Minecraft Dungeons:Vindicator Chef

"ILLAGER CHEFS – Near the buffet tables, you will see Illagers garbed in chef outfits and brandishing spatulas. They do not appreciate unwanted guests at the banquet. It should only take one or two swift hits with a melee weapon to finish them off. Spatulas do not make for great weapons."
