Minecraft Let’s Play – Nether Hub & Ice Plains Spikes Biome – ep. 37.

Hello and welcome to 316 minecraft it’s a lovely sunny day here in minecraft land uh what are we going to do today well it’s a very good question the kids are at school uh so i’m on my own which is actually quite good um okay first thing we’re gonna do is explain

The plan my plan was to go right back down to the slime farm i’m just going to show you quickly how we’re doing with that and in fact much as i love shaders the shaders are going to have to go off for this it’s just a bit dark there we go

I’ll show you this quickly um our brand new slime farm i’ve been doing a bit of work down here um but water lily says i’m not allowed to work any more on this today she wants to finish it with me but i can hear slimes this is all good

So i have put in place oh look at that in place of water canal system it needs a bit of work i’ve got the corners quite right hello large slimes well i can’t actually get to you oh steady better so you can see actually in building this slime farm i’ve probably got

All of the slimes i would ever actually need i’ll tell you what it’s noisy down here all those caught in the middle that’s going to be where the uh where the water canals meet and go into kind of a mob whoa i don’t like that at all

This is not oh how i planned it there’s another big one there i get him just a case of mopping up these little guys it all goes quiet which is kind of good so i was not sure with this whether to make it into a kind of mob you know xp

Farm type thing or just a straight mob drop thing because to be honest i’ve actually probably got as much slime as i’m ever gonna need already i’ve got like half a double chest full upstairs but anyway back up to the surface it’s all very exciting so today’s plan

I said to lauren i said do you think i should finish off the uh slime farm or do you think i should build a massive kind of nether hub type thing and go to an ice spiked by i’m always bedtime because i want to go too i’m there

Yeah i want to go to the uh the ice spikes by him really and get some packed ice now that i’ve got my new uh touch pickaxe if i can get pack at packed ice it’s great because then i can um put in the uh the item elevator that i

Wanted to put in which actually works a bit better and far more than the one i’ve gotten it’s also much better on them computer cpu usage but while i’m down here i’m just going to get some sandstone repair that floor i don’t know how much i need

And then we’ll get into the episode look at that 52 and precisely two that wasn’t mob damage that was just me not realizing how powerful my pickaxe was but yeah downstairs with the slime from it’s definitely working things are spawning on the upper levels and falling into the water canals i just wasn’t

Noticing before because they were usually dying from fall damage but now put the water in place they’re not so they tend to be a lot bigger slimes because before the big slabs are just getting broken up into little slimes so anyway the reason i’m kind of oops

The reason i’m sort of prevaricating not actually getting into it is that i’m a bit scared of another first thing i wanted to do though was make a new diamond pickaxe and enchant it because i don’t really want to use my good mining pickaxe down in the nether for another wrap

Or getting a bit low on diamonds as well so let’s craft a brand new pickaxe i’ve got nearly 31 levels let’s see what enchant i can get on this if i wanted some lower enchantments what i could do of course is um let’s take a few bookcases away efficiency four

That’s not bad at all i don’t mind if i do well i’m not sure that’s still not a bit overpowered what’s that diamond picker it’s not just a normal diamond pickaxe there i guess it is that’s my another efficiency for pick fortune two i don’t really need that i’m going to

Put that back in the chest i’d quite like to have them breaking on it but i don’t think i’ve got i’m breaking left on any enchanted book sharpeners protection power no those are more sword things aren’t they right so without further ado let’s go into the nether the only reason

I need that pick is why am i going that way um it’s for my netherrack anyway i’m going to save my silk touch one for if we find a nice spikes by him first thing i want to do is not die let’s try and get to the ceiling of the nether whoa

What are you doing there oh wow that was quite scary because i was a bit confused though i didn’t know that was a skeleton i thought it might be a um zombie pigman wow okay so one thing we need to watch out for when mining around in the nether why do i

Need an axe it’s odd you just got odd blocks of lava now this is going to cut through this like butter i’m going to bring my f3 i have no idea where the top of the nether is but i kind of want to make a bit of a stairway up there

