this is the rarest item in vanilla Minecraft and this trade costs 65 emeralds to do making it literally impossible and these are 23 stupidly expensive things in Minecraft and hey according to the YouTube Gods no one's ever subscribed to the channel using their left pinky so if you're up to that challenge Point your fifth digit at that red sub button below it's free and it helps out a ton while this blue ice block doesn't look that expensive let's put it in perspective since to get one of these y
ou're going to need nine packed ice and since a packed ice block is made out of nine ice itself what we're really seeing here is that one blue ice block is the equivalent of 881 ice blocks like so and when you put that side by side in a comparison It's Quickly noticeable that you're going to be spending a lot of ice just to get that quick Highway and frankly if you're looking to spend the time to get that much blue ice to actually get up to those top speeds you should really be building your Hig
hway like this with the gaps cuz otherwise you're just wasting efficiency especially when you consider that both of these designs work the exact same now this armor might look overpower but it's actually not that much since even though back in 1.14 you could get yourself a full set of armor with every sing single protection enchantment that was actually unnecessary since the level of protection for certain damage types is already capped so even if you went through the effort of getting every sin
gle protection put on your armor you weren't even seeing the full benefits of it and at the very least let's hope that when you were putting all those enchantments on you added on mending as well because otherwise I think you're going to get the too expensive message in the Anvil and then it's a lost cause but it is right this definitely is too expensive now an efficiency 5 netherite shovel seems great but it's actually a ripoff since as it turns out having an efficiency 4 enchantment is already
good enough to instant mine every shovel block so if you waste the time to get yourself up to efficiency 5 you're just going for style points but honestly I'm even guilty of this myself it just looks awkward to have yourself an efficiency 4 right next to all your other efficiency 5 tools but even if it's understandable it still could be recklessly expensive to do now a netherite beacon is a huge flex but when you crunch the numbers you might want to reconsider that since to get all the material
s necessary to pull off a full netherite Beacon you would need 5,944 netherite scraps which sure enough means you're going to have to find 594 ancient debris blocks and I just can't account for that kind of luck so if you're wsy and want to do this for a thumbnail that's completely fine but for a regular person like you and me I don't think that's going to cut it but hey at least it's more blast resistant than a regular Beacon that's got to account for something but not the amount of time that i
t would take to find 594 netherite scrap and when it finally comes time for you to activate that netherite Beacon the cost can only get higher since While most of us would choose to activate this with iron or gold clearly those aren't the only ways to do it really if you're spending a netherite Ingot or a diamond to get one of these powered up better make sure that they have someone watching because otherwise you're just spending money for no one's benefit and what's even sadder is that this isn
't even the most expensive thing we could do with beacons and we'll see that later in the video theiller trades can be a ripoff but this one quite literally is since in the past there used to be a glitch where old villagers could sometimes require more than 64 emeralds for a trade and not only is it expensive but it's also impossible since you can only put up a stack of emeralds in the item slot but nowadays if you try to recreate this glitch it doesn't work the same way since even though we hav
e this villager in the map set with a price of 70 emeralds the game will always auto discount it to a price of 64 which is still not cheap but at least it's affordable in theory with the 1.19 update we've got ourselves the new recovery Compass item and if you're able to track down the echo shards necessary to make one of these it seems like a pretty useful item to have unless you're inside of hardcore mode since obviously if you die here there's no need to get pointed back to your last death sin
ce at that point the world's deleted and you can just move on Odd as it may seem this is actually the rarest Block in m craft and probably why that seems so odd is because it's actually pretty pointless but in fact since gilded Blackstone can only generate as a part of Bastion Remnant and usually underneath their Bastion chests this golden Blackstone is actually rarer than the ancient debris since that can generate anywhere and really when the most that you can get from this is just a handful of
golden nuggets when you mine it with a pickaxe it really makes you question whether it's worth it or not I mean you can't even smelt it like nether gold ore to get yourself an Ingot that's how much of a ripoff this is so is it expensive yes but there's so little under line value here that I wouldn't consider trying to get some and speaking of showing off next to your nether portal what you may notice that only Big Spenders are building their nether portals with the Four Corners since as we all
know it's unnecessary I mean even the yogs cast taught us that plus it's not like obsidian could be easily farmed anyway so if you're doing this you're really just wasting time in two different ways both in mining the obsidian and in spending the extra time to lay out those four blocks so really the only time you should see another portal built in this layout should be when you go through the Nether and it generates over there but in any other case I'd recommend putting that four extra obsidian
