Talk:Patrol

Captain or leader?
Is the banner-wearing illager called the patrol captain or the patrol leader? Mojang seems to be alternating terminology. – Nixinova   21:56, 16 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Well, I never heard of a "patrol captain" in real life. That just seems awkward, like "patrol chief". It's always "patrol leader". I think we should pick one and be consistent. ~ Amatulic (talk) 00:22, 18 December 2018 (UTC)

Bad open "levels"
If the Bad Open has 1-3 levels as stated in the article, what do the levels do? Trigger different size raids? Do the levels stack, if you happen to kill another patrol leader before a previous effect wears off? ~ Amatulic (talk) 23:54, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Each bad o m en level adds to waves to the raid. So Bad Omen V will have 5×2 waves of illagers attacking the village. I'm not sure about the stacking. – Nixinova Nixinova sig image 1.png Nixinova sig image 2.png 00:13, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks. I added a generic sentence to that effect just now. ~ Amatulic (talk) 01:51, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

Now, according to the decompiled code, the behavior on java now is pretty much the behavior on bedrock. I hope another editor or director can take a look and confirm before this change.

Moreover, it appears in code that illager patrols won't spawn on superflats. liach (talk) 10:24, 4 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Maybe, that in some superflat world. i play on bedrock and illager patrol still spawn in flat world.
 * One of correct biome which illager patrol can spawn is plains which is default biome in classic flat.(the only available superflat preset in bedrock) ImakerB (talk) 11:28, 4 April 2019 (UTC)


 * I am talking about Java Edition. The chunk generator for superflat in Java does not include a patrol spawner while the regular chunk generator does. liach (talk) 01:32, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
