You can also get a similar effect to branch mining by simply doing a several long straight mine tunnels with two blocks width separating them

[@fadillah6014]

Also we can see what Minecraft world gen can offer.

[@wsleet]

yeah, plus it is less repetitive.

[@l692]

Before caves and cliffs I would strip mine but not anymore. I find that getting diamonds is so much faster in caves, especially if I have an elytra/ fireworks and night vision potions. It's much more entertaining and as deepslate takes that bit longer to break, I can't be bothered with strip mining that.

[@MrTyler189]

It is tedious

[@bobBob-oz5zc]

@@l692 That’s funny cause strip mining is BETTER than cave mining since Caves and Cliffs. They made it so that diamonds have reduced spawn chances when a side of the diamond ore block is touching air. Meaning you’ll get less diamonds exploring a cave then strip mining.

[@jvseventeen]

The way I play now, mostly cave mining, but I do like a good hole in the ground, so strip mining can be fun as well to spice it up. "My goals are beyond your understanding" on the other hand, I felt really targeted by lol because that's how I always used to play, and occasionally still do. I'll just dig tunnels til I find something, dig another random tunnel, occasionally get excited because I think I found something cool, turns out it's just my own tunnels again 😅

[@EmperorZarikar]

I’ve been accused of using X-ray several times, but a single look at all the diamonds I’ve missed reveals exactly what kinda miner I am.

[@ReggieMarshale]

There is a strategy to maximize the chance of finding ores (using maths). The method is to mine in a grid with 4x11 block gaps. As most ore veins are 3 block wide there is a very good chance that you’ll find some diamonds (I got this from the MC wiki)

[@HuntingSunder]

Definitely a 'my goals are beyond your understanding' person. If I get bored while digging I just turn to mix things up.

[@Anime_101]

God my mining style changes the deeper u go, it starts straight line, turns to branch, then to strip miner, my goals are beyond your understanding, and ends at cave miners, I have mined this way since 2014 and I have no idea why (although sometimes the order will be a bit different but for the most part follows that pattern)

My method requires a high lvl efficiency pick, but the end result is me panning left and right in a forward direction. Idk if it's called windshield wiping or sweeping, but it works for me.

@@KINGSLAYERTURBO ye but that's what anvils and iron pickaxes are always for, and if we get low on exp, we pause the mining for a lil and start killing mobs or collect some of the coal we might've missed.

[@aaronjaeger6861]

I usually start out with a vertical shaft either 3*3 or 5*5 with the center on a location where the x,z coordinates both end in 00. Once I reach y-11 I dig 3*3 tunnels North, South, East and West 100 blocks in each direction till I end up with a giant 2*2 grid. I then straight mine each grid with horizontal shafts 2 high 1 wide spaced two three blocks apart.

Pro tip :- If you want to stop any zombie from despawning but you don't have any nametag, you can give zombie anything which he can hold in his hand like any block, tool, armour piece, etc thing in Minecraft

[@Starjumper2821]

Doesn't always work. Zombies require a tag to hold dropped items and only spawn with a 10% chance of having it.

[@explicitreverberation9826]

If anything despawns I'll just respawn it from its egg and then go back to whatever I was doing lmao. These survival fools..

[@MoonyFBM]

Straight line mining is fine if you start from a central location and do a new line every 3 blocks. Sometimes you'll get stuff you miss when doing just poke holes.

[@Manny-zk4xe]

I've got one for you, though it has two parts. The Patient/Methodical Miner: Finds the diamonds and takes only enough to make a Pickaxe and Enchanting Table. Then leaves the rest there until they have a Fortune III or Silk Touch Pick. After Enchanting they: 1) Return to the diamonds to mine the ore with a Silk Pick to take to the surface, store the ore for later, or place the ore to then mine it all again but this time with a Fortune Pick. 2) Takes the Fortune Pick into the mines first to get enough diamonds for gear, then uses Silk Touch before placing the ore storage to keep for later use.

[@pyrosnineActual]

I personally dig a 3x3 square, that way the mineshaft doubles as an underground passage, and has more surface to expose. Obviously, it's easier to do in modded Minecraft with a hammer, but it still is my go-to method without a hammer.

[@samfish90212]

I'm a strip miner. Love spending time just mining away. Hours of digging giant holes. Never once thought to use a minecart and powered rails, though.

[@aviancoleslaw]

Very true. I'm in the branch mining category, but my branches tend to go on until I hit lava.

[@SuperBupDX]

Nobody ever talks about how i used to do it, i called it grid mining. It was diging 4 blocks to the side after getting to y 11, then digging 3 forward then to the other side then back to the entrance leaving 8 blocks, it revealed more blocks on the top and bottom in-between the strips. However since caves are so much bigger, caving is the best way now, but now i have to wonder. How many diamonds are being deleted by the giant cave rooms?

[@professionalkek8937]

Do you mean in a T shape or what exactly do you mean by 3 forward then to the side? Sounds like a good strategy to me

[@Gandorhar]

I used to love doing these huge quarry type mines like the "stripmine enjoyer" and then build something in them after im done, gotta do that again now that there is so much more depth.

[@lightfiendish]

grid mining is the best. you open up chunk borders and mine on the edge of chunks in a grid pattern

[@EclipseShadowScale]

my goals are beyond your understanding reminds me of when i would turn any time i encountered dirt or gravel, but otherwise mined straight

[@TheGnarlyPigeon]

I cave mine whenever I find a cave system. I typically also keep a strip mine under my house so that I can mine safely when I want, as well as have a steady source of cobblestone.

[@sceera1]

Then there's me, digging a 3x3 tunnel in a straight line with no branching.

Im probably not getting into the spirit of things but after the enchanting table I tend to (ab)use villagers for diamond gear, and re-enchant it optimally. By that time I can just pickup whatver diamonds I find in chests for things like a jukebox.

[@Redbeedrill]

when you branch you gotta do 2 spaces so you don't miss the inbetween stuff

Cmbine straight and branch mining by mining in a zig-zag pattern: X blocks forward, some blocks to the right to the side, dig back X blocks parallel to the original tunnel with two blocks seperating the two tunnels.

I’m a branch miner who often does my branch mining before I have anything enchanted, so I typically leave the diamonds in the mine and clear out around the entire pile of ores, then take a couple diamonds with me upstairs and come back for the rest a little later. Also ensures I don’t drop lava on myself while mining the diamonds 🤣
