FAQ
How does piglin bartering work?
Throw a gold ingot to a piglin and it tosses back a random item, with no cooldown between trades.
What are the best items to get?
Ender pearls (2.2%), obsidian and crying obsidian are the valuable targets; fire resistance potions help too.
How many ingots for a stack of pearls?
At 64 barters, expect roughly 1–2 ender pearls; grind hundreds of ingots for a real supply.
Does Looting or fortune affect bartering?
No: bartering rolls the fixed loot table weights and ignores enchantments.
Is bartering faster than fighting Endermen?
For pearls yes in bulk, because each ingot trades instantly and needs no mob hunting.