into an enchanting table or something that's a lot more economical from a distance these palm trees look pretty unassuming but once you get up close then it starts to look a lot more careless now I'll be the first to agree ancient debris does look great for a palm tree trunk and I guess one benefit is that you know that tree isn't going to burn down in a lightning storm but come on the cost is obvious for building one of these things so as much as it bothers me that Mojang hasn't added in palm t
rees for a beaches yet I'd rather build one of these out of a dripstone trunk like so instead of wasting all this potential netherite I mean apparently it costs over 5,000 pieces of ancient debris to get yourself a netherite beacon so I'd rather save up for that than wasting it on my Shoreline every now and then Minecraft adds a feature that doesn't make much sense like the water breathing arrows for instance I mean I don't know how often your friend is drowning and then the solution is to deal
more damage to help them out but even if they aren't practical at least on Bedrock we can chck a couple of these on a slime block Pusher and make ourselves a pretty Fountain as it is leather armor is supposed to be this early game item that you can get to start off but it almost never is because as turns out it's actually more expensive to get than regular iron ingots I mean just consider the fact that not every cow that you kill drops leather whereas every iron ore that I mine is always going t
o drop at least some amount of raw ore and that alone means that it'll always take less mining than killing to get yourself a full set of armor but it's also not like cows are that easy to find so unless you find yourself a leather shirt and a shipwreck I'd figure that most of us don't even put this on before we get into the better stuff if you're making this flint and steel you must be rich because even though a flint and steel itself is about as cheap as it gets cost one Flint one steel you ca
n hear it in the name it is possible to get one of these with mending and breaking on it and that's definitely Reckless I mean sure you will have yourself a flint and steel that'll never run out cuz you can basically recharge it whenever you want but the question then comes down to why would you want to recharge it the base item is so inexpensive in its own rate that you're really just adding on an unnecessary cost to solve a problem that you didn't need but if you're trying to show off while yo
u light your nether portal I guess flashing something like this definitely does that trick copper is a great block to build with but it's also one of the most expensive expensive since it's the only metal with stair and slab variants you can only get those variants if you're using a copper block that cost nine ingots each which means that just one stair made out of copper costs 13 1 12 ingots to craft which is a lot of effort to go through for just a roof like this and add on to that all the opp
ortunity cost that you spent waiting for this to weather down and the copper house that you crafted is definitely going to come with a hefty price tag honestly I'd only try this if you got yourself a drowned Farm otherwise it just seems too Reckless now crafting an anvil definitely has its use I'm not going to argue with with that but crafting 64 of them to make a railing that's where you start to lose me but sure enough there are some people who like to be bougie and put together some of these
anvils as decoration block and to a degree I get it it does have a unique model that makes it great for certain details like so but having to spend 31 iron ingots just to get one of these that makes it expensive even if you got yourself an iron farm and really if you're at the point where you're considering building this Anvil floor design and survival you might as well just save yourself some time throw all your iron on the floor and then crush it with that very same Anvil since both will be th
e same waste of your ingots now this sounds unintuitive but you probably don't want to use bookshelves to build yourself a library because for each one of those blocks you're actually looking at three leather nine paper and six planks per block which is expensive enough when you just need 15 of them to get a level 30 enchantment but when you start to consider building up your Library of Alexandria Recreation now you're looking at some serious problems and honestly I don't know if it's worth kill
ing that many cows causing deforestation and getting rid of a lot of sugar cane just to be left with a texture that's this repetitive but if you have the farms on hand maybe you can make this in a sustainable way and honestly I'd rather just craft the books outside of the bookshelves so then they have a little bit more use for me now golden apples are expensive but enchanted golden apples that's something on a whole other level since if you're going through the effort to find one of these inside
of a rare loot chest it's probably going to end up in yet another chest except this time as a trophy since why would you eat one of these instead of the competition sure it offers a lot of absorption Hearts but since it's a oneone thing I'd much rather use regular golden apples or even just suspicious stew for a generation and what's funnier still is that in old versions this enchanted golden apple actually was pretty stupid to have making it so that you took more damage when you had an enchant
ed golden apple instead of less and for the kind of cash that you were burning back then that was pretty brutal and arguably one of the most useful ways to use your enchanted golden apple is to make the thing Banner pattern which is expensive but we can make it so much worse since to get yourself the rarest item in Minecraft what you would have to do is get yourself a thing Banner pattern and then use that in a loom so that your green Banner has a brown Mojang logo since to do this you need to h
