I Mined for 12 hours in Minecraft

In this Mumbo Jumbo Hermitcraft episode, I mine for 12 hours in Minecraft. Welcome to Episode 10 of Hermitcraft season 10, and today I discovered I'm super poor, so I am working to change that. I go caving, mine with a beacon, and even make use of underwater caves to essentially play in creative mode in survival!

So it turns out I don't understand how caving works in 1.20. The updates to ore generation have gone back and forth so much that I am lost! But as far as I can tell; diamonds used to spawn LESS when exposed to air, then they increased it (This is where I got confused), at one point Diamonds would generate a lot in water caves as water isn't air but they might have fixed that, and I'm not sure at which stage of this pipeline the Season started at.

Ore spawn rates (especially diamond) are actually increased underwater, because they have less a likelihood to spawn when in contact with an air block. But in the flooded caves, there is no air! It is statistically one of the best strategies :)

Actually in the latest update - the one HC is on at least, Cub has said that the Diamond Air change was reverted

[@themagicman120]

I thought the diamond touching air blocks mechanic was reverted?

[@kairon5249]

Im pretty sure the decreased spawning likelihood from air blocks still applies here, as the water is just added after all the diamond spawning calculations have finished, this is specifically cave aquifers

As a sea cave miner, I find it alot easier and safer than normal cave mining, also due to the water you save time pillaring to roof diamonds and don't need to spend time fighting mobs so you can spend more time doing actual mining

I LOVE how he has written ”exposure increased by 2 stops in post” like it’s recorded with a cine camera! True Mumbo cinematographer style!

[@AndiFels]

Ah, I didn't know what it meant. Thanks!

[@randomperson8994]

i understand that now! 😂

[@affetheman]

I can explain a bit more in-depth: an f-(or t- I think)stop is basically a setting on a camera (lens) which decides how much light the camera (lens) will take in. By increasing the exposure 2 stops (e.g. going from f5.6 to f3.5) you open the lens up to take in more light and thus the image becomes brighter. I would imagine that this is just a setting in DaVinci Resolve or that it’s just a normal exposure slider and he just wrote that instead because he’s nerdy. Congratulations on reading a half-making-sense text wall about camera(lens)s!

[@malt2301]

Exposure on cameras changes how much time the camera sensor is exposed to the light. Longer exposure makes the image brigther as the sensor senses the light over a longer period. An exposure setting in an editing software wouldn't really make sense as the exposure time can't ever be changed after a recording. Brightness would be the logical name instead, but exposure sure sounds cooler.

[@affetheman]

Oh yeah, I’m right out stupid. It’s called aperture, not exposure. But there aren’t exposure ”stops” are there?

[@gricklegrass100]

When we watch 27 hermits all day, we forget the challenges of SMP. It was great to watch a high caliber hermit struggling with resource gathering the same way I do. I love the direction this season is going and that doesn't detract from your beautiful megabuild last season. Keep up the good work mate.

[@toadfrommario]

SO the way diamond ore generation works, as i understand it or read a while ago: diamonds spawn more frequently when exposed to air, but spawn in larger veins when not exposed to air. this is why in caves you get a lot of singular diamond veins vs larger veins when strip-mining. BUT underwater caves are funky, because the cave generation is exposing more diamonds to player view, BUT they are spawning in larger veins because they aren't exposed to air. this is why underwater mining is probably the best way to find diamond in the current version of minecraft imo

[@SouradiptaPlays]

Boosting this comment a little, so everyone sees this! Thanks, tbh I actually didn't know that diamonds work like that :)

[@manavshah8335]

gimmi those balls

[@letcreate123]

Incorrect. Diamond ore veins are about the same size range regardless of air exposure or not, it's just that they have a chance to not spawn if exposed to air.

[@akioaihara]

Mumbo is probably the first gaming youtuber to put "*exposure increased by 2 stops in post" into his gaming video. Filmmaker mindset coming through and I am all for it!

