Your channel is amazing. I'd never played Minecraft until my son wanted to try it. Neither of us knew what to do at all so we've been watching lots of your videos together, and playing together and it's really brought us much closer and we both look forward to spending that time together. Thank you for what you do. It's more impactful that you might think at first glance.
That's really sweet, warms my heart :)
I'm a OG Here & I Agree as much as I know I'm a OG here❤
I 100% agree with this his videos are great for beginners and can be for people who have played for a long time
You are best father a son could have ❤❤
This is what it’s all about right here
For me, the biggest danger of creepers is that they can sneak up from behind you and blow up before you have time to react. This is why I'm really strict w/ my spacial awareness in hardcore. Make sure to keep the door to your house closed (iron door + buttons helps a bunch). Avoid walking around at night, and if you do, keep moving and watching your back. It's even good to keep this in mind during the day. Anything that keeps you facing in one direction (specifically crafting + dealing with other menus) should only be done in areas you know are secure.
true and thing is their walking is completely silent and make no noise until they pssst and explode. Even in subtitles it just says footsteps which could totally blend in with your own footsteps.
For me they always come by two pair one in the back and one in front
@@XAnderson27 What I do is I always turn back when I hear a slightly unexpected footstep; sometimes it'll be a pig, but that's how I avoid dying by creepers. Plus, creepers are designed to stay away from you on a corner of your screen and to turn their backs on you so you can't recognize their faces, so sometimes all you need is to double check that tree on your left side
Bro I just got blown up while crafting by a creeper in my hard core
@@SA-Brawl yup thats why you are always aware of your surroundings and get maxed armor first thing in your world asap before anything else.
Been playing MC for years and I never knew you could hold an Enderman in place with a staring contest
Same. I've played Minecraft since learning about it from Notch himself (at a Google tech talk a long time ago, I didn't even know what Minecraft was, it just sounded like an interesting talk).
Does NOT work on bedrock. I've tried this and found the hard way
Advice for the warden from someone who cleaned multiple ancient cities in hardcore: Build multiple nether portals in the ancient city, place them smart and use them as your way of escape. After teleporting away, the Warden immediately loses sight and will dissapear immediately after you return back... if you keep sneaking/making no noise ofc.
That's a great idea! My thought was to have a stack of ender pearls for emergency getaways if cornered. That and obviously place a bed and chest at the edge of the city to set your spawn, maybe wear disposable iron armour and keep a stack of wool on hot bar to pillar up 21 blocks
@@curt6068 yeah - right click on the bed to reset your spawn point there, so if you die you are on the edge of the city and not too far from your stuff. It'd make sense to wear disposable iron armour though instead of your best so it's less of an issue if you can't find the point you died in time
I just go fast enough to break everything that screams lol. Thats the only way i stay alive since im not about to crawl ever again. Let him spawn, oh well, dig him out and by that time its not that complicated to clear stuff quick. I spent a few days trying everything to kill him fast, but noooo, so just speed run with elytra, after a few cities are done, you can predict where everything is to grab fast. Oh, potion of night sight lol. Game changer.
The phantoms are by far the worst for me, i dont run for a bed, i fly away but sometimes they will chase you! Honey blocks and cactus work well at making a shield around your base.
The speedrun strat was to get above it and repeatedly drop dripstone on it by putting it on a trapdoor and opening and closing it
Ender pearls are always a good thing to have next to your water bucket in your hot bar. In many of these dangerous situations you talked about, teleporting away is a sure way to escape the danger. For example, the Warden. If you don’t have elytra, you can just teleport away instead.
Absolutely, ender pearls are great for getting out of near death situations
@@EyecraftmcBut one more thing about creepers and it is the most dangerous one but you haven't mentioned it. So it is that when creeper fall from above starting charging in the middle and explode just as soon as it hits you. I lost my enchanted diamond gears with hax on why.... Its so annoying can you give advice for that too lol pls answer this. Thank you beforehand 😅
@@lalolab305that’s just unlucky bro, not much you can do there. Best advice is to try not to get in situations where you can get jumped like that, and stay aware of your surroundings. If you have space to run then you should be able to get far enough away to not take damage. If it’s a tight space tho then idk man
@@orionn3246 no it wasn't unlucky. happened 4 times so far while digging down they keep dropping and bombing lol. And also happened to my friends. In caves zombies, skeletons, creepers and any other hostile mobs doent care dying and jump down quite far away so. It is part of game mechanics i think.
I straight up prefer ender pearls over rockets when it comes to running away from the Warden
10:45 Another alternative guys, you can sometimes just mine a block below in front of a lava flow, especially when you're mining in a tunnel. It wont get to you.
