EASY Ways To Defend A 1.14 Minecraft Village 

10:18 that one villager dodge the arrow like a boss

- Did you defend it - yes - what did it cost? - stacks of dirt blocks

10:18 THAT VILLAGER HAS GOT SERIOUS FINESSE SKILLS HE AVOIDED LIKE 7 ARROWS AT ONCE

Grian: Easy ways to protect a 1.14 village Me: Ring the bell and block the doors

When i first walked into the berry bush i had no idea what was hurting me

Wall: *exists* Grian: *_"it needs to be fabulous"_*

10:11 This is actually negated, because in an actual raid, the villagers would be hunkered down in their houses, where pillagers can’t shoot at them. So a trench is a perfect defense, except for the few straggling villagers.

This is one of the few Grian vids I had forgotten to watch and I’m surprised I’ve only seen this now. I was so caught off guard when he called bamboo and sweet berries “new.” Gosh, they feel so old at this point

10:18 Villager learns how to dodge after getting hit by multiple arrows.

Grian: “building a trench will take a long time!” Also Grian: Builds exquisite wall around village

8:30 “They walk straight down” Me: _more like graciously twirls straight down_

10:29 Grian: *Holds out a sword* Wandering Trader: *GAS GAS GAS IM GONNA STEP UP THE GAS*

Me: *builds wall* Pillagers: *spawns inside the village* Walls: are we a joke to you?

2016: burning down villages for fun 2019: saving villages any way you can

Me: tries making one of grians designs Pillagers: spawns inside the village Me: 👁👄👁

*When u realise that u cant get back in the village without dying after making the walls in survival..*

Grian: **makes complex defence systems** Me: **places fences on the villages border**

Grian: "what are y-" Wandering trader: " I AM SPEED"

*You gotta love how Grian talks like we’re not just gonna steal everything the village has to offer before running away cause Minecraft players hate responsibility*

How to defend a Village: Lock the Villagers in their houses, build a tower and shoot them with your bow.

Ravager: I fear no man, but that thing.. *bamboo* Ravager: It scares me.

10:19 THAT VILLAGER IS A BOSS, he dodged the arrows.

I remember when I used to build massive glasses as walls and spawn twenty iron golems to protect my peaceful villagers lol Thanxx for the tutorial! Gonna use this one 8:46

Grian: Iron golem spawning is very, very expensive. Iron farms: Am I a joke to you?

7:15 I was devastated when he didn't replace the block

Grian: *spawns pillagers* Golem: *kills pillagers* Grian: *spawns more* Golem: am i a joke to you

Me: *Does all of these* Also me: Finally. My work is finally do- Evoker: *Spawns in vex’s* Me: 👁👄👁

You know ‘the trench’? Add some water and they wont be able to get out and will possibly drown. (It holds them down - when you combine magma blocks and water.)

10:15 Grian: *Explaining* Villager: *Matrix dodging*

2009: *Plants vs Zombies* 2019: *Plants vs Pillagers*

1st one: “okay so the problem is that the ravenger doesn’t care at all”

2 block high dirt wall: exists Pillagers: understandable, have a great day

*Pillagers attacking villagers* *Me turning on peaceful mode* Modern Problems Require Modern Solutions

Me: play Minecraft again after 4 years and stay in a village* Me: getting massive raid* Me: *WTF is happening*

Grian: there just walking straight down Ravenger: oh hell no !

Everyone: *I must try this, its 99.9% safe!* me: "ever heard of that 00.1% Chance where monsters spawn inside the village that turns out to be a higher percentage than you thought"

10:18 Can we just appreciate how that villager dodged all those arrows?

3:57 The pillagers: hey ravager pls destroy the bamboo so we can Raid the village Ravager: *no, i don't think i Will*

The best way I defend my village is a 3 block tall cobblestone wall with magma blocks on the outside. Works well tbh mobs like pillagers take a hit and drop loot (unlike lava or netherack on fire which i had before) and as for the ravages once all the other pillagers are dead I just equip my sword and mash dem up, (or you can use a trident with loyalty or a bow or something).

10:46 Nobody: Grian: *murders someone* Also Grian: *chuckles*

“And talking about raids...” “today's video is sponsored”

You should do a video on how to fix broken villages (like where they’re smashed against a mountain, inside a ravine, or with a river going through it)

Grian: with this wall of hurt No raid can get thrue Evoker: am I a Joke to you

I think a wall will always be my go to. It's effective on keeping them out, you get the satisfaction of killing them from above, and looks great too!

*bamboo and sweetberries defence* -I preffer the original. *lava* -I said the original. *iron golems* -*PERFECTION*

“So make sure you torch up your village first so monsters don’t spawn” Me: *Grabs flint and steel*

So in the end we found out, its the most fun to fight yourself! Protip to safe your villagers with the effort of one second time and a single stoneblock... just put a stoneblock infront of the doors at night

Another intelligent trap is by placing Carpets on top of Magma blocks, mobs will actually be stupid enough to think that they’re just regular carpets.

*two blocks of dirt* Grian: a simple spell but quite unbreakable

Using bamboo as a wall defence system? VIETNAM FLASHBACKS INTENSIFIES

9:24 Gerald?! What they have done to you!? Seems like you aren't able to hunt monsters anymore...

