The gradient beacons are the non real beacons. The fake beacons acts as glass so it color changes

[@ej558]

Also your Bow could be DavidBowie!!!!!

[@felipecesconettomartins2097]

you can probably fix the gradient by putting the colored glass under the fake beacon and then one stained glass pane on top of it

[@joebot3907]

@@felipecesconettomartins2097 a beacon above a beacon acts as white glass, but it also completely erased any other color that shoots through it. Sadly, unless there is a change where they act as clear glass, there will have to be a gradient

[@poppycars213]

to answer the reason some of the beacons are gradients: when a beacon beam passes through another beacon it actually counts as a white piece of glass, so it is actually going white-whitered-lightred-red instead of instantly becoming red

[@dhearyzikrimuhammad_0366]

So looks like he'll need to put some tinted glass under the top beacon and 1 above huh

[@volbla]

That makes sense! Although i wonder why it counts as white glass and not clear...

[@Aranel_Alasse]

If I'm watching Zed shoot himself through 3 dimensions before the video is released, does that mean that he actually shot himself through 4 dimensions (nether, over world, end and time)?

[@HeatherKraafter]

Ohhhh!! This is genius!!!

[@averageaf4321]

If you want to get technical every dimension has 3 dimensions of x y and z as well as a shared dimension of t (time) between all three. So I guess it could be considered like 10 dimensions... I didn't know Zedaph was a string theorist 🤣

[@Bloodgt3]

Plus the real dimension that we are in actually watching it

[@nathoghazi5026]

if we add everything in these replies together, we get N (nether), Nx (nether x), Ny (nether y), Nz (nether z), O (overworld), Ox (overworld x), Oy (overworld y), Oz (overworld z), E (end), Ex (end x), Ey (end y), Ez (end z), t (time), and R (real life) for a total of 14 dimensions

[@insooklee4294]

16:47 “Thank you so much!” Zed says to the wandering trader. *Switches to sword in hotbar and aims cursor”

[@MerryLucious]

FYI - Actually, Impulse helped with the Diamond Beacon also. He completed the first layer so it would be activated for your use after he completed the Emerald Beacon.

[@Galgamos]

Here's a "Zedvancement" for the slightly older crowd: "Elementally Animated Journey" Travel 500 chunks on foot, starting out with nothing but a stack of wood in your inventory. Other hermits whom you informed beforehand are allowed to aid or hinder you as they please, but they may not kill you directly. Edit: I was informed that you only have 3/4 of that available to you, but this is still possible if you make a 90° turn at the mid-point. ;D

The mob-stack-all trophy needs to be turned into a mini trophy stack!

[@justcallmeness]

Hello friends, and welcome back to the Zedvancement News with me, Reporter Ness! After a short break, we are back with another trophy attempt, and boy is this one a doozy, folks. We love our Zed for his science--his way of bending Minecraft mechanics to his will--and this challenge puts that creativity to the test. Dead armor stands, fiery trapped portals, unsuspecting friends (well, they might be a little suspicious)--this episode has it all! The egg hunt results allowed us to hear etymological morphology in real time! Surely fascinating for the linguists in the audience. I won't spoil the results of either of these things...watch to find out just how Zed can shoot himself in three dimensions! Side note: I camped at spawn for several days during the break... after that cryptic message, how could I not? I saw only shadows...but they looked like semi-transparent players. Not sure of my next steps in this little side mystery, but something is definitely happening.

[@tomapedersen]

For the "The Mob Mobile!"-advancement, remember that the next update will bring frogs, which will bring the number of dangleable mobs to 24, a better number for divisibility (6 in each quadrant)

[@baosia]

Is zedaph the one haunting Joe? Joehills has at several occasions been bombarded by volleys of intangible fire arrows... If portals are involved it suddenly makes some modicum of sense

[@assortedgeekdom]

This was my first thought too. I’m guessing this is the source of Joe’s phantom arrows.

[@salomevalencia2292]

I would blame it on scar and his Hawkeye phase

I believe it's from the general air bow fights that happen frequently around spawn, Keralis and xB have had several archery fights while flying around spawn and I think some of those arrows may have been fired into unloaded chunks

Idea for a Zedvancement: Build secret rooms in every hermits base, and live in them for a (minecraft) day without them noticing

Zed really could have named the mob stacking achievement mobelisk

[@Cluemily]

These Zedvancements are starting to transcend dimensions. I love it!

[@chrizzie1]

Now I really want to see Zed bewhilder another hermit by firing arrows/snowballs/whatever through their portal whilst they're hanging out on the other side. Better yet, do it invisibly so they cannot find the source of the projectiles. Or even frame a mob (say a crossbow-wielding piglin), and then proceed to continue the bewilderment after the other hermit has found and dealt with the alleged culprit.

[@FantasticGaming-pw8st]

This is actually a really cool idea, hopefully it gets the views it deserves. Also, Pearl getting hypnotized by the portal before it shot at her was fun.

[@TheRockLlama]

"Don't you turn your butt to me" made me laugh way more than it should have 😂

[@anonymously944]

Time laps?

[@GumballMachinery]

Two Zedvancement ideas for you! "Space Battle" - You and one or more other hermits have a PvP battle, but you're all flying over the void. "Stairway to Heaven/Highway to Hell" - build an elaborate staircase all the way from the height limit down to bedrock with a hole opening up to the void.