This is what I do and it's far faster and more reliable than using blocks to stop the lava
+1
@@ClassicMist360 Yep, and also it's quicker than using blocks.
Also cuz u can’t use blocks in ur offhand in bedrock edition
@@wallyandjilly375I'm on mobile and I've gotten pretty good and plugging holes as soon as I see the light. Also mining ahead a few blocks away helps. With a fast pick, you practically have to mine ahead if you don't wanna make tons of holes in the tunnel floor
Literally keep dying in my hardcore worlds so this video is coming at the perfect time. Fun fact: did you know that skeletons can shoot and agro through powdered snow blocks? I didn’t. An almost 100 day hardcore world gone cause of powdered snow and a skeleton.
i’m sorry man that sucks :(
Irl days or in game?
@@darkshadow2314 in game
@@deenaavers6946 thanks! Just annoying cause I thought I was safe to heal but the skeleton had other plans
If skeletons are in powdered snow for too long they will turn into a stray
My theory is players die in Minecraft because of creepers, but some players die in Minecraft because of creepers without knowing that there's a creeper near or behind them. (in my experience, i die because of creepers because i wasn't aware that there was a creeper because they creep up behind you hence the name, creeper
guess how many times he said creeper
A couple notes here: 1: in Bedrock 1.20.40 the boat clutch has been enabled, boats now negate falldamage on both versions. 2: In Bedrock the trick of staring at Endermen does *not* work at all, you'll get yourself killed if you try (like I did ages ago)
there isnt even a crosshair in pcket edition, so its kinda hard to stare at endermen at all, since you have to find the center of your screen
@@vogeline_there is a cross hair if you want there to be
@@OGPvPMC oh thx for telling me
Another thing. In bedrock, skeletons rapid fire when you get close, but they do not strafe
@@r.a1301 how is that useful though?
Once again, a comprehensive and practical guide! Didn’t know about the powdered snow in the nether trick! And now I have a bunch of MLG moves to practice! Thanks again for all the great info - best KZheadr ever!! 💚🌲
Thanks so much evergreen!!
@@Eyecraftmcw
For skeletons, on bedrock, the arrows will even bounce off the shield and damage the skeleton. So it's worth it to get closer to them if you're unarmed. To allow the bouncing arrow to hit the skeleton. I've killed a few this way.
Yeah, that works on Java, too. It takes a bit to kill the skeleton this way since the damage arrows deal is directly tied to their speed, and arrows that bounce off you shield aren't moving that fast, but damage is damage.
pretty unrealistic feature. arrows are not bouncing of wooden shields IRL
@@artemthecossack2054it’s practical though, especially since you can’t attack and block at the same time
The only problem about the bedrock's skeletons are their ai, unlike java's skeleton, bedrock skeletons have rigged ai, if you would notice, in java, if youre trying to spam an item to try to kill it, theyll have a hard time to load/recharge their bow, unlike in bedrock, they can still attack you without having a hard time loading up their bow while youre spamming, they also have a really nice aim which makes them more dangerous than a bedrock creeper in early games, its also hard to do the juke method against them
@@artemthecossack2054lmfao there are plenty of unrealistic features in Minecraft
You can also use hay bales to reduce fall damage, very useful to take to the Nether especially as you can also use them to make backup food in emergencies!
21:35 There actually is another way to stop yourself from drowning really easily, and thats placing sugar cane on a dirt, gravel, or sand LEDGE. Even if you are in a stone cave or something just put a dirt block downon a flat surface to create a ledge, and place 2 sugar cane on top!
My favorite tip for dealing with wardens (and sculk sensors): You can actually sprint jump WHILE sneaking! Simply start sprint jumping, and then, before your feet hit the ground, hold sneak. You’ll be quite fast and undetectable! Even faster with the fast sneak enchantment.
Bonus points because it looks hilarious with swift sneak III lol
Trident drowneds have been my newest killer. I have had my boat hit by a trident then been hit by the trident twice before I've had a shield a few times, in hardcore. I need a training hall with "The Worst" in my practice world, I think.
Same here. They do tons of damage and you can't escape their aimbot. Not sure if it's true but I'm under the impression that shields break way faster when hit by a trident.
@@Sandkasten36 They do! But it’s way easier to get away between throws rather than swimming, without armor.
I genuinely think we all pretty much check daily for new eyecraft vids. You make the best MC content on KZhead Eye! I’d love to more and more vids and definitely livestreams again! Much love Eye🤍
Thank you!
