Added Piglins

The Wither can now be summoned using soul soil as base

Advancements

Piglins and Hoglins are now required for Monster Hunter and Monsters Hunted

Hoglins

Hoglins are big aggressive beasts that live in crimson forests in the Nether

They attack players on sight, so be careful, they can easily knock you off a ledge!

Hoglins drop pork and sometimes leather, but not willingly

You can breed Hoglins by feeding them crimson fungi, but do so at your own risk

Hoglins get hunted by Piglins sometimes, but they don’t go down without a fight!

Despite this, Hoglins and Piglin aren’t enemies – they are more like an ecosystem

Baby Hoglins like to pretend they are tough – but don’t worry, they are more like angry puppies with no teeth

Want to keep Hoglins off your back? Pro tip: Hoglins hate the smell of warped fungi!

Piglins

Piglins are an aggressive civilization that live in the Nether

They mostly hang around in crimson forests, but you might find

some in the Nether wastes too

some in the Nether wastes too They think of players as target practice and will attack on sight

However, if you dress appropriately they will see you as a respectable figure, or tolerable at least

Piglins are suspicious of strangers and if they see you opening a chest, or mining a block of gold,

they will assume that you’re stealing and will treat you accordingly

they will assume that you’re stealing and will treat you accordingly Piglins LOVE gold and get very distracted by gold items

Gold ingots are currency to Piglins and you can throw ingots at them or right-click them with an

ingot to barter for various goods

ingot to barter for various goods Piglins sometimes get hungry and hunt Hoglins for food. Or they try at least. They results… vary.

Piglins prefer to hunt and fight in groups, and when a fight is happening everyone wants in

Piglins that somehow end up in the overworld become zombified fairly quickly

Piglins are creeped out by soul fire and zombified Piglins, and will stay clear whenever possible

Wither skeletons are a historic enemy and Piglins will attack on sight

Baby Piglins are not as dangerous, but they can be mischievous so watch your back

… and they like to play with baby Hoglins
