I Beat HARDCORE Minecraft for THIS Building Block! Episode 5

[@bakingbylizzy9273]

For the iron farm, You could have a daylight sensor so that when its night, the trapdoor closes and the villagers can sleep.

[@laurelwillow]

the trouble with this is that the villagers will then just sleep all night and won't produce any iron golems half the time. I suppose if you're sleeping every night that wouldn't be too much of an issue? but eventually you're going to have times (like this episode) where you don't sleep for one reason or another, and they won't produce any iron during that time. Bit of a waste.

[@charefeddinebenamara907]

She can make a clock that is triggered by a daylight sensor that closes the trapdoors for a few ticks. But this is too bulky of a solution. The community designed much better farms.

[@lasercraft32]

in my experience, the iron farms are actually faster at night, since they need to sleep in order to spawn more golems, but can't spawn them _while_ sleeping. So at night they lie in bed, get spooked and get out of bed, and repeat over and over which makes the golems more likely to spawn.

[@erin.anderson]

Mostly just practice. It's a skill that you can build up over time. You can start by emulating other things that you like, and eventually just start playing with changing things, and figuring out what you like and don't like, so you can put them together in your own combinations.

I used to think of purpur to be a kind of ugly block that was never really for building, but then you built those awesome stairs in empires smp season 1 using copper+purpur in a gradient and it was so cool! It opened my eyes to how inventive u could get with block pallettes! Love the video, very excited to see what you make next in the village!

[@ninjacat2123]

The thing that I like about vanilla tweaks is that most of the things on there just enhance the game rather than taking away from the vanilla experience. I think adding those is a great thing for recording!

[@Abzanafenza]

"I don't need a respawn point because it's hardcore" is true except when you're entering the End dimension

[@one_hoop]

You don't have to repair the bows for dispensers, the broken bows just won't work with the recipe book. But since the bows don't stack for the recipe book, I prefer to shift-click the dropper recipe anyway and then shift-click the (broken) bows into the middle. I was getting a little sickened when you were talking about purpur but then, when you showed it with your gradient, I was like, "Well done!"

[@JamesBea-they]

Maybe you could set up armor stands by your portal again like your 1.16 hardcore series, you seemed to forget gold less often 💛

gemini I just love you so much, you bring a sense of wonderment back to Minecraft, and every time you build it's like you've just discovered the blocks for the first time and it just inspires me every single time. love you so much !!

[@FredericoLohmannJr]

As a new subscriber (a few weeks now) I know I'm loving Gem's content because I feel sad every time a video ends. Not a fan of hard modded Minecraft, but totally ok with quality of life tweaks (I use MiniHUD myself, mostly for location and illumination). I especially love this series, mostly because of the progressive grown of everything ("lore", buildings, equipment, feelings). I hope for a new Hardcore Skyblock One Block in the future, as it was the first series I watched here. I like the Hermitcraft stuff as well.

[@babydahl9424]

Thank you. I was very anxious and my blood pressure was really high but listening to your video helped calm me down enough that I think I can sleep now. Thank you.

I love ender dragon fights, especially when the player collects the breath. Like imagine just chilling in the end with your subjects and a tiny thing comes starts fighting you and then when you fight back the little thing collects breath and then finishes you off 😂

Nicely done, Gem! I still can't imagine killing an endermen for my first pearls without a boat, let alone multiple at once, in a hardcore world. Amazing!

[@humourlessjester3584]

For my iron farms I typically use either a flower pot to break line of sight or sea pickles because unlike slabs or trapdoors they allow for the villagers to see the zombie more often and they have a good balance of sleeping and getting scared. But the more reliable solution is to have the zombies bob up and down using water bubbles since you're not relying on AI.

