20+ Survival Tips EVERYONE Needs To Know

If you’ve started a new world have a world that you haven’t been playing for a long time or just enjoy doing things in Minecraft manually you’re going to need to know these 20 plus tips that I have for you here today first things first is once you’ve gotten your couple

Of basic tools from some wood you might want to start finding some food really at this point anything that you can eat is good so sheep chickens pigs cows Bish we’re even knocking up grass so you can get seeds that you can then grow into wheat to make bread now just make

Sure for your meats you go ahead and get yourself some Cobblestone to make a furnace because cooking that food will make it give you a lot more saturation for your hunger bar delicious next thing is to make sure you get enough Wool by killing or shearing sheep so you can

Make a bed sometimes though those sheep might not always match so if you find sheep that don’t match remember then you can just pick a few flowers and on Bedrock Edition anyways you can actually re-dye wool to be whatever color you need so now we have three red pieces of

Wool we have three planks and we can craft ourselves a bed so once you have yourself a few things to smelt there’s a few ways to do that but one tip a lot of people don’t know about is it’s actually most efficient if you’re going to use

Wood as your fuel source to not just craft it into planks but craft those planks in the slabs these slabs will last you the longest out of any way that you can do wood in terms of smelting down iron food and other objects that you get but to get yourself going and

Getting that iron and coal and things of that nature to make torches and make new weapons and such you’re going to need a good place to go to do that and while places like this can be a little dangerous they’re also typically going to be the best places to find things

Maybe we’ll skip that area because that looks a little scary and instead what we’ll do is we’ll go into this little cave right here we can find ourselves lots of iron coal deposits and such that are going to give us what we need to get started in an early game you can see

Here I found some coal veins usually you’ll find coal and iron in groups when you find it so make sure when you do to get it all up and usually big open caves like this are going to be great to do that in because as you can see we can

Kind of see far and ride here we can see coal in a lot of different places iron in different places and overall this is going to be the best way for us to get those early game resources now once you’ve found yourself enough iron to get yourself some iron tools and gear go

Ahead and either dig or make a staircase down all the way to Y level negative 54 cause you’re going to want to find some diamonds and I suggest if you want to make it easy for yourself to just drop straight down go ahead and make a little

Three block like River thing right here in front of your ladder that way you can just fall straight down into the water you won’t take any damage and um you can just get down a lot quicker now once at wide level negative 54 you’re going to

Want to just go ahead and dig in a straight line eventually you’ll run into some diamonds just like this and you can start to make diamond equipment if you’re looking for the best way to find diamonds I do have a video out on this recently so you can optimize doing this

As fast as possible another great tip I have is to play out a multiplayer server which you can do with our sponsor sparked host if you want the best way to play Minecraft with your friends or family then a Minecraft server from spark toast is your answer a Minecraft

Of the screen and they will help you make sure that if you go out exploring you know how to get back home to your stuff now if dark areas like this normally scare you to the point where it keeps you from exploring around don’t be ashamed to go into your settings and

This will require you to turn cheats on meaning you won’t be able to earn achievements on your world anymore but but if you activate cheats you can turn on keep inventory at this point you can go through explore caves and fight mobs and do whatever you want and your only

Penalty is that you get sent back to the last bed that you slept in so if that’s the thing that helps you explore around in your world don’t be ashamed just flip that little toggle switch and keep your inventory another thing you’re going to want to do which I’ve done here on my

Guide world is make yourself an organized storage room it doesn’t have to be super big and fancy like this but even if you just have an area where you have a few chests you have an item frame or a sign on it where you’ve labeled what’s in there or what group of items

Are in there it will make finding what you need a whole lot easier to do and also if you’re looking to move around your world quicker once you’ve found yourself a saddle saddle up a horse and you’ll be able to travel around your world much faster than by moving around

On foot next I have some tips for you for growing crops go ahead and put yourself a bucket of water down because the bucket of water is going to hydrate the crops for you and a bucket of water reach out one two three four but if you

Go out another one two two three and four you could put another bucket of water on the other side right here because they will both reach out and four blocks in each Direction giving you a nice large area for crops to go to make all things crops easier take a half

Slab or a slab and put it in the top of the water remember not a full block but a slab the water is still there but now you cannot fall into it this is also a good place to put torches for light because you do need to have light around

Your farm just to make sure that the crops don’t pop up and are properly growing next if you’re planting a single crop your crops will grow faster if you separate them by a row because whenever you have crops right beside each other in a diagonal whenever they are

