Piglin Royal bartering rewards
🕑 Added 2024-09-26 05:12:36 +0000 UTCApologies by the amount of polls in the past few days, but I have been trying to figure out what I want to do for the Piglin Royal for its bartering system and want some help deciding what the main reward(s) should be.
I have quickly realized that this cannot be like other Piglins where the main reward is the trading with gold as ferrying mobs to the Royal's chamber is a lot of work. Instead, I realized there needs to be some sort of final reward you progress to with a single royal, while getting smaller rewards along the way. This has led me to two potential rewards and I am not sure if I should just implement one or if I should implement both (possibly either both being in the reward track or potentially getting to choose one upon completing a bartering progression with a Royal).
#1: The Royal Cape/Crown/Crest (Armor)
I am currently unsure of what nature this item would be, but my hope is for it to be either a new piece of armor with Netherite's stats or an attachment to Netherite (whichever I find is easier to do for me). This will give you the Piglin pacifying properties of gold while also potentially making Piglin Brutes neutral (if I can do that, that is). It will also function like whatever item I make for the Piglin Royal's drop in the fact that it will allow you to approach a Royal without it getting angry.
#2: The Piglin Royal Guard
I WANT TO ADD HERE THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO TOGGLE THIS PRED FROM BEING ABLE TO EAT PREYS IF YOU DON'T WANT THEM TO BE A PRED BUT DO WANT A COMPANION LIKE IT.
This would be a tamed companion pred you would get a summoning item for. Their specialty would be a defensive backbone that can draw aggro and shield themselves while also being able to help you break through conditions such as Wither. They will be equipped with a powered Nether Wart canteen (stops them from turning outside the Nether) and may have special rallying functions during raids.
You would be able to choose their gender, and they would be very similar to the royal in the aspect of them being a Piglin with hair.
The Vote
Please do not let preferences of not liking Piglin Royal-like preds swing you to say "Just the Armor". I just want to kind of feel out if you should get a recruitable pred/companion that would potentially give reason to progress though more than one Royal's bartering trees or if just the one time thing of the Armor would be better.

i saw that but i am asking if you dont do that and bring em over to the overworld would it end up being a zombie version if the mob or just turn into a normal zombie pigling

hmm, that is a fair point. I’ll look into it

I said it in the guard’s section, but it will have a special attachment of Nether Wart that makes it immune to Zombification in the Overworld. It’s a little tidbit from Minecraft Legends (if I’m not just hallucinating it) that was the reason they could survive in the Overworld without transforming and I feel it could be nice to have it survive there without transforming.

i am curious if the piglin royal guard would have a zombie version or just turns into a normal zombie piglin. i mean i kinda assume it would just be a varient but still want to ask

could do an armor trim instead of a crown or something, might be easier