Accurate, add duckio, sb737 and FitMC to the checklist
I second the live streams! I love watching starting over from scratch over and over again lol
1. Thank you for your work, I really need someone to patiently explain minecraft to me, and I feel I’m getting better at the game. What is more, this helps me a lot, as I am very scared of mobs, bad villagers, caving, nether etc, cos I’m scared to die. So yeah, it helps me a lot, I feel safer thanks to you. 🙏 2. I LOVE that you describe everything so calmly, you have a vibe of Animal Planet narrator, e.g. ,,As you can see, I got closer to the mob and I died.” And I absolutely ADORE it 😂❤
I usually use the “running away from warden” method also. However, sometimes I’ll run into a cave that has a dead end in it. And the warden will come and kill me…
I lost all my netherite armor weapons tools right before they added the upgrade things trying to run away from a warden in the darkness. I couldn't find my stuff cuz I couldn't figure out where I ran . & I still haven't been able to find the netherite upgrade things and have diamond stuff
@@jameswesten2018 Good chance it destroyed the items. Happened to me. Supposedly it's just a bug. Don't know if that makes you feel better or worse.
I’m pretty sure that’s called despawning
@@Andrew-pq3lj nah it’s called me getting my butt handed to me and losing all my crap
I think it's better to wear disposable iron armour when raiding ancient cities. Also, if the warden spawns then I think it's probably better to resist the urge to panic and sneak away first rather than run - they can't see you so as long as you sneak. And if you have space to move away from them far enough soon enough then they'll lose your scent. That or use ender pearls and or blocks of wool on hot bar to barricade them or pillar up. Just remember they can shoot through walls so you still need to ensure you get 20 blocks away from them
About the knockback enchantment: I highly recommend AGAINST getting it at level 2, and sometimes even level 1. It makes killing mobs in general a lot harder, since it launches them away, and you have to run after them to finish them off. About fire protection: in both java and bedrock, there is a sort of points system with the protection enchantments, and in each category, there is a maximum amount of points you can get. In bedrock, I believe you can max out all categories with max protection enchantments, but I'm not sure. In Java, however, this is not possible. If you get the max protection level on all armor, you'll be a little short on all specific categories, since protection gives fewer points, but in all categories. Here's the kicker: if you want to max out one category, you can do so by getting protection 4 on 3 pieces, then the specific resistance on the last piece; i.e., if you want maximum fire protection, get protection 4 on 3 armor pieces, and fire protection 4 on the last one. Getting fire protection 4 on all armor pieces doesn't give any extra advantage, and simply leaves you open to other forms of attack, like projectiles and explosions. About endermen: Fire aspect is a no-go. They have a chance at teleporting every time they take fire damage, which makes them teleport around more, prolonging your fight. As long as the enderman is mad at you, you are vulnerable, so you want to kill it as quickly as possible. In fact, fire aspect in general is really only useful for getting cooked food when killing animals. Some mobs on fire can in turn set you on fire, and while the extra damage to them isn't very useful, the extra damage to you is dangerous. Ph1lza learned this lesson when he lost his 5 year hardcore world, and this fire aspect psa is brought to you by him.
Does Blast Protection work the same way as Fire Protection? Thanks
@@dannyc7839 Yes, the points system works the same with Fire protection, Blast protection, and Projectile protection, i.e. to get the maximum protection in any one of those 3 categories you only need protection 4 on 3 pieces and the specific protection type at level 4 on the last piece of armor.
I don't get why people don't like the knockback enchantment, it makes extremely deadly mobs like creepers and wither skeletons 60% less effective than what they would have been and the argument of knockback pushing them away too far is dumb because you obviously wouldn't use it on a skeleton to give them an advantage, not to mention if you have knockback enchantments, chances are you're far enough in the game to have a bow in your inventory anyway.
@@kornknot2726 I don't use a bow too often, but when I do, I use it to kill creepers. If a mob is dangerous due to melee, you use a bow, not knockback. Knockback requires you get in their danger zone, often more than once, to actually kill them. But for mobs too weak to really have a danger zone, like zombies, it makes killing them a lot more inconvenient.
@kornknot2726 I enjoy knockback but it's never the first enchantment I want out of a sword. Going in fast and knocking mobs around is always fun even if it isn't always the smartest. Also a lot of fun to use near cliffs or as part of defenses near your base. Knockback sword with bow is very satisfying and allows very fluid crowd control, or is nice when teamed up with a friend with a bow. It's very situational and for me more for fun, but since mine craft is a game that's fine. I do think they are superior for creeper slaying than regular swords...and not having to use arrows is nice if you don't have a mob farm or skeleton spawner...I think the real anti-creeper sleeper is the water bucket/lava bucket. Either push them away or burn them from around a corner, no arrows or enchanting needed...or just flint an steal them.
