Hey everybody proud here and welcome to the bedrock guy again can’t thank you guys enough for the major support don’t forget put in the comments what things you want me to get in the resource roulette from blue jay you don’t need to put an amount we we already have that part decided It’s double whatever amount we usually have in and make sure it’s something that blue jay would have access to i don’t want to send them for something deep in another or the end make sure he can get to it and um hopefully something that i want to But make sure you put those comments in also if you have any tips that fit this episode drop them in the comments section the best one i’ll read it off in the next episode also don’t forget the blue jay and i are doing our opening streams on the server on twitch Sunday november 1st bluejay will go live at 8pm eastern and i will go live at 10 pm eastern time come hang out we can talk about some tips live chat answer questions and have a lot of fun you don’t have to have a twitch account to watch you do have to have one To be able to type to us interact though so i would love nothing more to see a whole bunch of you guys there um it’s our first stream weekend so first streams on the server so it’s going to be a really big important one a big milestone Hope to see you guys there so today’s episode is going to be all about strip mining uh basically what we’re going to be doing is digging down close to the bottom of the world making a little mine shaft and this is the way that you guys can get tons and tons and tons Of diamonds in your in your world so we’re gonna have to choose location to dig down i don’t know where that is yet we’ll find out in a moment um in terms of the things that you bring with you and why to bring those things with you It’s pretty much the same as the caving video in episode three so i would just check that out i’m not going to go over those things again but i am going to go the extra mile and build a little bit of a mine like shaft or like base area down there so I got some like extra supplies right here on me to bring with me to do all that let me find i guess a location for us to do this and also we’re gonna make a bunch of ladders we can do that now all you got to do Is just get a bunch of sticks on you i have a lot of spruce wood right now so i’m just going to make a few more of these guys craft those into sticks and then craft those into ladders just like that and we’re going gonna need more than That we’ll probably need at least like maybe close to 60 ladders and then also we’re going to bring a second bucket with us so i recommend you bring two buckets as well and once you have those two buckets go ahead and fill both of them up with water Taking a look around i think what we’re going to do i think we’re going to put it right there in those woods right there i think would be a good idea so we’re going to go down there we’re going to dig straight down and i just want to show you while we Were up here it’s important what direction we’d make our mine shaft in we go this way i think we’re more likely to run into blue jay if we go this way that’s not too big of a deal but the problem is this is ocean right here we don’t want to dig Anything that goes in that direction because then we’re likely going to get water filled caves so that’s the ideal direction that we’re going to go in so we’re gonna dig a hole down there and we’re gonna go that way and i have my first pro tip Of the episode for you guys you’re gonna love this one dig straight down yes digging straight down is the best way to get all the way to the bottom of the world in minecraft but don’t do it in a one by one hole like this because you’re gonna die if you do that Like blue jay probably did instead what we’re gonna do is we’re gonna do two blocks a two by one hole and we’re going to stand in the middle that way if we dig these blocks out and mine them down you can see we do not fall i can do the Same thing on this side just like this and i do not fall either so we’re going to do this we’re going to go all the way down to y level 11. remember those coordinates on the top left hand corner the middle set is your y level That’s how high your height in the world we want to go down to y 11. i’ll explain why in a moment and once you get all the way down to y level 11. this is the side we’re going to put our letter ladder on because that leads back To our base it means we can just go up and straight out and this is the side that we’re going to come down so what we’re going to do is we’re not going to build anything you know super big yet we’re going to leave these two blocks right here just like This and actually i’m just going to knock those guys out and we are going to make an infinite water source right here because who knows we might need to get water here for some reason because maybe we forget to bring some for our caving trip or something So we’re going to do that we’ll do that and now that is an infinite water source what happens when you put two water sources with a gap in between them it makes the water source infinite meaning you can draw water from it and it refills itself back up it is an Absolutely awesome thing to have so we’re going to go ahead and do that and now we’re just going to go ahead and carve ourselves just a tiny bit of space here not too much quite yet i would like to get down a crafting table and then let’s get our ladders and we’re Just going to take ourselves right the way up just like this um we can put one right there too