I'm so done with this particular aspect of 1.14. We're trying to set up a new server (1.14.1 currently), and these illager patrols are freaking nerfing us left and right early game. We're doing things proper survival, with minimal admin commands, and they keep killing us off out of nowhere. Basically, we set our spawn area theoretically far enough from the closest village, and started doing our thing. We did a lot of work flattening our 17x17 spawn (yes that's correct dimensions for ours) to Y=63, lit it all up, fenced it in, etc. We can prevent all mobs EXCEPT the stupid pillagers.
There is a recurring patrol spawn point right near our spawn chunks center, which is DEFINITELY over 256 blocks away from a village. We have no breeders, etc in spawn; we've just been doing initial terraforming and set up. This is our naked start spawn area, and it's super frustrating to not be able to shut illager patrols off. This has GOT to change. I created a bug report on it if you are so inclined to add your 2 cents and upvote it. https://bugs.mojang.com/projects/MC/issues/MC-152707