One tip on bedrock with elytra deaths is to deactivate it using the jump button then reactivate it. This instantly reduces your speed making it so you don't hit the ground very hard 😁 I use this technique pretty much every time I use elytra.
You can deactivate the elytra midair with the jump button in bedrock?? I always wished java had that; at least now the hotbar armor swap thing provides a pseudo elytra deactivation method.
Glad to see chorus fruit getting some credit, they are valuable when raiding end cities, to escape to the safe ground in an instant.
Another way to avoid drowning is spamming torches against a wall. Every torch gives you a few frames of air so mashing it will slowly let you regain air. Can be helpful if you're spelunking and want to explore/escape an underground water area without slowly digging out air pockets.
Eyecraft, love the guides as always but i thought i should point something out (also a video idea?) 11:52 This has bugged me for a while when i see people do it, but stats like fire protection are unnecessary to have on more than 2 pieces of armor. I watched a video once that explained pretty well how the different enchantments worked, and it explained the different types of damage a player can take (that enchantments can lower). That being standard damage (like a zombie hitting you) projectiles, fire, and explosive. A player is only able to have 5 protection "bars" against each of these types of damage, with each type of enchantment giving a bar for its power. So projectile protection 3 would give 3 bars of protection against projectiles. This is all true except for normal protection, which gives 1 to each bar at max level, and partials for each other. This means that full prot 4 armor would give all protection types 4 bars. This means that if you want to get max fire resistance while still having good on other damage reductions you should have 3 prot 4 and 1 fire prot 4. However I still recommend having all protection 4 on your armor as the damage difference is very little and it helps you reduce every other type of damage as well.
Great to see someone bringing this up! The one situation where two pieces of specialized protection gear (fire, blast, etc.) is useful is when using Elytra. The only way to get maximum protection for a specific type in that case is to wear one armor with protection 4, and the other two pieces with the same specialized protection (also at rank 4).
I mean yeah this entire video is effectively the epitome of “don’t have a skill issue” but honestly that warden trick of literally putting it in the time out hole is hilarious and I’ll definitely be trying that if I have a fast enough tool. Also, I believe the pillaring up strategy against hoglins is a new thing with the mob reach changes? I could have sworn they had the reach to hit 3 blocks above itself, as I always needed to pillar up 4 blocks and use a trapdoor to put myself into crawling mode. I think some of the tips here too are a bit too dated or specific to be used by most players, and some deaths I feel are much more common in regards to myself and those I hang out with were not shown, such as piglin brutes inside of bastions and poison from witches and cave spiders. Some disclaimers such as Knockback being incredibly detrimental for fighting ranged mobs such as skeletons and blazes along with possibly making it hard or impossible to retrieve their loot, and that basic Protection enchants also reduce fire and lava damage, and that maybe a full set of fire protection is overkill
I always find moving around the monsters seems to be easy if you just run in different directions, and for the skeleton just move to the side
Most of my deaths come from making a mistake and falling, or just suddenly getting overpowered by a bunch of mobs. As someone who has played bedrock edition a lot I'd like to bring up a few things that may be helpful. 1. He is right, the boat will not kill you in Java as long as your in the boat and stuff, but for us on bedrock. Here's what you have to do, GET out of the boat just before you hit the ground. It's like in mario where you sacrifice yoshi to clutch a jump back up from the cliff before you go offscreen and die. 2. That actually makes a lot of sense! I do the same thing in bedrock edition with my elytra and by SLOWING DOWN and circling around your destination until you land. :) 3. Now here's an important one. Please check out his most recent video about netherite. That video has my comment in it about what I said about netherite mining. If I'm not mistaken I believe it's there. I talked about "fire protection" like he says in this video, you don't have to enchant your whole armor set with that. Just enchant the boots with fire protection, the protection may not be as effective against lava, but the cool thing is that as soon as you build up out of the lava, and land, you can count the burning 🔥, after a few burns... THE FIRE GOES OUT. compared to anything else you can use. I highly recommend having a spare boot pair with this enchantment, so that way, whenever you explore the nether it will be pretty dang hard to die. IVE TRIED IT. 4. Also other ways to avoid lava and fall damage, like when you mine for example, make sure your always sneaking. You definitely do not want to dig DIRECTLY ABOVE YOU, or DIRECTLY BELOW YOU, at any time you have a very small chance of falling into trouble. And what I'm also building a habit for is mining a staircase down to the mine, this is much safer and my habit is staying 1 block backward always while mining a block its a cycling system mine>testfor lava or a hole>then walk 1 step forward, this will save you from from falling, if you end up encountering it from the blocks you mined, which is away from you. But if you are like rushing, just stand right between 2 blocks, and then dig straight down in a 1x2 area. Remember to always sneak. However this is a disadvantage for survival multi-player because if you leave the hole open, in a great area to move around in, especially in an area where theres hills, someone could fall in. So if you do this, be sure you fill in the hole before you continue mining down. I hope that was helpful. Also amazing tips Eyecraft. I actually learned a few things from this. Your content is very helpful and fun to watch. Thank you. :)
