1:21:50 DO NOT put your chest on the obsidian platform. Every time you go to the end, the platform regenerates, destroying all blocks around it, as shown at 1:28:40.

Yes, it pained me to see that, everything a couple blocks above the obsidian platform gets destroyed every time you enter the End, and if you mine away the platform, it will respawn as it was before each time you enter, too.

pro tip 102 if you had grabbed the silk touch pick you couldve smelted the nether gold into full ingots instead of the bits.

[@namef]

Had to double check, but if mining drops 0-6 gold nuggets and smelting gives you a constant 9, then silk touch would be 3x better than a non-futune pickaxe on average

[@Biryani2op]

@@namef what do u think is better? Silk touch or fortune?

[@namef]

These are the averages I got after mining 5,000 nether gold ore and ending up with 4,378 gold ingots. silktouch: *1* ingots per block fortune 3: *0.8756* ingots per block Although silktouch is _technically_ better, I usually just use fortune 3 because, in most cases, the extra smelting time outways the very slight benefit of silktouch in my opinion.

My tips for keeping a world for as long as possible: Start with optimising and preparing your world for future builds. Build a good storage system, build a village, beat the bosses, make infrastructure between important places, etc. Try to have fun while doing those things and try to drag out the length of your world as much as possible. You can do that by not being lazy when you build your "essential" builds and go through the effort of getting nicer blocks and giving the builds a unique or good looking design. You can also drag out the lenght of your world by just going on random mining/resources gathering trips even if you don't need the resources at the moment. After playing for long enough, you'll eventually get more ideas for things that you want to do in your world that go past the basic needs. Also, write all your ideas down. It helps you remember possible future projects, makes them feel more realistically doable, and it helps you track of what you have left to do. Remember to take breaks if you're feeling bored as well. It helps you feel excited about playing Minecraft later. I once took a many months long break from my world and after the break I was excited and ready to get back into it. Lastly, if you die and lose all your items, don't give up. You can get back to where you were even if it's frustrating. It happened to me a few times and after a month or so I had gotten back to the stage I was at before losing everything. Atter keeping my world for 3 years, I've personally gained enough project ideas that it seems nearly impossible for me to do them all.

[@v0id_d3m0n]

@@TheFlyfly justto add to that, - stock up on backup items in case you die (i.e. full set of tools and armour). It's worth the grind! - If you find ~ the grind ~ boring, stick on a podcast or a video or music in the background, especially if it's something that doesnt require your attention, and take breaks

[@DemainaNyx]

Make sure to give yourself a goal. Minecraft is one of those "make of it what you will" games, so it's easy to just not know what to do. In essence, the only thing you NEED to do is not die, which is easily accomplishable by making a well-lit enclosed base with a food source inside it like a carrot farm. With that, you can easily last years without putting yourself in danger once. But, I'm sure most of us would go crazy to be in that environment for too long. Having something to plan towards really helps keep me motivated to keep playing even when I feel like it's good enough. Early on that might just be getting iron tools/armor, or finding a spot I want to build my endgame base, or just getting enough to make a bed. Whatever it is, being able to check something off your list gives you that rush that makes you believe you can accomplish more difficult tasks and that is what will keep you motivated to play. And, if you don't have goals, a fallback is do every achievement/advancement in the game. Some are really simple (make a crafting table) and some are needlessly complex (get every status effect at the same time). Personally, I've started making the crazy farms you see the technical players like Ilmango, Ray Works, and Gnembon make. As a normal Minecraft player, you don't need these farms and can easily exist in a world without them. As ibxtoycat has shown in this video, you can easily beat the ender dragon with literally nothing. But, sometimes it's really nice to have an automatic cooked chicken farm. Or a AFK tree farm. Or a large storage system. Maybe farms don't interest you but instead you want to make beautiful bases. A floating castle above the mountains. A secret bunker base that looks normal from above the ground. An old mansion. A futuristic pyramid. Whatever it is doesn't matter, so long as it's something you want to make. My friend really likes decorating our bases so I make the farms to help us gather the materials he'll need for the decorating. He needs 10 thousand quartz blocks for a roman coliseum; I make a villager trading hall for all our tools, armor, enchanted books, and quartz needs. He need a ton of dark prismarine for the floor of that coliseum; I make a guardian farm and a wither rose farm. Alternatively, check out different takes on the game like Skyblock for instance. Skyblock forces you to make your world, so it sorta gives you goals to accomplish. The only downside is you have to understand how minecraft works, like how to spawn hostile mobs, how to spawn passive mobs, how to make bees appear, how to make the wandering trader appear. Most of these things a normal minecraft player never thinks about because it just happens naturally, but in skyblock you can control all of it so it's up to you to take advantage of it.

