Hello everyone I’m B Cal corn and this is episode 138 of Hardcore the original series it’s got a little bit of mining fatigue right now from all the uh the noise you hear uh over to the side there big old ocean Monument there we’ve been Uh going at it with the old uh well the actually the new Trident and the old sword uh getting some shards and crystals and uh building ourselves up a conduit brought the conduit along and a few other materials and got to start on that uh Gathering the materials as we go So we’re going to get back to it build that conduit up the full strength and then uh see if we can tackle the monument so let’s get to it first thing though we want to cover up this thing just in case uh the old Trident goes Astray uh so let’s see what do we have got a chunk of dirt we could just toss in here Um yeah we’ll start uh just popping stuff down down in there I guess uh let’s see I guess I could use some planks oh would those get burnt up by the lava though that’s the question maybe I should use Stone instead we’ll just fill in at this level Just get everything nice and filled over covered over okay I think uh yeah we still got little more over here okay I’m going to stand on the stone okay just wanted to make sure uh there wasn’t any like uh unstable sand around here I’m going to go ahead and fill it In there as well just to get things up to a a level where I can easily walk out okay I think I don’t want to get stuck in here either all right I think that’s about got it good enough for uh for our purposes anyway all right Okay H hello from a first time chatter hey how you doing welcome aboard and uh oh also uh got it as a follower as well thank you so much all right let’s I don’t have um yeah I don’t have any kind of chest or anything to put anything in but That’s all right we just need to collect uh you know stuff that thingies all right well let’s get to it there’s our conduit down there uh we’ve got uh few more things to add to it but it does give us the ability to go to these guys without too much trouble oh you’re Ducking under there aren’t you all right that’s fine let’s uh go ahead and grab the booty what do we got oh we got the more these am I missing hey guy that’s right we got a couple shards all right let’s see recharge these let’s put these up Here for now get them out of the way um oh yeah that’s going to happen all right although I guess I might as well just go ahead and Chuck that one on there won’t hurt don’t have place for those just yet and I’m going to keep those Within view just so I can get my count all right oops missed him hello come on over hold still there you go let me see what you give me ah one of each that’ll work for me uh but at least doing okay how about me I’m doing all right got a little bit Of a cough I’m wondering if I’m starting to get a cold hopefully it won’t be uh too annoying if it is I will edit all those kind of little coughs and sniffles and sneezes out and post a little cleaned up version to to YouTube tomorrow ah he moved come back to me all Right all right let’s go and build up a thingy at least does help you feel better sometime soon I hope so too some of is probably allergies I get those all right prismarine is what we want cuz we’ve got enough of the uh sea lanterns for now for our immediate Purposes right now we’re trying to build this guy up to increase its uh its range oh hello there oh yeah that’s right run away come on ah dodged come on course it didn’t come out until I was getting Zapped yeah coal and sicknesses that can that Can be a little bit scary after uh after Co um I can’t really that’s that’s just a glitch there um I can’t really say that I am fully fully vaccinated um try to get my booster uh just the other day but uh there was a apparently there’s some sort of computer glitch And insurance wasn’t quite having it so going to be trying that again later this weekend oh you know what I’m like running up there to make that block and I don’t really have to cuz that is a 2 by two recipe I can just make it right here in my Hand squeeze it together all righty so that’ll go there and I’ll pop one on there and we are part of the way come here you oh I missed how did I miss oh all right where’s my thingies there’s some there I do want these and this stuff as Well I do want the uh the crystals as well cuz the object of course the object of all this is to uh be able to accumulate lots and lots of sea lanterns for my base all right come on out you oh you’re going to hide that was bad come on I see you Ah I see you too where’d you go you’re hiding now oh you’re over there uhhuh can’t hide forever that’s it where’ I get the fish all righty so what I can make one more prismarine block slap that guy on there I don’t know if it’s going to make any kind of Sound effect when it uh Powers up when it first powered on it did oh come on so the object here is to build up the conduit to full power so it’ll give coverage throughout the entirety of the uh the monument then I can zip on in and not Have to worry about uh leing my breath while I’m going after the big guys oh looks like it’s night time now yep uh I’m going to go ahead I go ahead and sleep just so that you