eyecraftMC: Every netherite item is lava resistant. Lodestone: Imma end this man's whole career
A few more that deserve a mention imo: -Piglin Brute: Bastions have very little space to fight and there's lots of brutes, very easy to get stuck in a corner and die -End Void: Your ender pearl hits the side of an island and you fall to your death -Elytra in tight space: You aren't wearing your chestplate and get killed by mobs, usually on long-term hardcore worlds like Ph1lza in the cave and Jon and Dan to raid farm vexes -Iron Golem: You either build your 3-tall tower near a hill that they then climb to hit you, or you try mining a block but accidentally hit them and either die in 1 hit or can't escape
Brutes can be trapped with a boat
-Piglin Brute: loot bastions from the top so that brutes are always below you. then hit their heads or lava them -End Void: always wear an elytra and have rockets in your hot bar in the end. chestplates aren't too important in the end -Iron Golem: if you accidentally hit one in mid/late game, deal with them the same way you run away from a player that is more stacked than you on pvp servers, water/lava them, pearl away, etc. enderman tips might also work
@@jack_of_no_trades The end void one usually happens when you're looking for your first elytra
Dude! I did not know that block trick with a creeper and I played Minecraft for almost 10 years now 💀 Thank you!
Your welcome! and thank you for the superchat :D
Skeleton are more dangerous than creepers
They just randomly shoot you first without you even knowing about their existence and they will knock us back to fall off or get attacked by other mobs
🧢
Tell me about it, started a mega snow biome playthrough and the skeletons are relentless 😅
For the record, all endermen are named Dave.
Also anytime you are in areas where creepers can spawn, constantly turning around and looking above and behind you, and not staying in one place, and staying away from places where they can surprise you from around a corner takes away their ability to sneak up on you, and they're very slow, so if you see them first, they're closer to harmless, but still sort of dangerous, but if you know what to do when you see them, so still be careful. Also I recommend enchanting your shield with unbreaking 3 and mending. Then you can always have it ready as long as you keep defeating mobs to repair it with exp.
Pro tip: that rhythm of balancing blocking and hitting mentioned at 7:35 can be used in more or less the same way to avoid being withered by wither skeletons in the nether. If you let them approach with your shield up in one hand and sword in the other, wait until you hear the *thunk* of your shield blocking a hit and then as immediately as you can, slash with the sword. If you do it right, you won't get withered and you'll damage the skeleton as well as knock it back far enough to begin the cycle again. In fact, if you can truly master this technique, it can be utilised to avoid being damaged by almost all of the attacks mobs can make against you. Like.. ever... The exceptions being creeper blasts, enemies with axes, boss type mobs like the warden's special attack and I think perhaps evokers as well? But for literally everything else mobs can do to you, a well timed block/attack rhythm can protect you from 100% of arrows, zombie hits, tridents, hoglin bites... you name it, you're basically invulnerable to it. So much so that the shield is one of the first items i build when i get iron, and from there i more or less make sure i never go anywhere or do anything away from base without carrying a shield in my off hand. It's saved my life more times than i can fathom.
Can axes hit through shields? I am a returning player and everything is scary again!😂
Another epic video, keep it up man! Gonna continue watching.
This is the first general "death prevention" minecraft video I've seen on youtube so Eye gets a like just for that. The stare at endermen trick is cool (didnt know about that), but it would have been nice to get more tips about protecting against creepers when they are creeping. A vast majority of my creeper deaths are because a creeper snuck up on me or spawned in a weird way so as to be undetectable until too late.
Could we get another part of this if there arent other videos planned? This was very helpful for my friend that’s getting into the game. Thank you!
What I use for falling early game is the MLG relog. No damage for a few ticks right as you spawn in. Works best in single player.
This is a great trick for sure
That’s cheating! I approve!!!!! Edit! My cheat is keep inventory… and never killing the dragon. Been playing since Alpha with 3 years off before Horse Update…. For chess…
@@Barbuttthat’s mighty boring
@@bigguy9101 Man! I really let you down. What the heck is wrong with me!? Apologies.