Diagonally across from another crop of the same type they will grow slower so if growing a single crop make sure to grow them in rows with a space between this does not count for crops that are different though so we have carrots beside potatoes they can go right beside

Each other just like this it does not slow down the growth they will all grow at that maximum speed which is about three times faster next is melons and pumpkins and to figure those out what you want to do is you want to diagonally hoe the ground around your water spaced

Out the same as we did the water over there go diagonal four blocks now what you’re going to want to do is every other block go through and till up the ground until you get four blocks past this what looks like we’re one two three

And that’ll be our fourth spot we do not want to go any further now what you’re going to want to do is fill in the gaps you’re going to want all the tilled cropland to be whoops diagonal like this you’re going to end up with the checkerboard pattern that looks

Something like this this is going to be for your melons and pumpkins and all you’re going to want to do is go down in a straight line plant pumpkins down one row and melons down the other and Alternate back and forth doing this allows for the faster crop growth rate

And fits the most melons and pumpkins in the smallest area possible it may look a little confusing at first but harvesting this is actually easy and they grow incredibly fast after they have finished growing the easiest way to harvest is actually just by going diagonal as you

Can see if you cut diagonally across you won’t have to worry about knocking up any of the stems it just makes it incredibly easier to do while also getting that maximum speed of your crops growing next I have for you a hack for growing sugar cane which you’re going to

Need a lot of in your world especially if you’re going to be trading with villagers and making fireworks and that sort of things so most you already know sugarcane can only be planted right beside water but there is a perfect pattern to doing this to fit the most

Amount of sugar cane and the smallest amount of space possible what you’re going to want to do is Count four blocks and on that fifth block right here Place water and then do this down a row however long you want to we’ll do maybe like four water sources now what we’re

Going to do is we’re gonna count over one up two and put water right here and then the same distance going down one two three four and on that fifth put in water one two three four on that fifth put in water come over and do that again over one up two

One two three four five one two three four five and now we do need to like fill in these slots down here and we can continue this over as long as we feel like we want to now like we’ve done elsewhere make sure you go in and fill in the top with a

Half slab and then what you’re going to find is for all of the rows that go along the middle you will be able to put a sugar cane in every single spot that’s not where the water is and of course you’re gonna have some spots down the

Edges that aren’t going to be able to have sugar cane because you don’t have the blocks and all the spots but what this is going to give you is going to give you the most dense sugar cane feel that you can possibly make now all you

Got to do is sit back and wait for that to grow and now going through it harvesting is easy and you get a lot of sugar cane for only this little bit of space that you’ve used just this little space right here got us more than three

Stacks of sugar cane a brand new Pro tip for you as of 1.20 is if you need a lot of wood for things like making chests and Hoppers and just other miscellaneous things that you spend wood on but you don’t care what the wood looks like bamboo is now your best answer because

Bamboo actually grow goes incredibly fast what you could do is plant yourself a small field of it something like this right here and as you’re going about doing things around your base building mining farming whatever you’re gonna find that in very little time your bamboo field has grown up to something

Like this now what you can do is go through and chop it all down with a sword right above ground level that way it’s able to regrow and in no time we got ourselves about 16 stacks of bamboo which I can now go to the crafting table

Here I can craft this into a whole bunch of blocks of bamboo which if I wanted to I can go through and convert down into something like chest for a storage room or something in that short amount of time we’ve gotten ourselves 25 chests and that’s going to collect together a

Whole lot faster than chopping down trees will next you’re going to want to find yourself a village and first thing I recommend that you do is go through and just get rid of all the profession blocks that you don’t want or need because right now we’re going to focus

On actually getting a librarian and first of like successfully get one we’re probably gonna have to make sure that there’s no other Perfection blocks here inside of the village once you’ve gotten rid of them take yourself a lectern and go ahead and place it down it could be

Inside a house it could be outside a house either way is fine and you’ll probably find a villager will link up to it like this guy right here now I want to trap him in because I would like to have like full control of this dude and

Access to this dude so I’m just gonna pretty simply go through here and put this over his head and he is now trapped he can’t go anywhere if I really want to make sure I keep him safe I could take a trap to her put it right here and now

Nothing can get into him also if I break this he cannot get out any longer and what I’m going to want to do is I’m going to want to keep resetting his trades until I find Fortune 3. so just keep breaking and placing the block down

Or if you want to shortcut it what you could do is you could take a sticky piston put it right there and you could do this right here and it will also allow you to easily reset its trade and we’re going to keep doing this until we get fortune 3 on this villager

