Thanks to the new Nether Update of Minecraft, in addition to the novelty on materials introduced with Netherite, we got acquainted with the Piglins, humanoid pigs with which it is possible to trade.
An important premise must be made: in order to trade with the Piglins you will need to wear at least one piece of gold armorotherwise these bizarre creatures will attack our character as soon as we are near them.
After equipping the gold armor you will have to drop a Golden Ingot near a Piglin which, after observing it, will steal it by releasing a random object.
You can drop several individual Gold Bars onto the ground and the nearest Piglin will take them one after the other, releasing a new item each time.
The best item you can get will be the one that will allow you to increase your travel speed on the Soul Sand, a type of Nether block that normally slows down movements. Of course, the percentage of probability of obtaining the best item is drastically reduced, as summarized in the table below:
OBJECT | CHANCE |
Enchanted Book (Soul Speed) | 5/423 (~ 1.18%) |
Iron Boots (Soul Speed) | 8/423 (~ 1.89%) |
Iron Nugget | 10/423 (~ 2.36%) |
Potion of Fire Resistance | 10/423 (~ 2.36%) |
Splash Potion of Fire Resistance | 10/423 (~ 2.36%) |
Ender Pearl | 20/423 (~ 4.73%) |
Glowstone Dust | 20/423 (~ 4.73%) |
Magma Cream | 20/423 (~ 4.73%) |
Nether Quartz | 20/423 (~ 4.73%) |
String | 20/423 (~ 4.73%) |
Crying Obsidian | 40/423 (~ 9.46%) |
Fire Charge | 40/423 (~ 9.46%) |
Gravel | 40/423 (~ 9.46%) |
Leather | 40/423 (~ 9.46%) |
Nether Brick | 40/423 (~ 9.46%) |
Obsidian | 40/423 (~ 9.46%) |
Soul Sand | 40/423 (~ 9.46%) |
If you run out of Gold Bars during your Minecraft games don't worry, Nether is chock full of gold veins to dig but, beware: avoid doing it in the presence of the Piglins or they will attack you, even if you are wearing golden armor.
