A totem as a last resort in case you take fatal damage. A boat or minecart to trap any melee raiders (preferably vindicators or ravagers) to trap them so you can kill them without them chasing you (you can also do this with pillagers, but try to block or dodge the arrows). Some dirt blocks (you can use any block you want) to pillar jump and attack melee raiders easier (this is not recommended with pillagers, as they can shoot you off the pillar with their crossbow). A Lava Bucket for quickly eliminating Ravagers and other mobs (excluding witches, which drink Fire resistance potions). Golden apples to tank enemy attacks and provide a swift healing cover. Positive potions such as Strength II, Fire Resistance +, Swiftness II, Regeneration II and Instant Health II to buff you up against the raiders. Negative Splash potions, to hinder groups of raiders. Milk, to remove negative status effects from the witches that could affect your performance. Unlike golems that are spawned by villagers, this won't attack you even if you hurt them. This can summon iron golems providing additional reinforcements to the village. A stack or more of expendable blocks to barricade village houses. A water bucket for getting up or down easily necessary for all missions regardless of difficulty! Using a water bucket can also push vindicators away from you, and they can't go against the flow of the water, allowing you to take down the vindicators quicker.
Plenty of nutritious food, such as steak and bread, to regenerate health.Power and Flame can quickly dispatch most raiders, if not one-shot them. A bow or crossbow as your ranged weapon to take out raiders from a distance.A shield to guard against vex attacks, as well as vindicator blows as their attacks cannot disable shields .Tools, which may be useful to hide villagers underground if blocking doors is not a feasible option, to unblock houses after the raid, and so forth.Protection ensures better survivability and reduces damage from evocation fangs that would otherwise bypass armor and shields.

A full set of diamond armor at minimum. Sharpness and Fire Aspect allow quicker elimination of enemies, while Looting enables more spoils from the pillagers and vindicators . They can be difficult to tackle early-game and can result in many villager deaths if not properly handled.
Raids are events during which pillagers, vindicators, ravagers, and evokers (which can summon vexes) invade a village to kill as many villagers as possible ( witches also spawn but they are passive to villagers, they also attack iron golems and the player and heal other illagers with beneficial potions).
