To be fair, the Caves & Cliffs advancement is still not as far out there as How Did We Get Here?

[@Madcraftgirl]

That might be the most difficult one to date, this seems easy(ish)

[@darknesswave100]

Yeah I'd say this would be relatively easy if you basically build a one block wide enclosed tower or something from build height to bedrock and put water at the bottom. Then all you do is jump and fall straight down to bedrock while the tower keeps you in there and then you hit the puddle and you survive. Its extremely simplistic

[@Nugcon]

@@darknesswave100 They should make it so you have to place the water while falling instead of having it pre-placed. Makes mlg water buckets canon.

[@Nateyred]

I mean... it could be easy if you plan it well such as making a shift that is nothing but one block wide then drop into water. That adds the problem of materials... so there isn't any perfect answer.

I dont know if this can spawn in java edition but... in bedrock a addition a zombified piglin can spawn riding a strider with a warped fungus on a stick. Its called the strider jockey and will drop a saddle and warped fungus on a stick upon killing both mobs. It's a great early game way of strider travel, except for the fact that the fungus on a stick has durability taken off of it.

[@Sey318]

Man, I'm torn between "a grappling hook may trivialize some traversal, maybe it would work if it was lategame item a la elytra" and "grappling hook go brrrr wheeeeeeee"

[@tbgame2266]

If implemented, i don’t think it should be lategame at all. A tool designed to navigate terrain is not greater then the Elytra designed to simply fly over it when comparing. Plus minecraft players already trivialize this experience by “pillaring”, leaving a added mess behind. I would also argue that pillaring or using the water bucket method is not the immersive fantasy we should crave.

[@Sey318]

@@tbgame2266 i compare it more to enderpearls. A grappling hook would be like an endless (durability maybe) stack of ender pearls that doesnt dmg you. I would be happy if it was crafted with say copper, diamond and chorus stuff or something of the like

[@tbgame2266]

@@Sey318 if the devs make it that way I could see a complete imbalance between the two. But I believe a passive navigation tool is needed early game just because of the methods we use already. Endermen need to be slain, are not common and is not a guarantee that you will obtain a enderpearl. Irl grappling hooks are usually intended to be used more than once but, I could see a reality where we convert arrows to grappling hooks and have the ability to use them with a crossbow only. The grappling hook would then be destroyed upon use. Imagine not only being able to navigate but also be able to pull mobs towards you or vice versa.

[@Jpx0999]

[@spacex6997]

Fun Fact: The Sound Of Music advancement is a reference to the 1965 film 'The Sound of Music'. Now, I haven't watched it, only seen the cover. But the cover shows a woman dancing in a meadows like environment so yeah, I can safely say that this is a reference to that.

While nether generation is still borked, it is still possible to get Warped Fungi for the Strider. Bastion chests can have Crimson Nylium, which has a chance to produce Warped Fungus when bonemealed. Unfortunately it can only grow into the full tree on Warped Nylium, which is impossible to acquire right now, but you can at least get the mushrooms.

[@matthewparker9276]

Probably not that much longer. The villager trading and fall could be done consecutively so you're only spending about 10 min on that, and maybe less on the strider advancement. The hills are alive would barely impact a good run at all, since finding diamonds, loot chests for a music disk, and travelling the world are all things you'd already be doing.
