About this Mod

Highly recommended with Mod Menu

Allows you to configure everything: patrol group sizes, spawn frequency, detection ranges, and spawn distances.

Patrols no longer care about villages or light levels — they'll hunt you anywhere. Increase the radius pillagers spread across, fine-tune how far they need to be to provoke, and push them further from your position. Make your world feel more dangerous.

All settings are configurable in-game via Mod Menu for quick tweaking without restarting.

Also pairs nicely with my other mod: Point Blank Pillagers

NOTE: SETTING THE TICK RATES TO 0 AND/OR CRANKING THE GROUP SIZE ALL THE WAY UP WILL FLOOD YOUR WORLD WITH PILLAGERS CAUSING SEVERE LAG. PLEASE USE THIS MOD CAREFULLY.