know more the guardian spawning and not uh anything up here on Land fact I should probably light up more of the land maybe light up this little island over here whoa that looks dangerous actually oh yep there you [Applause] go ah yeah very dangerous come on okay all right well least get it lit up oh of course got stuff going on down Here um pop one in there and there and there there down there as well Here There and Everywhere all right I’m kind of scared to put these on Sand now anyway point being I want to have stuff spawning down here namely the Guardians and not so much zombies and stuff at night okay Where my Guardians at there was a bunch of them last time around where are they all going to I just getting all fish now come on now that a little better oh come on come on guys ah there’s a a lot of them at least I can only hit one Yep ah there’s one come on there we go let’s see ah here we go all right out of the way fish okay something’s close enough to get me so let me get this stuff then try to figure out what’s behind me over here maybe it was over here on the side not sure Anyway make some more of these make sure we put in the right place cuz you know do have the old mining fatigue to deal with until we get the uh the elders cleared out once we get that we could just continuously hunt these guys and get more of the shards and Crystals and make lots and lots of sea lanterns that was spooky where are you they not not going necessarily going after me when you hear that what do I get just nothing a lot of nothing have I was hoping that holding uh The Sword in my off hand here would Uh would apply the Looting I’m not certain it is come here you there we go that was a decent shot I think and that didn’t get oh you right in your face get anything from yeah oh okay got out of range pop off the air just to just to be Certain what we got down below nothing at the moment anybody lurking down and underneath oh yeah oh why is it not hitting him the heck the heck was that about how did that work or not work let’s see see this on the corner boom all right next we work on the other Side so I can get that uh one deal in place okay he’s going after the squid where are you that’s better there we go I should just maybe get a little closer all right guys where are you he one went after that squid there there he is try after me now Too yeah ah of course some things over here let just get them out of the way I guess many of those are I have not too bad I don’t get filled up with junk let’s see what we got ah come on that’s better I don’t know why their beams aren’t rendering Though need to investigate that this is of course in uh version 117 the uh last version before before they change the terrain generation in uh 118 dang it so it’s a bit more classic Terrain oh you all right there’s another got to make sure I put in the right place all Right give me some out of here what happened to all those Guardians like all over on this side oh is that a is that a geode oh cool they all down here apparently ow fine let just collect this oh I’m out of range okay and then just back in range okay All right so yeah it’s not quite covering the whole thing yet but it will it will all right well I’m getting lots of uh crystals which will help uh of course always as well collect these up back in the dark come on where are you oh there you are oh come on Now that’s right oh yeah yeah get close to that thing why don’t you okay any other shards what I need is the shards and I ain’t talking Swiss look at you you spawn and immediately get hit right between the eye oh where are you where are you Uh-huh yeah ow where’ they hitting me [Applause] from ow where’s the stuff ah no no no no I don’t want that I don’t want that dolphin I want to stay around here dang it dang it eat dolphins I don’t want speed I want precision there’s a dude right in there all Right got enough for another one that’s going to get popped right there which means we can poer BL of sea lantern right there okay now continue to focus on making the prismarine dang it come on now all right collect out what we can here what else we got come on all Right that’s just XP not really critical we want is these guys oh where’d you go did I get you yeah right in there nice okay got a you know what I’m just going to clear this out the way that is going to be a pain in the butt I can tell all Right well that’s going to be a pain in the butt too hopefully won’t attract uh of course hopefully won’t attract Dolphins don’t know how I did not me notice that geod there before if I can get down into it just curious oh I see it’s uh whoa where am I so oh there’s a like a waterfall going into it that’s going to be interesting I want to go in there until I’m sure I can get out oh I see you stop that another one okay pop there just need one in the corner and then we go around the other Side there and we will have our dude all right ah come on better than that I see you trying to sneak in here come on come on get the thing all right d hey maybe we need to swap it back and forth in my hands a bit all right guys there we Go that’s what I needed okay right corner there and now we got 3 6 9 12 12 more to go and