PSA: do NOT use dirt in the end EVER. Endermen can pick it up and get to you if you do the two high trick. Also they will destroy your bridges. I have made a grave error recently.

[@Zaximillian]

I try to build floors in larger builds on Y levels that end in 3 or 8. * It automatically matches the world water level. * It helps connect your faraway buildings together. * It makes all of your rooms 4 blocks high beneath each ceiling, and allows more elegant ceilings while still leaving 3 block high walls.

[@Thecountrieball]

2:02

[@MythicTF2]

I also do this, I like to build underground bases in grids basically. From y-level 65 I build rooms that are 12x12x5 on said grid, giving each room a buffer of 1 block so I can build more complex walls with depth. If I want bigger rooms I can also just tear down the walls between the rooms. I like my system for underground building since it makes it so I never run into my rooms I've built already and can keep things connected cleanly. The only downside is mining out all the stone for it but hey, I got a dwarf play style anyways so it doesn't bother me.

Also if you play bedrock then you can hide lighting using slabs and stairs, light will shine through them since they aren't full blocks.

it only shines through them in bedrock

[@LmaololXdhi]

this is annoying

[@thylacinegamer6314]

A stone axe may do more damage than a netherite sword, but there is one major downside: stone weapons and tools have much lower durability than netherite. even with enchantments, you'll probably spend more time at an exp farm with a stone tool than a netherite one.

[@AuroraNuyen-oh4bf]

Very good enchantments Are required to make a netherite Sword better than a stone axe

[@thylacinegamer6314]

@@AuroraNuyen-oh4bf If you are talking about dps then yeah you would need enchantments, but I'd still take a unenchanted netherite sword over an enchanted stone axe due to the swords much higher durability. Or just get a netherite axe. much higher dps and much more durability.

[@maximusdavis]

i think the reason why axe seemingly has lower durability is you can still use it as a weapon, but if you use it like a weapon instead of a tool, it will take 2 durability damage instead of 1

[@i_dont_know_frfr]

not to mention that using tools for an unintended purpose like axes for pvp or shovels for wood makes them lose twice as much durability

[@stevenclover415]

@@thylacinegamer6314 Be careful with the words you use, DPS means damage per second and if you were to measure DPS side by side of a netherite sword and axe, the netherite sword has a DPS of 12.8 oppose to the axe's DPS of 10. This is due to attack speed

[@cyansphere3394]

28:48 Allow me to share one of my trick. It is fine to build 2 block tall rooms, but remember to build roof and floor with slabs. It not only save your materials, but also make your room practically 2.5 blocks tall, allow you to pile up two chests in a two-block tall room without problems in open the upper one.

[@KageToHikari_CG]

All my first houses back in 2012 had 2 meters high ceilings, imagine a two storey house which is 6 blocks high :D

[@mysteriousluck]

The mason has a pretty op trade early game considering how fast you can gather clay if you know how to do it.

[@IsHaltWernerr]

Especially witch lush caves

[@Ducky_Dux]

“Not about the amount of wood you have, its how you use it”

[@DannyWinsatLifeYT]

Double meaning

[@danny_cookie]

That first one is advice to live by. In every world I always end up creating a huge room (about 15x15x6) with 24 double chests on each side of the room to hold all my things, labeled with signs. I always have an easy time finding things and putting things away thanks to this sort of storage system standard I've established for myself

[@ZendilofRealms]

My knowledge is no longer from school, it's from this genius man

[@maroonsunshinelaura]

Another awesome thing about Stonemasons is that is you go to a lush cave with a shovel, you can rack up a full inventory of clay within minutes Then go and trade with them, and you'll get around 20 levels and a stack or two of emeralds It's my favourite early-game experience/emerald farming method! Personally what i do is i also bring a Boat with Chest to get 2 inventories And combining that with the ender chest and shulker box trick, you can carry *81* inventories of clay with you! i have to try that eventually...

Lava's also renewable through a command now, by the way. Works just like water, so a simple 1x3 or 2x2 space gives infinite lava.

[@CeceliaMcCreary-vw8eu]

The Stone Axe > Netherite Sword is a Java only feature. Since Bedrock never got the Combat Update, Java has many advantages, such as off-hand wielding, Sweeping Edge, and Axe buffs.

[@The_Real_Tib]

Idk, i always used the f3+n for switching between creative and spectator. It is just faster

Skip: Getting blocks like quartz is hard. Also Skip: Quartz is a great way to get exp because there is a lot of it.