Pro tip 103 (on xbox): as soon as you die, record the last 15 seconds of gameplay so you can refer back to your coordinates whenever you need

[@nosebluntbob7124]

In caves only place torches on your left then when you're heading out they're on your right and you know you're going the right way. At junctions place 2 torches in a row in the direction you came from. Also when exploring nether fortress etc or in caves you can place a block foreign to the area at entrance to ways you already explored.

[@VoidRep]

those are good tips

[@cleryfrey]

I now do this ESPECIALLY with our current cave system. it is EASY to get lost along the way.

[@postdawn]

I do something similar. I always place the torch facing back the way I came. I use the double or triple torch placement to indicate a POI and/or something that needs to be mined further. Works pretty good so far.

[@justkittensbeingkittens5892]

I use signs in my permanent mines, just make a little arrow and maybe if leading to a specific area a name to the direction you came from/need. It’s better than torches for me

[@vurvo574]

If you are new to the game, you can turn on peaceful for the entire run and switch to easy once you reach the blaze spawner and turn it back after you get the rods. That way you can beat the dragon (you can fight it on peaceful) easily without having to worry about hostile mobs, hunger, you can barter with the Piglins without ever angering them, etc.

[@zygoncommander1239]

Huh, I can’t believe I never thought about that. I turn it to peaceful all the time when I’m building because I don’t wanna be interrupted, but I’ve never thought about using it for beating the game itself. Definitely gonna do that on my current world, I totally suck at fighting and it’s not what I play the game for.

[@slons4]

This is definitely an option, but it has one flaw: is it honorable? There’s definitely many ways to look at this style of gameplay so it really comes down to personal preference. But there’s always going to be someone who finds this style of peaceful swapping to not be honorable

I woke up in the middle of the bush passed out drunk in a prickle patch with absolutely no idea where I was or which direction to go, how or why I'd gotten there and no phone! I chose a direction and started walking. I eventually came across a side road which lead to a main road that I recognized. That helped but I had no idea where I had walked FROM as I had been at a friends house for the first time and didn't remember the address or how to get there from where I was. It got even worse from there but I'll spare you those details. It was many years ago and I don't remember how I actually got back to the house but I did and lived to tell the tale...

[@misspat7555]

The nether is always a bad time. I “slow run” Minecraft to relax and unwind (I know, weird way to do that, but I do use easy mode), and if I can even find a way into the nether before running 5000 blocks, I then will often spawn in a terrible biome (basalt delta or soul sand valley), in a cave near the ceiling, or worst of all, more or less surrounded by/about to fall into lava. My strategy is fortress-hunting on strider-back, so I need a warped fungus. Even once I get a saddle (usually by fishing) and a warped fungus on a stick, there’s the ghasts, the omnipresent lava, the magma cubes, and the general need for constant vigilance to protect against being quickly dispatched, especially (as Toycat illustrates here) in the nether fortress, by blazes, wither skeletons, regular skeletons, mobs specific to the biome like hoglins or endermen, or even mobs of zombie pigmen because you accidentally hit one. Then there’s the matter of returning to the nether portal with your precious blaze rods. Have definitely felt the pain Toycat experienced here, dying in/near lava on the way back to the nether portal and losing the blaze rods! 😭

I have a tip. Minecraft purists will probably condemn it, but is completely viable for almost anything other than hardcore or multiplayer. You can always switch to peaceful, if you have serious enough doubts about being able to recover your stuff, or being able to make a trek somewhere through hostile territory. It’s not the most honorable method, but there is pretty much no punishment for it, and the ability to change difficulty to peaceful on the fly is built directly into the game’s options. So if you really need some immedieate breathing room, the option is present.

One very important tip you forgot, and probably should've learned when you died in lava and wanted to give up: NEVER DIG STRAIGHT DOWN!

