How to find and kill a ravager in Minecraft – Easy Steps

A Ravager is one of the most powerful bossless mobs you’ll find in Minecraft. It is difficult to kill with a health of 100 points. His speed matches that of a player, which means he cannot be beat. It can also destroy a wide range of blocks, making most of them a poor block to hide or take refuge behind. Killing a Ravager, while difficult, gives you a lot of experience and, if you’re lucky, a saddle.

Devastator in Minecraft

A ravager is a large mob, like a bison / rhino / triceratops. It is not easy to find, as it only spawns during the third wave of a village raid. To find a devastator, a player must;

• Find an Illager captain and kill him or have a tamed wolf kill him.
• Enter a village after killing an Illager captain.
• Wait for the raid to start
• Survive the raid until Wave 3, which is when up to 5 Ravagers will spawn.

Find the captain of Illager

An Illager captain will appear in an Illager mob. You can find them in the following places;

• An Illager patrol that has appeared. They tend to spawn after 5 days have passed in the overworld, but they are rare.
• Looter Stalls
• Wooded mansions

Of the three above, a looter position is the easiest to find. It’s a rare structure, but a Woodland mansion is rarer than an outpost. An Illager captain is identified by the banner he carries. When you, or a tamed wolf, kill them, you gain the “Bad Omen” effect.

Once you have the Bad Omen effect, you can enter a village and it will start a raid.

Kill the devastator

After you have started a raid, you must fight it and wait for the third wave of mobs to appear. It is in this wave that the Ravagers will appear.

To kill a Ravager, you can use all kinds of techniques, but two common methods are;

1. Dig down so that you have a hole in the ground. The Ravager won’t be able to catch you, but you can jump up and hit him with a sword or any other weapon.
2. Create a raised platform that you can climb onto. You can also climb a tree, as a devastator will not be able to destroy it. Once he’s close, you can use a ranged weapon like a bow or crossbow or pitchforks to kill him.

Killing strategy

Ravagers will only appear in one raid, which means you can plan ahead. Once you’ve found an Illager Outpost, search for the nearest town. Set up the structures that you will need to be successful in the raid. Enter the outpost only after everything is set up and kill Illager’s captain. Knowing where the nearest village is will ensure you reach it, and the raid begins before Bad Omen’s effect wears off (lasts 1 hour 40 minutes, so no rush).

conclusion

A Ravager spawns during the third wave of a raid, but a raid can have multiple waves. If you continue to kill other Illager captains you encounter in a raid, you will extend the raid. If your goal is to kill a Ravager, read up on the mechanics of a raid so that you can use it to your advantage.