[@TheMxchaBear]

I always get enchanted fishing rods from just a regular fishing rod

[@GabePuratekuta]

And then you use regular fishing rods to repair the enchanted ones.

[@CosmicAggressor]

Man. I always set my worlds so that only a quarter of the players have to sleep even if it is a singleplayer world. That way if you are on some smp with friends you only need 2 or 3 people sleeping instead of the entire damned server.

[@electronekaidrenshock7974]

Necessity and usefulness of organising is easily leveled out by my laziness and good memory.

[@quarantineclub3638]

Back in one of the earlier updates(pre nether update updates) I fished up a fortune 3, luck of the sea 2, and mending fishing rod with a basic one once.

[@MuiTanIsMyLife]

Thanks for the tips man appreciate it

[@Its_Versus]

there really are an infinite amount of things to learn from this game

[@Jerrysteward59]

I found that just two unwanted villager type are the key to having Beacon pyramid loads of emeralds. Fletchers and fishermen who if you get the right ones you can sell them sticks from mega Tegra tree farms and or fish stockpiles from fishing. PS if you put a chestboat on a hopper system while fishing on it you git a huge inventory for dumping extra items while farming mending books. takes IRL days but worth it in a grindstone in EXP and unwanted enchanted book for enchanting tables. takes about 8 mending book armor and basic tools. fishing rods will come to you as well with stacking enchantments. making the idea the fishing literally self efficient. and while fishing your minding enchanted armor repairs itself. sell excess.

[@mracceleratorfard5347]

i surely wont avoid them now! thx for the tips

[@noyz-anything]

1. i usually have a sorted chest array (in a side room or away from my house) and an unsorted chest array (in my house, in an obvious location, usually in the living room) so i know where 256 blocks of cobblestone are when i need them but i don't have to sort out everything every time my inventory fills

[@ks_palerider94]

Are we gonna talk about how he said that mud was shorter than a full block and it turns out it's taller?

[@Tp_OverHeat]

visually, its taller

[@ashleyhamman]

I'm surprised by a lot of these, not because it's new info or anything, but I'm surprised they're things people don't do.

11:34 its usualy a massive fight against 50 mobs so people cant sleep when theyre fighting because if they get hit they wake up 28:40 endermen teleporting in front of you while you mine it out is way worse and youre faster in a 2 block rather than the 3 block

besides for crops what is the use of having fortune on an axe?

[@Goofy_Ahh_Productions_15]

Just want to say that number 49 actually comes from the combat handbook on page 35("updated edition"). 22:40

putting vines on your base would just make your base look more like luigi's mansion dark moons haunted towers if anything overtime.

16:18 - it's a building sin, that ESPECIALLY Grian is guilty of 😆

I’d suggest 2.5 blocks tall rooms in houses instead of 3 unless you want potential endermen in your home. I say as someone that always makes my ceilings tall lol.

[@chicken_playz2420]

btw about the chest illusion with signs: its connected to the hinge. i have no explanation for the fences or anything.

[@GabePuratekuta]

If only a fraction of this stuff was doable in Bedrock... Also, what's wrong with auto-jump?

[@MaxLai_0104]

it automatically jumps, even when you don't want it. it can also be unreliable

I like 3 block tall builds or more. Especially when it rains cause then i can get a house guest. I also try to get a zombie piglin as a room mate much quieter then villagers.

[@GeOrg-vy3uv]

This man doesent run out of ideas. I’m not joking.

[@idioticchildlikebeing]

FYI, for gamemodes you should be able to just type 1, 2, 3, or 4 to switch, and just typing the first letter should work as well. but I will admit it's still quicker to use f3+f4 to switch.

[@zagorkupski9836]

Not in the newer versions, the numbers can't be used with the /gamemode command anymore, and I still don't know why Mojang removed that feature.

[@astral_aon]

For the lights you can also use slabs. Dig 2 blocks down or up place light source, torch or glowstone. Then a slab even with the floor or ceiling and now you have lights without ever seeing them.

Only works on bedrock though

[@izenai3122]

Stone Masons are Our favorite. We get alot of xp from mining quartz, particularly if We do so while mining for netherite. Then gain emeralds and more xp by trading quartz. And depending on how many stone mason Comrades We Putin Our trading hall (🗿) it doesnt take long to not need to keep stockpiling them; so most new emerald stacks trade for more xp and master villagers. 3 for one side hustle to keep the netherite grind bearable.

[@PicklyFellow]

For the Stone Mason villager if you have lush cave the infinite amount of clay there would give you infinite emeralds from trading