[@aussierule]

Thanks dude. I’m just getting into Minecraft at 27 and surprised at how overwhelming everything is. Not surface level but just the sheer amount of things you can do with the same items is mind blowing. Really surprised I haven’t played it but not at the same time. WoW ate my life from 2008 to 2014. Then I recently finished maxing in OSRS. I love building/crafting/survival games. 7k hours in DayZ, Scum, 7days, unturned. Just never played the OG. Maybe a couple of times when it was free a long time ago.

[@justkittensbeingkittens5892]

Yeah the updates have made it pretty complicated these days! How’s it been going?

[@BrittanyYoungxDuckie]

Just bought the game a few days ago and am hooked. My brother mentioned he beat the game and I had no idea you could beat Minecraft. 😂 I’m learning so much on here so thank you!!!

[@jubicudis]

I enjoyed watching you do this and felt for you when you died and didnt record. You looked so sad buddy but you reminded me of both myself and my son when we play this game. Thanks for the upload and keeping these things in the video. Definitely makes viewers who play minecraft feel better

[@kaylaa2204]

So Toycat, suspicious stew's effect isn't random, it's just hidden. It is random if it's sold by a villager, because you don't know which one you're buying, but any one suspcious stew will always be the same effect, and if you want to go threw the somewhat-convoluted process of making it yourself, you can make a suspicious stew that is the exact effect you want. Some dedicated players do this for the one that gives Saturation.

[@Flareontoast]

I think what he meant by random is that you have no control over what the effect is of suspicious stew, and you can't tell until you eat it, so it technically is random to the player because it could be all kinds of effects and you wouldn't know so it might as well be random. Ox-eyed daisies make regen soup! You can also get them from brown mooshrooms after feeding them certain flowers and milking them.

[@kaylaa2204]

@@Flareontoast Those aren't separate things, you have to feed a brown mooshroom oxeye daisies and then milk them, which gives you a suspicious stew that gives regen But yeah thats what I was saying, it's random to you if you yourself did not make it, since you can't visually see the effect until you eat the stew

This is a personal tip (for bedrock atleast): Want Armour or a higher chance of getting drops that are harder to get? Land crits on a mob, specifically the first hit will guarantee better odds then landing a crit your 2nd hit.

jumping back into a new world after so many years away from the game and immediately within view of the starting position I saw a largely intact ruined portal with a treasure box of obsidian and a flint and steel as well, i believe

[@jarrod752]

That Mob light level change to 1.18 *only* applies to artificial light. The _natural_ light level for mobs is still 7 (dusk, dawn, cave entrances etc).

[@bloodlust_9890]

1. Look for structures (Village If possible) 2. Turn FOV to 30 to get an "optifine zoom" 3.5. Never said as tip by him but, get wood, DUH! 3. Get Wooden pickaxe and... Boat??? 4. If in ice biome, use boat to travel FAST 5. Find Access to nether (Lava pit/Ruined portal) or CAVE 6. Get food 7. Smelt Things using left over Wooden Pick 8. Mobs can only attack 1 per seccond 9. Turn up brightness 10. Use wooden planks (or juke boxes) if less then 8 items 11. Get to ~-40 then try to get diamonds 12. Mobs always follow you so lead them away 13. Always eat as much garbage food as you can (for saturation) 14. If you don't find diamonds, (min 6 Iron) leave the cave 15. Get more iron on your way up 16. If a skeleton in killing range, kill. If not, place blocks or run! 17. Don't need charcoal 18. Always craft Chestplate first (after bucket) 19. Get a shield! 19.5 If you have, Bucket, Sword, Armour. Go to Neather! And dye your bed (red 20. No need for house 21. If freezing, punch snow. Or scoop it up! 22. Avoid mountains, find flattest way out to find lava / ruined portal (or cave if necessary) 23. Get water as a "ladder" 24. Get flint for flint & steel, and *B U R N T H E A N I M A L S !* 25. switch perspective when riding boat/horse --------------------------------

[@Elementening]

the optifine mod reduces fov to 15.... if you are on bedrock use a spyglass

[@bertiebuttercup]

you kind of misunderstood 13 there xD he said if you have loads of garbage food (uncooked potatoes, carrots etc.) and some cooked meat, eat the garbage food first until you reach the level where one cooked meat would get you to max hunger, like 3 empty hunger slots. then you get the saturation from the meat without using up all your meat, but get the same effect

[@Hugo_1]

pro tip play at your own pace 😭 nobody is forcing you to beat the dragon in a certain amount of time preparing for whatever challenge you’re about to take on is key

[@CreamerOfTheDairySquad]

it's not JUST that ppl can't figure it out to get to the dragon and kill it, some just don't go for it. every time I play survival or creative I just end up getting too into improving my base or build and just never make the dragon a priority.