ave cactus green die which you can obviously only find in a desert and the brown of cocoa beans which are only found in Jungle biomes and since both of those are rare biome exclusives that makes this Banner one of the most expensive things you can get in the game and it's a shame too because with that color combination it truly is ugly I think the load Stone's one of the often forgotten features the 1.16 update and part of that's got to come down to its price tag since for each one of these that
you're building you're going to have to get one netherite Ingot which itself is four netherite Scrap 4 ining debris and that's just too much so while I agree it does look great if you use it in some cases for building a decoration this should only be something you consider doing in creative mode because honestly even when you use it for its intended use of Link in a compass it's not that useful for how much you're paying but if you have enough netherite on hand that now you're trying to spend i
t to get the achievement I suppose you can make an argument for that but using it for a build like this I'm not going to coign that one this may not look like much but what you're actually seeing here is the result of 16,384 blocks that we placed since to get one thing of custom map art it's going to be 128 by 128 map and when you crunch the numbers that quickly starts to ramp up in time and that's not even including the fact that you could be using supporting blocks to get the staircase in effe
ct for shading so as much as I love showing off custom map art in our videos for the cool details like so if you're actually in survival and you're trying to use one of these for a chess board or a custom carpet it's not the most economical choice let's put it at that while beacons clearly have a lot of function as a well Beacon they do also give off a light source which we can extrapolate to mean that you can use beacons exclusively as a light source inside your base but why you would ever do t
his it's beyond me because each one of these blocks that you place down tells the story that you killed a Wither for each nether star inside which is pretty cool but as soon as you see a beacon chandelier like this then it starts to feel excessive and honestly if you're going to use a Beacon for decoration I'd much rather use it for colorful Beacon beams because at least then the beacon could be active instead of just passive like so now I agree the dragon egg is pretty much useless but even wit
h that said using one of these for the base of a lamp still seems like a waste I mean in Java Edition you're only only going to get one of these so the idea that you just be using it for something as simple as a light up base yeah I don't know it rubs me the wrong way let's put it at that but if you're really set against using one of these in your trophy room then at the very least my favorite Reckless way of using your dragon egg is by putting it inside of an item frame and using it as the nose
on a sign silly yes but stupid also yes there's a lot of arguments about what's the best fuel to use in a furnace but I can safely say this is the worst since while it doesn't look that bad to put your jukebox in as a furnace fuel consider the underlying cost since for each one of these Juke boxes you're spending one Diamond inside and there you go just by putting a juke box in the furnace you're literally burning money and I doubt you can recoup that cost by selling whatever steak you cooked i
n that furnace honestly I think you'd have to pay me to eat a steak made out of diamonds instead of the other way around and honestly jukeboxes by themselves already feel like a ripoff we don't need to add to that equation if you're really looking to take your items for a spin then there's really nothing that matches up to a honey block roundabout the way it works is that items are dispensed in the back and then pushed around in the honey blocks in cir CES by the Pistons while it really just amo
unts to a pretty show I've got no problems with that it is kind of mesmerizing to watch and it's worth noting for the sake of being thorough that even if all the items don't get collected at the front then they still get picked up in the back and then funneled into the system that little tidbit isn't going to make it any more practical but it is worth noting because hey at least it's functional so if you got a rumbly in your tumbly for all kinds of weird storage then this is definitely the best
you'll find in the entire 100 Acre Wood with piglin bartering gold Farms are a very helpful thing to have on hand hand and while we normally build these above the Bedrock roof some servers patch out that glitch so why not just get thousands of blocks of obsidian and build an Overworld gold farm and while you do sacrifice some of the efficiency to pull this off it is quite the feat to build inside your world and it'll finally give a use to that obsidian Farm you have so that's something but hones
tly why would you want to do more work for Less results I've got no clue coring animals in Minecraft is easier said than done let's just say the AI is in a perfect system and while crops should be the easy solution not all of us must have a farm on hand so for another solution we could use a flint and steel no joke by lighting the mob on fire and placing a water source in the pen you can bait them towards that spot to cool off it does work but it only takes the pig being a bit too slow before yo
u're left with little more than a pork chop and a waste of time before you get an elytra it's not an easy task to cross the different void gaps between the islands and the end though that painful problem actually has an enjoyable solution you see a simply sarc pointed out in 2018 another alternative is mixing together Riptide SL low falling and ender pearls then you can launch yourself hundreds of blocks needed to cross which is fun but only right until the point where you need to get back and t
