Hermits React to Zed's Villager Riding a CHICKEN! 🐔(Extended)

[@JadedDaemon]

Doc may be able to break Hermits minds by breaking the very fundamentals of Minecraft but Zed. Zed, can break their minds by just being Zed and we love him for it.

[@ZeeZeeWee]

Zed after exploiting the code for the 10th time: teehee 😋

[@bsidethebox]

​@@ZeeZeeWee Grind Oddities Absurdly Teehee 😜

[@alechs]

zed's feats of minecraftery are much less practical but no less impressive

[@neeuqdrazil]

Doc breaks the game to break the game. Zed breaks the game for the sheer joy of the insanity.

[@Fyrefrye]

I'd love to see Doc and his tech friends trying to automate the spawning and sorting of chicken jockeys. I imagine they'd be able to get the rates up quite a bit if they automated the spawning of additional chickens when needed and rigged it up to a full efficient zombie/mob spawner. If they managed to get it to a reasonably AFK-able state this could be a fun new way to manage trading halls and villager transportation.

Doc is overrated noob

[@abdullahemek2488]

We are at the point that a villager riding chicken is way more surprising than seeing an ender dragon in overworld.

[@Space_gremlin]

Yeah because the ended dragon is going to be there and it just takes pistons and time…….. This on the other hand takes luck and a sacrifice of your sanity

[@literaluniverse1274]

I mean you just have to forcibly push the dwagon bos with pistons again and again

[@abdullahemek2488]

But i mean like if you see an ender dragon, the last boss of the game, can destroy any block with just touching, flying over your base you will go "oh doc is doing something again" but 2 basic and harmless mobs on top of another is just blows your mind and leaves you speechless and i think its amazing and i thank zedaph to sacrifice so much time to show how cool it is

[@LilChuunosuke]

Funny thing is about this bit is that when I saw it from Impulse's POV first, I didn't fully process just how insane a villager on a chicken was because my brain just registered it as "typical Zed behavior."

[@CurtisD1986]

I first seen this in Imps vid too. Low key it blew my mind how he done it. Then I seen zeds vid and it seemed simple enough, until it wasnt.

[@bd_mayhem]

Yeah, after seeing impulse's video, I thought it must have been a wild zombie village jockey. Incredible odds, but possible. Finding out that it's farmable blew my mind.

Waiting for the season/arc in which they create dumbfounding chaos together and the other hermits have to stop them.

[@thinker-12]

You realise this means you failed to dangle all the mobs you could last season. There was no dangling villager

[@royalFiddle]

Not to be a semantics wizard or anything, that being said, it doesn't seem like the villager is the one being lead, rather it's the chicken the villager is on, and as leads supersede most natural pathfinding, the Villager is no longer able to pilot the chicken

[@JamieElli]

Arguably this will be a villager riding a dangling chicken.

[@ToppyTree]

I would guess only the chicken would be turned upside down too? More science required

Skizz is also familiar with Zed. It’s only Joel.

[@jwest6058]

Skizz is a part of the ZITS crew, Skizz is already pretty close friends with zed, but that said I don't doubt he was beyond surprised.

[@BlahCraft1]

5:30 In mob sorters, to filter out a chicken jockey, drop all the mobs down a hole. Halfway down the hole, have flowing water held up by signs/open fence gates, flowing to a tube. If the hole is deep enough, all other mobs will fall so quickly that they won't be able to swim in the water, and will instead just have their fall damage reset. Because chickens glide down, they will get caught by the water, and can thus be sorted out in this way.

[@FakeAccount-vw9gi]

Good idea

[@EarlLeeByrd]

I think this is actually over complicated. Since the chicken jockey's are teleported to their "mounts" anyways, even through the floor, you can just have the chickens safe off the side while the main floor just drops everything that spawns on it down the hole and out of range. No need for a filter system at all since that happens naturally as they spawn.

[@BlahCraft1]

@EarlLeeByrd this design is intended for typical mob farms, to solve Xisuma's question.

@@rudrodeepchatterjee ohhhh. Yeah, the baby zombies riding the adult zombies was always them running to the adult and getting a piggyback ride. I’ve never seen them spawn like that. I’m going to have to test that out. Do they jump on tamed wolves or just wild wolves?

I once had a baby zombie villager on a chicken on its way to my curing cage, only to be killed by a wandering golem. They do not show up often, that's for sure. But you can create a spawning area that you can refresh with a short rail trip to speed the process up.

[@NoLoMo]

I don’t know if anyone would know the answer. If Zed bred a ton of villagers and zombified the babies would they also have a chance to mount the chicken. Or is it only a naturally spawning villager zombie?

[@rudrodeepchatterjee]

As per the wiki, the game checks for nearby chickens/spawns a chicken when SPAWNING a baby zombie(variant). I don't think conversions spawn new zombies, instead they just change the condition data of existing villagers to turn them(so that the villager's trade details are preserved). So no, converted villager babies will not turn to jockeys.

[@JHoboman]

If you kill the chicken while there is another rideable mob close, the baby zombies will jump to it. Idk if it would work in your situation but I had one jump on a cow one time. I play bedrock so Im not sure how that would translate. Fantastic job. Keep doing your thing. We will keep watching.👌

[@rudrodeepchatterjee]

Baby zombies can ride 10+ mobs on bedrock edition, including skeleton horses, wolves, ocelots, pigs, sheep, cows and pandas. Java baby zombies only ride chickens. Also, in bedrock edition, baby zombies can choose to ride a nearby supported mob if it targets a villager, golem or player, so you don't need naturally spawned jockeys, and can easily get jockey villagers like zed does(although I don't know if they will dismount the chicken upon curing in bedrock).
