16:11?

[@Elias-tz6fk]

Tango, if you want to light up the build, just place levetating glass pains with end rods on in the sky all around the place!

[@itz_yhk6088]

Or just go full hogwarts with floating end rods with no panes

[@drake11011]

Tango you could use some kind of glowing mushroom for lighting to with the fantasy and underground village theme. Love how the build looks so far.

[@Blueeyesthewarrior]

D P That would be so cool, having the big red mushrooms with glowstone underneath them.

[@sowhyus]

he could try co-oping the end rod mini mushroom that Scar made for his landscaping business .. maybe fiddle around with the glazed terracotta blocks to see which would work best and then make a few huge ones just to finish off the theme when it comes times.

[@axolotl0424]

It would also be absolutely rad if there was a central tower that kind of grows up out of the ground, maybe partially mirroring the suspended island

[@davidbowman406]

What if there was a giant storm cloud under the island with purple lighting coming from it

[@SpiderSmoothie]

Mushrooms would be a great addition to this base!!

[@LilChuunosuke]

Don't mind me, I'm just here for your reaction to Grian emptying an entire chest of rockets. Y'all need to sit Grian down and have a talk about his problem eventually, haha.

Tango, I don't know if its a good idea to hide the heads in the End ... I remember seeing an Xisuma video once about the maintenance he does on the server, which includes deleting generated chunks in the End to replenish the shulkers for the shulker boxes.

[@TangoTekLP]

Hmm. Fair point. I forgot about that. I'm going to make a legit 'vault' soon anyway. But yea, you are right

[@Cobra_1967]

Use a hidden location in the nether maybe?

[@timmcc6899]

@@TangoTekLP Looking forward to seeing what kind of vault you make then Tango!

[@johnpugh9865]

His vault is somewhere on the nether ceiling.

[@pandalovers8789]

Yup

[@freezeflamegamer]

15:14 maybe the spawner could be on a balcony of a tall building.

[@sowhyus]

A really bad Guard Tower? ;)

[@ameegodwin6076]

Or make the tower look like it belongs with the house.

[@rfresa]

It could be the jail, and the zombies could fall down into the cells.

[@carrie6589]

Any sort of tall thin building would work, or maybe something floating. The second option would be harder to build, but if it was done right it would be AWESOME.

[@Pomegranate44]

I love how Grian, as a new Hermit, took over Hermitcraft with really fun games like TAG and his head hunt. He definiitely left a stamp on this season so far. And lets not forget he is an amazing builder! Also an amazing firework buyer ;) Btw Tango you talk very fast!

[@wedonttalkaboutthisaccount9769]

15:15 make a spiraling wizards tower of some sort

[@ramsakd123]

Wow Tango that is the best build style I have ever seen it’s so unique and it looks so amazing. I love the amount of vegetation there is and have an idea for the zombie spawner. So here’s the idea: have some rune looking things on the ground be blasting the magic stuff where the zombies from the spawner will fall and have the spawner be like a portal from a enemy zombie filled place and the whole reason the villagers have harnessed this magic is to protect themselves from these zombies. It’s just an idea. Like the comment if you want tango to see it and think it’s a cool idea.

[@theuntje1234]

Dude this is awesome!

[@gnembon]

You could always make a tower with a cage/prison for these zombies and light the room around so the zombies could spawn only in side the cage. Nothing fancy, but it would create some use for the spawner

[@_crazypenguin_]

What on earth a comment from gnembon with no likes or replies? I must change this

[@jesusmario6106]

Dude, I would recommend u to build iron golems in ur village, I mean, we clearly saw a baby zombie spawn there.

[@lukecogswell1031]

Grian uses a crazy amount of fireworks

[@raducpm6972]

No

[@nolanh8607]

Popa Radu yes

[@lukecogswell1031]

He really does, he uses about as many rockets as jevin has diamonds.

[@raducpm6972]

Tones of name tags

[@tssteelx]

And eggs. Oddly the two go hand in hand.

[@realityjaunt]

You should build a serial killer shack with hundreds of Grian heads in the secret basement. You could even have an Illager living in it.

[@Chareddragon]

Remember to add farms to your village, both for you and to feed them. You'll need beds so they can sleep. Also, add some redstone lamps. I mean I barely know what I'm doing in Minecraft, but it seems like a good idea. As for the spawner make a mob farm. Simply turn the outside into a building than funnel the mobs into an under-underground killing chamber

[@wildlaser1064]

16:11 and this is one of the reasons why Tango is my fav youtuber you get the most funny and unpredictable things out of one of his episodes xD

[@maetrixxx]

For the spawner: Maybe have it in the centre of a rift or rip in space/time where it's corrupting the village around it and drops the mobs into a well/collection (sacraficial) pit

[@septicon1248]

I suggest Tango that when you are building some of the cottages for the villagers that you make a bridge between some of them to make some unique. I also suggest that maybe for the beacons that villagers have built something around it to harness the energy for something BIG!

