Mumbo Jumbo – Hermitcraft 9: Episode 27 – BASE BUILDING!

Every single time I go into F5 mode I forget that I’ve got the crown and then get very quickly reminded that I have the crown hello by the way welcome to hermitcraft this Crown talk actually reminds me I haven’t checked up on the button in a very long time the good

Thing is because everyone’s been using decked out in theory this area should have been quite unloaded so yeah it looks like the button is still alive how has it managed to pull this off it’s doing well and do I want the three diamonds or shall I leave it for a diamond block I

Think I’m gonna come back to that one to start things off today I really wanted to do a bit of resource Gathering so we can finally start transforming this facade into an actual structure as cool as it looks from dead straight on it doesn’t look quite so good

From zidon yeah there’s a lot of work to be done here Decked Out is looming off in the distance as well don’t worry I will be playing some of that today but first it’s time for some warped stems now this is actually something I mentioned in the previous episode I kind

Of mentioned that I was putting it off because I thought it was a frustrating task having to go off into The Nether and gather up all of the wood completely forgetting which is ridiculous because I’m like the guy that really enjoys building farms and things I could just

Build a farm for it and it doesn’t even have to be a particularly complicated Farm I set myself up a little shifting platform with the bone Mill so then I could get all of the mushrooms I need to grow up the warp stems and then from there automatic bone meal dismanting the

Tree popped up and then I just climb it and tear it down obviously there are ways I could do this making use of redstone and piston pushers and TNT explosion Chambers and everything like that but the time that I would have spent doing that wasn’t really worth it because I could

Have just done the mining bit God am I all right that sounds really out of character for me out of character or not it’s done our not so monstrous chess monster is gradually growing and I think we have the majority of the resources required to actually construct at least

A few of these sites the only thing that I’m running low on right now is Blackstone which I’m going to gather more of in a little bit but first I need to build up a little something okay I would say I mean stone slabs those are

Going to be useful actually a very small amount of Blackstone is going to be handy just going to remove all of this get a few White Walls going on build myself a little bench and then yep those are my weights and I have built myself a little gym now

The reason I’ve just built the gym is because I’m about to flex so for those of you don’t know I’m quite into my cars and I’ve had this little 1970s BMW 2002 for the past five or six years and recently I sent it in for a restoration

And it’s just recently come back and it’s the greatest thing that has ever existed this is a hilarious angle I tell you what’s more hilarious look at when I stand up How Majestic is that it’s been resprayed a desaturated light blue color it now has wide wheel arches it’s got

Wider tires it’s got itb’s on its M20 engine swapped engine it has pineapple leather on the inside they made leather out of pineapples this may be hermitcraft season 9 but still peace love and plants it’s the coolest car in the world and I can’t see myself ever

Getting rid of it right that’s enough working out for one day let’s get some black stone and I got very lucky with this mining session and that I managed to hit the motherload of Blackstone veins I don’t even know what you’d call them it was just it was a gigantic blob

Of Blackstone underneath the ground that just seemed to go off in every single Direction which is very fortunate because generally speaking Gathering large quantities of Blackstone is probably one of the most frustrating things you can do in Minecraft it’s treacherous it’s always surrounded by lava and whenever you think you’ve found

A large amount of it it just seems to be one layer thick so I was really pleased with this and I managed to get a decent number of shortcut boxes in a fairly small amount of time and by that I mean a good number of hours so with that

Final gathering mission I’m in a very good spot now I would say this has to be enough right I mean I haven’t done any other calculations I don’t use light Magica I don’t use any fancy tools or anything like that I’m very old school I just eyeball it and I feel like

I feel like this has to be enough right people will ask me down in the comment section for not using these tools but this is the way I like to play the game except for when I mess up because I don’t use the tools in which case that’s

Not when I enjoy playing the game but I guess I live with my decision this build has been in the background of pretty much the entire episode I think it’s time that I put my name in the queue hello we used to see that Crown sticking out from around the corner

I just see Jewels oh no like I was uploaded look like the guy in Spaceballs with a huge helmet I’m not sure if you guys seen that movie oh I mean but not for a very long time not for a very very long time unfortunately [Laughter]

I might am I allowed to put my name in in the queue but then also work on something I’ll do is it is it a physical yeah yeah no no no we did one over here put it put it over here when when it’s uh you know when it’s nearly your turn

