Illegal Illager Trials — Minecraft Dungeons II Quest Guide

Illegal Illager Trials is a side quest in Rainy Plains, recommended at level 21. The quest opens at the Red Tower, where you free a captured Villager from the illagers, then turns into a hunt for soul corrupted illagers across the plains. Finishing it for the first time ties into Wading Rainy Plains, the region's main quest.

Objectives walkthrough

Ten objectives, in order:

1. Head to the Red Tower — travel to the tower.
2. Investigate the tower — look around.
3. Free the captured Villager — objective step.
4. Free the captured Villager — interact to set the villager free.
5. Defeat the illagers — an arena fight.
6. Track the soul corrupted illagers — follow their trail.
7. Defeat the soul corrupted illagers ×7 — including a Soul Corrupted Vindicator, Vindicator, and Pillager.
8. Track the soul corrupted illagers — follow the trail again.
9. Defeat the soul corrupted illagers ×9 — including a Soul Corrupted Geomancer, Pillager, and Vindicator.
10. Return to Puddle Pond — head back to finish the quest.

Key encounters

No named boss is listed. The meat of the quest is the two waves of soul corrupted illagers — seven, then nine — with elite variants like the Soul Corrupted Vindicator and Soul Corrupted Geomancer mixed in. These hit hard for a side quest, so use crowd control and pick off the elites before the numbers overwhelm you.

Rewards

A first completion grants the Corrupted Seeds. Repeat runs drop the Armadillo Amulet and also roll a drop from the area's loot pool. Finishing first ties into Wading Rainy Plains.

Tips

• The soul corrupted waves are the real difficulty spike — bring area damage for the ×9 wave.
• The Armadillo Amulet only drops on repeat runs, making this a solid farming loop in Rainy Plains.
• The soul corruption theme connects to the Soul Corrupted Witch — Minecraft Dungeons II Boss Guide, if you want to follow that thread.
