Overview
Piglin brutes ignore gold armour entirely and charge every player they see with a golden axe that hits for 13 on Normal, enough to two-shot iron armour. They never barter, never flee, and cannot be distracted, so a bastion treasure room is one of the hardest fights in the game outside a boss. Bring a shield, fight in a corridor, and use the fact that they cannot open doors. They also zombify outside the Nether.
In Minecraft, Piglin Brute is classified as a hostile mob. It has 50 health points, or 25 hearts. On Normal difficulty each hit costs you 13 damage.
It is worth 20 XP.