So that is just what i’m going to do so i’m going to pause this video in fact now i might even do a cool gamer guy underscore yt style um what you call it um you know that thing where you do it in like a sort of fast speed or whatever

I’m gonna do that i think so i’ll be back with you shortly well i’m actually back because i completely forgot everything i might need in the uh i’ve got a chest out here called things we might need for today’s episode and it’s completely full so i need a bed

Maybe an extra bucket might be useful put it there the chest in case we get full silk touch pick is a must stand in case we have to block down in the nether which i don’t think we will but just in case and the pearls i’ll come to later dirt i’ll come too

Dark oak saplings are also related to those most of you probably realize what i’m about to do here uh torch that’s why i’ve got the axe yes obsidian fantasy i love the flint and steel in this texture pack it’s like a cigarette lighter put signs

In just in case i needed those so i’m off back to the nether and i shall see you shortly okay well i’ve backed up everything um i think i probably need to um i’ve got the rest of my under pearls just in case let’s go for it my goodness i think we’re there

Look at this photo looks weird in this texture pack so i guess what i need to do now let’s try and make a way down let’s just dot some torches around so we know we can light up the area this is weird being on top of bedrock it’s even

Weirder being on top of bed rocking survival oops sorry i know i’ve just hit my microphone i do apologize so somewhere around here so i should have some dirt on me because we need to make i want to make sure we can get that down let’s plant some dirt i’m also gonna

Put some more torches around the area not much will spawn up here there might be a few mushrooms somewhere which is good i like mushrooms it’s got 600 pearls left this is good i need bone meal i need dark oak saplings there we go let’s try this i’ve seen this done in

Videos i’ve never tried it basically you need to bone meal the tree until it grows there we go and what you need to do is break the bottom layer it looks so easy on the videos but the bottom layer of wood more saplings bone meal that that didn’t work try again

Actually it’s not a major issue because we can just create another portal and get back down i’m gonna try and bone meal a different sapling now oh that’s looking more promising i see leaves looks like it could be a way down oh is that a way down nearly not quite so way down

But close we’ve got some way through let’s uh see how we did on the other side i know i should have bought shears with me i’ve got some food now so that’s good it’s not very much light up here is that that went through as well but it didn’t go through very far

Looks like that also went through okay so we’ve not managed to break through somewhere we can actually use yet oops you know what i’m going to i’ve got this dark oak i’m going to put that back in there it’s all a bit weird don’t really understand how to do this

I’ll pull that back and definitely hear aghast oh that’s okay try more saplings two three four don’t mail them no that’s not bone mailing is it one two hello tree mighty strange tree this have we broken through anyway that’s the question and not really is the answer oh

Actually i could just build another well for the purpose of this video i am just there for now i’ll give it one more go i’ll give it one more go give it one more go and if this doesn’t work i’ll just build another portal because it could well be that there’s

Actually no bedrock that’s really thick enough one more try done something because you can’t get anywhere near it for the leaves unbelievable surely this has got to have worked i think i would say not i’ve already been over here oh nearly so this is great we can nearly access

I think maybe the bedrock’s too thick here so we may just have to i’ll go on the other side of that oh it’s so gloomy up here ah and we have a way out excellent you know what i should have done i should have built some ladders fortunately that doesn’t really matter

I can block up with something i can climb up there’s our way down i think it’s even into our little room so i’m going to build a quick crafting table which i didn’t think to bring but given that i knew we’re going to get wood it’s not really a problem

What are you doing just completely forgotten how to it’s like trouble yeah he builds a few crafting tables so i now need to make some sticks five for my dad let’s just turn all of that into wood build our crafting table don’t need the bone meal anymore put that down

I’m going to make logistics sticks how’d you actually make ladders can anybody remember like that it would appear my inventory is getting full so there’s my way down i’ll see if i can actually do this without taking any fall damage so there’s my way back on top of bedrock that is very exciting