hen it's a pain building the system again so honestly I'd much rather just fill up my inventory with stacks of cobblestone or something at least then the bridges that I make would be reusable unlike this where it's one and done staircases are staple in a Minecraft house and they're also very customizable some are fancy some are straight forward some go up to build limit and this one this one's just long or more specifically one of the longest staircases currently possible in vanilla Minecraft if
you thought snow layer staircases were slow then this puts that all to shame and really for the effort to set all of this up only to climb one block It's just sad and definitely not practical and I don't know what lunatic would want to put this to work in their house we barely wanted to build it for the example dealing a lot of damage in Minecraft is satisfying but while it might sound like a dream to kill the Ender Dragon in one hit the reality of building something like this is just a nightma
re you see even though this crazy TNT arow launcher might just do the trick you'd have to be a mad person to build it even in creative mode this seems like it would take a lot of effort to make so truly if you're looking for Speed while you kill the dragon just use beds speedrunners have already proved that's plenty fast for getting the fight done bone meal Farms are almost a prerequisite for Minecraft automation after all who wants to wait for all their crops to grow on their own but if you can
't find a skeleton spaw in nearby then I guess fish are always a solution though the word solution here seems like a bit of an overstatement you see in Java Edition there's only a 5% drop chance of bone meal from these things folks that's not a bone meal Farm it's a fish farm with a bone meal bonus so if you really can't find a spawner and still looking for bone meals some way just use Cactus or kelp Instead at least with those you have luck on your side with the popularity of 100 days challenge
s in Minecraft it's become a lot more crucial to check your in-game time and while most of us would do that through the F3 debug menu there's actually a way to do this with redstone see using a daylight sensor on top of a dispenser filled up with blocks then every time another day passes by a block goes into the chest and tells you the number I mean it's certainly a lot more costly than hitting a button on a keyboard but if you want to it's worth a shot when you're smelting things in a furnace y
ou don't always have to be standing there to watch it all get done so to know when it's time to sub in a new item to smelt you could make this system that plays a little tune every time that the furnace finishes cooking which I mean does work and it's a nice little detail but really just use a hopper and then you can have all of this super smelter system work without any of the Hassel for you and look in all honesty I actually like this Redstone system that's why we shown it off in the past but
does it pass the practicality test not exactly say you come across some diamonds while mining but you don't have a way to get across the Lava Lake well no worries because you happen to have all 244 mineral blocks necessary to make a full jump boost to Beacon and after setting that up and the proper Skylight to make the beacon work you power it on and jump across with new found strength to the other side yeah it's a common occurrence I know and well it does work in execution the theory has so man
y holes in it that I really don't see this as much more than a what if scenario throwing items on the floor is a pretty shoddy way of storing them I mean after all they are going to despawn in 5 minutes and I don't think anyone wants that to happen to their netherite pickaxe that is unless you build a system like this the way that this works is that we have one junk item getting pushed onto a pressure plate and the other one that we have been demonstrated out front which means that as soon as th
e dirt despawns the pressure plate gets untriggered and then the diamond is able to be sucked back in that way the valuable item that we're showcasing never actually despawns it just keeps getting cycle through Hoppers and droppers honestly I don't know why youd use this over an item frame but sure enough if you want to show off your item in a trophy case this is a pretty bougie way of doing it anyone who's ever come across a silverfish spawner knows that these suckers love to crawl inside of bl
ocks and while most of the time that's just a pain to deal with strange as it may seem we can actually use it for mining yeah no joke all you got to do is anger one of them and that'll cause the rest of them to break out of their blocks and join in meaning essentially we can dig a hole without a pickaxe but in practice it's just ridiculous so even though it works the cost your sanity to pull this off might be too high to pay look I love flying machines as a concept it's a great feat of redstone
engineering and especially when you're trying to do something crazy like a moving base or a house however while these might work for those kind of displays I don't understand using them for travel I mean just about anything will outclass these for horizontal travel and unfortunately they're not much better for vertical in our Sky limit testing video we found out that one of these is an elevator works just about as fast as pillaring up one block at a time and for all the hassle to set up this sys