[@searchfire3350]

You absolutely influenced me to play modded hardcore through your hardcore and new life series, so thanks for that! First time playing harcore and I got absolutely destroyed on my first attempt. But now I'm at the point where I'm one-shotting bosses and farming them for loot haha. Anyways, thank you for this series

Diamonds at 4:07! Love the videos! ❤

[@kyhleigh]

This vid has taught me more things about the end I didn't even know about and I've been playing for 10 years basically since I was 4 💀 love this video so much

[@erin.anderson]

Honestly, I really like your little sentry statue! It's really hard to make a statue in Minecraft at a small scale that looks that good! And I'm with you, purpur has historically been a little difficult to build with unless you did a pure End material palette, because very few overworld, or even nether, blocks matched it well. I think what the game needs now is some new blue blocks - the last few updates have skewed very warm toned for new blocks; time to balance it out.

[@kitten9352]

i really love how you genuinely just enjoy playing this game youre so lovely to watch!!!

[@karebear326]

I love how you stay very vanilla, that you use some extra for video purposes doesn't change the quality of the vanilla experience so i see no problem with it, in fact technically the extra is to improve our viewer experience so I appreciate the extra effort you put into it for our sake❤️😄 As someone who only play vanilla minecraft it is super inspiring to see you build with vanilla blocks since it sucks to not have the block when i want to build after being inspired by you so very happy you do vanilla minecraft ❤️🥰 Though lets just admit that minecraft needs to add bushy leaves to their vanilla minecraft, so much prettier🥰😂🙈

[@WrathieReign]

Purpur is one of my favorite blocks so I'm really glad to see one of my favorite minecraft youtubers/builders using it. A lot of people always think of it in the context of the end cities which can be kind of ugly (though I myself kind of like them) but used right they can be a really pretty and impactful block on builds!

[@isthiscer888]

26:08 You don't need the bows to have full durability to craft a dispenser! Also, i really like where this series is going! And i really admire your dedication to this, seeing as you have 3 active series currently and you update them all quite often, hope you're well and taking care of yourself tho! Good job!.

[@romeklole]

Heey gem! I have an idea for the other episode!! U should actually be the hero of the village by killing the raid,it's okay if Ur not ready. U will probably lose some villages but u have a breeding farm for villages! It's just if u want to do it byee!

[@MaiMuffins]

Somehow this video is actually helping me sleep. Minecraft is probably that relaxing and your voiceover is soothing as well.

[@dreamzerg]

I'm sure someone has already said it, but you can put your looting sword in your offhand and kill with your bow and still get the looting bonus too. Though it's pretty spooky on hardcore to drop your shield.

[@grant8653]

I love watching Gem's Minecraft but am I the only one that remembers Gem the most for just two words? Those words are Perfect Farm.... Gem's "Perfect farm" is 100% 1 of a kind. You would never mistake her saying those two words for anyone else.

[@alehzanderh]

The slab in the iron farm makes it so that the villagers almost never go into panicking mode. It really is a broken farm, and until Wattles fixes it - it's a better idea to use different ones. Still, the one I made on an SMP does work. Not always but it works enough for me to never worry about iron again. Switch the slabs for trap doors.

I love the resource packs I use a few of them myself. Also I personally don’t feel like this was too soon to go into the end, I usually defeat the dragon then raid end cities for shulkers, loot, & elytra on day 3-5 of a new world. Basically the minute I have protection 2 or better diamond armor I’m fighting the dragon, then I take the gateway into the outer end and I don’t go back until I have at least a few elytra and a stack+ of shulker shells.

[@livinginfictions]

i love that you're using some vanilla tweaks, honestly! Sometimes I wish people would play semi-modded minecraft without...it being about the mods? Like if you made a survival series that just Happened to have something in the background like farmer's delight? That'd be super fun, imo. Just adding to the world instead of having either SUPER strict vanilla, or Heavily Heavily modded. So, yes, vanilla tweaks is great and it's fun seeing you use the bushy leaves bc i use them too, so now your game looks even more like mine. XD

[@griffinscholl230]

A little tip I found out recently was gold tools have a higher enchant level, so if you put a gold sword in first and then put your diamond sword in to enchant, you should get better enchants

I would love to see a revamp of the enchanting system at some point. The current enchanting table mechanic is just so bad that I pretty much just ignore it and rely on Librarians. The new trim mechanic seems like it could be adapted to enchanting too. Keep the existing books as single use enchantments for loot and villagers, but add a new enchantment 'template' that could be used with the enchanting table.
