Crafting the Villager Attractor

The Villager Attractor is crafted with a shaped recipe at a crafting table, just like the animal attractors (Chicken Attractor, Cow Attractor, Pig Attractor, Sheep Attractor). Gather the required ingredients and arrange them in the correct pattern to produce the item.

Using It to Move Villagers

Hold the Villager Attractor and approach villagers. The attractor draws them toward you, letting you guide them from one place to another instead of pushing them block by block.

Practical uses:

  • Lead villagers from a village into a walled settlement or trading hall.
  • Move villagers toward a specific building or room.
  • Gather wandering villagers back into a central area.

Walk at a steady pace so the villagers keep following. Prepare the destination first: open gates, clear a path, and make sure the target area is enclosed so villagers do not scatter once you stop. When moving villagers across long distances, pause occasionally to let them catch up. If you are also relocating animals, keep the Villager Attractor separate from the animal attractors so you do not mix up which item you are holding while leading each group.
