How it Works
Resetting a Villager’s Profession
Shift(Sneak) + Right-Click on any villager (including Nitwits) while holding the wand to reset their profession instantly — even if they’ve locked trades.
Note: Each use consumes 1 durability. The wand can be used 32 times before it breaks.
Villager Follow Mode
Right-Click in the air while holding the wand to toggle Follow Mode. When enabled, nearby villagers will follow you like tamed pets. Right-click again to disable.
Note: Toggling Follow Mode does not consume durability — only profession resets use durability.

Note: Freezing or unfreezing villagers does not consume durability.
