HOW To Move Villagers | The BEST Ways | Minecraft Keeping It Simple

Hey everyone, Prowl here and welcome to Keeping it Simple, a tutorial series targeted to show you how things are done. Today’s tutorial is showing off some of the best ways to move villagers around in Minecraft. Villagers can be really difficult to move around, and different methods may work better for different situations, so today, we will go over what I think are the top ones, and demonstrate how to do them.

I literally built a 560 block long, 2 block wide river going to my base just to transport 2 villagers and one of them died when I broke the boat. Villagers make that uninstall tab look pretty good ngl

Imagine the world if you could put villagers on leads

[KRO-]

Ahh villagers. So useful, yet so frustrating. 😂

Timestamps (worst to best)

0:38 Pushing (unrealiable, not for long distances)
1:32 Boats (slow without water, can't go uphill)
2:40 Boat with lead (Faster but you can't go too far ahead, no uphill)
3:10 Boat, lead, bucket of water (faster but you can't go too far ahead)
4:32 Minecart (fast, need rails and other supplies)
7:27 Zombie Villagers (dangerous, endgame supplies, medium or hard mode)

You can also go up with leads on boats by going 2 blocks taller than the boat, and repeatedly jumping. When the boat rises to the desired altittude, just walk backwards. For me, this is the best way of moving villagers without using too many resources

I actually have found an easier way to transport villagers using blocks that give villagers work. When a blank villager has no work, it searches for a work block to walk up to and change into that work type villager

So what you can do is

Step 1: break the work block which will remove the ownership of any villager that owns it already.
Step 2: place it a short distance away from the villager your trying to transport but place the block in the direction where your taking the villager to
Step 3: the villager with no work will move towards that block and get the job from that block
Step 4: And repeat from step 1 until you reach the destination!

Another idea: if you need to get a bunch of villagers across water; instead of doing one by one you can shove a bunch in boats, lead the boats to the water, hop in another boat, and now you got a boat train of villagers

Ohhh my God. Using a lead on a boat for 2 villagers just solved my problem with getting an iron farm started! Thank you!!

Missing the bed method. Some people make the villagers path find at night to a bed and just keep moving and destroying it. Personally I think that is too tedious, but I have seen it done successfully. I agree with you about converting them. It is the best way, easiest way, and plus you get better trades as a bonus :)

[drabbacs]

I didn't know the water on the hill trick...thanks. How about a video for moving villagers vertically (water tower, boats with leads and scaffolding, etc)?

[drakethesnake]

My goal today was to start a breeder and an iron farm its like you read my dreams lol

[magicmanac]

Never thought to use a buck of water to take them up hill. Great video

[Aggrosk]

You should do a whole potion tutorial. That’s one area of Minecraft I am not well versed at all.

[victormillen]

There's two rivers connecting my current base to a nearby village, so I got them pretty easily. Do have to dig a tiny canal to join the two rivers but it's really short. Now I have pretty much straight access to the village via boat, and chest boat too, so I'll say boats works out really well.

Also, I made a honey-piston platform to raise the boat that one block onto the shore, works wonders since I use it a lot 😂

TIP: if you are poor you can use a minecart with a furnance to push the vilager minecart.

My internet sucks and I can't watch you on twitch without stopping every 5 seconds so why not here. Great content as always btw!

[victimborn]

The way I convert my zed villagers is with an arrow of weakness instead of a splash potion. Tip: do not use your OP bow when doing this and one shot your potential villagers

[pirade]

You are one of the first minecraft bedrock youtubers that ive ever seen.

Finally got a mending villager but my base was over 2000 blocks away. Took the villager out of the boat as I had to break a path, I encountered a skeleton, I spam clicked him for no reason with a sharp 4, unbreaking 3, kB 1, looting 3 sword and the villager jumps in the way. Was not happy

[hongyionline]

1. Dig 2 blocks depth hole on the ground
2.put trapdoors and trap zombie villager
3. Convert and your done