tem that's Prett pretty disappointing if you would rather sort through your items manually instead of having the help of a hopper this is definitely the method for you you see the way this sort of item shower works is that the droppers shoot out all of their items onto the floor and then you as the player go in and then sort through what you want don't worry about leaving any mess on the floor it's all going to get sorted out in a second because as soon as you got all the items you need you can
then press this button all the floor scraps will get sent right back into the funnel in the system personally this takes me right back to the golden days of Hunger Games where right after you kill someone you got to sort through their old inventory as fast as you can and believe me using one of these in your survival world is just as stressful and terrible of a concept as it is there now when you first look at them Minecart chests aren't that weird I mean it's a Minecart and it's in a chest it s
eems like it lives up to the name but where the storage really gets strange is when you stack a whole bunch of Minecart chests into the same block as it goes since these things are actually entities instead of blocks you can stack up a whole bunch of them on top of one hopper meaning if you've got a way to put items in and retrieve them out then you've got one of the most compact m mass storage systems in the game for my money I can say this is a pretty nifty way to store all the items that you
get from a farm and it definitely looks a lot nicer than those huge storage silos you have to build just make sure your computer can handle all the new entities getting loaded in they can get laggy real fast emeralds are the Quint cental Minecraft currency and while there are plenty of ways to get your hands on the green stuff this one might be the lamest the truth is folks if you want to Slow Burn Emerald Farm then foxes are your Prime Choice every now and then these things will snag an emerald
for you which you can then replace to them with a food item it's simple to set up that's for sure but it's also remarkably tedious which call me crazy but something tells me this isn't your next ticket to a full Emerald Beacon you might need to look elsewhere for that in most of our worlds item frames just function as a decoration I mean they're even labeled as such even Mojang agrees but that's sell them kind of short because if we actually use these as storage they do function as such the way
that you would have this works by having a dispenser shoot out an arrow at the item that you want to retrieve and then have it funnel back to you or if you want to be a little more precise about it then you could just use your own bow and arrow to shoot it Off the Wall to me this reminds me of those old corny carnival games that we used to play and personally I like being able to shoot my tools off the wall at a moment's notice the only problem is it's not that fun of a system to set back up bu
t that's just how life goes it's way more fun to destroy than it is to clean up now this might be one of the most unique forms of item storage because in fact we're not actually storing items but rather we convert them into items on request so for example we hook this up to a farm where if you want sugar can you then press a button and then deliver sugar canane to you or you would have TNT blow up different stone blocks and the like to then deliver those to you as well as you can see the key dif
ference here between other storage is that the items actually didn't exist until we pressed the button to call for them and of course the limitation that would come with this systems that you couldn't use it for all items but if you want your sugar cane freshly harvested at a moment's notice there's really nothing that can top this now I'm all for saving time when you can but sometimes finding the fastest path takes more time than it's worth for an example let's look at the Wither fight sure the
re's some impressive ways to take down the thing whether with firework Rockets or falling dripstone but while those do a lot of damage in a short burst they aren't exactly easy to get so why go through all of that effort we could just trap it under the ends Bedrock Fountain especially one to even pull off those crazy methods you probably need it stuck in place anyway most are familiar with this trick that we Ed to break through the Bedrock roof but we can use it elsewhere since this gets rid of
any block that's underneath the Piston we could even get rid of End Portal frames or command blocks through this method although rock is the only practical option here for example if you want to break the End Portal you could just break the frames using a big mushroom and that's so much easier than the setup so while I guess this could be used on obsidian let's be honest here the slow setup barely makes me want to use this in the nether let alone in the Overworld just leave it to bedrock and cal
l it there making an infinite water source is an easy concept but not everyone always walks around with two full water buckets so if you're in a place like the desert at the end you're out of luck unless of course you have a cauldron and some glass bottles on hand because then you can't find a solution just fill the bottles up in the Water Source pour them into the cauldron and fill it up to the brim then you can take out the new source block with your water bucket make a traditional infinite wa
ter pool so this would work but it's so much more expensive than the regular method and should only be highly situational now I've sung the Praises of the cake ladder too many times to count and while it does add a fair amount of speed with the right horse is it practical no not at all the amount of cake that you need to make for this thing should be illegal it definitely feels like a crime laying it all out in the crafting table and then to not only have your cake but then eat it too that makes