[@cullenlatham2366]

an idea to save the spawner is to make a small magic spire around it. the spire isnt the main building, but an accessory to the house you just built. then you could do some extra decorating of the house to make it seem even more magical than the general architecture of the area and add the easiest aesthetic piece of furniture for the context:an enchanting table and maybe a brewing stand. the build is currently close enough to the edge and has the right amount of isolation to sell the "magical recluse" idea. If you wanted to take it one step farther, change the palate in the area a bit and make it a necromancer's abode, complete with charred earth and dead trees.With a necromancer theme, you could also allow the zombies to wander around as they spawn if you could find an "invisible" way to truly contain them and prevent them from causing any harm (for example, with villagers). you need to set up some sort of deal with grian. he has plans for a mob farm coming. He already buys enough, make him your advertiser in exchange for stock (products, not stock market). Give a daily allowance that wont break the business but adds incentive for him to remain a customer in exchange for "advertising". he challenged Ren to a flight contest in his last episode, which consumes rockets, upping the demand. (so building a flight course game would also be helpful).

[@simeonr4767]

for the zombie spawner, you could build some kind of tower which lets them fall into a hole into the ground. in this hole you could put an iron golem like a rancor from star wars. (in jabba's castle)

[@suprltve]

grian is so used to creative mode. he uses those rockets whenever he is able to.

[@orthochronicity6428]

It's always a bad sign when you're dealer thinks you have a problem.

[@KavkasToxin]

Tango, behind the first building is a mineshaft. You should fix it up some, make it a feature, then block it off. Then hire someone to make an orc village at the other end and populate it with named pigmen. The raiders of your village as it were.

[@hurricane2176]

You can hide the heads inside the rock instead of on top of it, that way the hermits won't be able to see them as they're zooming by. Either way, great hiding spot.

[@justinniemand4412]

Use bark blocks at the little block hangovers to hide the top view of the oak logs

[@vikingzeroone9647]

CubeMaster welcome to the rabbit hole friend

[@LinaBoeckwurm]

for the spawner... maybe have another magic bubble around it so it can fill up with zombies, holden far away from the villagers by magic ^.^

[@Arttano]

Don't forget the good ol' glowing tree technique. Also, the new lantern blocks from the snapshots will fight right in with the build style ( however many months it takes for 1.14 to come out).

[@AriallaMacAllister]

The Disco for the zombie dressed all in gold was hilarious and perfect! If it was me, I'd probably tear the house down and move it far enough over to still make the spawner building, but I'm that way (totally didn't tear down an entire Unary Bits carrot & potato farm just to move it 3 blocks to the right and then again to build something completely different when it still didn't look good... nope... why are you looking at me like that?)

[@JracoMeter]

Don't forget you can use flint and steel to light creepers. With testing I also learned that they seem to drop the mine cart when in water.

[@DanielTheEvil]

(Zombie Spawner) you have a magic village, so you need a crazy magicien that needs practice doll/zombies or he is learning necromancy. So you need a tower.

[@IaIaCthulhuFtagn]

You could hide ground lighting by placing a jack o lantern in the ground with a green carpet over it and bone meal the grass around it.

[@jpo4028]

13:04 ... I see a beaver face but the zombie disco at 16:11 killed me. too funny

[@PhillipRajcany]

The villager house does look just a little better with the extra block of space. Dark oak door looks nice.

[@JumperXxXCables]

Man that was great with the zombie having a disco party. I laughed so hard .😂😂😂

[@zaccharyhulsman3510]

For the spawner, build a tall, evil looking tower with arms (rooms) coming off the sides of it

[@CipherUnknown]

A plain wall of sandstone with vines in front of it would look gorgeous

[@muzikfreek093]

The disco zombie made me laugh so much :D I think Joe Hills has 143 Grian heads (and he may or may not be hiding them on the roof of the nether)

[@TheTexan83]

Grian is definately putting out more and more heads. You are the third hermit I've seen grab a head from the same couple of places...

[@autopsipath]

Cheers for the design inspiration mate love that awning and garden setup out the back and the stripped log and trapdoor finishings make it so neat, that house really works for me as bare or overgrown version both look great.

[@samasher8957]

You can hide jack o lanterns next to grass paths as long as there's something over them (e.g. path for a path and slabs to line the path, the one pixel lets the light through and the colours are similar enough)

[@nodustollens9183]

for the monster spawner you could make it loook like a water tower, or a cage with monsters on display for the villagers

[@RyanEglitis]

You could prevent wither skeletons from despawning by just dropping iron swords for them to pick up. Not all spawns can pick them up, but it would be cheaper than nametags.

[@cjoutatime]

Have a sky walk which just randomly wraps around the base hanging from the ceiling kinda like the ewok village from Star Wars. That way you can incorporate the spawners. It would also match the magic theme.