[@akioaihara]

@@murasakibalker4597 The aperture of a camera is usually indicated by numbers called f-stops. One f-stop higher means the aperture lets in twice as much light, making your foto/video brighter. Post means postproduction, so not when the video was actually taken but when you edit in with a software. Basically its a really fancy (and accurate) way of saying the footage was made 4 times brighter than the the actual footage he recorded. Hope thats understandable :)

[@apollo4950]

5:02 - It's actually the other way around, diamonds are more likely to *not* be exposed to air. That's part of the reason that underwater caves are so profitable, as water isn't air so more diamonds spawn.

[@kairon5249]

him getting this wrong messed up all his expeditions - he went searching for caves instead of strip mining or tunnel boring, believing caves to be significantly more efficient

[@evil.zombie.]

this change was reverted

[@valhunter97]

I don't think it was fully reverted. Diamond veins exposed to air are still smaller on average. But yeah, it was way worse when big caves and deepslate layer were just introduced.

[@kezzyhko]

@@evil.zombie. TL;DR: the changes were basically delayed, but they are present in the latest versions According to minecraft wiki, the changes were made in 1.17 snapshots, then reverted before 1.17 release so 1.17 does not have this changes. But then they were reintroduced in 1.18, so 1.18 has this change.

@@darknesswave100 The Warden is easy to avoid. Once he starts climbing out of the ground, just run in the opposite direction. I think it's range of detecting a player is as little as 14 blocks, but I usually just run until the Darkness effect goes away, which puts you well outside its range.

[@s_gaming71]

maybe you would enjoy using a Turtle Shell helmet for such diving expeditions They grant you 10 second of water breathing every time you get some air, so anytime you surface or use like a hole or door to breath, you will reset the 10 seconds. I find it very useful and with it I can basically stay underwater safely pretty easily

_Tips for finding ores:_ *GENERAL:* 1. When you go mining, bring a bunch of night vision potions. This will reduce the need for torches and help you find ores on walls and ceilings. 2. If you find a deep crevasse in an ocean, dig beneath its deepest point. There is a decent chance you will find a larger cave below. *DIAMOND:* 1. In Java Edition 1.20.2, diamonds were made significantly more common. If you are playing in a world created before then, go to newly generated terrain before looking for diamonds. 2. 5:03 Mumbo is not correct here; diamonds actually have slightly _reduced_ air exposure. However, caving is still the best strategy due to the sheer number of blocks the cave exposes. 3. Underwater mining will actually grant you more diamonds. This is because the "reduced air exposure" rule does not apply in water. *IRON AND COAL:* 1. Iron and coal spawn abundantly at high altitudes. For this reason, you should look for a stony peaks biome to mine these ores. Stony peaks are found in warmer biomes, such as savannas and jungles. *COPPER:* 1. Dripstone caves contain twice as much copper as other biomes, so they are _the key_ to getting a ton of copper. *GOLD:* 1. Badlands biomes above Y=32 contain an absurd amount of gold. *LAPIS:* 1. You will find the most lapis ore at the transition between stone and deepslate.

[@huaiscrblol5077]

[@mmcrazy_]

Also, diamonds have a chance not to generate in when they are touching a block of air, but water is not air, so water caves have more diamonds.

[@Patchnote2.0]

Night vision potions are highly recommended when lighting up the caves is optional (i.e. not near mob grinders). You'd be surprised how easy it is to miss diamonds on dark ceilings, especially if you play without zoom.

