Literally everywhere I go theres pillagers spawning with no pillager tower for at least 1000 blocks and its getting to the point Im ready to stop playing because they kill all my villagers. I just spent an hour looking for a village that was even populated because since we got the abandoned village update it seems all I can find is abandoned villages and zombie villages. I finally found a village that had three villagers about 600 blocks away so i took them back to the village by my house to repopulate and no longer than 20 minutes later i go into town to find the pillagers killing the villagers i had just brought back. I even just went to the nether and the first thing I saw was a pillager captain idk how he wouldve even got there because theres no way he got though my portal thats behind a waterfall in a fountain at my base. Hella irritating

I found one in the end islands. Lol he wasn't able to attack me or even walk around for some reason.

These are pillager patrols that spawn anywhere.
Also, Pillager patrol will be no longer spawn in the End and Nether in upcoming 1.14. Please search bug before creating a new ticket.
FYI, I love pillager patrols spawning in my villages. You just need to build protection for the villagers properly.

i have that issue also, i can be NO WHERE NEAR A VILLAGE ! and they will still spawn..its hella annoying..@eyeth you are no help at all because i also built 4 giant walls surrounding my village and they still come in and kill them..i shouldnt have to go above and beyond like that for my village and they still die..mojang needs to fix this issue ASAPÂ

Patrols spawn 24 blocks away ( 12 blocks diagonal) when player is NOT in the village.
Build a protecting designs for the villagers. Walls/fort are makes sense for the village as secondary defense. Walls don't stop them from spawning in.

I have three or four patrols spawned in the End right now. Everytime I leave and come back another one spawns with out any despawning. Slowly filling mob cap in end with patrols. Can't build any farms in the End because a patrol spawns in it and breaks the farm. Have also had patrols spawning in a perimeter being built in a swamp.

Pillager patrols ignore hostile mob density check and (on normal and hard) light level. Only thing to stop spawn is trapping a captain. You can catch it in boat or minecart or build a trapdoor pit or water flow or something. They will not spawn underground so securing villagers underground is another option.
