You cannot place traps to kill when you're alive, and only the dead team can attempt to assimilate the living. So don't kill Grian... Yet.

[@SuperMike2507]

if the " alive " can't trap, then this is going to be a long boring contest. Everybody is running around with unlimited totems, nobody is going to die of "natural causes" anytime soon.

[@DASPRiD]

Technically, the rules don't forbid that.

[@mcihay246]

@@DASPRiD I suppose not... but it all depends on whether Doc wants to test this out and risk a possible mistake that Grian or the other Hermits would've done earlier. Regardless if the rules don't specifically state something, it doesn't mean that nothing can be changed. For example, the addition of the Totems of Undying.

[@mcihay246]

@@SuperMike2507 Not necessarily boring... I'm sure certain fans of already rich Hermits can persuade the one they follow to join the dead team for the sole purpose of creating a massacre.

Basic rules of demise: -The only way to kill anyone while on the "living" team is if people die in your minigames. This means you can not set up traps, until after you die, but if your games kill people it's fair game... -Totems are allowed. -Elytra are allowed. -You are allowed to work with other members of the living team. -You can only use leather/ iron/ or gold armor enchanted any way you want. As a member of the dead team: -Your goal is simple: To help kill the living players. -PvP still is not allowed, but traps are. -You can work with other members of the dead team. General tips: -Most people are abusing Totems. The only way to successfully kill most Hermits is to kill them in a way their totems will not matter, or kill them in a situation they move their totem out of their offhand. -Some people are making safe houses that may or may not be trapped, so do what you will with that. Best Enchant Combo: -While protection in general may seem likely I have other thoughts in what will really cause death here. -Lava and explosions are likely to be the most likely killers of hermits in this. I suggest rocking Blast Protection and keep Fire Resist splash potions on you.

[@RyanEglitis]

Those are likely the intended rules, but they aren't the written rules.

[@ShiMusume]

@@RyanEglitis In the end the rules are how people have been playing the game. If you watch people have been restricting themselves not to prank until they die so that there is still fun that is different to be had if you die.

[@KalonOrdona2]

Need a trap that kills twice, to burn the totem first. :P

[@absolutelyrandom4978]

Actually, to be on the safe side, it'd be better making traps that kill the players three times. Eventually people might begin carrying a totem in both hands when they're just walking (or, people could have totem(s) in their hotbar and quickly switch to more totems as they're dying). Mainly saying this because Keralis and BDubz are now really tough to kill (thanks Xisuma XD).

[@ericklee3490]

I.e. scarify them

[@letitburn3327]

And go around removing beds

[@rfresa]

Too easy! You could really do some damage to any player by removing lights from their base, though. Except for Iskall's mushroom island.

[@Joker-fj8hg]

Sorry but this is just low effort. Doesn't fit Doc's style.

[@martijndekok]

Most Hermits in Demise that I saw have a pretty well enchanted set of iron or gold armour. Most have their wings, but 1 or 2 have their chest plate on. Most have a healthy set or totems. Cub just had leather head, leg and feet armour. No protection enchantments, but with binding curse. He has already lost the helmet in proving himself to he IMMORTAL. I believe nobody has died yet, but Scar also came back this week, so that won't be for long. LOL

But if he died, then he would want to "help" his living self not be alive any more... He'd better destroy all his time travel stuff before he bootstrap-paradox kills himself.

[@Tharena]

Bad news: no traps until you're on the dead team. Then you can help other players become dead via trapping. Recommend: a little bit of all the protections spread across each piece (ie fire on one piece, blast on another, etc) Welcome back. :)

[@8Mad8Hatter8Prime8]

well here are some strategies you may use: 1- Decoy bunker, build a safe room that will be targeted by the dead team. everyone is building a safeplace but eventually the bunkers will be a trap on the end game, since the game consist of the dead trapping the living, the more time passes the more oponents will be against you, so in order to take advantage of the ruels, team up with at least two more hermits, share a bunker that will be not your safe place, IT WILL NOT BE YOUR SAFE PLACE, so you protect together against tthe traps and other stuff but actually this will be a way to let the dead team know the in and out s of the decoy bunker. eventually one of your teammates will die due to a trap or normal gameplay and either they will come to get you or team with the rest of dead hermits. since you shared a decoy bunker you will then be able to move to your actual bunker and stall to the end game. 2- make a deal with a teammate, since the rules dosent prohibit the alligeances among living or dead teams, you can agree to let your teammate die in order to have him on the dead team. once there, you will have: an spy on the dead team, a way of taking out strong hermits on the end game and the fact that your safe place is known and protected by a friendly dead hermit. thisis not cheating since is a pre-death agreeement wich is not specified in the rules. in the end game it could be the difference between going all paranoid or having an early warning to avoid traps and tricks. 3-name mobs like you and plant them all around your base in secret locations in order to increase the chances of hiding your afk hiding spots, or to use them as Decoys in defensive traps to defend from invading dead hermits. this alone cant be a good strategy but if used sparingly it could make you difficult to locate and thus reduce the chances of gettting trapped. 4- lots of wolves, in case of the hermits using mobs to attack you and kill you, if you have lots of wolves laying around you could help you get rid of them quickly. 5- potion stations, hidden potions stations can be trapped if you are not careful but if you hid them cleverly you can get a quick buff in an stressful situation, also carry the three potions with you: fire resistance, speed, leaping, night vision and regen. if you fall in a trap this can give you a chance to survive. 6- carry blocks to place and other stuf to escape traps, water buckets, a stack of sand to fill lava pits, sheers to cutting cobwebs, a shield to avoid explosions, totem of undiying of course, 7- get hideouts in each dimension, either make them know that you have them to throw them off. butt a secret hideout on the nether or a end city, couod make you extra hard to get in the end game and possibly give you more chances to avoid getting killed since the dead team will have more players actively looking for the survivors and if you have a single place to hide, they will get you much easily than having multiple hideouts in the three dimensions. 8- hae totems of undiying in your off hand but also a milk bucket for cases of withering and poisoning via pufferfish and so on.