[@keegie_creeper146]

the underwater caves are in fact the most op source for diamonds, I have been abusing that feature since 1.18 came out. They don't spawn enemies and the limited diamond ore spawn rate when in contact with air does not come into play either

[@alchmar9837]

Another good thing about underwater mining: Veins and diamonds especially don’t count as exposed, since there’s no air, meaning that veins are bigger and more common

[@GoblinGaiety]

water-filled caverns are the best for ore mining for two reasons: 1. no hostile mobs (unless you're in a dripstone cave, in which drowned spawn) 2. the generation of ores is such that it avoids generating ores exposed to the surface/air. so in regular caves you wont see as many ores. but water is not considered surface/air. so there's tons of ores easy to spot and mine in water-filled caves. a few weeks ago in my SP world I went mining in water filled caverns under the ocean, and using silk touch, and only spending a couple of hours down there, I got over a stack of diamond ore blocks. also I reccomend using night vision potions while you do so, makes the water a lot clearer and brighter, and you can spot ores from further away

Mumbo you can still find your stuff if you craft a DEATH FINDER COMPASS (i forgot the exact name) but its a compass that points to your last death location

[@TAGfrost]

Hey Mambo for future videos, I recommend going to the nether getting some nether wart and blaze rods, wrapping a carrot in gold, I can't remember if Redstone is for power or length but *Brew yourself a few **_Night Vision_** potions.*

[@lironariely9156]

"the sun has just come out" - Mumbo, at what time do you start playing??? that was said 7 hours in was that an all-nighter???🤣

[@horizonpenblade1288]

From behind a cloud, i think

[@lironariely9156]

That is a very stereotypical british thing@@horizonpenblade1288

either there's going to be another ore tower war, or mumbo is going to make another vault

[@isaacglenn3734]

Mining red stone underwater is like a flashbang holy

[@kennythegamer1]

The Aquatic Update made underwater mining great especially with night vision and maybe water breathing; Caves & Cliffs made it even better with bigger caves/ravines and aquifers being under land.

[@alicechapman2513]

genuinely the most riveted ive been to a mumbo video (no shade), the twists! the drama! the plotline! incredible watch

[@oreotrollturbo]

Fun fact about water caves : Diamonds are programmed to generate way less when one or more sides are exposed to air . But water doesen't count so there's actually more diamonds in water caves

[@lepsnexus6893]

Mumbo Jumbo last episode: I'm not poor, I'm taking it slow!! Mumbo Jumbo this episode:

[@ChaoticAu-ll1fw]

I always love to keep server playlists on, it’s not only calming but the progression that unfolds over the first few episodes.

[@menosproblemos6993]

Video creators: I need to do some offscreen mining. Mumbo: Then I'm going to make a whole episode about mining. You are naturally chaotic, Mumbo. A wild card of functional society.

[@CraftingCat_IX]

17:32 That creeper blowing up the diamonds hurt my soul.

[@PranavDhote_]

7:47 No way he did that! He mined the stone diamond ore with fortune!!! Mumbo!!!!

[@duckified.]

stone diamond isn't really rare. you just have to go strip mining with a haste 2 beacon at the bottom of the stone layer and you'll find some within a few minutes

[@rudrodeepchatterjee]

With open cave systems, stone diamond ore is much more common than you think. It's the deepslate coal and deepslate emerald that's the real deal now.

[@abdulrahmanmohammed2441]

Mumbo:being happy about his finds Scar: *laughing in the corner*

[@TrueThanny]

If you want to focus on diamonds and redstone, then your best bet is a tunnel bore. A twelve-wide tunnel bore (the same design you've used in the past) at the correct depth will get way more redstone and diamonds in 12 hours than you got from caving. And a lot of cobbled deepslate, if you need that for building. The only real downside is that you'd have to first collect 36 netherite ores (3 per module), which can take some time. You could build a single tunnel bore in the nether after finding three, then use that to find more, expanding to additional modules as you find more. That would greatly speed up the process.

[@ShamIsClueless]

Mumbo Mate.... I think you've finally gone crazy xD all that time around Grian and Scar has really gotten to you now..

[@SantaKidGT]

Nah mate he went crazy years ago when he started red stone

[@dojelnotmyrealname4018]

I mean he did 100 days in season 7 I believe. For reference, that's somewhere between 16 and 33 hours depending on how much got slept through.

