Raid farming is a means to obtain items dropped by raid mobs (pillagers, vindicators, witches, evokers, and ravagers), as well as special items dropped by these mobs during raids:[Bedrock Edition only] emeralds, enchanted books, iron tools, and iron armor (of which half has enchantments).
Mechanics
Broadly the components of a raid farm are:
- a village (1 bed and 1 villager are sufficient)
- a surface on which the raid is forced to spawn (the ground, or an isolated surface above)
- a way to funnel or guide the raid mobs
- a killing area; that is, mob grinder to kill the mobs, or a holding area for the player to kill them and earn experience as well as loot.
- a pillager outpost converted to a pillager trap to allow the player to kill pillager captains that spawn in the outpost, thereby gaining the Bad Omen effect to trigger raids.
Suggestions
Try building an artificial village above an outpost and then using a water stream elevator to bring the pillager up into an AFK area in the village.