When you want you to head back over that is actually amazing is that okay oh yeah you can edit Signs Now my goodness yeah so it’s me zelloff and then we call your name wow right so I’ve got a decked out run on the horizon let’s start building up

The template for the bottom of my base that I can then build upon now it’s very important I get this right because if I get it wrong then the entire base is going to be completely off and that that couldn’t be a much bigger problem to be honest with you that’s

Like that that’s the worst possible outcome that could possibly happen ever so we have this diagonal here and then we have these Pokey out things which I think stick out by four blocks okay and those Pokey out things are three blocks wide and then in the center there’s a verdant

Frog lamp I can’t remember how deep it goes by the looks of things it is one block deep okay that makes sense so the verdict program goes in and then it is Blackstone but it’s polished down on this level and those things are six bucks wide and they are all six blocks

Wide up to the middle garden frog light and then another six now the middle bit is just this and then all of the warp stem stuff and then this and then the whole thing repeats itself now I’m just doing this as a placeholder for now just

So I know what it looks like don’t worry this isn’t going to be sticking around like this I actually need to make sure that the bands of the strip logs line up properly with the band of the strip logs over there that’s very important to me

But for the time being all I’m trying to do is make sure that I get all of the proportions correct so that should be the final set of little extend the outie bits now it’s time to do the diagonal that wraps around like this this is

Giving me a very good idea of how big my base is actually going to be it’s huge it’s absolutely enormous I’m actually really excited to see it in his final form let’s continue the templating so I guess this would be the moment of truth

If I am if I stand on this block right here I should be lined up with this corner yeah and I set my degrees to 90. yeah I’m lined up with that block and then I should also line up with this block over here which I am yes okay this is working my

Template is correct and everything has been measured properly excellent okay I’m fairly certain everything is correct but this will prove it if I drop down onto this block and then look straight up there should be a block above me kind of nervous there’s a sniffer it’s a block okay excellent everything

Has worked out so here is the footprint of my base next up I guess we should start constructing some of the walls but first my run of decked out just trying to get my Hunger down a little bit I did well it was the game always the game is broken the game is

Broken I’ve been telling that Sanger I performed flawlessly I did some good like Maneuvers I was jumping around really well but the game just didn’t pull its weight and just didn’t what am I gonna do with a teammate like that never gonna happen were you on that you were on the second

Level right you you went further in I was I managed to get down to level two um but things were things had gone badly by that point already I had a lot of a lot of Clank a lot of Badness happening around me so yeah yeah struggle to find

A key quick enough that’s that’s been a real problem for me for many many runs now just not finding a key anyway I mean I’m excited and nervous I don’t know why I’m so terrible at this sort of stuff I get so nervous I just lose the ability

To think immediately is bad it is bad my heart rate goes up my hands get all sweaty yeah and I’m shaking yes I’ve been meaning to ask you about this the way you play like so I get I get I get blasted enough for being a thumb

Shifter but you are also a thumb shifter but in a weird way than me because you pressure with your thumb but like it’s your it’s your usually the other way around the funny thing is like this is such a cozy way to sit because you know how

You’re supposed to sit when you sit like an office environment yeah I kind of said that because I have my my mouse in my left and then I play with waasd right but they’re so close and I shift with my thumb and shift I mean I press yeah so

It’s like yeah pretty much a shift and and control with my with my thumb yeah are we gonna have to talk about this more because I still don’t really understand what that is but the dungeon is open I can’t picture what you’re saying at all like you have your mouse and your

Left hand oh this is too much right I’m going in the dungeon I’m getting away from you to be honest with you I’m gonna take a picture one day okay I’m gonna send you a pic please I’m gonna slide into your DMs yeah this needs to be explained

A good luck number okay all I need to do is dump my pies that is all everything else has been put away uh set my respawn good stuff good stuff now let’s go in all right I am going to set my difficulty to easy I’ve got my

Deck there is nothing else in there that is weird Good oh I need the toilet all of a sudden to me there we go I am so excited but so nervous I can’t even remember what what did Corrales tell me to do he told me to not go left but instead go like a different kind of left