[@nameredacted6221]

Mumbo and Scar need to have an official competition to find who is the richest hermit, I swear they both claim to be it every season lol

[@pallavparmar9818]

Scar has over 81 stacks worth of diamonds while Mumbo has about 15 stacks. Mumbo mentioned the fact he only mined diamonds for 8 hours and he spent 3 stacks of diamonds. Meaning he averages 144 diamonds an hour(probably less because I should account for his spending and the fact he would still gain a little bit of diamonds during the 4 hours he wasn’t going for diamonds, but I’ll be favourable to him). So mumbos 29.5 hours of mining away from catching upto scar, assuming scar does no more mining himself.

[@goldenproductions9038]

Everyone knows it’s doc, tho

[@jeshcar]

​@@pallavparmar9818makes since. Scar was sick and didn't feel like recording during it which gave him more time to and energy to just mine

[@dubinmarks1]

But we all know who the real GOAT is

[@pallavparmar9818]

@@goldenproductions9038 doc doesn’t care for diamonds since he can semi automatically farm them and they serve little to no purpose espically when he can just make a farm for almost everything each Hermit sells. However, since sand dupers are banned on the server, he cares for sand as seen in him charging sand as currency in his shops.

[@SlaySami]

I absolutely LOVE underwater mining, I started doing it when the aquatic update came out and haven't stopped ever since, every time i see a body of water i dive right in for any goodies i may find and it's a near 80% success rate that I'll find diamonds every time 😂

[@jenniferm.2142]

Cub did a video not too long again about great mining in the new caves. I recommend. Basically go to level -54 and mine in a straight line until you hit a cave. Then pop a night vision potion and run around collecting all the diamonds. Rinse repeat.

[@BlahCraft1]

8:30 IDK Mumbo, I'm pretty sure that by the time Scar takes down Ore Mountain, it'll be half as wide, and riddled with caves.

[@AlextheLordofFire]

13:40 Mumbo, there is an item in minecraft specifically added for issues such as this xD

[@georgegardner8694]

Keralis calling Mumbo MJ is honestly the funniest part of the video😂😂

[@arahelenasophiezimlingwest8765]

I can recommend turning on coordinates when caving or exploring, that way when you die you can write down the exact coordinates before pressing respawn

[@imbored2312]

Haha mumbo thought he could brush off the fact, but we all saw the tower of shame in 17:05

[@vatsalsrivastav5195]

I didnt get that, can you explain?

[@TheseusGarcia]

​@@vatsalsrivastav5195 mumbo towered up to his base

[@happyhattergamer8078]

He entered his base thru the bottom.

[@imbored2312]

@@vatsalsrivastav5195 Mumbo's base is in air and he doesn't have a conventional way to get in. What mumbo had decide was he would set his spawn point to his base get killed by this eccentric fall damage, llama, magma killing chamber. But any time he changes his spawn point or there is an issue with the killing chamber or he just genuinely forgets about the killing chambrr, Mumbo has to build what he he calls the tower of shame or pillar of shame to enter his base.

[@bavish1]

8:55 the sun's just come out and your 7 hours into the challenge? Mumbo, what is your sleep schedule like...

[@Chillychive]

I love seeing more gimmicky episodes on hermit craft, it’s a style of mumbo content that I’ve always really enjoyed.

[@infinity2383]

Mumbo: Just kidding, I won't actually mine scar's ore tower. Grian and gem: IT WAS THE SNAILS!!!

[@rooftop_pigeon]

"I had a stack of Diamonds on me." **Annoyed Mickey Mouse Noise** Very Chuffly Episode, even with it's Chobblesome bits.

[@timwoods2852]

Turns out the key to becoming the richest Hermit is mining like a madman! You'll have to compare to Scar when he finally gets around to mining his Ore Mountain 2.0 and see just how much of his several weeks you belted out in 12 hours.
