hey zed you should make a trophy called ''best friends'' or ''Group Project'' something along them lines where to complete it you have to complete a trophy with every hermit already got scar and bdouble0

It's strange you picked Bdubs, he is the shortest hermit. I bet you were beimg nice and letting him know what it's like to be tall. Anyways at the end of the season, I think we should get a look at the world where you were testing about the Zedvancements ideas.

[@andrew3139]

I see what you did there.

[@Pepso8P]

I think Xisuma had a great idea for another Zedvancement when he was guessing why he is killing you with a crossbow two episodes ago - he asked if you were trying to die every possible way. Considering you are already trying to collect all items and build beacons with all minerals, it could be an interesting addition to the "get all branch" of the Zedvancements.

[@erikbergqvist83]

Every possible type of death message?

[@Pepso8P]

​@@erikbergqvist83 I'd say all types of death messages + being killed by every mob that can kill you. But I wouldn't take it to the extreme where some types of deaths can be combined with pretty much every mob, the default way of a mob kill would be enough. If a mob can kill you in different ways by default (e.g. blaze fireball and melee damage), then I'd say go for all of those.

[@xanderinsall3764]

I thought it would be good to get killed by every hermit haha. but he mustn't say his goal, so he must trick them into killing him

[@DrKvo]

That one feels too grindy. Isn't there >100?

[@Pepso8P]

@@DrKvo It doesn't feel like there are so many, but I don't know, I just liked the idea when Xisuma mentioned it. There is plenty of time to do that though and not all deaths are difficult, so I'd say it is pretty doable with a few deaths each episode. It could be one of the longer Zedvancements (the collection of all items won't be done overnight and so won't be some of the beacons).

[@shunnedtomcat]

Excellent episode. And nobody died. Except perhaps a parrot. And it was wearing a red shirt so maybe that's not so surprising.

It's so nice to see so many collabs this season! Wish it wouldn't be a ton of extra work to add in more trophies, might be fun to have "partially loaded" trophies where they're "filled" with gold up to the approximate level of completion.

[@felipecesconettomartins2097]

maybe you could have different parts of the trophy be unlocked depending on what you've finished (ex: when you get all the wood related items you get one of the handles, when you get all of the redstone related items you get the bowl-ish part, etc)

[@jrogey]

That was a fun stack with mobs on the back. A parrot and striders, Bdubs with glee, a new Zedvancement has been achieved.

[@justcallmeness]

Greetings, viewers! Reporter Ness is on the job, bringing you the latest news from Zedaph's adventures! In this episode, we catch up on base improvements, discover the cutest Zedeggs, and get stacked with some crazy mob Jenga! Special guest BDubs comes along for the latest Zedvancement as they catch and stack mobs, carts, a boat, and even themselves! If you know BDubs, you know he's always up for adventure, and the duo succeed in doing something both amazing and ridiculous...which is the perfect Zedvancement combination! No spying today, but I've fashioned my own spyglass to chronicle the sneaky shenanigans without setting off alarms myself. We'll see how that goes. Stay tuned for more fun next time! Personal Note: the last report included another breakthrough transmission...while we've squashed that vulnerability, I did notice that the message was for me...strange. I'll camp near spawn and see what happens.

[@mikejuggernaut9891]

Zedaph, I'd be cool for you to put glass on the beacons matching their color. Like if you put red glass for the Redstone beacon.

[@meowtain9566]

Strider stacks can go pretty much infinitely high, theres a 1/10 chance of finding one on another and 1/100 for a third and so on. In bedrock theres a bug for chicken jockeys to ride another mob such as another zombie

[@pinkpixie8686]

i was just thinking that i thought strider stacks can go high than 2 but it might have been too difficult to stack multiple in survival or maby he didn't know.

[@sky01james28]

True, but 3+ striders is super rare and there’s no way he could find 2 stacks in 1 day 🤣

[@lucidmoses]

That's true in creative and the early snapshots for them but then they coded a hard limit. Is it 6 or 16? not sure. Need someone to check the code.

[@DrKvo]

I was under the impression that this was removed and now the limit in the official release is 2.

[@jacoblattimore5434]

[@ladylunah22]

I'm loving this season Zed! I had a Zedvancement idea: "Friendship was the True Treasure" - Earn 1 diamond block from every active hermit on the season. Could lead to some friend collabs. And Cubfan offered to pay you in diamond blocks for completing quests for him for his beacon. Can't wait to see your next episode!

[@amaryllis0]

Psst: if you give the custom model data to a block that supports transparency, like stained glass, you could make those trophies translucent!

[@lostboykaleido675]

color coordinated glass would be cool for the beacon lights.

[@benyerkes5406]

Hey Zed! I have a Zed-vancement that you could try: longest continuous villager trade chain. You have to trade as many things with any villager (wandering traders included) that you got from other villagers. For example, you start with an empty inventory except for one item, you trade any amount of that item but can only trade each item/trade once(can’t trade x amount of emeralds for 2 axes, only one). You can’t “enter” any new items into the trade chain from outside sources in the middle of it, but crafting/ altering (smelt or grindstone etc, but no adding things like combo crafting or anvil or etc) are allowed. Zombie heal trade prices are allowed, good luck (example: I’d start with emerald to glass to glass pane to emerald to item)

[@thegarlicedragon3952]

I hope he does this

[@h3nder]

You can't really go that far with this.

[@allenbuddy3101]

With zombie trades you could buy iron tools, smelt down into nuggets, turn into an ingot, sell back for an emerald and continue. It’s only two steps down the chain but I think the whole thing would be an interesting experiment

[@davekachel]

Normal people: This is mere a placeholder Zedaph: ITS A GHOSTPHANTOMTROPHY!

[@chia8049]

Achievement idea! ‘A very prickly pear’ escape from 2 charged creepers by hopping onto a cactus. double meanings abound with this one, creepers explode when you get near (prickly company if you ask me) it makes it *very* prickly by being charged creepers, creepers are the most like pears (because they’re green) cacti are prickly and can grow pairs of pears. Loved seeing another collab, nothing makes Zed’s shenanigans more funny then watching him show others his latest wacky antics.

[@m0sspunk]

that’s really clever i love it!!! and the pun is very good too

[@thassalantekreskel5742]

I hate to say it, but as soon as the episode ended I thought of how to one-up the mob-stack-all. You know how you can hold items in either hand? Two leads each, attached to bees. You're welcome.

[@allenbuddy3101]

The bees aren’t really being ridden or riding anything though. You could throw two leads on a lot of animals but they wouldn’t really be part of the stack

[@erinasnow]

That transition in the beginning was neat! Always a great day if I get to see your video editing work

[@heathroush5343]

You should ask hermits to keep their eyes open for 3+ strider stacks to allow you to go even higher.