Just celebrate what am i gonna need to celebrate i will be so excited by this it was harder than i thought it’d be though right there we go did i bring signs i did break signs actually actually my inventory is completely full never all right i think we’re okay here so i’m

Actually gonna put because my inventory is a bit full i’m gonna i’m actually gonna make a chest i think that’s my crafting table i know i’ve got a chest but i might as well make one because i really don’t want all of this netherrack cluttering the place up there we go

I’m gonna put my ender pearls in there as well just to be safe probably don’t need the bone mail probably don’t need the saplings i do need the obsidian i’m sure i need that wood i’m just trying to keep it light because i want plenty of inventory space to bring back

Goodies like packed ice okay i need ladders maybe not i don’t know right so next stage of the proceedings i am using a program called a mid so i’m just going to quit this because it kind of in single player mode it kind of pauses minecraft to amidst

Which is a wonderful tool for finding things now if you look at my mouse pointer um obviously this is the overworld and that’s what we’re aiming for that is kind of why this is a this is the same from this morning so where that little player icon is there is where

Um where the house is and i’ll put a link in the description to where you can download amidst it’s very useful you see all the way down here it’s probably about that’s i think you should say i ice playing spikes i think that’s where i want to be heading there’s also

One over here i think that’s a bit further so this should be the nearest one and i have written down the coordinates of that on the ipad now bear in mind that when you are um yeah if you want to set up a nether hub type thing you need to uh basically

Divide those coordinates by eight so i’m going to go back to my minecraft now because eight blocks in the overworld equates to one block in the nether which means you can travel eight times as fast basically i’m just going to get down into this no i’m not it’s the wrong hole

I’m just going to go down into here where it’s a little bit safer okay i’m back now i’ve done the maths it’s all good bring back up f3 i need to be heading two uh minus six seven six so i need to be facing which way is minus six seven

This way minus six seven six um four four nine so basically this sort of direction so i’m just gonna go for it minus six seven six four four nine i’m not gonna bother doing a speedy uppy thing for this because there’s just no point it’s gonna be really boring

So i will see you on the other side good grief this is taking a while i did write down the uh coordinates of the original nether portal by the way in the nether so uh i can’t find my way back across this massive bedrock field when we’re done

So i’m something like right four minus six seven six four four nine a bit further than i wanted to be back up a bit just because i’m an ocd sort of person i will try and ah this list of this will be close enough

I’m going to put a torch down so i can actually see what i’m doing just put a nice circle good job i’ve got a circle of torches around us we are going to build another portal right so we need obsidian and apparently a cigarette lighter interesting i want some carrots i’ve been connect

Collecting the odd mushroom amazing how many mushrooms you get spawning on top of the nether now can i remember how to make one of these that’d be right one two three now that looks about right doesn’t it let’s see if it works yes it does sort of the ready in fact the other

Thing i’m going to get ready is my bed it’s maybe slightly laggy as well downloading terrain wow and you know it’s daytime and we’re in a nice spikes biome how cool is that oh it’s very laggy though it’s generating neutral i’m so excited what i will do is just write down the

Dimensions oh look i’m skating around on the ice i’m just going to write pause for a sec and write down the dimensions i should be back to the directions coordinates of this nether portal i shall be back and i’m back aren’t these things superb

I think it’s time to oh this is just so beautiful i think it’s time to try out my silk touch pick i can’t wait a little looks dangerous yes it works packed ice how good is that you can use normal ice by the way for these item animators just need a few

Blocks of ice in the bottom you can use normal ice but normalized has a nasty habit mounting on you we are skating so i’m gonna i’m not intending to come back here too much this is very exciting i actually managed to pick up some snow

No you can’t pick up snow with this sort of touch pick so i’m just going to pick up some of this ice maybe about stack if i put it in my hot bar then i can see can’t breaking on it so that’s not so bad oh this is really quite exciting i’m

Quite chuffed by this what is slightly concerning is actually climbing up on top of packed ice because if i slide off i might hurt myself right but i need to get up that way in order to mind these last few blocks i can get that so this is basically one ice spy cam