@@bigguy9101 Ooh! Maybe this will thrill you. Hardcore game I actually got some farms going, potions and enchanting… something I rarely do. Played it near a year. Got lost one night nearing death from mobs. Slept. Went out in morning still hurting to tend crops… Creeper, oh man! I’m blown into the sky… half a heart! I’m totally thrilled! Hit ground… Phil fell from a high place! If the creeper killed me I’d be bent… fall damage had me laughing, didn’t expect that. Any entertainment value there?
The memories still hurt 😢 losing all my stuff to lava or a ninja creeper. But we learn and we get better at the game. Thank you for the tips 😊
something i learnt from this video that will definitely be really useful is that you can put yourself out with powder snow in the nether so thank you for actually teaching me something new in this video!
It doesn’t happen as often but falling into lava hurts a lot more because you not only lose all your items but also your experience which can be devastating if you spent a lot of time getting those items and experience.

Amazing video thanks for the tips!!
Thank you very much, my friend. I have watched a lot of videos on your channel and I have benefited a lot. Thank you. You deserve a lot 👍❤️
Wow you always tell me something I never knew I should take to heart. Great vid Eye me and you are just the same I die in MInecraft by fall damage and creppers keep up the good work love you ❤
Blast protection is a great enchantment to deal with surprise creepers, so make sure you have that on your armor if you are going into caves if at all possible. This is only possible after getting an enchanting table though, and that requires a diamond
Thanks for the new content EyecraftMC🎉🙌
One of similarly unfair death is falling with gravel or sand generated without sustenance. Especially in nether, when you are above the lava lake. Needed to be aware of as well
Your videos always help me. Thank you!!
Once again another amazing tutorial/guide wonderful tips and tricks love your videos
You were a huge help throughout my time playing Minecraft and I greatly appreciate it.
Blazes: what really works very well for me is instead of placing the barriers for wither skeletons all 2 blocks above gound, place 2 of them 1 blocks above ground. That will create a perfect protection from blaze shots and lets you eat and recover
Hey eyecraft can you pls continue the survival live series you did on that snowy mountain where you had a green parrot named Grannysmith i enjoyed watching those series a lot
I learned 2 things in this video, and one being that u can make a toy for the warden, where he'll get more focused on that. Which is incredible!
THANK YOU EYECRAFT MC ! , this is exactly what I was just looking for !
Always remember for boat clutches that certain few fall distances break the boat and still make you take fall damage
I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR A VIDEO LIKE THIS THANK YOU
I lost my hardcore world very late game (essentially infinite totems from raid farm) due to several piglin brutes. They popped my totem, I had to equip another, and then they broke that too. I didn’t have any more readily available in my inventory so tried flying away, straight into a block. I “experienced kinetic energy while trying to escape piglin brute.” Late game hardcore death messages are almost always so specific
thank you for your kind tips and tricks
I realize that your voice has become more lively compared to previous videos (too monotonic in the past). Great job!
I didn't know that warped fungus trick!! That's going to help me so much! Thanks!
I really needed something similar to this video! Because I am so afraid of the Nether and I need a guide to help me conquer it!
11:50 heyy eyecraft i learned that special protection enchantments are actually useless to combine if of the same type! meaning maximum specific fire protection is already reached with a fire prot IV armour part! you can still increase it by putting normal prot on all the others though :) aside from that ofc thank you very much for the help!!
2 of each to max as far as I know
The boat method to reduce fall damage works of bedrock now too! They changed it in the new snapshot released today :)
I have well over 5000 hours into Minecraft and have played since 2012. Yet I still watch these videos because of how entertaining they are. Bravo
Once you get a shield, fall damage (or lava) is about your only worst enemy imo
And axe mobs/the warden/sometimes blazes when they shoot your feet/some raid mobs
I always keep a cauldron when I go to the Nether, if you catch fire you can place a water bucket inside and go into it to stop the fire. I find it more convenient than snow buckets (especially when fighting Blazes) because you can use the same bucket of water to stop the fire multiple times before it completely dries out
As someone with around 2000+ hours in TF2 and has grown insanely spy paranoid, turning around every 0.03 seconds is another great strategy to avoid creepers
About the drowning: U can also spamclick a torch on a block where ur head is Will give u air over time With turtle shell, it gives full breath after 1 time
I'm so thankful for this video- I'm trying to stop using /effect to make myself immortal and really need the tips for how to avoid damage 😭
great video it helped a bunch. I do think that you might have gotten the sharp angles confused with obtuse/soft angles, unless the angle you're referring to is the one that wraps around from your back all the way to the sky and ahead of you. idk just seems a bit unintuitive, not that it matters that much as you did demonstrate what you meant.
