Pillager has stopped shootingâŠ
âŹUM- o-okay so it finally broke but um- Okay you know maybe itâs just a glitch because theyâre in the boat if I get them out Iâm sure itâll be
âŹOH GOD OH F*CK S*IT NO OH GOODNESS
âŹIâve momentarily gone creative so I could get a temporary nametag on the now armless Pillager (thereâs NO way Iâm loosing them) because I forgot to bring one. Iâll give them a better name later.
âŹI tried to exit and re enter the game in hopes that the Pillagerâs arms would return to us, sadly that is not what happened, they are still armless. However the rumors hold true. The Pillager, despite their situation, is not hostile towards me and just roams around.Â
This experiment has been somewhat of a success. It seems that the Pillager got so tired of shooting that their arms, literally, could fall off. I might bring them back to my base and build them a house there, or maybe make them a house here? I havenât decided yet.
