There should definitely be a ruined statue of Etho somewhere in the game to honour the champion of Decked Out 1.

If you're worried about the lava fitting in, you could tie it into the story of the game by having the room directly below it on floor 2 have a furnace/volcano/lava pocket theme. Then the magma is both a hazard and a hint at trials to come.

[@caninekulo8637]

You could do a subroom that transitions to "frostfire" nearby to tell that story if need be

This! I was thinking the same thing - it's a warning of what might be below in the next level.

[@empresspyra]

Hey Tango- a little bit of "storytelling" makes even "ugly" blocks (the magma cubes) more aesthetic: my idea is for you to place a campfire over a haybale under the magma cube - the "advavnced" campfire releases a consentrated smoke vent that has passes through any solid blocks above it- creating an arctic hot spring effect and if you ever saw documentaries on yellowstone national park you'd know about glacial ice around volcanic hot springs can kill anyone from the boiling hot water that falls in (connecting well with the "magma vent at the bottom of icy rivers" thats something I do often withy water ice and magma blocks and the effect is quite fun- might work well in the river cave area

[@abstractpoet8977]

I'm jealous of all the hermits that get to play! Have you ever considered a custom map out of Decked Out to release to the public? I'd love to see what you could do with this idea with command blocks.

[@PeregrineFalcon646]

At the end of the season, the hermits release a download of the server that you can play on.

[@Gandalfa82]

I think the idea is more of a custom map where all the little stuff Tango has to do from time to time is done via command blocks so you could play over and over and not have to go through and reload things, just have a command block do the creation of new items and reloading of stuff. With the server download you still have to go through and maintain the game just like Tango does which of you don’t follow his streams and videos you might not know how to do it all, and even if you do follow everything there are some things that he might not ever show on camera.

[@MamaWheelz]

I would pay a lot of minecoins for this on the bedrock marketplace

[@KRO-222]

I’m grinning from ear to ear. Absolutely stoked for watching Decked Out grow and watching the hermits get absolutely wrecked when it’s done! The Dungeon Master skin looks *amazing!!*

[@stormchazer3068]

Decked out idea: I had an idea with your directional skulk sensors contraptions you talked about on stream. They don’t activate when you shift. Make a place where you are supposed to be quiet (like maybe a library themed room as you should be quiet in a library) so you have to shift and that keeps a secret passage open. But if they walk it closes and they will never have noticed the secret passage is there. I thought of this after seeing the latest vod on tango tek 2. Maybe Tango already thought of this btw, but was keeping the idea a secret, if so, sorry. Btw love the progress and your skin! (For the people that are confused why my name is now different. My original yt name was my irl name, so I changed it so people wouldn't know anymore, cause I didn't want that. Weird to mention maybe, but maybe some people notice that the name is suddenly different.)

[@t_bkdk_r2285]

Omg that's genius

[@olmage1]

Bring this to the top!

[@unaminggaming]

I think Tango mentioned in his first Decked Out video this season how the compasses would be named based on what level they pointed to. I agree that it would be very confusing and would take a lot of finding to do if you had to search for the correct level to put the compass in as well since each level takes a long while to traverse through.

[@stormchazer3068]

@@unaminggaming Thanks, now I know. I thought he must have thought of it already and said it, but I couldn't remember. I have now removed that question from my comment as I now know the answer.

I actually really like the magma blocks at the bottom of the trench, makes it look like they've melted the ice into that river. They could definitely be placed more organically though, the solid chunk of them doesn't look natural

[@alastair7140]

I was thinking that instead of having them there permanently you could block swap them in when a specific level of hazard is reached. Then they don't always take away from the look of the river.

[@Jimmio9]

I also feel if there is gonna be magma blocks then it should be deeper

[@minosegdelwonk7851]

I also think they would look more natural if they were placed a bit lower in the river. Like the earth split to reveal the magma... You would still get the bubble column, but not have it as immediately visible. If it were placed even deeper, you could put a secret lower chamber & have additional bubble columns placed strategically for air. Trap the trident zombie down there where the ravager can't go... If you timed it so that the ravine gets bigger/deeper when certain checkpoints are reached, that could be cool too.

[@SpeziFischDE]

small recommendation: with the custom items etc you have on hermitcraft, it should be possible to make custom non explosive tnt blocks for the decorative ones

[@dontblinkmusic.]