With the trench idea, you could use open trapdoors because the pillagers think they can walk across it because they think it's closed, but it can just drop them into magma.

Alternate Title: how to play plants vs zombies in Minecraft

My tactic: -hide two villagers -let the others die -the pillagers die because of me -I breed them back, it's technically the same village

For the trench, add trap doors on the outers where the pillagers will come, they will think a trap door is a block

I can't believe that it has been FOUR YEARS since this was made! I remember being super excited when I saw this and made it straight away. Amazing defence :)

"Next up is a trench." Some great war veterans: "Interesting."

*No villaging = no pillaging* *modern problems require modern solutions*

0:48 “Hello perkins” Perkins: I don’t have a job… “Nice to see you”

Grian- Flyes and reaches quick Wandering trader- You wanna get fast? Then let's get fast. Grian- The hard way, it is.

Grian: can i copy your homework? Vietnam soldiers: sure but change some things here and there so no one knows.

Grian: It's very important to light up you village, or it won't even survive the night! Lighting glitch: I'm about to ruin this man's whole career

Thanks Brian I'm going to use these ideas in a build 😊

7:35 you can add trapdoors on the sides as pillagers will see them as full blocks so they will walk right in, it could work with buttons but overall, it may not work but i think its worth a try

10:19 Pillagers: *Shoot the Villager* Villager: *Dodge all arrows* *Villager: Amateurs*

Me: How do we keep this village safe? Grian: *T O R C H I T U P*

For the 2 block of dirt, you can save time and remove the bottom block of the dirt wall and it’s still the same.

Grain: Nice to see you! Perkins: *shakes head no* Me: lol same

"Defending a Minecraft village is actually pretty simple" *takes an hour to defeat a raid on hermitcraft*

10:18 that villager has ninja skills!!

I love how the traveling Trader was actually running so fast 💨

The first time I play Minecraft I thought that Iron golems have egg spawn, I was so innocent 😇

Pillagers: **exists** Peaceful Mode: *_i’m about to end this raid’s career_*

Grian:plants vs pillagers Zombies:are we a joke to you

A moat built with mob grinding in mind, your base becomes an effective mob trap.

Wow it's actually pretty good, i will try it thanks

Iron Golem: **fighting to dead** Grian: **takes the last kill and becomes the hero**

4:12 Pillagers: Help us! We're stuck! Ravager: *doesn't care, ignores them, and later walks away*

Another really good one is using cacti 3deep and a zigzag pattern all the way around your base and then put torches in between all of the cacti and when mobs see you they'll run into the cacti and get hurt you can also harvest cacti and put the blocks on top of existing ones to make them really tall and even if mobs spawn on the top if they're super high they'll fall and receive a lot of fall damage and die that way cacti is really good

for the trench you can also place trapdoors, they will think its a block and walk right down, i just a made a 2 by 2 space around my village and whenever a raid starts i lock my villagers in their homes, they die to fall damage and i sit on my tower and snipe the ravagers, also the evokers don't spawn vexes because i am to far always (in a tower sniping ravagers) and they dont have a sight line to the villagers, therefore i trun raids into free item drops xd

Engage all defences. _And Get This Man a Shield._

Pillager:Raid Time! Me (while building Berlin Wall with all details): Bruh

I swear today before I watched this video I made a dirt wall around a large village ,when you mentioned this method I felt so dang proud of myself 😅😅😅😅😅

Cool tip if you have a lot of saplings just plant then around the village pretty cool style and well protected

7:20 Grian: It will take hour and hour Xisuma: BEACON

Villager at 10:18 “I am inevitable” (Doges a thousand arrows)

11:00 me and my friends made this huge coblestone wall but there were places to stand and attack back. very useful

If you make a small pod of netherrack with the top blocks removed, you can put in a snow golem and light flames around it, Then the snowballs thrown will catch fire and set monsters ablaze.

Pillagers: "We are inevitable." Iron Golems: "We are Iron Men." *Pillagers collapse into puffs of smoke."

Grian:use every dam thing like nature,magma blocks,etc Fence:am i. a joke to You

The wall of dirt would prob be best for a first thing to do so that you have enough time to do further and way better defenses that atcually kill enemies.

Walls + Iron Golems in the floor outside + inner trench + main village golems

10:19 “ULTRA INSTINCT VILLAGER”

Wandering trader: you wanna see some real speed

For flatland villages just get cobble or grass. For the entrance use a trapdoor because entities think it’s a full block, on the bottom use sweet berry bushes, the use repeaters and red stone for better defenses

if anyone in a season of xlife manages to get their hands on bamboo, the bamboo and berry wall might be a good combination for slowing down people walking in, alerting someone to people trying to cut it down to get in, or slowing down arrows from the outside

"The Bamboo method/Plants vs. Pillagers" Pros: It stopped the Pillagers -.Cons.- _Pros:_ *Panda Infestation*

Grian: builds a giant magma block trench around a village Also Grian: *builds a dirt wall 2 blocks high*

Dig out a t shape trench, fill with magma and top with water, works just as well as the large trench. Water sucks the mobs into the magma
