Frequently Asked Questions
How does curing a Zombie Villager lower trading prices in Minecraft?
When you convert a Zombie Villager back into a human villager using a Splash Potion of Weakness and a Golden Apple, the villager gains a permanent major discount on all tier trades (typically -20 to -30 Emeralds on enchanted books and cheaper item ratios like 1 Stick = 1 Emerald).
Can you still stack cure discounts 5 times in Minecraft 1.20.2 and 1.21+?
No! Starting in Minecraft Java 1.20.2 (bug fix MC-181190), Mojang patched cure stacking. Curing a villager a second or third time no longer increases the discount; you only receive the discount for the first cure. However, combining 1 cure with Hero of the Village from a raid still drops almost every trade to 1 emerald.
What is the best profession for infinite Emerald trading?
The Fletcher (trading 32 Sticks for 1 Emerald, which drops to 1 Stick for 1 Emerald with a cure) and the Farmer (trading Pumpkins and Melons) provide the easiest infinite emeralds. For gear, the Armorer and Toolsmith provide full Enchanted Diamond armor and tools for 1 Emerald each.
How does Hero of the Village affect villager discounts?
Defeating a Pillager Raid grants Hero of the Village (I through V for 40 minutes). Hero of the Village I reduces prices by roughly 30%, and each subsequent level adds ~6.25% up to ~55% at Level V, stacking additively on top of your cure discount.