Hey Tango, absolutely love Decked Out and so pumped to see the progress!! Was thinking a bunch of cool ideas to implement still in Level 1 - here is a list!! 1. Incorporate Frostwalker Boots somehow (either with armor-stands to freeze/unfreeze parts of a lake, or maybe even as a later upgrade for the player). This could be used to open / close secret parts of the map as well, or trap the player. 2. Give the player a 'Freeze' effect over time (could be a special effect unique to each level that affects the player other than KLANK, and in this case would maybe slow them down) 3. Hide a nut!! 🌰 - Definitely a reference to Ice Age, but it could be like a super secret / moving artifact that is really hard to obtain because it only appears for a few seconds and then moves to a different location. 4. Polar bears! Just a nice aesthetic touch but they could also be a thread. Keep crushing it Dungeon Master!! Definitely worthy the new skin! 🙌🏼

I think there should be some punishment for not completing the statue's quest, otherwise there is no risk in taking it. Maybe you lose some embers at the end of the run if it isn't completed. Maybe there is temporarily more hazard until you turn in the quest.

[@RyanEglitis]

That or it costs some ember to activate it

[@peytonjay4515]

He could make it really expensive to buy the quest, with a reward that makes the purchase worthwhile. That way they only get it if they intend to complete it

[@xzekt]

Instead of a punishment for not completing it why not just bonus loot for completing it? Give incentive the other way instead?

[@dhkoster]

Seemed to me that statue room is a bit of a detour from some other locations like the accesses to other levels. Seems the punishment for attempting quests is the time it takes to do them, all the while having clank and hazard accumulate and making your other progress more difficult. It may be sufficient. If not, Ryan's suggestion of costing ember should make it sufficient.

[@thedeltastrat]

@@dhkoster agreed. the risk to take it is the detour taking it entails. There's already a risk in taking the quest. I believe you want their to be a risk to not taking it? But that's counterintuitive as then either way there's a risk... I think its fine as it is.

[@aidanlanz3114]

I think it would be so cool if there was a hallway or cavern that is "unstable" and if you make clank in that area, it creates a "tremor" that causes stalactites to fall from the ceiling. It would have to be restocked every once and a while, but it shouldn't be too hard to maintain and it would be SO cool. I am so excited for Decked Out 2! ❤️❄️❤️

[@williamwontiam3166]

@@williamwontiam3166 Oooh I didn't think of that.. that would totally work! And you would get some fun drip effects!

[@stormchazer3068]

I love your idea! Making those stalactites fall with activated skulk sensors could make the dripstone a little more accurate so it can do longer with the dripstone in stock. Also, why not add sinkholes with double piston extenders on the buttom, so not only do you have to look out for dripstone but also for sink holes.

[@tito_me_doe676]

Not necessarily a restock, more like a replace. There can be hoppers or hopper minecarts under the floor that collect the fallen stalactites and Tango just needs to put them back up occasionally. Now, you could combine the sculk sensor idea with the total chaos mechanic, where you have farmland with seeds (so it stays tilled) then trigger a dispenser to release a stream of water down a path through the farmland. Observers below the dirt observe the wetness level, and when it changes, it triggers a piston beneath the observer dropping the stalactites.

[@CantEscapeFlorida]

Decked out 1.0 was so epic I thought decked out 2.0 couldn’t possibly live up to expectations. I was wrong… so far this is looking super super epic. Tango you must’ve put so much work into this it’s insane. P.S. the new skin is amazing.

[@sibylline2172]

Decked Out is looking incredible so far! I'm sure I'm not the only person to say this, but I think if you could drop the quest notes onto the Statue's 'towel', that'd be a really good effect, and it shouldn't be too hard to jump up and get them off!

Cool idea, but adding more manual maintenance for aesthetics probably isn't a good idea

[@qwerty222999]

6:10 This moment really makes me consider how the Glare from the previous mob vote would probably have fit right into builds like these. It's a chore to spec every single surface for light levels, so you use a plugin to make it easier (as shown in this video). The Glare's entire purpose would have eliviated that. As you try to create a dim room, you have the Glare following you, to find spawning spots for you as you build. Really makes you think.

Love to see how deaked out is turning out! But tbh I do not see the point in having separate "victory points" and "points", it seems a bit confusing for players. Would it not make more sense to have one type of point and the top three of each phase gets extra points? It would also encourage competition among hermits who will struggle to place in the top three but still wanna compeat with hermits of a similar skill level. Nevertheless, I'm still super excited about how its turning out.

