Hello everyone and welcome to episode 17 of my let's play series we have some odds and ends to do today
this might be a little bit of a bits and bobs episode. So off-camera or rather in a live stream again, I
Organized my storage room, so it's not completely done yet
but generally you know
We got some chests they have stuff in them and they're actually labeled and things are actually in the place that they should be
I really like this. I think it's worked out
Wonderfully many of you have also yelled at me about my villager situation
And I would like to comfort you and show you what i've done over there. I know it may be frustrating sometimes to watch someone
Someone play the game and not know exactly what they're doing on youtube,
but i've had a lot of fun experimenting with these villagers
So this right here
This is my fletcher and you can see I have a stick trade
25 6 equals one emerald and i've completely unlocked this one to master and we have an arrow and poison at the end
Which I think is really cool. Our other villager is in here and this
This is our mending villager. So I have mending for 11 emeralds and a book which in my opinion pretty good deal
Not the best deal you can get but this number has actually been dropping the more that I trade with him. So
Hopefully it'll keep getting better and better I have been doing this trade
And this is what I have so far
So I have four mending books, some emeralds, and some more stuff to trade. this fletcher, except sticks
They also accept string which we have lots of string. We have lots of sticks
So it's been fairly easy to get the emeralds and set this whole thing up. Also if you're hearing noises, it's because I have the
I have these below me and there's actually mobs spawning in them
Hello, who's down here what you're doing?
So because we have mending that means I now have mending on my netherite crown and my wings which is perfect
We can also put mending on our tools now. So let's take these and go do it
So as far as tools go we have several good ones
The main one that I would like to put mending on though is my netherite pickaxe
This is my silk touch pickaxe, very important that we're going to be able to mend this one. So
There goes my anvil. There we go
So that's pretty much the only one that I really needed to mend
As I get more and more good netherite tools i'm going to continue putting these mending books directly onto them
Now I actually have a little bit of a problem in this world
scooter
i'm out of iron
I'm out of iron. I have a few pieces here and there i've eight pieces in my inventory
But I don't have a ton of iron. Okay, like it's
It's pretty pathetic. It's not a lot
and I really think that it's about time
I stop being super poor and go caving so we are going to start this episode with some good
Old-fashioned caving and I actually can't wait. I'm really excited
I've not been caving in a little while
I'm gonna take off my elytra for this and put away some of my stuff get my chest plate back on and get all
Geared up. All right chest plate is back on I think i'm ready to go
I'm, pretty sure there's more caves down in our mine
Oh and there's some iron right here that we haven't actually explored this entire area yet. So
We could probably just do that
And because I know it's gonna drive you guys nuts, i'm gonna heal up my pickaxe a little tiny bit
using our spider grinder
Alright, that should be healed enough for right now. It's only on 370, but that's plenty with unbreaking
We'll heal it even more as we go fortune some coal and stuff
Like, for example right here. This is the perfect way to heal a pickaxe
I love it
This was the main area that I wanted to come to because although I have explored this ravine before I haven't really been through
And collected all of the resources from it and I have not explored any of the caves that come off of the system. So
Really important I think to be here
Whoa, there's grass. I think an enderman brought
I think an enderman brought some grass down
That's very funny
We are going to need a mob farm eventually as well
So lighting up the caves like this is actually doing us good in a couple of different ways
Lighting up the cave stops stuff from spawning down here when we're up above. So if I ever go ahead to make a mob farm
Up in our village. It'll be great because nothing can spawn in the caves and we'll get better rates in our farm
Oh, I have milk on me again
My bad, good timing though. Oh my gosh. Look
It's a mine shaft
Oh my goodness. Yes. I'm so excited
Okay
We are about to explore a mine shaft
On hard difficulty i'm terrified, but i'm also very excited
Oh my gosh
It's beautiful
Oh i've missed caving, oop- excuse you
You scared the life out of me jeez
How rude honestly I was just exploring. Oh, dear
That doesn't look good. Okay, i'm gonna recover from poisoning
You are not- no, i'm good
Okay
Hang on. Just give me a second. I'll be all right
Oh, there's so many caves. Oh, child. No, no, no, no, sir two children?
