A pillager raid captain is a powerful pillager variant and raid captain that can be found within the various missions of Minecraft Dungeons. When defeated, they drop a banner that can increase the threat level or apply a negative modifier, but offer better rewards at the end of the mission. They visually resemble a variant 3 pillager.
Spawning
Raid captains can only spawn if a mission has been completed before. They spawn with a group of illagers or illager allies around them, such as vindicators, geomancers, pillagers, mountaineers, wind callers, enchanters, royal guards, iceologers, or witches. They can also spawn alone. Pillager raid captain cannot spawn during ancient hunts.
They can be found within the following missions:
Creeper Woods
Creepy Crypt
Soggy Swamp
Soggy Cave

Behavior
Pillager raid captains behave like pillagers, shooting at the hero with its crossbow. However, they deal increased damage and knockback. Pillager raid captains spawn only within missions that have already been completed once, but not on all. Depending on the situation, there can be one to six pillager raid captains in missions. They spawn alone or with a group of illagers or illager allies around them, such as vindicators, geomancers, pillagers, mountaineers, wind callers, enchanters, royal guards, iceologers, and witches.
Drops
When defeated, raid captains drop one of two banners; either a threat banner or a mystery banner. When activated, these banners add modifiers (e.g. enemies have boost) to the current mission that increase the difficulty but add a raid reward chest to the end of the mission. Furthermore, the chance for the item in the reward chest to be unique exponentially increases for every raid captain defeated after the first.
If all six raid captains have been defeated inside of a Daily Trial on Apocalypse +25, the highest power level items in the game can be collected from the raid reward chest.