it will be complete we go after the big guys oh come on now come on this is where I need to go seems like we may have increased its range a bit Ah all right let’s get what we got here any others stop that H that guy had Thorns oh there you go uh that’s all seaweed I’ll wait for that to disappear okay get two of them out of it uh so let’s see one there and there hey fellas h on back to Me yep don’t care ah there we are and just crystals which I was excited to get before right now I have other priorities dang it oh you ah all right where’s my stuff what am I getting from this guy okay there we go little bit of fish all right come on Now come on down here guys ah who is getting me from where oh oh you’re going to hide down there huh come on out come on out where are you where are you I know you’re hiding where’d he go got be down in here all right well shoot so much for That a little stack okay oh come on N no not today ah come on ah oh there’s the big guy taking his tail right out that’s right trying to ATT me oh look at you okay well let’s uh switch that come here you all right you then oh where’s all the Where’s all the the shards like when I’m looking for the crystals I’m getting tons of shards now at the shards I’m getting tons of crystals and fish not that I don’t want fish I think it’s you know tasty but you know I have a task at hand by way Dude trying to get stuff done here ah oh come here you exactly what I want nice thanks wouldn’t mind getting something from you too there we go figured that would one hit him two throws with one hit okay come on now all right I’m keeping everything mended up at least All right my dudes are all going to be over here I guess a come on all right there’s my next four hello fishies okay going try with this one on the bottom just so I don’t forget it ah where are you going come on hold still hold still so I Can come on come come on come on there we are and another fish pistal right in the eye there you go still more crystals and fish you got fish popping out of you huh how is that how are y’all doing that come on now there you are Tell me some of y’all are falling down into the uh amst here the geode speaking of which though I do want to collect some amethyst uh shards cuz I want to make some some uh tinted glass I can do that in 117 I forget but assuming that I can I want To so I can make the uh the interior of my creeper Farm a bit more visible kind of line it with that oh hey guys shoot the heck why you hiding ah there you are all right I see you that’s right run away well you know What don’t run away yes r on over here there you go that’s what I’m looking for oh wait a minut deal with you what’d you drop nothing all right thanks see Y in there come on settle down just relax I’ll be over in a moment so many Crystals so 50 that should be enough for like 20 of the uh sea lanterns right I’m not going to break the ones that are here cuz you know I don’t want to spoil the beauty of the place I get my own let’s see there we go and six more to Go let’s go ahead and bust that out the way right now okay oh Dolphins you know what I don’t like the Dolphins they just make me speed up and it makes things difficult so dolphin stop there you go hey creature leave those squids alone want to say that [Applause] ah come on Ow oh there you are come on soon as this thing gets back in my hand you are toast there it’s annoying what all we got floting around here all right have to make one more let’s see we got that side let’s go ahead and get over here all right fellas oh come on Or fish okay well I think I got uh a couple more okay that’s fine I guess I just missed it all right this okay this is also threatening to get in the way what did I tell you about squid chucking it over in that direction that’s exactly why it covered Over the uh the lava pit over there accumulating a whole lot of crystals dang it not sure I’d get one of them come on yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah I’ll steal you ah got filthy animals is that uh no it’s a fish okay not essential oh all right might as well grab that Getting lots of fish out of them too okay three more and we will be up to full strength where are you nice nice nice there’s one of them okay just do a little quick survey here make sure I am correct about all that okay pop it up there let’s see any XP orbs Around all right everything all needed up okay uh how many more okay one more after this one more after this and it will be at full strength all righty there’s two ah you H in there didn’t you oh there three any hiding in here one over there by the corner where are You yeah got it all righty that should be enough get this thing fully powered there we are fully powered and at least now we ought to see these guys getting hurt when they come near it I don’t know if it has to be fully powered in order to do that but uh That’s what we got all right so it’s time to go in and we still got the mining fatigue but we’re going to go ahead and go in this way you know what if we’re going to do it let’s do it in the middle get rid of these guys at least where’d you Go good shot all right we’re going to pop in right here it’s going to take a bit but