That's just unnecessary. Come on
Not cool and a skeleton in the dark, it's enough. Oh, dear
Oh, dear. Oh deary me. Oh, dear
I've been i've been poisoned. I've been struck. I hate them
I hate them. I'm not 100 sure what to do in this scenario
Like I guess I light it up as much as possible, right? Oh gosh
Run through light up. Oh god. It's a ravine
Huh
No, no no, no, no, sir
No
Ha. Okay two hits with the sword. That's not bad. It's totally
Doable oh chest yes. Yes. Yes. Yes
Game tag oh scooter's gonna have a name
Yes
I'm, so excited I to take this with me, you know what this also means that I can grab some shears
And I can use them to pick up cobwebs which we can decorate with
Ah, it's a builder's dream
Okay
What's the game plan? This is a spawner
100 that's a spawner
um
I don't think that disabled it but
Oh, no, here it comes hi
Hi, you little devil. Go away. Oh it poisoned me. Of course it did. Oh, yes another chest another chest. Ah, we're winning
We're winning if there's anything to win we're winning. Um
Okay. This one's not quite as good as the other one, but i'll take it. What can I get rid of?
So much random stuff. It would absolutely be my death if I fell down here
Like, that'd be it i'd be over
Okay, this is the danger area
I really think this is three cave spider spawners
I know that sounds excessive but
There's a lot of web like, oh my gosh, there is that's literally another one right there
Why dude? Why are you there?
Come on
At least they're easy to kill they hurt a lot but they're squishy oh
Spicy okay. I see I see why you were there
Okay. Can I go under do you mind?
I need some lighting. There we go
There's never just one creeper is there so it's always two or three. It's never one
okay, I made it back to this like
Central hub. That's kind of burned. Oh, that's a spawner
Oh, that's a spider right next to lava like really
It's ever been a worse place to put a cave spider spawner than right there. Really? That's what oh, come here. Come here
Gosh
Another chest another chest golden apple. All right, cool
How does this go on for so long like genuinely?
I've been recording for an hour. I've been in this mine shaft for an entire hour and i've not explored probably half of it
I i'm-
I don't know how to
how to do this
Oh, gee, is this the surface?
This is the surface of
Excuse me we were dead when we were on diamond level
We were on diamond level
That mine shaft
Goes from diamond level over by my mine
to
Surface level by the shack
I'm confused, but it gives me an opportunity to drop off my stuff. So i'm okay with it
Um
Um
No, no, no, no, uh-uh
No, i'm okay actually
Oi, what the heck scooter?
What the heck
What did I do to deserve this genuinely though like
Oh and there's a zombie on a chicken, of course there is that's what we needed on top of all of this
Oh gosh
Okay, i'm swimming. Oh and there's a trident guy. There's a trident guy. This is not the time
This is not the time trident person. This is not it. Nope. Nuh. Uh, my witch's hut has been taken over too
I'm scared i'm scared
kitty
You protect me kitty
Here we go. Don't you break that door? It's my door. Don't you break that?
So there's an advantage to these trapdoors
Look look look at him. Just look at him. What?
What kind of party is this
Where's your friend with the trident? Huh? Where'd he go?
