How to deal with it
Section titled “How to deal with it”- Watch the treeline in the Jungle, Lush Caves and Dripstone Caves, and on any long trip with a tamed dino following you.
- It shoots from range, so close the distance or break line of sight. A dino that can charge or fly ends the fight fast.
- An ambush brings a small group at once, so do not fight them in the open with your whole herd behind you.
- Beat one for Emeralds and Arrows, with a chance at the dino drop it was hunting for.
Good to know
Section titled “Good to know”- It targets dinos first and you second, so it will chase a wild or tamed dino right past you.
- It leaves you alone in the Nether, the End and on Peaceful.
Piglin Herder
Section titled “Piglin Herder”Bedrock Bedrock only
A spear-carrying piglin that guards a camp of hoarded Amber and the Obsidiceratops caged at its heart.

How to deal with it
Section titled “How to deal with it”- Find a Piglin Cage Camp in a Crimson Forest in the Nether. A captive Obsidiceratops sits in a cage ringed by Amber, watched by its Herders.
- The Herders stay neutral at first. They turn on you if you break a camp block, hit one of them, or linger by the cage.
- Fight through them in melee. They rush you with a Golden Spear and shrug off fire and lava.
- Break the cage to free the Obsidiceratops. Once it is out you can tame it like any wild one, and the camp’s Amber is yours.
Good to know
Section titled “Good to know”- Herders never hurt the caged or freed Obsidiceratops. They only want the Amber.
- Each one drops Amber, so clearing a camp pays well.
