Most of us have probably had our fair share of experiences wandering around a desert and coming across these desert wells which are kind of cool to find but they’re not really helpful and they’re not good for much except for taking a bath and i guess because they’re not very deep either Desert wells have been in the game for a long time now and they only consist of three blocks sandstone sandstone slabs and water and in this video we’re going to be updating the desert well like i did in my previous video in the series where i updated the Dungeon to make it just a little bit better an interesting thing about desert rolls is that they actually generate even if you have structure generation turned off because the game doesn’t see it as a structure seizes that as a decorational feature which also means that you can’t Locate a desert well you can see a desert pyramid there’s no well you can’t locate it you have to find it naturally which is what i did here currently desert wells aren’t really useful there’s no reason to go out and find them unless you just want to say i found a Mildly rare structure that does absolutely nothing so we’re going to try to change that in today’s video we’re not going to give it like overpowered loot full nethered armor anything dumb like that but we are going to try to make some purpose to go and find them It’s called well but it’s only one block deep so it’s probably more like a bath and if you think about it there’s actually wells that are real wells and villages that are actually deep so the first thing we’re going to do to update this well Is increase the depth of it so it’s more realistic now that we have that we’re going to change a little bit of the structure of it i’m not going to change the actual shape of the blocks but i’m going to replace some of them like that’s going to be chiseled sandstone Maybe we’ll put smooth standstone here might change it later we’ll see so i’ve updated the structure now and it’s proper depth but we’re still missing one crucial aspect of oh well if you think about it so we’re gonna add a cauldron hanging off of a chain So that it looks like a bucket that could be uh dipped into the well and used to draw water and actually i think we might actually put water into the cauldron just like that so it looks like water is being drawn from the well if you think about it we already have lakes That generated in deserts there’s desert lakes slush ponds that you can find and there’s not really any vegetation around them except for sugar cane and the normal cactus but desert wells it’s already well there’s already water and if there’s water then there should be the ability for Stuff to grow near it so i’m going to be adding a little bit of vegetation around the sides to make it a mini oasis probably not going to have any trees but my habited grass course dirt so i’ve added the start of some vegetation around here some grass some Coarser and a little stream and we’ve seen mojang do stuff with water before like this in certain villages so i think that fits pretty nicely but now we’re just going to add a little bit of grass and other things around the outside so for a few finishing touches around The outside i’m going to add a couple barrels so we might place a little bit of loot and stuff in later on so it kind of looks like there was stuff at the well before there used to be people there but it got abandoned and we might actually add some debris to The bottom of the well so it looks like it’s not being up kept with some slabs and stairs just to kind of give it that abandoned feel because that’s often what mojeng goes for and now it kind of looks like there’s debris at the bottom it’s not all like Just up kept in everything because it’s kind of abandoned but here’s the special thing about the well so hear me out this might seem a little bit uh silly at first but we’re going to add a low stone underneath the well at the very bottom of it And we’re going to add a compass that’s locked onto that low stone that could spawn in a nearby desert village so if you found it you could find your way to the well and it’s not like the lodestone you could take the ingot of another right out of it So it’s not overpowered and if you think about it these wells are already very rare they generate in about one out of every thousand desert chunks so it’s already very uncommon to find them and having a low stone would just add that little extra bit of exploration and if you wanted you Could even just maybe they could add a new type of explorer map you know how they have like ocean monument explorer maps and the woodland mansion explorer maps so maybe they could do something like that for a while if they wanted instead of a lodestone and you may be asking yourself well That’s cool you get a lot stoned from it but why would you want to go there aside from that well you see these barrels we could put some basic supplies like kind of things you might find in villages you can like uh maybe emeralds you could put some emeralds In these not too many just like a couple they kind of give it its own unique loot tables you don’t really want to have something in every barrel you don’t need to depend on how many barrels like it would generate with but it would give you kind of a reason To find these and it would be a nice little oasis you could find in the desert be kind of rare and it still keeps the main theme of the desert well like i didn’t change the structure very much although i’m actually not a huge fan of that smooth stone i think it will Look much better like that actually we’re gonna revert that i i’ve been looking at that as i’ve been recording and i think that looks much better i think the final thing that will complete our desert well would be to have a wandering trader and the two trader llamas spawn with the well And that way when you find one of these you find like a trader and it’s kind of like you know the trader stopped at the well gonna give his uh islamists some water although he might just be completely heading out he’s not really not really sticking by His llamas but these guys would just stay around they won’t do spawn or anything so it’d be kind of a special find like these guys they don’t even generate in villages really they just spawn randomly but having them generate consistently with the structure especially like this adds a bit of lore And i think interest to finding these things even if wandering traders are not the most helpful in this guy he’s just completely heading out So I think that will conclude our video for today guys if you did enjoy then consider dropping a like and hitting that subscribe button we’re trying to get to 50 000 subscribers by june and i need your help and be sure to leave a comment down below what you’d like to see next For me to update in terms of structures that’s going to be all for me today guys thanks for watching evans peeve and i’ll see you in the next video more live stream bye you Video Information

What If Minecraft Had BETTER Desert Wells?
In this video I take one of Minecraft’s oldest structures, the Desert Well, and update/improve it how I think Mojang should. I do keep the updated Desert Well to something reasonable that we could see Mojang do something similar to if they update the Desert Well. ___________________________________