we can sustain ourselves yeah yeah yeah I hear you in there I hear you in there and yeah it’s two blocks maybe we should got some dynamite TNT whatever actually thinking that might Have been actually faster even with a mining fatigue uh that might have been actually faster than uh getting all the shards and stuff but I do want to get the shards and all that so that I can you know make some uh see lanterns oh this is so Thick we should do this two blocks wide I don’t know all right they’re hitting me okay stop that okay broke through Let’s uh heal up a bit maybe I should do too wide I see it that’s right that’s right is that range come on ah that was a waste all Right I’ll go ahead and do it too wide cuz why not fish occupy these guys I think they’re starting to be affected by the uh conduit oh boy takes a little bit but we’re getting it think I might go ahead and get those uh there two more on the bottom there Pass the one that I’m getting now if it’s in range just so that uh it to get him I see you dang it you made me start over yeah ah all right it’s enough of that go away all right I saw you all right all right let’s heal up come on heal Up all right let’s see if we can’t get this want to do this and get a uh bucket of water in there as well to make this all Source blocks oh of course there’s one more May should done it on the end oh you’re going to go after me aren’t You ah I was hoping that the thingy would have gotten them all right um I think if I there that might have it all with Source blocks now um yeah I just kind of burrowed in the wrong spot I think let’s try to get this one anyway close enough to it That maybe I can get it even if I get hit I just want to have like a clear you know portal through here hi there I see what trying to do but it won’t work okay got that going you take that okay all right time to regroup here recharge And uh there we go on in all right let’s see what we can do in here I believe our dudes are going to be up here where are you my dude all right there’s one got a Sponge bit of a wet sponge but you know other guy should be where’s the other end ah aim between them okay where are you or this way maybe all righty oh is that the geod cool we do have some going in the G oh there you are dang it come on Ah there we are oh yeah got to be careful around it though oh you so much xp around here so many shards so many crystals is that uh Y and there’s the other thingy bobber be careful I don’t want to swim into that I think I’ll just drop right In I’m not sure I’d be able to swing back out okay so now we need to get into the setter and I think uh maybe you need to go back this way for it I guess where the big gold block is fine you that way all Right yes is like up through one of these guys did I get to it oh that was my entrance yeah you’re up there somewhere aren’t you let’s see let’s get my bearings here going be right in there okay dang it which way to get this guy here Maybe no that’s my that was my way in dang I know there’s got to be a way where is the way up here’s back over over this way couldn’t be through there could it here where are you way up ah here we are maybe okay there you are Aha that should be all three of them oh man that was really low on health was not paying attention to that okay got those guys I got a lot of shards whole bunch of crystals Let’s uh heal up and make our way out not really that concerned about the Uh sponges and stuff like that you want to collect whatever crystals and shards I got coming my way all right and I’m going to hold this in hand for the moment all right at this point I just want collect junk and then find my way out woo man just go through the gauntlet Here holy cow look at them all that is a target-rich environment they just all been accumulating over here I think ah dang it come on now like how am I missing there’s so many got to wash my health oh you ah I should check my armor it seems like they shouldn’t be Hurting me this much where are you what have I got uh fire protection 3 why do I have fire protection three on my helmet four protection four protction four why do I have fire protection on my helmet maybe I need to redo my helmet think that’s why I’m been getting Hit a bit more than I was really expecting okay that’s going to do a little while I’m Onna oh come on ah moved moved stop moving my goodness let’s collect some stuff may have to dump some seaweed we even have a spot for seaweed What El do I have bu of these bu of these don’t really need those don’t need the puffer fish do want to get me some crystals though all right let’s see I see you uhhuh all right what all we got here let’s uh let’s head over to crafting Table and see what we can put together what time is it it’s in the morning should be fine night comes again though I want to sleep all right what we want is lots and lots of sea lanterns and we do have a spot for them that’ll Make eight all right that’s not bad not bad at all uh the fish we can Chuck don’t really need that want live ones not dead ones okay uh and the wet sponges we got yeah we got space for stuff I want to keep hold of the map just so that I Can make sure I know my way back uh again later uh