Trading in Minecraft is a gameplay mechanic that allows players to trade emeralds for items (or trade items for emeralds) with villagers, as well as wandering traders. Minecraft players just have to find villagers with a profession (or find a wandering trader), and click on them, which opens up the trading menu.

For lots of players, especially early on, trading can be quite expensive depending on the villagers profession and the items they are willing to trade. Because of this, Minecraft players often look for ways to lower villagers' trade prices.

So, listed down below, is everything players need to know on how to lower villagers trade prices in Minecraft Bedrock Edition specifically.

As of now, there is only one known way to lower villagers trading prices in Minecraft, and that is to earn the "Hero of the Village" achievement.

The Hero of the Village is a status effect that is granted to the Minecraft player upon defeating a raid. Raids are in-game events in which waves of various mobs, mainly pillagers, spawn and attack a village.

It is usually triggered when a player with the Bad Omen status effect enters a village. Some raids can be quite hard to complete, and they often happen in waves, but the result is worth the hard work.

When the player has a Hero of the Village status in Minecraft Bedrock edition, they will receive discounts from the villager trades while under the status effect.

In Bedrock edition, the effect is active only if the player is in the village in which the raid has been defeated, and does not affect the wandering trader's trades.

Price Decrement

Level one hero of the village decreases the cost of the first item in a trade by 30% and each additional level decreases the price by an addition 6.25%. For Minecraft Bedrock edition, the maximum level is level one, meaning the price will always be marked down by 30% and can not go any higher.
