We’re getting amethyst in minecraft but unfortunately there aren’t many ways to actually use it despite it being a farmable resource so i decided to change that by adding more content and updates surrounding the wonderful world of amethyst let me show you how i did it eighty percent of the people watching This video are not currently subscribed and that means that you could very well be one of them so if you enjoyed today’s video please consider subscribing it would really help my channel out all right back to the video all right my friends you know what time It is it’s time to find some amethyst and i’m actually really surprised because as you can see here there is a geode right at spawn and a village wow look at the description for the seed because this is actually kind of cool geronimo oh there we go oh enderman As you can see we have found ourselves an amethyst geode and that means of course that we can collect all of the shiny new resources that come along with a geode including but not limited to tough amethyst clusters blocks of amethyst amit the shards and of course calcite you can get a lot Of resources whenever you find these seemingly rare geodes scattered around your minecraft world and of course once you’ve done that you can craft well not really a lot you can make a spyglass which as we’ve established is always great and then of course tinted glass which is only available in one color Uh and very useful if you’re building a mob spawner as you know by now we are going to be covering different ways that the amethyst should be updated but there’s actually one main reason why i decided to make this update in the first place and that of course Is because amethyst is a farmable resource as you can see we’ve got a budding amethyst block which is not obtainable but you can leave it in place to eventually grow amethyst clusters so with a farmable resource that has really only two uses what else could we use it for First and foremost i definitely think minecraft needs more handy gadgets like the totem of undying for example so this first idea actually comes in the form of a new gadget that you actually have to hold in your offhand or main hand it basically needs to be held In order to actually be activated this is an amethyst charm and let me show you exactly what this does so let’s say that you are in the middle of battle you found yourself in a cave with well not much protection and there is a very mean skeleton attacking you and let’s face it Dealing a lot of damage the way the amethyst shard actually would work or the amethyst charm rather is it would actually give you a 25 chance of producing a heart when taking damage and that’s a lot of damage look at all those arrows clearly we have trouble handling Ourselves i mean there are a lot of arrows in my player but as you can see here we can actually take the smithing table take a shield and of course the amethyst charm and upgrade the shield to create a charmed shield now this is something i think we need in minecraft that being More upgrades in general more uses for the smithing table and honestly more upgrades for a lot of different mechanics in minecraft and as you can see here we now have a charmed shield which as you guessed it would essentially combine the benefits of the amethyst charm With a shield and i mean i’ve got to say i feel like i am looking pretty snazzy oh geez this is gonna be harder than i thought oh no okay nope nope help somebody it’s over zombie i’ve got the high ground so as you can see here i’ve taken a little bit Of damage but if we actually hold our amethyst charm shield we do have a chance of actually absorbing it and turning it into health but is this a little overpowered i think it actually might be as i said earlier in the video amethyst is known to have protective properties And healing properties so i think it would be really cool if we kind of incorporate that into the mystical side of minecraft as you can see we could take amethyst shards with lanterns to create amethyst lanterns but this actually does something a little different than your typical light source This bat is gonna get on my nerves i wish bats actually did something oh my goodness i have not actually tested this so this is gonna be really interesting but as you can see we’ve got zombies all around we’ve probably even got creepers nearby maybe not oh there’s one And as you can see we are being surrounded well not anymore because they are all absolutely terrified of the mystical properties of the amethyst lantern i absolutely love this idea because how many times have you been in your house and you opened the door and a hidden creeper Just destroyed your base sheep how many times has that happened to you i know just so many times he’s so sad this would essentially keep that from happening but it would be very expensive because obviously it takes 4 am at the shards each time you want to craft it this is something Not just should be in minecraft i need this in minecraft how’s it going creeper run away oh well before we continue with my ideas i actually asked my community and picked a couple of my favorites of their ideas buddy poppy suggested placing amethyst under a noteblock Lets you play an awesome sound i think this is a great idea i mean amethyst already sounds like a wind chime when you walk on it so it just makes sense that it would sound like a wind chime under a note block not a piano what were they thinking e Suggested making the scope attachable to the crossbow so that you can make a type of aim scope i assume you mean the spyglass by the way great name i like that idea and i think everyone else does i’ve seen this comment pop up so many times in my comment section and For good reason it makes sense that we would be able to combine the crossbow and the spyglass so i plan on doing that for a video coming up very very soon let me know what other features you would like to add for minecraft 1.17 cheesy melon suggested personally i Would really like to see amethyst arrows with the same effect that the staff had that you showed off in your previous videos in case you’re confused i did a video recently about adding an amethyst golem to minecraft and there i actually had a magic staff that did essentially what they’re suggesting That’s a great idea and i love the fact that we can mix these two videos together if you haven’t seen it already i really recommend you check it out minecraft can be very spooky there are a lot of mobs in this game and they could be lurking Around in areas that you don’t even know about so while you have the amethyst charm we’ve added another item that could also be useful for keeping you protected and that is an upgrade to the compass known as the amethyst compass which as a side note i think it Would be great to add more compass upgrades that do different things let me know what you think of that down in the comments below this compass will actually point you to the nearest mob that being passive or aggressive that way you’re actually aware of what exactly is around you In this case i’m trying to find what mob it’s pointing to but i have a feeling it is underground but as you can see now it’s locked on to the nearest squid and now for one of the more interesting ideas in this video we are stranded on an island but that’s okay It’s perfect for this particular example it involves the smithing table and also involves enchanted books and an amethyst charm now in the thumbnail of this video you probably noticed the amethyst armor that i had created that was the original idea but unfortunately it didn’t seem like the best fit For the game instead we had an interesting concept that is basically charming tools in armor through enchanted books so just as an example of how this could work you could take either an amethyst charm which i showcased earlier in the video or an amethyst shard and essentially Charm the book to then raise the point by one now i know this is entirely possible currently by combining two similar books however this gives some sort of currency to the amethyst which as i’ve said countless times is a farmable resource but it could actually be much more valuable than just that Consider that you have maybe a fortune 3 book you could then take the amethyst charm charm the book only once to create a fortune 4 going one level beyond the current limit of that particular enchantment now this would obviously have a lot of ramifications for the entire enchantment system So maybe that’s a video for another day but i definitely think charming tools armor and weapons would be a little bit more valuable to minecraft than simply just adding a brand new armor set or tool set to the game in the form of amethyst after all amethyst is very similar to Quartz in fact it is a quartz so we don’t have quartz armor why would we have amethyst armor and of course before we continue there is actually one more idea that we didn’t have time to adapt on so i challenge you in the comments to let me know how you think This could work if amethyst is a type of quartz perhaps it could be used to craft a redstone block similar to how observers and comparators are made with quartz that could be very interesting and like i said i didn’t have time to think on that on my own But maybe you can let me know what you think of that down in the comments below well would you look at that you made it to the end of yet again another video and because of that you are my favorite if you enjoyed the video

Minecraft, but I gave Amethyst Ore an Update for Minecraft. Last week, I gave Copper Ore an Update for Minecraft, so I thought it would be a great opportunity to do the same for amethyst, especially after I already added an amethyst golem into the mix! You should also check out my video about 50 things that should be in Minecraft!