also the rotten flesh we can get rid of uh the sand I’ll just kind of you know place a couple blocks there cuz why not all right it gets rid of that at least okay uh I’m going to do Oops make like a little Tower up here just to Mark where the thing is that’s fine okay I got the feather falling all right that clears up a little bit of inventory put a little marker where this guy is and boom down we go actually should have done it on top of the Thing that was actually kind of dumb where are you of course I miss come on thing all right let do some damage here to them not to me come on now okay that’s not really working like I wanted not really working like I wanted okay all right let’s get that saturation Up that’s right come to me that’s a bit more like whoa that come on hey come on guys ah come on come on come on come on come on all right him get stuff I can go there together ah come on come on back to me all right whoa ah puffer fish What you little that was not nice I saw that saw that too uhhuh come on I want that uhhuh that’s right come on close to the thing ah how did I miss you than good goodness all right ah come on ah come on how’ I miss back ah where are You oh come on there that’s more like it come on more stuff I see you down there that’s right where’d you go went under didn’t you you went under here didn’t you come on oh I see y’all thinking you can hide huh I’ll take all this ah come back to me thank you Right you saw one come on come on come on come on all right take that come on dang it think it’s just too slow to come back to me all right gather the spoils here oh it’s night time yeah and I wanted to sleep just to make sure I Am not getting any Phantoms coming at me make sure I’m all healed up in case any do all right we’re going to pop around the corner right up onto the shore and sleep immediately okay let’s go ahead make some more of these seven more of those nice Uh that’s right you need five of the crystals for that and I got so much raw fish here probably make uh a thing to cook some but uh not just right now all right we just got a few more minutes to go on this session and we Are accumulating more of the uh sea lnns now where you think you’re going all right you ganging up on me huh I see how it is I think next session may have to work on uh rebuilding this helmet cuz uh fire protection really isn’t what I want for it Not exactly sure how I ended up with that the fire protection should be for a gold helmet to go into The Nether not for my uh General walking around helmet we got five crystals so we got enough for one more ah oh on now course nothing are You man they just dropped so much fish so much fish from these guys but yeah I think I’ve had the proper helmet I could probably hold my own a bit better with these guys wouldn’t have to stop to eat so much ah and I could collect a lot more it’s just all fish Ah got away huh I’ll take these yeah see now I’m not getting as many of the crystals how does that work how exactly does that work all right him what do I get more shards okay I’m going to run down here real quick cuz I want to See what I can get out of this geode just real quick like let’s see so should be able and I’m going to have some uh yeah just drop right down to the surface of it we’ll put some torches in here okay so did I get a oh let get you coming in here All right well okay they might be kind of following me in here let’s see I need these look fully mostly fully grown so I should be able to get some stuff out it I’m going to get the uh use the fortune ones on it okay get the uh fully grown ones all Right get me uh a number of crystals out of this I where where they go oh over there wow got a bunch of them already what does that get me up to a whole stack and and then some uh that’s almost a stack and a half are these uh fully grown this one Looks like it okay 28 32 44 think that looks grown 56 yeah this is pretty good all right I’m going to use this guy and I’m going To bust around there in order to let that one grow more stuff over here as well oh You huh all right Also there and there just basically to maximize growth potential of these guys that was interesting you don’t hear him too to often on land all right so we have officially gone over time here so uh that’s going to be it for now for now uh I was not expecting to end this one in the Geo especially with a crystal growing right behind me uh we’ve got lots of crystals from it uh so we will see what more we can get out of it we got a fair number of shards and uh and The prismarine crystals as well um that’s really the main thing is making the uh what you call it the um sea lanterns that was our primary goal uh but we’ve also got uh this lovely geode and we’re going to get a bunch of these amethyst crystals out of it make us some Tinted glass so that we can see the inside of the creeper Farm a bit better I’d like to make sort of an observation uh area around it so we can watch things go although when you’re that close to it probably not going to be producing but it’d be interesting all the same anyway See you next time bye Video Information

HardCorn! – Episode 138 – My first Minecraft survival world at Hard difficulty!