[@DemainaNyx]

I will say, building in survival with an Elytra is so much nicer than without it. If you are like me and constantly forget blocks, it's so nice to just swoop down, pick up more, and fly back up. That and shulkers make building so nice cause you can have like 30 inventories in your inventory.

[@ShoonKairu]

Seeing Toycat rock the pancake cape makes me glad I have it

[@mistagreeneyes6290]

I'll start by saying that this was a very informative video and very entertaining. All the tips and fun facts are really what will help a lot of players. I'm actually gonna rewatch a second time after this comment. I think you went in the wrong direction of this video considering you started by saying that only 1 in 6 players have defeated the Ender Dragon and beat the game. You assumed that the other 5 of 6 people are focused on or need to focus on getting to the end dimension and beating the dragon. I'd imagine the other 2 of 6 have the end dimension in their spectrum of focus, 1 of 6 has the ultimate goal getting there but are in no rush (me), and 2 of 6 have no intention of going to the end dimension and are content in the overworld. I'm not an expert and I'm sure there are polls somewhere to find the exact facts but tbh, a lot of the more casual players probably won't even bother taking a poll. The other important thing to remember is that you technically don't "beat the game" by beating the Ender Dragon. Traveling to the Nether and End Dimension are really just added layers of exploration to the game with new materials and items that mostly make overworld exploration easier or add to building but most things aren't a requirement for working in the overworked (i.e. blaze rods are great for smelting and required for potions but arent a requirement). Lastly, as you proved, the Nether is a dangerous place even for someone with years of experience like yourself. There is a high probability of death and is an all around stressful environment. After your 3rd death even you were demotivated to continue and wanted to stop playing. You shouldn't need to put 101 facts in a title because it's probably trending. You always include useful tips in your videos and give even more that you don't realize. You could have name this video " The Nether, End Dimension and Ender Dragon: Casual and Fun, No Speedrun". Maybe even that type of title in mind would have helped you be more comfortable and stress-free in making the video instead of feeling like you need to beat the dragon. 💆‍♂️💆‍♂️💆‍♂️

[@jasperm2162]

I mean... its called tips on how to beat minecraft.. to beat minecraft you have to kill the ender dragon 🤷‍♀️

[@mistagreeneyes6290]

@@jasperm2162 as I said in my comment, killing the dragon doesn't "beat the game". Beating the game is usually a form of finalization where the game/world ends and you start over. Killing the dragon in Minecraft doesn't end the game but is really just the ultimate goal for accomplishment we have currently.

[@stevnated]

You accused him of assuming that "the other 5 or 6 are focused on or need to focus on .... beating the dragon," but I don't recall him saying that at all. In fact, everything after your first paragraph is overly critical, unnecessary and kinda rubbed me the wrong way. What's your point? That he shouldn't have made this video? That he should heed your advice in all future videos? That he should take this one down and re-do it? Personally, I feel like you should make your own video if you have so many issues with this one. "you went in the wrong direction" "you assumed" "the important thing for you to remember" "you shouldn't need" "you could have named" "maybe that would have helped you" I think he's fine, actually, and could probably do without your critiques, because it's too late now, isn't it?

[@mistagreeneyes6290]

@@stevnated opinions are like assholes... everyone has one. This is my opinion and its fine you don't agree. ToyCat started the video with the 1 of 6 fact in a "Tips to beat" video so it's obviously meant to help the other 5 of 6. "I feel" like he made the video to help players like me who haven't beat the dragon to understand more about the Nether and End but after his 3rd death and wanting to end the video, he kinda showed why we should be fearful of the Nethers. On the other hand, he showed us that if you die in the Nethers it happens to the best of us. I personally didn't enjoy ToyCat stressing and getting discouraged. I like to hear him laugh and that only happened twice in this video. My point is that he could have taken a more relaxed approach to the video and had more fun instead of rushing to make a trending video and leaving me saying "and that's why i don't go to the Nethers" 🤷‍♂️
