3:02 notice how it gives you 12 nuggets which is more that an ingot. plus all you need is a crafting table to make an ingot but if youre smelting it you need fuel, another enchantment and a furnace
7:05 Save a COUPLE emeralds?! I got a 1 emerald Mending book from doing this
But you are the tutorial so does that mean to skip you??

Bro might be flak for the infinity bow, especially when fletcher villager and xp conservation is there
1:33 you can also craft 2 swords together to make a better one and continue until all of them are gone (this is quicker and easier)
The power of math 🧮
For the first one you can us lave buckets to they smelter 100 items
Don't use coal to smelt, use leaf flitters.
[1:58] didnt know that
With chests, you're going to be using 8 blocks to craft, but 14 to craft a barrel.
2:48 i dont use wood planks to smelt i use slab wood planks cuz its way cheaper
e
"If you're using wood logs you're doing it wrong turn it into planks"
TURN THEM into Slabs.
I LOVE using my OG wooden tools as smelter fuel. Sadly I love barrels a little less than fisherman 😢
So I was correct to make an infinite loop of shulker boxes filled with a lot of coal blocks
11:37 I just make both and alternate between them, free arrows from the skeletons
1 log = 1.5 fuel
1 log = 4 planks = 6 fuel
1 log/4 planks = 8 slab = 12 fuel.
11:30 i disagree, i have a looting sword and a mob grinder and i get all my arrows from
that so an infinity bow doesn't really help me. mending saves me from having to reenchant with Power V, Flame, and whatever else i have on my bow
i placed torches always on the left when im coming deeper, so if i want to go out i know i need to have them on right
Nice!!!!
who isnt using the wooden tools to smelt items?
Whooo put touches on the ground in a cave?????? Why would anyone do that?
how are barrels more efficient? you need 3 wooden planks to make half slabs, so that's something like 9 wooden planks for one barrel
a chest is only 8
Use mending not infinity on your bow. You are saving having to enchant a fresh bow not just string and sticks.
Plus you can just buy arrows with emeralds.
A friendly reminder that barrels are job blocks and can’t be near villager trading halls
I kept my first wooden Pickaxe and framed it.
I don't put mending on my bow to save on string. I out mending on my bow to save on the pain of eventually having to replace that bow and re enchant it when the anvil costs get too high, which considering it's a fully enchanted bow, is not too far away
Pit mining is better then tunnel mining in Minecraft, you can't end up getting lost. After you reach Bedrock then you can transform the Pit into something else.
i love #8 with torches
i always place mine on the walls in such a manner that they point to the way out
this is easy, as you go further into the complex, place the torches on a wall facing where you came from
this makes it far easier and faster to return to base, especially when you are deep into the mine
Yeah, I'm an old man making stairs on the crafting table, didn't even know what the stone cutter was for, lol
The new update has piles of Leaf Litter everywhere in some settings. These can be harvested very quickly, and fill up your inventory fast. They make great items for Composting for Bonemeal. Great for getting some farms started.
I don't like how barrels interact with villagers.
2:47 use wood slab bcz it's slemt like a plank
Here’s another torch tip: Big open Caves excepted, be sure to stick to one side when placing torches. This allows you to use them as breadcrumbs for getting back out even in confusing cave systems.
I always place mine on the right, so when I see that they’re on the left, I know I’m walking back the way I came.
14. Make me
a lot of these are just aesthetic things instead of efficiency things..
Don't enchant books ! Because if you enchant books, 30 exp gets reduced and enchant your tools in anvil : takes more exp. If you directly enchant your tools, it will only take 30 exp ! So, your choice ! Only 30 exp or more than 30 exp ?
#11 don’t think you were slick adding dantdm’s old house that brings back so many memories
2:00 Bro.. whattt! the!!?
Only noobs use torches to see in caves.