Mining i guess and how cool that my nether portal actually spawned right next to an ice spike i love it when you see stuff on minecraft videos that it actually works because you never quite believe it okay i’ve got to stay i have got a stack i’ve got a stat and four

This looks quite cool shall i go for this one as well might be quite a nice thing to do let’s see if we can get around to it somehow yeah okay this may well be a point in the video where i just fast forward so i’m just curious to see

How far these things go down i discovered i dug it flat and they seemed to have a bit of a root on them i thought i’ll just explore and dig this one a bit see where it leads i wonder if it’s like i wonder if it’s a bit like um

You know icebergs i don’t there’s quite as much of it under the surface however i missed an opportunity for coal well that wasn’t really the purpose of the conquest i just put a torch down there so that while i’m not here and nowhere near it nothing spawns not that i care

How am i supposed to get out of here oh a little bit full that was not the plan the plan was to leave myself enough space so that i could if i’m just leaving enough space so that i could actually take some normal ice back as well you know we might want it

For cocktails or something let’s go to sleep so i’m going to sort my inventory out and i might go in my mind some uh packed nope not mine that packed ice already i’d go and mine some normal ice now oh i’ve got one little space in my

Inventory that’s good so i can do that so touch pick i was going to say where can i find normal eyes from but i think in this by end i think it’s all ice isn’t it it’s better to get pretty now i’m gonna get distracted by pretty yellow flowers so

Presumably this is oh it’s cold in there apparently this will be yeah excellent i can actually mine the ice this could come in quite useful when mining the glass as well i was going to get one stack of this because that’s frankly all i’ve got room for

Ice is less useful particularly in the desert biome it might sort of melt but you can use it in dark places given that we’re here and we’ve got room in our inventory i think i’ll get some tell you what it’s all easy to mine them i love this so touch pick it’s just

Fantastic come on just a few more blocks all is a stack mine is stacked i’ll be happy oh it’s cold down here all right teammate let’s head back to the nether portal which must be this way somewhere must be yeah my inventory’s full so i can’t even pick that stuff up

So i guess it’s back through the nether portal which is somewhere over there i could even get snow couldn’t i well there’s no point in doing that yeah right so i’m going to head back into the nether portal i’m going to pick up my bed with me because i don’t want this to

Be a spawn point and i’m going to oh i say that i’ve actually got room have i what can i throw out what can i throw out cobblestone i don’t need cobblestone i will turn my bed okay right i shall meet you back at the base assuming i ever get there

Yes i am back i didn’t die i have my peptides with me now where the heck am i gonna put that theory me i’ll have to work on that yeah we’ve got some dark oak wood there and it’s exciting so just to uh quickly to fill you in on

This um i’m going to put some of this in the elevator when i’m down here obviously just because i can um yes the elevator is great but there have been a couple of issues with it it actually blocked up and stopped working and i discovered i think

One of us must have put a bucket of lava and i suspect it was it was water lily and it met the water at the top and turned into obsidian which is a bit weird so it’s like it’s suppose the droppers are just supposed to drop stuff but i suspect it actually

Sort of fired out the lava rather than the bucket maybe i accidentally placed a dispenser or something so that’s really weird so i’m going to put some of this stuff in the chest perhaps eyes can all go up obsidian coal normal ice yes so the idea was where is it where is

It is there yeah so this is the item elevator and all this basically can go so i’ll center it on this block three by three and the idea is that um items in glass you know if they’ve got nowhere else to go we’ll just float up

But in order to do it you need to kind of make a way into it and there’s a special way you do that with fences fence posts and it needs a bit of packed ice just to make sure that the water flows in the right direction just kind of corrects the

Water flow i think so we’ll be doing that that’s all good really um yes so i hope you’ve enjoyed the episode it was a bit scary but we managed to survive so i will see you again very soon when we’ll either be doing um like finishing off the slime farm we

Might be rebuilding the item elevator it could be anything really so have fun have a great day i will see you soon bye
