Minecraft Snapshot 19w13a
Snapshot intros can be difficult to write! They should summarize all of the information we have gathered each week. For instance the fact that Illagers now possess enough intelligence to open doors (congratulations!). or that you can trade in the middle of a raid. They can also be used as a fun way to transition into all that heavy information that explains the bug fixes. Add a good portion of memes and you have the perfect Wednesday read! Since I've already rambled long enough, I can't offer the latter. Perhaps next week?

Changes in 19W13A
Accessibility button now available on the title screen. Accessibility and narration enhancements. Raid tweaks. Bugfixes
RAIDS
Raids follow a certain pattern based upon difficulty to determine how many groups will be spawned as part of the raid: Easy – 3 Normal 5 Hard – 7
If you or your fellow village mates brought more than one level of Bad Omen into the village during the raid or at the initial trigger of the raid, you'll experience an additional wave that is equivalent to the final base wave you would normally encounter for your difficulty. Minecraft Games Ex: Bad Omen levels 2-5 would encounter 4 waves on easy, and the fourth wave is the same as the third.
BAD OMEN
You can now go up to Bad Omen 5, and you can only earn 1 Bad Omen at a time from killing a captain. Bad Omens are brought into the village by each person who brings them into. Bad Omen 5 is the highest level. More powerful levels of bad omen mean that there is a higher chance that your enemies will be equipped with enchanted weapons.
HERO OF THE VILLAGE:
Now you can get an effect called Hero of the Village after successfully protecting your village from being sacked! This effect is similar to the Bad Omen level in the village that is being targeted. The effect will last for about 2 days during the game days, and will offer you great discounts on trades and will depend on the intensity of the effect. Villagers will also show their gratitude, so look out for your new fans in the village after you save them!