[@memyselfishness]

No, actually, having it be the same points throughout the whole run makes it harder for others to catch up. Let's say Etho plays well and consistently and gets 10 points each phase. By the end of phase 5 he's at 50 points. Now, let's say Keralis doesn't play all that often, but pushes really hard in one of the phases and scores 35 points. Keralis is now behind Etho. However, if you go by points per phase, Etho got 2nd and 3rd a handful of times, so he has 16 points. Keralis got first in that last phase and now has 10 points. Keep in mind that your victory points are reset each phase, but your points aren't.

Hey tango! Really excited to see how this season’s decked out develops. Just food for thought but I think it would be awesome if there was a ‘sabotage’ element included were a player could find another player’s head in the dungeon, and then if they retrieve it and submit it at the end of their run, the next time that hermit (who’s head was found) plays the game they have a sabotaged run, perhaps signified by a noise or different soundtrack, and they have a forfeit (like potion of slowness or something) or the run itself is just much more deadly!

Oh I NEED to see him do this.

[@ginsbene808]

Genius!!! Tango please

[@darkprotogirl]

I can't be the only one who screeched "ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT IS DND TANGO!" when he called himself the dungeon master, right? In seriousness, can't wait to see Decked Out II: Electric Boogaloo

[@radiosnacktive8773]

I love how newer updates really help make DO2 possible, like the lighting changes in tandem with the glow lichen. also I suggest you place a beacon in front of the statue and make the statue announce "A NEW HAND TOUCHES THE BEACON!" ;P

[@bubbaplayz_]

putting curse of vanishing on artifacts would be a good idea, makes them shiny and they cant reenter the dungeon to get the artifact back

[@calebS.Buddy_drum_Rich]

Tango you should should swap the campfires in the back of the Statue room for soul campfires It looks fine either way because the candles are there and also support it but having the color of the soul (blue) on the bottom would be neat.

[@alexisbloodwood5587]

The skin changing effect really shows how far you've come over the years, I'm impressed!

[@aserta]

The lava in the rift (in the room at 8:23) could have sense tho. That's why there's water there. Put some smoke under the lava (if it travels that far, haven't done that yet) and bam! you have a heated steamy river that's melting the ice in the cave.

[@Respectable_Username]

11:01 I can't wait for Etho to find the one pixel worth of non-fence block left jumpable to jump over those hazard fences. You know it's gonna happen, no matter how careful you are 😂

[@tanagerbirds]

the way decked out reflects the season it's built in with events and themes related to other hermit's projects is absolutely fascinating, it's such a cool artistic touch to make it feel more personal to you and hermitcraft

[@DrakenSK_]

As a Dungeon Master you should have an Icy Staff model to replace one of your tools (as the skin sort of looks like a mage)

[@YTLovekangkai]

I feel like creating custom tools and things like that start to “overdo” the custom texture pack tho

[@DrKvo]

@@YTLovekangkai Agreed. Even the hood already feels a bit much for me. Things like Xisuma's tools and Impy's beard feel extremely out of place.

[@ginsbene808]

Mmmm I like it tho. It allows for much more interesting content.

[@Mytkos910]

Reskin the bow into a staff that shoots magic bolts. (Like Gem did on Empires S1)

[@usedtobekrampus]

decked out could strait up be its own title, so awesome! tango gets to be good at redstone, building, and game design

[@KB-jh6dn]

I think a Tnt dispenser over a basalt generated bridge would be pretty neat feature, rebuilds its self and reveals a secret

[@Eereepa]

Clicked as fast as I could! Decked out is amazing

[@hephaestus_workshop]

I’ve been going back and watching season 7 and the difference between the very first concept for decked out and now the successor (even just a prototype) is just wild. I’m so excited to see where it goes!

[@OneLikeOthers]

I swear, Tango's dungeon master outfit (especially without the hood) to me gives less the vibes of an cryomancer and more the vibes of ...I AM THE STORM THAT IS APPROACHING.

[@FaiienWings]

Tango, everything you've built this season has looked phenomenal! Keep it up :)

[@space_0wl480]

Everything looks so cool. The risk/reward seems very balanced, especially with the shortcut tnt tunnel down to level 3! That plus the new in dungeon quest systems promises to offer very different and personal runs each time, and that's impressive. Really can't wait to see where it goes. The dungeon looks amazing! Glow lichen for the win! And shoutout to the maker of the skin, it's absolutely beautiful!

