With the introduction of update 1.19, several new changes and mobs were added, and since then, the Minecraft community has been hyped. Looking at the features added by Mojang, it is concluded that it was worth the wait. One of them is the beautiful flying creature Allay that won the Minecraft mob fan vote held in 2021, and it is a fairy mob that will help you do better in your world.

Today we will learn about Allay, where to find it, its purpose, whether it could be bred, and everything related.

What is an Allay in Minecraft

Allay is a cute little mob that isn’t hostile, and it is mainly found inside cages because it flies away for no reason. It is added to be your friend, and the hostile mobs don’t attack it, so you don’t need to worry about its safety.

Where to find the Allay in Minecraft

Allays are only found inside the cages or prison cells of two structures called

1. Pillager outposts
2. Mansions

And both places are packed with deadly mobs that would not hesitate to kill you instantly.

The Pillager outposts are found in all biomes, and you will see the mobs who are shooting arrows at you, so look around the place when you visit one because you are close to the pillager outpost.

You will notice a wood bungalow-type structure that looks like this, and there is a good chance that you may find a cage with Allays in it.

It can also be found inside the prison cells of Mansions, and we recommend you avoid that place at all costs because mansions are one of the most dangerous places that ever existed in Minecraft.

What does Allay do in Minecraft

Allays are only helpful for the players who like to collect items from the ground as they can

1. Quickly pick up all items in an area and return them to the nearest player.
2. If you give it something to hold, it will search a good amount of radius looking for other copies of the item and then drop it in front of you, but it will keep the original item to itself that you can take by right-clicking on it when empty-handed.