That Warden trick really helps! I got killed three times in a row because I went back for my stuff. Really tough mob😮
My most common cause of deaths in my hardcore runs. The nether as a whole pretty much. -You cannot bucket clutch due to things vaporizing, if falling on high height to solid, prepare haybales, it reduces 80% of fall damage. Or you could get POWDERED snow which is harder to get, as a substitute to a water bucket. Java boats can negate fall damage when moving, but I'm assuming you fell off by accident and did not ride on the boat on the way down. -Pigmen can screw you over really well. Say you accidentally anger one, and you hide in a wall with a 1 block opening, the babies can still kill you. I carry like nether fences as babies can't jump over that. -Enderman on the end. Never attack them unless under a platform under 2 blocks, and some fences. The fences are for pigmen in case one walks by. DO NOT dig a whole in the wall when attacking endermen, as you won't be able to tell if a pigmen is passing by, and the whole pigmen problem could happen. DO NOT try to trap them in boats, you might miss and just die. -Everywhere you go, to every landmark you go to. Make a cobblestone bridge, 1 block above you, 2 on the side (bottom side), and 1 underneath. This is anti-magma cube, anti-ghast, anti-wither skellys, but not baby pigmen. So as soon as you hit a pigman, barricade yourself and place holes nearby where the babies can fall into. Have some cobble on the (top side) to block from blaze fireballs or ghast fireballs. -Always bring fire-res (which you can get from piglin trading), OR have a golden apple. BOTH can give you fire res when you fall in lava. If you have a fireres splash potion and you're in lava, THROW UP and it'll land back on you. -Most people know that gold armor protects you from piglin aggro. But people forget the other things that aggro them, opening or breaking any container chest/barrel/shulkerbox/etc. Mining Gold. But the biggest thing, is with Piglin Brutes.... Honestly, just run, don't fight them when they'e already aggro'd on you. Run until a safe distance, pillar up, build a bridge until you're over them, and then throw lava onto them so the other piglins don't aggro you. If you can pillar up (up to 4 blocks minimum) WHILE they're aggroing you already, it's riskier that way but less time consuming.
22:20 (you can also use water buckets to pickup-replace-pickup (rinse repeat) the water block at your head level to replenish your air bubbles, this works on both java and bedrock, and only requires a bucket, how ever when combined with a turtle helmet, everytime you pickup a waterblock from your upper body, you get 10 seconds of water breathing.
Rewatching all these videos because I love this man.🎉
Holy shit I remember when this channel was small, good job on growing the channel :D
That's a great idea for a video. Will be very helpful to me. Edit: Hoglins being scared of warped fungus is CLUTCH
The deadliest bit about Creepers is that they make no noise, so they have a tendency to sneak up on you while you're caving. And you only have 0.5 seconds to react in that scenario. Which means the best defense is always just armor. Blast IV set when I'm caving because let's be honest, the only thing dangerous enough to worry about in caves are creepers. Seperate sets for The Nether, Monument Raids, and Deep Dark Raids. In fact, unless you're trying to be as tesource efficient as possible, the only reason you'd need base Prot IV is for Pillager Raids.
it's been a hot minute since I've watched your stuff, and my god I'm so glad you've gotten the recognition you deserve. you've grown by several hundred thousands of subs since I last checked, and I hope you keep growing. Never change, Eye, never change. 👍
Probably my most common deaths are careless use of elytra in my base (not a big deal) and burning up in the nether. I had a really bad death in the Nether once and now I always carry 3 fire res potions on exploration/mining expeditions
Thank you so much! I’m doing a survival world with my brother and my friend, and I really don’t want to die! Do you have any tips to getting to the Nether without ANY ravines or obsidian nearby?
ty this helps a lot
My most common lose of world is: 1 new fresh hardcore world 2 i love using cartography, so i create a map 3 explore that map 4 find a pillager outpost 5 “pillagers are just skeletons with longer cooldown” 6 find out that rush to the top, quick loot and MLG down is hard when they kill you on 3 shots
Lava: *especially* when tunnelling through netherrack, there's no need to carry 'dam' blocks in your off-hand (which I far too often mis-place *beneath* the falling lava, which only makes the situation worse). Instead, since you're obviously already using a (presumably fairly efficient) pick - immediately dig a small hole, directly under or as close as possible to where the lava is about to fall, or has just fallen and is beginning to 'flow'. This only needs to be a single block in size, and below the nearby 'floor' level; Flow mechanics will immediately redirect the path of any nearby falling or flowing lave into this hole. Bonus: the absence of a 'dam' allows you to get one block closer to the lava source, making it easier to collect with a bucket, fill in or close off with a block, at your leisure. Unlike a 'dam' block, you can also dig *around* the lava flowing into the hole, without increasing the spread. Drowning: So long as you have Respiration III (helmet enchantment), you will *never* drown. The air bubbles will still count down (a little slower than 'usual') and the drowning animation will activate, but even 'natural' regeneration (ensure your hunger bar is full) will replenish your health, faster than damage occurs. [Both these tips have only been confirmed in Minecraft Java. I don't play the Bedrock version].