[@Cykotiq]

dungeon....dungeon not donjon

[@space_0wl480]

@@Cykotiq didn't notice I wrote it like that lol... donjon is the french word x) thanks!

[@RyanEglitis]

Alternate Hazard name: Peril Sounds a bit more dungeon-y and less like a road sign.

[@michaelyoung7261]

The thought that Tango is putting into this dungeon reminds me of a story I’ve listened to recently called Dungeon Life Essentially, it’s the story of a guy who gets isekied into being a dungeon in a fantasy world, and the shenanigans he gets up to

[@bionicbirb9104]

There’s a new, VERY degenerate ecchi anime with a similar premise

[@evildragon0525]

The statue should say something like "I shall bestowe a quest upon thy shoulders... risk.... or reward" in some kind of creepy death like voice

[@wasyago]

the skin looks soooooo cool!!!!!!!!! how when you take off the hood and there're suddenly bright ice hair underneath? ough, the effect is amazing! and the new parts of the dungeon look wonderful! absolutely love the statue room, and the ice caves feel so dark and dangerous and mysterious!! love love love how it all comes together

[@Dave-cg9li]

You could also trap some trident boys in the water cave with "depth charges" similarly to your iron farm in Season 6. Somewhere safe from the tnt where they can shoot the player if you're not swimming fast enough 👀

[@tsuyurimizushima9457]

Love the DM skin, perfect for this! One possible concern about the victory conditions: do frost embers carry over from phase to phase? Because that would open the game up to some serious meta-gaming where not turning in embers at all for one or two phases and saving them for the remaining phases could give you a pretty significant advantage over someone dutifully submitting their embers every phase.

[@aryaghahremani9304]

suggestion: add some water canals through the dungeon, with drowned probably that way you can make a minor non important room a really good access point to another part of the dungeon on the whole other side of the map, kind of like among us vents. also some fishing place would be cool that way you can spend precious time fishing in the crypt(maybe for a quest or just food) also for the third and fourth levels it would be cool to have places you can trade some items found in the dungeon itself for making some noise to distract the wardens or maybe just some secret item frame or button that pressing it would make a noise somewhere in the dungeon to distract the wardens. also it would be cool to bring some companions to the dungeon, maybe a villager for distracting the ravagers or something like that hope you liked these ideas

[@shauth4742]

Re: The TNT Room - You play on the same server as Scar. Yes, you're gonna limit what they can bring into the dungeon. But.... Scar.

[@Flash4ML]

?? If there was a way to ignite TNT he wouldn't put it in. It's not physically possible lol

[@shauth4742]

You know that and I know that. But... it's Scar. He may spontaneously invent a way. Purely accidentally.

[@volcano5539]

I have to say I think decked out was one of my favourite parts of season 7 and when I found out you you were going to do decked out 2 this season I genuinely got exited. I love it so far.

[@jarihuygens9781]

Just an idea: now in the snowarea the soulsand is shown, could be a idea to hide it with a map textured like snow and place it on top of the sides of the soulsand. Keep it up bro 💪

[@N3MOWEN]

The patience you must have to build all of this is just incredible. This game, in my opinion, could probably be considered the most impressive survival built minigame in minecraft history.

[@UKTransport232]

Tango I'd really like to see something to remember TFC by included in the Dungeons, like a staircase down in to the mine with an armour stand and pickaxe or something mining diamonds. It'd be great I think. Thanks.

[@geck0193]

Tango, have rooms that are timed and once entered have a one minute countdown until they’re locked in!

[@marcusswingle8627]

That statue room is easily one of the best things I’ve seen on hermitcraft.

[@yoyenedeti]

I cant wait for etho to run the hell out of this decked out. Yo7 are an amazing crazy dungeon maester builder

[@Capochetta]

I'm concerned about that tnt just sitting there, especially after that zombie spawn. Maybe make a custom skin for pumpkin heads that looks like tnt but won't kabloey your build?

[@WarchuEX]

Can’t wait for the finished game

[@UpNorth3390]

I love the Dungeon Master look and whoa the frosty hair is very cool! The scoring makes perfect sense. Tango your commitment to detail is insane. 💕

[@Armageddon0324]

I, like many people, don't love adds in videos, but I really appreciate that tango's are timed in the blackouts, and not mid sentence. I might be the only one who appreciates this, but thank you tango.