because it gets waterlogged and yep just work your way all the way up to the top and once you have that set up the reason why we got the water down there geronimo You can jump down and you will not die no matter the height now it’s my turn to go through and do a little magic in here so i’m going to get this room all set up and ready to go still working on getting the room set up but i Wanted to pop in to show you guys a trick that most you people that play bedrock probably already know but just in case you don’t you can actually hide lighting under the floor in the bedrock edition and this is a huge advantage we have over java because of java it is Much harder to hide lighting so we have slabs here and as you can kind of see i got little holes all the way through and all those holes have torches in it just like this one and as you go through and cover them up the lighting still comes through so now I can put lights in here decoratively however i want to to make the room look the way that i want but still be well lit enough to where no monsters will spawn in the room huge huge bonus for bedrock write it down people write it down and here we are a nice simple But good looking little mining room uh we got our blast furnaces here we got a couple regular furnaces for to maybe smelt up some stone uh we put a bunch of barrels over here as our like junk storage as we go through and if i need more i can add More in but this should be okay for now to hold like cobblestone and that sort of thing and then up here is where our valuables will go where we can separate you know maybe iron from redstone from coal to you know the other things we’ll split it up some way i don’t know How yet um this is a chest like dump off like any extra inventory items that you may have we got a bed down here crafting table little details in the floor overall the place is looking really really really good and we have our mine shaft area through here uh let’s jump into Some key tips that you guys need to know as you get started on your first trip branch mining and trying to find lots and lots of diamonds so why level 11 why oh why did we pick why level 11 well it is the best place to search for diamonds They are most commonly found they being diamonds between y level 5 and y level 12 but your underground lava lakes start to appear at y level 10 which would be the block that we’re actually standing on so as we’re going through in mining we won’t have any lava flow down on us we Will occasionally like uncover lava down below which is what our water bucket here which i need to fill up will take care of for us absolutely no problem at all but if we were to go lower mind lower then lava would flow in on us a lot while we Are mining it’s going to slow us down it’s going to make it less efficient if we were to go higher say like y level 12 then the like i guess block in front of us which would be y level this is y 12 this would be y 13. Less diamonds here and then the ones we uncover in the ceiling y14 way less diamonds so why level 11 is by far the best place to mine now when you go branch mining there’s a couple of ways that we’re going to touch on doing it so those ways typically involve making a Two by one straight line down the like through the caves so basically we’ll just we’ll pick a direction and we’ll just go go go in a straight line all the way through collecting all the resources along the way it allows you to break the least amount of blocks while exposing the most Amount of blocks around you giving you lots of goodies as you go down and then after you go down one a long enough ways you can stop and go to the next branch and go to the next branch and so on and so on Uh for as long as you like now they are spaced out by three blocks one two three because oars typically not always but typically generate in a like one like a two by one cluster um or more like three like in a l shape or a square etc So as we go down here if any orders we see them we uncover them odds are it’ll uncover the one here and the one here and same thing on this side it’ll uncover this wall and some that are in the middle as well um whereas if we were doing them side by side Like if we were skipping just two technically it would waste a little bit of space because if i’m going this way and i’m mine and i uncover some diamonds well then it’s actually gonna bust into the other side of my my branch mine and it’s going to kind of make it’s Going to kind of take away from the efficiency of this mine so we’re going to space them out by three this is method number one this is the most common method and this is the one that i’ll probably use most the time but i have an even better method that Should work and we’re gonna test that here tonight and whoa do i have some crazy lines on the screen now i have a chunk border visualization pack now there are ways that you can manually calculate trump uh chunk borders based on like what block that they’re on Um there are videos for that i’m not going to go over the math for that now because quite frankly i didn’t research it and know it and i can use this pack and if you’re on the pc or mobile you can also get this pack and use it as well um there are Multiple creators that make this i think foxy no tail has one i think the um bedrock tweaks has one as well so you guys can check those out there but the reason i have the pack one is because without getting too complicated in explaining this the amount of ores such as diamond iron Etc that can generate are based on a chunk meaning each