[@HeatherKraafter]

I was having trouble understanding the Zedvancement until you completed it and then I was like, OH!!! Now I get it! ha ha - I thought it was great how you got Beef and Pearl to be so suspiscious of the portal. great job as usual Zed! Such fun this season - which isn't new at all!!!

[@BonomiShow]

Perhaps, the copper beacon would look better with the colors inverted, like an hourglass, first with the glass more "copper like" and on top glass more greenish.

[@Mosstoad]

I was thinking this too!

[@eliswhere]

I wonder if Zed's fire-arrows through dimensions are in any way related to the two instances of ghost fire-arrows Joe's seen?

[@brickbot2.038]

I think it has to do with the armorstand pack they have installed. When they accidentally hit an armorstand it can't break the stand due the stands having the invincible tag, so it glitches out instead. That's my hypothesis, at least.

Can you timestamp in Joe's video when this happened? I wanna see if it's plausible.

Seeing this gives an idea for a mini game. Where you can set some Armor stands in one dimension and let the players hit them and count how many Armors did one player hit. The player with more Armor stand wins. Wins a Ztrophy

[@ceciliadicesare2574]

Zedvancements: they begin with some simple animals, and now they traverse dimensions, breaking the boundaries of space and time. Who knows what comes next? The laws of (albeit already questionable) Minecraft physics do not apply to a man as remarkable, as innovative, as truly wacky, as Zedaph.

those posed armor stands look like a room full of mannequins from a supernatural horror scene. posed in positions like they're frozen until you turn away. well done with all the effort in that gag. it was as entertaining as it was unsettling.

[@themug9205]

you can put the glass-panes on the real beacon underneath, doing this will make the gradient go away (i think alteast)

New Zedvancement idea: dig straight down from surface to bedrock until you find one of everything in the following list: water, lava, one of each ore (deepslate and stone), a cave, a ravine, a spawner, and a new stronghold. I would call this Zedvancement something to do with gold digging, but you can come up with the name.

[@sisas_7700]

The reason for the colour grading on like the coal beacon is that the beacon underneath shines through the other beacon and a beacon works like it shines through a wight Glas Block

You should get a set of every kind of armor in the game (the base 16 colors of leather armor, chain mail, iron, gold, diamond and netherite) with max enchantments. Could call it "Fully Suited Up” as a continuation of the base “Suit Up” advancement in the game.

[@stickerbombed6229]

Zed , you should do an achievement, similar to your mob stack one , of longest chain of flying mobs , kind of what tango and impluse did last season with slow falling potions and horses , but get loads of hermits involved and see make 'the longest floating conga line' (name could do with some work)

Can you chain teleport an arrow through portals? For example having another portal where the armour stands were. Then another portal in the overworld next to the armour stands portal etc... Could you make a loop? 🤔

[@rhhoff]

Not sure if this has been suggested before, but since "The Sound of Music" is now an achievement, maybe you can get some more Musical Awards? I was thinking of the following: Cats - Have all breeds of cats The Phantom of the Opera - Have a Screaming Goat in the same room with a Phantom Les Miserables - Survive on only Rotten Flesh for x amount of time (or alternatively: get a villager to max trading level by ony trading in Rotten Flesh) Mamma Mia! - Win an ABBA cave-mining contest

[@Squilly4]

17:56 the reason why the arrow didn't get launched was because of how you used the lever on the piston, you made it 0-tick, and essentially that just teleports the block instantly to the resulting position. i think it might've worked fine if you powered the piston in a way that doesn't break the power source in the process

[@jonahcraven8669]

18:30 If I'm not mistaken, only one arrow damages you because the instant the first one hits you (or at least, the first arrow that the game processes,) you flash red, gaining a half-second of invincibility. All of the other arrows hit you in that time.

[@Harry_Thomas]

I’d probably guess that you couldn’t because of how portals work as in their links in the over word as they would connect , but I’d say it’s possible to shoot an arrow from the overworld ,to the nether and back

[@liamengram6326]

That portal gives me an good idea for a bail trap. Just remove the bottom center one, and as you run for your portal shoot an arrow to send 7 arrows flying back at your pursuer. Could possibly work with fire charges as well.

[@tito_me_doe676]

So, it’s not delay (that makes the arrow not damage you) it’s how collision detection works. So, entity collision works when the edge of one hit box touches the edge of another hit box. When you shoot an arrow through the end, it goes into the exact same space that you go into when you go through. The bounding box of the arrow is inside of your box, thus the borders aren’t colliding and the game engine doesn’t register it as a hit

[@_shibe_7150]

Hey zedaph, if you finished your "Zedvancements" you can do a "Zedaccomplishments" where you do all the previous zedvancements but has a twist that makes it harder And you can replace the gold trophies to diamond Like the threeDIEmentional instead from overworld to end. you go from overworld to end then end to overworld

[@evernoob]

Zedvancement ideas: WHY??!!! - Kill a brown panda with a charged creeper. The Findings of a Blind Squirrel - Find a buried treasure while having the blindness effect. How Did You Get Here? - Ride a dolphin to an end city ship. Bones R S - Compost every possible thing in the game. I Would Do Anything for Pork - Convert a pig to a zombified piglin using lightning, kill it, then use their dropped sword to kill a pig and get a pork chop.
