Redstone Pigman

Redstone Pigmen are neutral mobs that spawn in the Pigman's Den. They do not serve as a base for any Collections, but they drop Gold Nugget. They are neutral as long as players don't attack them or have at least 64 Redstone Dust in their inventory. If one player attacks the Pigman or has more than one stack of Redstone Dust in their inventory around a Redstone Pigman, they will become aggressive to all players around. Provoking a single Redstone Pigman will also provoke all others around, causing them to attack the aggressor.

Although they hold a Pigman Sword, their ability to shoot out Burning Souls was removed in an unknown update.

Trivia

 * Redstone Pigmans have a chance to drop an Exp Share Core and Brick Red Dye. If the player gets this early on, they can get a bit of money.