this build more of a fantasy than anything but it's a fantasy that'll still happily use in creative mode while riding into battle on Horseback sounds great Minecraft doesn't always make it that fun say for example you wanted to go through the effort and make yourself the perfect horse for travel but starting off it's not even the fastest method and also you don't get a clear stat read out for each horse so you're going to have to test them and compare yourself and after putting in all that effo
rt into both the breeding and the math to get the perfect stud Steed you're still pretty limited by most standards so just stick to an elytra or an ice boat those are a lot easier to tame if you're trying to get down from a mountain without a water bucket on hand then there might be another Avenue for you to choose which is that if for some reason you're lacking a bucket but brought along TNT then that's enough to do the trick for safe landing since they're instantly broken with a fist you can b
reak one and then place the other from your inventory without ever skipping a beat which I'll admit is fun to pull off as a party trick but all it takes is one wrong move or a blazes Fireball in the nether to turn this whole thing belly up so just stick to water and hay bals swords are great for taking out different mobs but when you get low on durability the pressure is sure to set in so if you don't want to worry about that dragging around a bunch of iron goem bodyguards can also do the trick
and while I love how silly it is to bring around an iron golem posi to Do Your Dirty Work all it takes is one creeper to roll around and the funnel end there and honestly for the 36 iron it takes to craft one of these things I'd rather just make a sword and armor and do the job myself Frost Walker isn't the most necessary of Minecraft craft enchantments so if you've already got a pair then the answer might be to give it to a villager instead no joke by using a dispenser you can give it to a vill
ager and then tuck them in a pack of mobs to easily move the horde across the ocean which winds up being a lot easier than doing 19 trips in a boat every now and then you've got to break the laws of physics and while Minecraft doesn't exactly abide by gravity that doesn't mean we can't break its own rules too and one of my favorite ways to do that might just be these so-called elal water and lava source blocks after laying out the proper arrangement of sticky pistons and Redstone we can just abo
ut glitch out the game and then even after removing the surrounding blocks we can still interact with these as normal Source blocks so if you're looking for a floating art piece to put in your base this might do the trick now saving yourself from a fall with a water bucket is nothing new and if you ask me it's been done to death so how about we try to get a bit more creative for our MLG save and turn to potions instead no joke using something like a slow falling potion we're capable to make a sa
fe landing from a dangerous fall and to pull this off the technique isn't too different from what it is for the water bucket since it all hinges on pressing right click at the right time and if you do that your legs will thank you chain mail is a cool concept but it doesn't serve much of a gameplay function and it's definitely not worth using over that iron set that you're already wearing but if you have a helmet from zombies rare drop let's use it before you lose it and if you put one of these
on an armor stand like so it makes a Nifty RGB keyboard for your next House's desk now lecterns are not something you need to craft in bulk but if you happen to misclick in a crafting grid don't sweat it here's the solution since these share the same bottom texture as the oak planks we can make something of a rotated pattern in your roof which I'll admit is a lot better than leaving these line in a chest the way the Minecraft is it's really easy to build a pillar but really awkward to build down
wards and without a water source to cling to most of us might think that such a thing is impossible but that's just not true if we just so happen to have two trap doors on hand then we can use this crawl technique like so to slowly maneuver ourselves down the path is it tedious absolutely but the fact Still Remains that if you need to build downwards in a pinch this might be your best betat bats are notorious for not doing much and while they can help to find caves there's not much use for these
on the surface that is until we add in an invisibility potion as others have pointed out these little flying rats can become something to ghost when they're invisible letting us get both the flying particle effects and the spooky sounds for your haunted house built so Mojang has gone on the record against added in vertical slaps which suspa its fair share to baits and while I'm not trying to argue either side I will mention that for what it's worth it is a little possible right now see through
the help of walls and TNT it's possible to glitch out the Block's connectivity and leave a ver iCal slab floating like so now it's not easy enough to do to justify putting a bunch of these in your build but it is a cool way to break Mojang's rules and if you ask me it's worth doing just for that before you get mending on your elytra Phantoms are your only option for a restock but some servers have insomnia disabled making that way less viable so instead of doing something simple like enabling th
ose game rules you could always just turn to a cat gift Farm instead just place a cat over a hopper next to your bed sleep for the night and you'll get the membrane just the same it's not exactly a speedy Farm but I guess guess it does save you the hassle of complaining to the admin for whatever that's worth snow layers can add a good bit of detail to your winter build but they're a pain to craft in bulk so a much weirder Plan B could be to get a whole bunch of snow glms walking or rather draggi