one of these like 16 by 16 areas has a certain percentage chance of generating diamonds but if we go to a chunk border which is this blue line is kind of indicating there’s a border right here and we mine along this border Technically we should find more diamonds doing that because we are having a chance for diamonds to generate in this chunk that we’re in and this chunk that we’re uncovering so i don’t know how much more efficient it’s going to be it’s not double but it Is more so than if you were to just go down your like single chunk at least that i’ve heard it is so we’re going to test that out what we’re going to do is we’re going to go a certain distance in this direction on say this guy right here And on this guy right here and then we are going to see how many resources we get i will dump them off in the chests on their respective sides so you guys let me know down below which one do you think is going to get more or More importantly do you think the chunk border one’s going to get more or do you think they will be close enough to the same to where we can say it’s not a difference also if you really want to guess i want you guys to guess how many diamonds you Think we’re going to get total through this whole trip we’re going to go let’s say i don’t know how far is far i’m gonna plan on going about 500 blocks in that direction um i may extend it depending on how fast i go through it and then each time we’re going to start Out with an iron pickaxe and then we have some strategies to employ along the way next tip as you are tunneling down place down torches that way you can light up your little hallway to make sure that no mobs spawn on you also if you end up digging big areas out Like i got a bunch of coal out of here i like to fill in all the holes in the floor that’s that’s just me being me i guess and make sure that’s lit up too and always put your torches on the right why because it makes people on twitter Mad when i say put your torches on the right that’s why here we go here we go we have uncovered our first diamonds now one pro level tip write it down pro tip that you should always do when mining diamonds down here is you should uncover everywhere Around those diamonds to make sure that there is no sort of super top secret lava that can possibly destroy them because when and if it happens to you you’re gonna be really upset i think we’re good around that did the diamonds go up oh no okay well we ended up with one Two three and four diamonds which is awesome and we got some redstone as well now when you mine diamonds you actually wrong button you actually get the diamonds you don’t get the order and what we’re gonna do right away i 100 recommend this when you buy diamonds is go ahead and Convert those over to your first diamond pickaxe it is a lot quicker to mine with the diamond pickaxe and it’s actually a lot more efficient to go ahead and spend the diamonds than it is like in terms of time it’s more efficient to go ahead and just Spend the diamonds and make the pickaxe rather than save them and then what we’re going to do is since this side is going to be for this we’re going to take uh i don’t know we’ll put this out of here uh we’ll put like three cobblestone in to represent the fact That we did spend three diamonds from that side just to help keep an accurate count and i’ll go ahead and i’ll put that iron ore in here and let’s crack back on it we have mined into a cave which is is kind of cool and kind of fun You guys can do like a couple of different things if you find a cave first thing though is get rid of the orange juice because that’s going to kill you and we’ll just get rid of this orange juice too because eventually we’ll run across it And what i usually do when i find caves i don’t like exploring them too much because that’s that’s why i’m dead i’m not down here to explore caves but i like i’ll take a little peek and see if there’s like anything that’s just like right here and for the most part there’s not There’s some iron we’ll take the iron on us um because why not although it will it it can mess with our results from that so what we’ll do is we’ll just take the iron that’s like right there and then i’m gonna stick to the charcoal and stuff that’s around and we’re gonna Keep going in a straight line and one last thing to show you guys this is what you see when you’re mining oftentimes is yes we do have a lot of the orange stuff here which is fine so just be careful don’t fall in that’s why you always kind of stand back in line Place down your water we’re gonna pick that up i’m gonna place it back down here actually because we might mine out more yeah see there’s more lava and this is why we go on why level 10 or 11 and we don’t do this one you know like a lower y level like Seven or eight because we would come right into the side of that it would be a huge headache do you guys hear that there’s slimes we found we found ah he’s coming for me we found a slime chunk slime chunks are like chunks in the game uh where slime can spawn between a Certain level i think it’s all the way down to you know bedrock and all the way up to y level 40 i think it is and yeah we get slime balls from them which we don’t have an immediate use for but we will have a use for these guys in the future So not too bad of a thing to snag those i am so excited about this i had to break in guys we have not a one two three four five six or seven we have an eight nine we have a nine diamond ore vein right here i’m pretty sure that’s it i Didn’t look up here