At which point we’re going to use some emeralds to purchase you can trade paper with the librarian to get the emeralds that you need or you could trade with other villagers to get the emeralds that you need but ultimately you’re gonna get fortune 3 because you’re gonna need that

For this next hack and now that you have fortune 3 you’ll probably want to put it on your pickaxe because fortune 3 is going to take this one Diamond that you would get from here I totally forgot to do it let’s just let’s just ditch this somewhere pretend

It didn’t happen now once you have fortune 3 go ahead place down an anvil you’re going to want to put that on your pickaxe first you can get more of them it’s definitely worth it but good fortune 3 on your pickaxe because now when you go down and find diamonds

Instead of getting one Diamond per Diamond you’re gonna get on average about two and a half to three diamonds every single time that you go through and go on a mining trip so those eight or right there turn into 14 diamonds which is just under two diamonds per or

Which is very nice to get that extra boost also this works on crops so this is a row of 18 planted potato plants and as you can see that gave me almost two stacks of potatoes Fortune works on a lot of different things but these are

Two of the biggest things that you can use Fortune oil and it does work on most oars it does work on these crops but not the other ones over there and it is definitely a hundred percent worth using all the time another Pro tip is always carry a water bucket

Could be super helpful for situations like this where you need to get down to an area that’s otherwise pretty hard to get down all you got to do is put down your water bucket there let that water flow for a moment and you can go ahead

And you can take it on down and then when you’re done going through and collecting the iron and the copper and whatever else you needed to come down here for you could very easily take that water elevator back up once you get back up to the top pick up your water bucket

And you’re good to go remember getting all those potatoes earlier that you can now very easily get a whole lot of well it’s time to actually turn this into a good permanent food source go ahead and use that to get a couple of pigs you can

Do the same with wheat and cows but pigs are honestly going to be the best easiest way to do this so don’t let the Sheep bully the pigs either get get out of here make yourself a little fenced-in area and now your pigs are trapped now you can go the traditional route of

Putting down a gate in there that you can open and close but the easy way to get in and out is to put down a carpet now you can go through you can breed up your pigs and make a big pig farm right here you will have yourself a very easy

To get good sustainable food source in your world now if you want to make cooking all that food or smelting items a little bit quicker and easier what you’re going to want to do is make yourself an automatic furnace put a furnace about one block High put a chest

Out in front of it and a hopper into the back now put a hopper into the side put a chest on top of that put a hopper on top facing down into the furnace and put a chest on top of that now you can put all that coal that you’ve gotten and all

Those pork chops that you’ve gotten to good use they will go through and automatically smelt and automatically pop down into here but you can easily do better than that bunch of furnaces put maybe eight side by side weigh yourself a double chest somewhere right here in the middle run a

Couple Hoppers into that and run the other Hoppers into those base a bunch of Hoppers into the back of those furnaces place a bunch more Hoppers into the tops of the furnaces on the top row here go ahead and go out two blocks on one side

And go up one and one block on the other side and go up one put a powered rail a regular Rail and then powered rails all the way down power this side and actually take this one right here make it a half slab instead and put the power

Down back on there just like that do the same thing on the back side too go over two go up one go over one and go up one rails can sometimes be kind of funky so if you need to go ahead and extend out your rail on one side that way when you

Place down this side they actually connect over properly and now that you have that set up the same way go ahead and put yourself a chest Minecart here and a chest Minecart there put yourself a lever here and a lever Here and Now whatever it is you want to

Smelt a lot of go ahead and select this top chest right here put all of that item in there select the bottom one right here put all of your fuel into that turn that guy on first turn this guy on second make sure you have power

Going along the back side just like we do right here and all of a sudden in just seconds we’ve got ourselves a pretty massive super smelter here that is very easy to make in the early game so you can smell things down really quickly and lastly here if you need a

Little bit of extra fuel for your furnace system once you’ve found some drip Stone go ahead and build a few blocks up in the air like so and for every piece of drip stone that you have go ahead and put one underneath the block box this area in with whatever

Blocks you have available and put some lava above it like so and then put some cauldrons down below that these will fill up with lava over time which will smelt 100 items per bucket of lava and you can keep expanding this as you get more drip stone blocks just go ahead and

Add more in easy to do just go through expand it out like so and put down those additional lava buckets they do take a little while but they run all the time so every so often go through with some buckets pick up the lava and then dump

It into your furnaces here and even Into The Hoppers in the back to create a little bit of a backlog and in no time you’ll have yourself infinite fuel if you enjoyed these early game tips and trips to start your perfect world please leave a like make sure you subscribe to