ng around the place to coated in snow powder which to a degree I guess it's more resource effective but the time that it would take to move all of these around is a big commitment and even then it's kind of like the fill tool in Photoshop good for filling out a big area but I would hate to use this to write my name before barrels were added into the game you were pretty limited on how you got to do your storage that is unless you wanted to get creative with it because sure enough chests aren't t
he only containers in the game and if we look at it you can actually use dispensers as a way to store your items now I know it's not ideal they definitely don't have a lot of storage but all fully admit that in times where I didn't have wood I've definitely put together some Cobblestone and Redstone to make some droppers or dispensers to store my items but possibly the best use that I've seen of this is making a dispenser or dropper floor cuz it basically looks like Cobblestone and then storing
your item in between the floorboards that way unless your visitors are extra vigilant they're not going to be checking out your diamonds Minecraft has plenty of different blocks that function as containers in which that you're able to place an item inside of them and then they'll keep that item inside things like chests barrels dispensers Hoppers any of that and while I would initially think that furnaces are the most limited that all gets thrown out the window when you factor in Brewing stands
these things cannot do a lot they got one inventory slot and it's only for potion ingredients so if you're a practicing Witcher warlock who wants to hi their golden carrots in a place that no one will ever find there you go but for the rest of us regular people I think it's probably best to use brewing stands for well Brewing they're much better sorted for that job normal Hostile Mobs do not mix well with water so sure that means that you could spawn proof your base using water instead of torche
s but let's compare the two one of them offers light and provides a warm safe atmosphere while the other makes it wet a pain to walk through and doesn't exactly mix nice with your Redstone or decorations and really the only reason I would want to do this for a Riptide Trident to use wherever I go that'd be the only nice touch but other than that maybe this is further proof that you should just have an aquarium in your house instead of turning your house into the aquarium most of the time in Mine
craft Hoppers are the journey not so much the destination but if we want to flip that whole concept on his head we can actually use hoppers in a sort of Carousel motion to then get our items circling around by doing this we can make our own form of item rotation circus to always keep your favorites in the loop but what's important to know is that if you do build this you should only have one item per Hopper that way you can prevent any kind of buildup in your system because hey who wants a traff
ic jam anyway and while doing this arguably makes Hoppers even less valuable for storage it is nice to know that sometimes you don't have to worry about where you're going and just enjoy the ride gold tools don't get a lot of playtime however as some commenters are quick to point out they can be faster than their Diamond counterparts and well that's true as soon as you enchant the two candidates that's all thrown out the window an efficiency 5 diamond pickaxe is much faster than the gold counter
part heart and well that's enough of a reason to use this the difference in durability means that you'll burn through way more golden pickaxes just to mine the same amount of area so while unenchanted gives the nod gold just spend your levels in time to get a fully Enchanted pickaxe instead look I'm a fan of getting the best bang for your buck but at some point we got to ask if it's worth it take this regeneration Beacon for example now the way that it is you don't get the full regeneration from
this thing after a while of being activated which is too bad but we could fix it with a system to deactivate and reactivate the thing repeatedly and I get that that would help you to regain your life slightly faster but I imagine any time that you saved was already wasted on building this thing in the first place piston doors look great they could be frustrating to set up and sometimes you might just want to blow it all up and start from scratch so why not make that a feature if you're crazy en
ough to piece together a cobblestone generator wall then you can use a TNT button system to bust through and use it as a door sure this still uses Pistons but it's a lot more of a spectacle to say the least just make sure you don't step Too Close otherwise this will double as a defense system if you're into Redstone or maybe you just want a bunch of leads then a slime farm is on your to-do list but if you're playing on peaceful mode then it would seem that you're out of luck that is until you ma
nage to capture a few hundred pandas you see these mobs even in peaceful will occasionally sneeze out a slime ball giving you somewhat of a farm but don't get it twisted this method is painfully slow so if you really want to build this enjoy the two or three slime balls you might get in your entire lifetime because that's about it you ever get tired of placing your own pumpkins yeah I don't either but any person really looking to automate their pumpkin placing process I guess this does do the tr
ick with two snow blocks Out Of Reach from the dispenser it'll still try to place the pumpkin for snow golem even if it wouldn't make one and then there you have it an automatic pumpkin placing machine which I guess is functional but I do not understand the point of using this trick and honestly it's probably more useful to use the intended method of making snow golems anyway and with that folks YouTube thinks that you might like this video so see if they're right and have a good one all right