Doc, the rule is that you only can kill other players with traps if you died yourself already. As far as I know no one has died yet.

My internet kept crashing when I tried to watch the charity live stream 😭. But I’m so blown away by how much you were able to raise. This community really is amazing!

[@jamesanear3141]

Many people are making bunkers and secret pathways to various areas to protect themselves from traps. The first place to be trapped will be the nether and other common traveling areas. So your own custom routes is a good idea. For the bunkers, using “emergency beacons” that you can turn on and off is something one group is doing. Richer hermits are using tons of totems to basically be immortal. Don’t fall for the trap of playing mini games, people are trying to trick each other into playing dangerous ones to take each other out. Best of luck!!!

[@HeadCrusherBR]

DEMISE ARMOR: Helmet - Blast Protection for TNT traps, and Respiration+Aqua Affinity for drowning traps. Chestplate - Projectile Protection. Useful against mobs, as PVP is not allowed. As it is not essential, substituting with elytra when needed is not a problem. But who knows, dispensers full of arrows are a thing. Leggings - Fire Protection for lava traps. Boots - Protection to compensate the fact that it's not diamond, Feather Falling as you already did, and Depth Strider for drowning traps. Oh, and of course, Unbreaking. Also, useful items to carry around: buckets of milk, water, potions, golden carrots, golden apples, ender pearls, chorus fruits, totems, blast-resistant blocks, etc.

[@P5Y-]

G S M all sounds good to me, though I’d go for another protection 4 over projectile, just not as worried about that personally...

[@HeadCrusherBR]

@@P5Y- Seems reasonable

[@SuperMike2507]

you will need to design traps with totems in mind. They will need to activate twice, once to activate the totem, the second time to kill the player before he gets a chance to get a new totem.

[@sharpfang]

...or apply continuous damage. Say, a pit with a pressure plate on the bottom that activates an RS latch starting a clock powering 8 arrow dispensers around the pit. (nobody bothered with projectile protection!)

[@ManateeGag]

from what I understand of the Demise rules, you can't trap anyone until you're dead. no one has died yet (that I know of) so you don't have to worry about traps yet.

[@James_XXIY_crafts]

Minecraft never forgets. that is appropriate, for something I did back in Minecraft when it had a set number of worlds you could have. I build a desert castle, and when I deleted the world it was still there, no matter how many times I deleted the save, sometimes in Ruins, sometimes untouched.

[@RyanEglitis]

A good trap is on someone's water quick-drop chute: add a sign under the water block, and then remove the rest of the blocks down to bedrock. They'll fall down right through the water to their demise.

Use Blast protection and Protection for tnt and creepers and maybe some Projectile if Mumbo hooks up some rapid arrow rain.

[@sharpfang]

Water breathing, Protection, Blast protection, Fire Protection. Optionally depth strider and aqua affinity. Have a splash fire resistance potion on your hotbar at all times. Have a water breathing potion in your inventory. Enderpearls strongly recommended, also a golden apple. And obviously totems.

[@jbunny-30harris61]

Fire resistant. Mending Protection Anything to give you the best chance to survive. Also a few hermits are making demise bunkers, so maybe having a safe spot would be a good idea.

[@shade9592]

I know that having a totem in your offhand is important but a shield still offers the best protection against potentially dangerous mobs like creepers, having one in your hotbar allows you to quickly equip it in case of emergencies. Also, when it comes to traps, mob based traps allow you to inflict a continuous barrage of damage potentially eclipsing the effects of a totem. Johnnies inflict a ridiculous amount of dps, but can be dangerous to wrangle, zombie pigmen inflict a very similar amount and are safe but neutral. Imbedding a skeleton into a group of zombie pigmen can turn the group hostile. The skeleton will shoot the pigmen, and the pigmen will quickly dispatch of it and then turn on the player. A benefit to this method is that you don't need nametags to keep your mobs from despawning, just carved pumpkins. A downside to mob traps is the fact that the player can run away but that can be remedied by walling them in and slowing them down with a slowness potion. An elder guardian can be used to give your target mining fatigue and keep them from mining out.