Oh, I found him I found the trident guy, okay. Well, it's almost morning. Oh, there's trident guy. Hey
Oh, this is bad, it's not good. This is not good at all. This was a mistake
Hey
Skeleton, give it up. What a dramatic
Night, huh you watching you you see out there? That was a lot. That was a lot
I threw my sword at it. I threw my sword in
Panic, it was not that was not the ideal panic option. Um
Oh, dear
Oh, oh, dear. All right. Hang on. Let me let me recover give me a second. I did dump off my inventory and
ah
dear
All right that creeper blew up was very dramatic
Don't you think scooter didn't like that
Didn't like that one bit and it's made me realize we need a better place for fighting and also our cat needs a name
kitty
You did such a good job of defending this place. You know that
i'm gonna name you
Luna a lot of people suggested that name and I think is suiting to our witchy cat. So this is luna scooter
Come on, leave luna alone scooter
Come come. Come luna doesn't want your company. I'm sure of it
So after fighting all of those mobs and bringing them all the way over to the witches hut here I think it's finally a good
Idea that we actually work on having an area to properly fight mobs in those types of situations
Like what if instead of bringing them over to the witch hut we had a tower where we could properly defend
This whole area and fight phantoms and all of that stuff. What do you think scooter? It's a pretty good idea, huh?
Let's go get building
So i've cleared out this little area right here of a bunch of the trees and I think this is going to be the perfect
area to put a little tower
It's kind of on the divide of the birch forest and this little plains area and it's just outside my village
I see no reason why there couldn't be a little watchtower right on that hill seems like a great place to fight mobs
Scooter do you think scooter by the way, as you can see was given the name tag. Absolutely beautiful
Unfortunately my video of it did get corrupted so I don't have that clip but it was only like a seven minute clip
Of me literally giving scooter the name so I don't mind too much
I am gonna put the tower I think kind of right on the corner of this hill like right about here
So maybe just build it up. Oh scooter. Can you move your butt a little bit a little bit in there you go. Thank you
Just like so this size should work and we'll just go straight up scooter
You're making this a little bit challenging. I'm not gonna lie to you. Can you come over here?
So my plan is to not go too tall with this. Like I I think honestly about here is probably good
It's got a good view of everything going on. Whoa
I love it. And from here. We should be able to shoot any potential mobs
We're not up too high to aim at them. I am going to build up the base of this structure a little bit
So basically on each corner like this just building up a little extra kind of bulk at the base
I think this is going to add a nice design and flair and make it look really sturdy
Yeah, that looks great so far. That's perfect. That's exactly what I imagined there. I do however need to go chop down some wood
So, uh off to the mega taiga I go, I guess
This is the home of your people scooter. This is where I got you originally
That feels like so long ago now
It's been awesome having a pet dog in minecraft
Don't worry. I am replanting as I go
I think one of the keys to having this be a pretty awesome little watch tower for myself is to have it be almost
Castle like in details, but still have it match the village very much
So I think i'm gonna overhang some granulations up here for the castle and kind of see how that looks that's pretty epic
I like it
I think it's worked out
It looks good with a little bit of wood mixed in with this and a lot more texturing. I think this will look great
What do we think of little fence details like this?
It might be overkill. I worry i'm over detailing things sometimes but i'm gonna try it
Then of course, we do want those classic castle granulations up here, which i'm gonna do with some stairs
I'm debating adding a second layer up here with just a roof over it. So
Not putting any walls in up here so that we can still see out perfectly fine completely unobstructed and shoot our arrows
But we do have a roof over our heads for phantoms so far. I don't hate it. I think that's pretty good
I think that's a nice way to get a little bit of wood in
Hey
Cool. All right, i'm happy i'm happy. All I have to do now is add the roof
I've decided to do this roof in an outline of dark oak to give me some contrast but i've gone with spruce kind of
On the inside of it just to tie it all together
Hopefully this will work out
And then of course back to the spruce for the main part of the roof
All right taking a little flight down so we can get a good reveal
Oh
Okay
All right
I don't like the roof
I don't like the roof. I don't like the edge. I can fix it. I can fix it
I like the tower. I don't like the roof
Rooms are hard. Okay, let me fix it. I'ma bulk it up. I don't like the slabs
Let me explain the reason I don't like this roof
We have this very thin half slab coming across here, but the bottom part right here
This foundation is very very thick
So it doesn't make any sense for this to be this
Thin so the way that i'm going to fix this is simply by coming in with some full blocks and just making it a lot
thicker
Now this might seem like common sense. But genuinely I know a lot of people struggle with roofs and I struggle with roofs too. So
Hopefully that helps that's quite a lot thicker now and I think that's going to make all the difference
We might even pop the half slabs out one like so and then what we can do underneath to balance that is
I can either put slabs across there or I can go in with trap doors across there
So for example some trapdoors just to cap that off
Yeah, that's gonna look way better. All I have to do. Is that on all the sides easy?