Actually, it is still useful to put Efficiency V on a shovel. What if you're underwater or have mining fatigue?

@N0tFound4o4

9:35 as a person who is dyslexic and gets lost easy due to it, i can tell you that the lodestone was the quality of life update i needed. trying to read the crowded f3 menu with dyslexia was a nightmare before this feature was added.

@BaronPraxis8492

Honestly considering how easy copper is to come by when mining, especially up near the surface, I see no reason not to shove it all into builds. Once you've got a couple of lightning rods what else are you going to do with it?

@gmanplaysgames256

A note about Cut Copper Stairs and Slabs. The Stonecutter can be used on Blocks of Copper, making production of stairs and slabs much more efficient.

@catluvr2

Obsidian actually IS farmable, if you put a cauldron under a dripstone that's under a block with lava directly over it.

@bobjones8610

If you want bookshelves, just loot a stronghold. One library will get you about 4 stacks of bookshelves. If you do this, you’ll have all the books you could possibly need for villager trading and anything else.

@99kayster

Dude, gilded blackstone, while its usefulness is practically naught, is one of the BEST blocks for building. I remember being on a server, just taking like the most part of a day to go down to the nether just to fly around and mine out all the gilded blackstone I could find. Sold it and made SO many diamonds lol

@nightwitchsimp

Getting an Efficiency 5 Shovel still makes sense, since you probably have an Efficiency 5 Villager anyways.

@tioman42

Unbreaking on a flint and steel is useful because it has low durability. It's better to have just one inventory slot used by it instead of 2 or more

@galactick3816

Fun fact about the overworld gold farm - unlike the nether ones this one doesn't rely on the mobcap making it equally efficient on servers regardless of how many people are on (before each player got their own mobcap)

@beckett67poop

9:24 "4 netherite scrap, 4 ancient debris"😂

@arlen7726

The daylight sensor day counter sounds like a component for a doomsday clock

@IsaiahSmith-yc1mq

The IRON-y (lol) that he makes fun of copper the day that Mojang releases MC live for 1.21 with so many new copper-type blocks is actually hilarious.

@ItzTony_

Can I get pinned for no reason

@Flitch300

9:22 - This man just called "gold" "ancient debris" 😂

@huntercool2232

I actually mine down entire Bastions just for the Gilded Blackstone blocks. Are they pointless? Yes. But do they look cool…? ABSOLUTELY! I use them for decoration. 🙂

@ActiusTheSilkWing117

I had to object to how the jukebox is finger quotation "Useless". I love how you can have music in your treehouse base, (I'm a creative mode kinda girl obvi) and it's just relaxing! Plus, in Survival, it's cool to show off to friends.

@dannypipewrench533

6:32 Copper stairs can be made in the stonecutter. One block produces four stairs.

@bennyl9228

Remember what you did with the chest minecarts, and you accidentally bumped them? If you do that with TNT minecarts (100+) then you get the most expensive and destructive object ever.

@theradiance2453

If you're playing multiplayer, minecart chests can be useful for transporting resources from one base to another.