It’s a level one artifact obviously so there’s this one yeah I can hear that I’m just trying to look out for the ravager I was warned of a ravager and I can I could hear one sneak I’ve never actually gone this way before you know This is like a totally new part of the London for me I’ve never gone this way Oh oh Foreign ‘s going very well do I get straight out or do you reckon I should go for because I just heard Embassy car so there’s there’s obviously some Embers around here should I not be jumping over that by the way that seems like quite dangerous place to jump

I mean I don’t know where any of the Embers would come out oh there’s a key oh okay so that you actually have to find the key I’ve realized I’m setting off a bunch of shriekers and I’m actually gradually closing down the things should I just get out I think I’m gonna get out oh my goodness oh my goodness definitely should have gotten out should have gone out this was a bad move Oh no oh I can go this way foreign Is this a way that I should have gone like is this is this is this a place that I’m meant to be I feel like I feel like I shouldn’t be here I’ve gone the weirdest way Okay I remember where I am now I remember where I am I got myself briefly disorientated there I did just hear something which I probably didn’t want to hear Oh I’ve also realized I’ve forgotten to eat in any of the the berries Oh no oh no oh no oh no oh no oh my goodness I can’t believe that it’s just happened I mean I tried my best like I got that artifact so fast that I really wanted to try and get the extra Embers and everything like that that was my plan wasn’t really it didn’t go to plan it

Did not go to plan I managed to just endanger myself massively wow oh that was stressful I’m not gonna get much here yeah only six that’s barely anything I mean I can barely even afford I can only afford Moment of clarity this is the thing I hadn’t realized at the time

That the number of frost Embers actually coincides with with the number on the card this is this was news to me um so yeah I thought I could maybe get more but I guess I mean do I store them oh I can’t take them out can I

Now it’s just gonna have to be I guess it’s just gonna have to be Moment of clarity I mean how cool was that though I can’t believe that I almost ran head on into into a ravager oh that would have been that would have been pretty horrendous

Okay got no treasure no nothing to be honest with you it was a good run I still got out alive I survived And everything went well so what have I learned from this well firstly you may have noticed Compass skills much much better I listened to those of you down in the comment section second thing although I didn’t do it you may have heard me mention that I should eat the

Berries I I don’t know why I didn’t think to do that I genuinely thought they were for decoration I’m I’m a silly boy all right I’m a silly silly boy I’ve only got two brain cells it’s fine but that advice I think really helped me on

This run I felt good I felt like I could have done better I could have got more Embers and more treasure but still to come out with an artifact is a huge positive my win rate is currently three and four and and my ability to get the

Artifacts is four and four I mean that’s pretty good but I also have a ton of building that I need to do today so I’m going to stop playing video games and get back to the real hard pack and that work is placing blocks in a video game

Now I thought it would be a smart idea just to get the ball rolling by doing one section of the bottom segment of our Tower so obviously this thing is like a wedding cake right it’s like a three-tiered system so we’ve got the bottom section which is by far the

Biggest but I thought I would just get one Chunk in just to get a feel for what this thing looks like so that I can actually adapt it if it looks a little bit too blocky or a little bit too Square with that being said first impressions are this is looking really

Really good and it’s looking cool and I can’t see anything that I want to largely change with it I’m tempted to maybe add in some entrances down at the bottom and that will sort of break up the bottom section because it is quite slab sided but otherwise I am really

Really happy with the actual form of this thing and the scale of it you know I wasn’t sure if it was going to be too big or if it was going to look a little bit odd but no proportionally compared to my volt and also Green’s base which

Is directly opposite I really do think it fits in nicely I’m also kind of glad that I decided to only do this one side of this one segment because this is taking me a few hours as well and I’m off to font tomorrow to go rock climbing

I’ll let you know how that goes once I return for the time being this is where we’re at currently how cool does this look it looks so cool and so dark and so evil now one thing that I haven’t done is I haven’t tapered these edges here so this

Looks a little bit squarer but aside from that fairly small detail everything is looking awesome I’m I’m absolutely chapped a bit for this thing it’s come together so nicely I say every single time I look at this build but I could not be happier that I decided to blow up

That old base and start working on something different that was such a good decision and I’m hoping that now that we have all of the resources gathered in the next hermitcraft episode we should be able to make some serious serious progress on this thing and actually get it almost towards completion that’s a

Bold set of words to say I hope I don’t regret it anyway I’ll catch you the next time my craft episode see ya