Definitely need a quick lantern. Um right in the middle here. Where's that? There we go
Bam, yes. Yes
I think that's gonna be a lot better. Let's hop down and see
All right. That's way better. I still think there's some fixes that can be done here. It's not perfect
I'm, not super happy with that slabs. I think we can smooth that out with some dark oak trap doors, but i'm not sure
I have to play with it for now, though
Let's work on actually kind of ruining the area around it. And also I want a little
What a little like tower addition to the side. I like doing that like what we have with the lighthouse
What do you think scooter? are we doing okay?
So I think for the little kind of shack that's gonna be off the side of it
I'm actually gonna do it on the back side. I think that's gonna make the most sense
So I think for this bottom entrance i'm just gonna come out barely from the side of it. Just right here
And kind of make a little a little something out of some stairs and see see what I can come up with here
To kind of connect this up and have a nice doorway in the back here. I was gonna do oakwood for the walls originally
But the more i'm looking at it the more i'm thinking we just kind of extend the cobble out
Not sure right. Let's get a little look at the side profile
Okay, okay
I don't hate it. I don't I think the cobble was smart. It transitions a lot easier. I think that's good
I think that's good. I don't know
I don't know, but I think it's good. I think I kind of love it
It's kind of good right maybe I can kind of put a slab there to kind of wrap that around a little bit but gosh
It's really working out. scooter?
What do you think? What do you think of our watchtower?
I think it is absolutely fantastic. Needs a little path coming up to it, but that's something we can totally work out
Not a big deal. Of course, we come in on the inside here. We've got some areas for supplies
I think i'd like to put a bed here
And coming up to the top. We have a great view of this entire world
This is awesome, I love it
Shifting gears though now towards the end of the episode. I do think it's about time that we prepare to go get some more
Netherites we haven't really gotten any to be honest
Uh, well we have some but it's not a lot. It's not a lot
I think we can totally prepare and get a whole bunch more of the ancient debris and netherite scrap
This does mean however, I need to be well geared up
So i'm putting on all of my diamonds my best gear i'm gonna put some gold on as well. And uh, let's go in
i'm going to be using the string that we got from the spider grinder to
Get a whole bunch of wool and then i'm going to use that wool to make a whole bunch of beds
Right off we go on another nether adventure
Hopefully this is not too eventful and I just get what I need and I get out
An update on my tunnel I I have widened it. I haven't decorated it, but it's ready to be decorated sort of
Right my boots
I look good i'm ready to go
It's time
Okay, i'm heading down to my usual mining spot. This is at y-15. Sorry about the head hitting
Here we are
So today i'm gonna use beds i've not used beds before with this method so i'm kind of excited to see how it works
I'm nervous, but in theory i've been told that doing this I won't die
Let's just go for it, I guess
Oh my gosh, whoa
That is really fun, but really really really messy, okay, um, let's keep doing it I guess
Whoa
Ouch
Okay, that one hurt that one hurt I feel like I did something wrong there
I'm, not very good at this yet
this method
Is terrifying to me. I know that you guys have all recommended it like crazy, but I- I really am not gonna lie
I like peacefully just mining for it. I've had so much luck that way
And this is hard. I'm sure i'm probably just being a massive wimp. But oh gosh
ah
It's so loud
It's so not peaceful it's like the opposite of this entire channel i'm making sure that between each blast i'm definitely moving to another chunk
So that's definitely not the problem. I'm, not really sure what i'm doing wrong. Oh, I found some. Oh my gosh
Finally, I was almost right next to where I was digging though
my gosh
Dig around it make sure I got it all yeah just one piece. All right
Oh, I found a little bit more oh my gosh
So I found one piece
From a bed and I found three pieces by just mining to find a place to put a bed
Oh my goodness guys, I do think that mining is just more effective for me i'm not gonna lie
I'm enjoying the bed thing. It's it's wild but it's it's just oh, dear
Not as much as opening up with it I have to say
I think i'm in the wrong spot for this one
All right moving on
Oh found a little bit more again. Just just by mining
I was gonna place the bed, but I didn't need to
All right. My nether right pickaxe is at
64 durability, which means I really really can't really be using it anymore
But um i'm gonna go just a tiny tiny bit further
And just just stick a bed right here
Just to see if we can get one more piece
Ah, no luck. No luck. I to be honest for the amount of wool that I just used. I have 12 left
That's not a lot of ancient debris. I found a lot more ancient debris when I was just going with my pickaxe
And I don't know if that's just down to my method and me being not very good or not very familiar with it, but
Maybe i'm doing something wrong
I don't know.