[@tigermaster5446]

Poor Grian, losing all his diamonds. Wait, no! Jevin gave him and Mumbo 3 diamond blocks (not separate!) Tango, you should do a review episode that is long, and it shows each spot of building on the Hermitcraft server!

[@cjnogodula]

For the spawner you can make some sort of hanging cage or something where it looks like the zombies are trapped (the story would be like the villagers trapped their biggest enemy)

[@peenhype9564]

if nametags are a problem. then remember that some wither skeletons can pick up armour, and not despawn when passing through portals. only some though

[@ketchupman246]

Looking sweet! Having the different floors being different wonky shapes would always look good too

[@Blueeyesthewarrior]

I think at this point, you can no longer claim that you’re not a great builder. The little house you built was amazing.

[@GTX2GvO]

Zombie kid: Omg! Omg! A grown up. A grown up! Tango: **Sword to the face** About the nametags. Why not ask Xisuma (again) for some organically collected nametags. :p

[@refrigerator577]

Love the design! I can picture a stunning village already

[@ashleycloud_]

13:03 It looks good, but it also has a strong resemblance to Rocky the Squirrel from Rocky and Bullwinkle lol

[@Berserk_Loon]

I love your hiding spot! That could actually be a good plan place them on different end islands that way if they finds the island they don't get them all!

[@raphaelvidmar3366]

Since he uploads hermit craft twice a week I doubt it’s coming soon. I’d prefer him to just upload once a week and mainly focus on the mod instead of almost purely working on hermit crafts videos like he does now.

[@Formoka]

I love your house Tango!!! The roof is amazing and the greenery seals the deal! Also, there's at least nine stacks of heads so you have a lot of collecting to do!

[@ranchlingger]

When you added the vertical stripped logs at 13:00 it made the house look like a beaver.

[@WildflowersCreations]

[@hehe8138]

Hide the spawned in a big tree or mushroom. Buildings look weird close together but a tree right next to a building doesn’t look unnatural.

[@ScottStratton]

That was one of the best Hermitcraft episodes ever, love your sense of humour Tango

[@darthninja188]

Zombies seem to be the "Bad Guys" of the village, Build a jail cell where they fall in for an XP farm. Just a thought

[@rivenrime]

I love the energy beams! They remind me of the beams inside a plasma ball lamp! 😁 If they didn't have to be centered on the beacons, I'd say you should make a large pylon/crystal that has that sort of beams coming off from it. Maybe you could anyway.

[@got6hell]

Perhaps you could move the first house you just built and make the long hall there with the spawner in the attic. Play on the village invasion? From the inside.... nasty teleporting zombies. House looks amazing with thick vegetation.

[@nemobla1]

i really like the overgrown theme, as it's underground and undergrounds are often very likely to be overgrown, but you have to stick with the theme all the way thoughout

[@SkullCrusher757]

the conbutts sell stripped logs in undercut. also i love this house it looks epic and very elven

[@jbsilveradoo8788]

You could make a tall tower of a big church in the village, which would house the spawner.

[@fredzillainc.3780]

Maybe The Spawner can be used as a small tower with a open top, that you can’t climb. But at the top the zombies spawn. And it could also be farm at the same time? Idk this is just a thought...

[@kjeldnedetzka1844]

You could do a floating room with Grian heads on the outside for the Mobspawner.

[@Pencilneckgeek216]

Omg, that zombie disco party was amaze balls! Love your videos man :)

[@Merlin2ify]

Don't break the spawner. Make some sort of a maze for constant zombie stream as they'll be tracking villagers all around

[@TheSUPERSOLE]

An old fashiond water tower, around the spawner, on stacked up fence post stilts, so the spawner is in th barrel, maybe keep it lit up inside tempary, maybe.....

[@patrickkeller2193]

Tango, that wood button on the floor had nothing to do with your trap doors. That was a memento for when cubfan glitched through the floor and lost everything.

[@hduke1307]

Tango, some large mushrooms around would look good. An you could do floating balls of light. Like glow stone with colored glasses blocks wrapped around the glowstine like wizard globes. They would fit in with the energy beams an give sorta a elven city feel.

[@Zulgeteb]

Forgot who has the bookshop near itrade, its either biffa or python. He should have tons of nametags since he got the books from fishing. Or you can use a villager to trade emeralds for nametags (but that seems to be quite expensive with 20-22 emeralds per nametag)

[@katjadoebelin4847]

Maybe the spawner could be in a two or three story house that has a larger floor on a smaller one below like old houses that tried to minimize their footprint. It could cover a garden, path, or even a shop maybe.

[@hyperboltplayer8886]

With the purple magic as your base theme it would be a great addition if you were to add some custom mushrooms

[@friancafirma5008]

The spawner can be like a Purple floating crystal its beautiful