[@fahrenheit016]

Thumbs up for Mr. Docm77 - The original technical Minecrafter, a legend!

[@adamneitzke]

I think the best enchants are pure protection IV and then carry a fire potion with you. Although if you get snuck up on by creepers a lot, maybe add a blast protection on one instead

[@PredictedCyborg]

Ah, so THAT'S how you managed to get back for that gameshow... xD;

[@painapple154]

I think Blast Protection and Fire Protection will be a thing. Most traps will probably be with Lava and TNT. Also potions of fire resistance you can drink if you fall in lava, slow falling in case you get yeeted in the air. More totems if you can afford them (; I guess most hermits have the same basic ideas and strategies about this, even though some are more likely to risk dying than others

[@pesegolsson]

Hat:respiration, plate:blast protection or projectile protection, lederhosen:fire protection

[@helixgamer8894]

well since you wanted us to tell you about the rules: YOU‘RE NOT SUPPOSED TO TRAP ANYONE WHILE YOU ARE STILL ALIVE! Also I think testing traps is more exciting than building a bunker.

[@abramthiessen8749]

Blast IV and Protection otherwise. Fire can be protected against with potions and water on the hotbar. Suffocation and falling into the void are the best traps since they can't be easily defended against. Just requires a little bedrock breaking in the overworld or nether. Though you have to integrate it into a minigame or wait till you are on the dead team.

[@jessc5719]

Most of the Hermits are creating bunkers for various reasons, Cleo has decided to go into hiding, and Joe has been lighting up dangerous areas. Cub's declared himself Mr. Invincible and fought the Dragon and the Whither. So it's up to you how you want to approach Demise. Since nobody's died yet, it's really anybody's game right now.

[@gergo2875]

Doc after travelling 4 weeks in a boat "Ahhh, my middle-finger hurts"

[@eleazarpyscher8569]

Blast IV on boots, Fire IV on leggings and Protection IV on helmet. Once you die, make a instakill trap that goes beyond totem of undying perks ( all at once potion, arrows, lava, magma block, etc)

contact xisuma and get double chests full of shulkers full of totems. Then create a base thousands of blocks out on the nether roof stockpiled with food, potions, and totems. Make a portal to the overworld, set up a hidden base there, and use pearls to glitch through the bedrock the next time you come up.

[@lordelliott42]

If you die, make at least one trap that shoots a bunch of instant damage potions. The good thing about those is that you can put them in places you wouldn't want to use TNT. A pitfall that isn't lethal followed by an anvil might be a easy way to get someone with it.

Hey Doc, welcome back! In the Demise Game you can only build traps if you are already dead. Since totems of undying are allowed nobody has died yet. (And i think this won't really change until totems are banned)

[@optinickprime]

Protection is by far the best, its made for all things! Its saved me from dying from lava alot, its good for alot of things!

[@beanswater]

I think one blast protection and the rest protection is the best combination. You dont really need fire protection with a totem and you just need to bring a fire resist potion just in case. For projectile protection, just use a shield instead.

[@disturbed_puppy]

You should put blast protection on everything to protect from creepers and TNT traps. Carry a fire resistance potion everywhere for lava mishaps.

[@letitburn3327]

When on the dead team, tripwire the nether iceways making a trap drooping you into lava and closing the blocks at a non minabale distance

[@alanbeardsley8346]

[@NitroNova]

I suggest that you put on some blast protection on one piece, fire protection on another and protection on the other two. Blast and Fire protection will be really useful when the first hermit dies because they are probably going to use tnt traps or lava traps

[@YairVich]

If you are alive you can't place traps but you can make them do risjy things like grain did, he built a minigame that if you complete risky task you get 50 DIAMONDS, also suggest taking blast protection on panylts because trap might be with TNT

[@milohobo9186]

The best trap is a drowning trap, because a totem does not give you water breathing, avoids protection and armor, and people will mine slower to get out of the trap. To make it extra deadly, find yourself an elder guardian and set the trap in an obsidian box.

[@TFirsty]

the docm77 timeline is 7 years in the making.

[@JenInMinecraft]

2 fire IV protection armor, 1 Prot IV and 1 Blast IV. EDIT: Then again, there's the Fire Resist potions (doesn't Protection cover ALL damage types? If not, then maybe blast protection). Best trap would probably be to have an Elder Guardian below a drop-chute encased in obsidian, and maybe dispense TNT - or anvil - when the player passes a tripwire hook).

[@dhdbdbdhdj520]

A good trap would be to get a hermit into a room and have a few dispensers throwing potions of instant harming, then it doesn’t matter how many totems they have as you’d be constantly doing damage