I need you guys to let me know because
The amount of people in my comment section who are very very angry that I was not using beds
For the fact that the beds don't seem to be that effective for me
It it's a little
Disproportionate. let me know
I am also keeping in mind that you prob- some of you are probably getting the information about the beds from other youtubers
Who are attempting it and I have no idea how many hours those youtubers spend mining?
Versus the like 15 minutes that I just spent which is arguably not very long
So maybe that's just the idea. Maybe I just need to spend a lot more time
Sun is rising. It's another beautiful day. Look at our home. Look at our tower
Ah, i'm so happy with it. Hello dolphin! so cute
Always good to come home after an adventure. All right
Well now that our ancient debris is acquired. I guess it's only suiting that we put it in the blast furnace and actually get
Our blocks. Ancient debris is smelting up into our scrap always exciting always exciting
That armor stand scares me every time and of course once we have four pieces of it we can quickly just make a netherright ingot
Ah, it's glorious. It's glorious and we should be able to get three netherright ingots. Oh my gosh
I can upgrade three things. All right, let's do it again. Look at that
Three netherright ingots, ah, i'm rich. I'm rich. I started this episode with no iron
I'm ending it with lots of iron and three netherright ingots. I love it. I love it
I think the main important thing for me to upgrade right now is going to be my tools and also my boots my boots
Are super important because they have feather falling on them and when i'm building tall things
Like a big tree super good to have that so I think we're gonna do a big upgrade to these boots
First of all, protection IV. super important, definitely want that.
Secondly unbreaking III. super important, definitely want that.
Next up, mending
This is making these boots pretty much as good as they can be, except for
Soul speed, which is the other thing that I would want
So, we do have the soul speed and frost walker enchantments for boots
However, soul speed is not going to be able to go on these boots
so, what i'm going to end up doing is having a second pair of boots that have our soul speed on them and that'll hopefully
Uh, help us out with that
So we'll end up with a pair of nether boots and a pair of overworld building boots. And I think that's a good
Compromise, building boots. Oh my gosh, they look epic
There they are and they have mending on them, so, they're ready to go on our feet. Ah, it's beautiful
Looks so good
The two other tools that we use the most are my axe and my shovel. I know you guys are waiting on the sword
But I've actually would like to do netherite on a looting sword and not just a sharpness four sword. Although it would be cool
Um, i'm not i'm just not quite ready for the sword yet
But I will go ahead and put netherrite on my shovel and netherite on my axe
epic
And with that ladies and gentlemen
I think another episode has gone by. this has been a really fun and spontaneous one. I didn't plan really
Anything that I did in this episode and that was a really fun way to do it
I hope that you guys have been able to enjoy this. Um, it's definitely a little bit different from my normal format
We did a lot of fighting mobs a lot of mining and only one build but i'm really happy with the build
And I think it's a great addition to the world
Thank you so much for watching everyone, and I hope I'll see you in the next episode. Bye