Thanks this was helpful
for wardens i find it's best to just sneak away, running or flying is far more dangerous and makes it take longer for the warden to despawn
with aqua affinity on your helmet and a high efficiency pickaxe you can dig yourself an air pocket under water. great way to mine in underwater caves or ravines.
Very good solutions to those mobs, the ones that I hate are the guardians, especially in open water with nothing to block their attacks, or their view of you.
1) never dies fron creeper: creepers are one of the most dangerous mob in Minecraft because you'll never know when he can explode, especially inside the caves. 2) never dies from skeletons. Just avoid and stay away from them. 3) Wardens? Never spawn that. Be quiet and carefull.
fire resistance potions are great for fighting blazes since that will make you immune to their fireballs
One thing I'm surprised you didn't mention about skeletons (and this applies to pillagers/pigmen with crossbows too) to help with shield timing is that you can actually see when they are loading an arrow to shoot (that's when you put your shield up) vs when they don't have an arrow ready (that's when it's safe to attack)
Shield + protection is probably best way to avoid damage Shield is a deus ex of surviving. Its a free blast protection 4 enchantment. Protection is also a really good get out of jail free upgrading even leather armor like 2 tiers higher to chainmail or gold armor. For fall damage always toggle crouch. Best prevention is key. Including crouch jumping youll never fall. Of course watch out for falling gravity blocks like gravel and sand
How did I never notice that the enderman doesn’t move if you just stare at it!!! Actually blew my mind.
Big missing tip on the creepers is the dive-bombs. If you're in a cave keep an eye out for ledges, and the best thing to do around ledges is to _keep moving_ , at least until you get underneath something. If you want to mine an ore vein that puts you by a ledge, dig a single block out and stand in it for the reasons he mentions, and ideally put a block over your head. It's also helpful to get in the habit of using f5 (you can set it to whatever key) to look around things. 5:24 Also, while a viable option be mindful that you have to land _on top_ of the snow for it to work, whereas you can be anywhere inside water when you place it. This makes it roughly 30% more precise than water. 8:41 Fun fact; creepers will attack skeletons if skeletons shoot them. It's just very rare because the creeper always prioritizes the player, and for it to happen, the skeleton has to see you and a creeper has to be between you and the skeleton while not being able to see you. I've had this happen twice; a skeleton shoots at me, and as I'm leaving I hear an explosion lol 10:22 Another important missing tip is, if insta-mining, only go fast enough that you can react to if you were to dig out into the open. Keep your eyes open for a change in lighting as it's the clearest tell. 11:51 Also with normal full protection IV good foods will outpace the damage. Also regarding drowning, if you have a bucket (imagine not having a bucket...) you can just go against a block and hold right-click and you'll slowly regain air. The number one thing that helped me though was to do hardcore runs where I just tried to beat the game and no more. That put me in the deadly situations organically but without the commitment of a world, so I could learn how to not panic.
Been a OG Here! And you LITERALLY turned me from a NOOB to a PRO You are one of the best KZheaders❤
i haven't played minecraft for a longtime. that background music literally took me back to a couple of years back😥
Yesterday I created 3 hardcore worlds just to try out Java edition as I'm a veteran Bedrock edition player because of the crossplay feature. It wasn't a serious gameplay though, but in all 3 worlds I died to skeletons.
ocean treasure chests can have water breath potions and pain of arkopots... that enchant what helps deals more damage spiders can help with creepers too
Oh idk if anyone else does this but I always strip mine as far from the end of the tunnel as I can reach too maximize the amount of time I have to react to lava, caves, etc. Also most of my deaths from creepers are from them sneaking up on me so I always play with sound enabled. Seems weird not to but I dont have headphones or working speakers.
12:00 actually I have only leggings enchanted with fire prot cuz it gives you about 1 minute to get out of lava. Enchanting everything with fire protection is bad, because it don't reduce melee / ranged attack dmg
btw feather fall doesnt help against kenetic damage, u can swap ur chestpiece in 1.19.4+, so u can just swap last second with a chestplate and take no kenetic damage