I started playing Minecraft in the summer of 2020, and had been playing in the same survival world the whole time. So I decided it was time to start a new world – this time in Hard difficulty!
I’ll be streaming every session in this world, so stay tuned!
Here’s the seed if you want to play along or explore the surroundings for potential spoilers: -3233629930396765467
What did I work on this time? I continued to battle the guardians outside the ocean monument, staying close to my conduit to keep breathing, gradually collecting enough prismarine shards to complete its construction and bring it up to full range and power. Then I slowly mined my way into the monument and hunted down the three elder guardians. After that I laid into the guardians, collecting as many prismarine shards and crystals as I could in order to make sea lanterns. Along the way I noticed that a geode was located at the base of a rock face to one side of the monument, and in fact intersected it on one side. I went in and collected many amethyst shards so that I can also make lots of tinted glass for windows into the creeper farm. I also found that at some point I enchanted my helmet with fire protection instead of protection, so I’ve been taking more damage from the guardians than I would have otherwise.
For the future… I want to continue to collect more shards and crystals now that I can do so without all the jump scares and mining fatigue, but I think I need to re-enchant my helmet. I plan to continue dressing the Spire Atrium. I want to add stairs up around the upper Spire to the park I plan to have up top, and get that lit up. I want to include some glowstone, or perhaps sea lanterns, in the glass and quartz dome at the top of the North Atrium. Once the Spire Atrium is also established, I need get the second floor set up with at least some sleeping quarters. Then I can expand the facilities and let them expand with them. And of course I want to keep watching out for patrols. I want to finish mapping the western ocean. I want to go back to the Nether for more netherite, along with other goodies, and I’m thinking I may need to do more bed mining. Next time I’ll just stock up on a stack each of wool and planks and make them as I go. I believe I need to update my notes on what enchantments are available from which villager, as well as thinking about nametagging them. I may also go for some more decorative lighting around the grounds using glowstone, but probably just a bit at a time as I figure out what exactly I want to do. And I’ll likely continue to expand the pumpkin and melon fields. Then it’s time to expand my farmer population. I also want to get some ender pearls for making more ender chests and make my way to the End. I’ll need more blaze rods for that as well. And it seems prudent to get some more diamonds for a backup set of armor and tools. Lots of options for upcoming episodes!
Long term… I am thinking of making the area outside the North Atrium Dome a nature park, with a bit of lighting added for safety. It will be tempting to build an ocean-side base once I’m ready to improve the safety of the village there to the west. I don’t want to lose a good source of my own villagers to creepers and such. It will be tempting to build something on the far side of the spire since it’s so close to the ocean. And of course I want to go and explore the End to get elytra to make good use of the platforms on the Spire.
* Playing Minecraft Java Edition 1.17.1 (world seeded in 1.16.5) with Sodium, Iris, and Sildurs Shaders Enhanced Basic, along with a few other cosmetic and performance mods. (The main things I like about this combo are the shadows, connected glass textures so there’s no grid, pretty water, and light from held sources.) Otherwise this is totally unmodded “vanilla” Minecraft. (Prior to Episode 53 I was using Optifine.)
