Talk:Raid captain

Can witches be a captain?
Witches have the PatrolLeader + Patrolling tag, but can they naturally spawn as one without modifying their data? Noeuahi (talk) 20:30, 20 January 2019 (UTC)

They cannot since they don't spawn as part of a patrol and do not spawn as captains in raids 104.34.226.124 21:22, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

Rename to Raid captain
I think the page (and all references to it) should be moved/renamed to "Raid captain", as that's what the upcoming advancement Voluntary Exile calls them. --Robotkoer (talk) 15:33, 12 April 2019 (UTC)

is this okay, but what if the captains were guarded by four pillagers or vindicators. also, if the mob is a evoker, can it be also guarded by a second layer of vexes. and i'm sorry if this makes you unhappy, but i think that vindicators should rarely spawn as captains in raids, but evokers should most commonly spawn.( hard, hardcore LV5 and above raids) the reason why witches are not fit for raids is because they are overpowered. with many potions, this might make the game too hard and cause people to quit playing (permanently). this change [no witches in raids LV5 and under, normal, peaceful( obviously) easy mode,and more} could make minecraft popular again. but there really should be a button called evokers and witches span in raids in the world creation menu ( the decision between yes and no is permanent. 98.110.16.94 00:29, 28 April 2019 (UTC)

While I'm apparently too late, this naming convention (no matter how well it may fit with the in-game text on an advancement) is highly confusing, because raid captains are not part of the raid, but of patrols. Prepare to get many edits of people who don't see the "not to be confused with raid" note that the top of the Patrol page. RealWormbo (talk) 05:55, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

Is there a slot, such as an armour or hand, that the banner is equipped to?
It seems like there would be one. --FrostyFox343 (talk) 18:11, 12 October 2019 (UTC)

"Usually, 1–3 pillager raid captains also spawn in a pillager outpost. "
Since illagers keep spawning on and around the outpost, as long as conditions are met, that doesn't really make sense to me. I'd expect something like "illagers spawning around outposts have an x % propability to spawn as captains" or similar, if applicable. 89.14.232.32 23:46, 19 October 2019 (UTC)