but i would be like crazily shocked if there’s anything else no there’s not nine diamonds in this vein um i decided i went to like a thousand that way and now i’m going to 300 this way just because i wanted to do both directions i Felt like that direction was a little unlucky yeah we’re using a scientific method of unlucky here um but wow just totally well let’s take a look at what we got so in the non-chunk border caves which is this one that goes all the way down to 1000 And this one that goes to 300 we got ourselves almost nothing we got a total of four diamonds that’s it only four three were used for this pickaxe so i threw that in here uh we got 64 iron okay not bad 21 gold ore that’s not too bad We got two stacks of coal which is pretty good 46 lapis okay and nine stacks plus 26 a redstone that was actually a really really really good haul but in the chunk border one we got seven stacks plus five redstone so we got less there 19 gold ore just a couple less we got almost double the iron ore 64 plus 48 we got almost double the coal we got three emeralds which was interesting we got the slime balls and then look at all the diamonds we got 16 plus three plus three so 22 23 diamonds versus only Four diamonds i don’t know if you call that confirms it’s a small sample size it could have been luck but that’s a pretty big difference i might be mining chunk borders from now on but yeah that was that’s super awesome that’s a good amount of diamonds to start out with too I don’t think i’m gonna make armor yet but that’ll at least get us some diamond tools to work with for a little while and one thing i almost forgot we’ll probably need this pretty soon here is we need to go get our winnings from the resource roulette from blue jay uh Should be in a chest over here and there we go 24 stone we’re really gonna have to up the ante here and i might start thinking about increasing these winnings a little bit i feel slightly cheated step step back and you’re bad luck okay i hate you i already looked i saw What you got i got a six yeah i’m not gonna look tell me do it oh hey by the way by the way i upped the i upped the stakes and these things so you’re gonna have to pay out more this time just so you know i’m not paying out anything i’m getting A nine ready okay here we go three two one That’s what i’m talking about right there that’s what i’m talking about we got a seven all right all right all right so i haven’t we haven’t done this yet blue jays blue jays fan picks so my fans have left some things in the comment section for me For you to get from me so let’s go ahead and see what they have uh okay i’m clicking it go brow go pow go what do we got iron no i don’t want to give you my iron iron is great iron is great i’m happy with iron all right we got iron In there and iron’s worth a lot right now times seven so we would double iron from time seven to times fourteen if i pull it oh that’s beautiful all right what are we gonna get from my prize box ready something i already have a lot of come on come on what do we Got what do we got what do we got oak logs times 12. that’s a lot of oak logs that could be a lot i could use those for i could use those for some things i’m working on that’s fine with me i would happily take those from you That’s kind of a lot all right after all the bad luck i’ve been having i deserve this this was a practice this was a practice round let’s go again i don’t think so oh hey look i got a nine [Laughter] you’re such a cheater is that how you Won the first two is that how you won the first two i’ll stop it all right i’ll go i’ll go get your vlogs and i’ll have it for you by the beginning of next episode thank you sir goodbye bye oh wait wait wait wait proud but hang on You’re not a total loser today only a partial one because i do have a gift for you what is it uh in the last episode you gave me a couple of maps and i have filled them in so you can have one for your location to see what i’m working on As things progress so there you go awesome you got some fancy stuff going on cool fancy fancy all right man thanks a lot i’m gonna i’m gonna go pout again bye bye now a good little tip of the day coming from the fans and a number of people put this in Was instead of using something like stairs they are a lot more expensive use slabs instead uh slabs do cost a lot less than stairs i specifically wanted these stairs here because i like the look from the outside better but from a resource perspective it can be very wasteful to do so So look at all the materials that you have kind of how it did in the floor in other episodes slabs are a good replacement for other blocks because they’re so cheap so there you go tip of the day make sure that you guys leave me another one So that way we can put that into the next episode and that is going to be it everybody we walk through our little halloween wonderland here it looks awesome i want to thank you guys so much for watching this episode if you have not already you got to hit that subscribe Button it helps out so very much you couldn’t even imagine we’re gonna hold a bone in our hand because that makes more sense for halloween i think so make sure you hit that subscribe button hit the like button drop me lots of comments all of those things Help the channel out immensely if you don’t know anything about youtube i promise you those things help out a lot so thank you guys so much and i will see you for the next episode thanks for supporting the series and i will see you guys on the stream on sunday bye Video
