Sub’s World – 10 Creative Ways to Use Crying Obsidian in Minecraft 1.16!

Another snapshot that’s right a new nether snapshot is here and it’s introduced a brand new block crying obsidian look at it sub just look at it it drips so cool but that’s not all it’s good for here’s 10 creative ways to use crying obsidian in minecraft 1.16 As it stands you could currently only get this block by bartering with piglens there’s no crafting recipe so you better get to mining a bunch of gold sub luckily that also spawns in the nether now too number one the respawn anchor the only official use for crying

Obsidian is to combine it with glowstone in a crafting bench styx crying obsidian to be exact combined with three glowstone creates a special new block called the respawn anchor this tool is used to set your respawn in the nether and only the nether it’ll explode if used in the overworld or the end

You can fuel it up with glowstone for a maximum of four charges and it’ll ensure that you don’t land all the way back in the overworld after a gas ball catches you off guard the light level of this block also changes when placing more glowstone in effectively making it a powered nether lamp Number two eerie lighting levels there are all sorts of blocks that add lighting to your dark household corners furnaces are an obscure one but when burning they light up the area torches redstone torches even soul torches are now used to create well-lit or eerie atmospheres but today’s sub we’re using crying obsidian

I bet no one could have imagined that a block of obsidian would be able to produce light but if you think about it it is formed with lava and that’s another natural light source in minecraft crying obsidian is also only found in the nether where glowstone naturally

Generates this could mean that the block has a natural glowing property that may be genetic to many nether blocks light up subs world by subscribing with just one hit of a button you’ll be notified every time we upload and if you subscribe i’ll hit sub into this giant

Lake of lava do it press the button stand right there sub are you ready yeah Number three dripping giveaway maybe crying obsidian will come in handy for another purpose a secret purpose what’s the most secretive thing you know how to build in minecraft sub are you thinking what i’m thinking exactly a hidden entrance with those dripping particles being quite subtle and only noticeable the

People who are looking for them it means crying obsidian can be really useful for pointing out a location most things remain hidden because people just don’t look for them after all steve doesn’t even know about crying obsidian yet so he definitely won’t be looking that’s for sure

Create your base deep in the walls of the nether and then create a trail of crying obsidian in the roof it’ll occasionally drip down and if you ever get lost or need to find your base you can just follow the particles all the way there number four morning drip

I’ll tell you something sub it’s been a while since you visited your good pal steve perhaps you should reignite your friendship with a prank grab some more gold and get trading with piglens because you’re gonna need a lot of crying obsidian for this one now a regular block of crying obsidian on its

Own will drip pretty slowly but if you stack them higher up more drips will fall down at once making it seem far more noticeable knowing this you can find steve’s house and create a giant 2d square of crying obsidian above his doorway this should create a crazy black

Dripping effect and as soon as steve wakes up in the morning to get some fresh air he’ll think it’s raining black goo better stay inside steve it looks like the world is ending nice one sub number five leaf blossoms hey sub i’ve got an idea since you love

Messing with data packs so much and because mods are such a popular thing in minecraft let’s see how crying obsidian could be manipulated into one place down some crying obsidian and take a good look at what they remind you of what could they possibly be retextured into perhaps the polar opposite of its

Current form right now it’s dark bleak and dingy so perhaps we should brighten it up come to think of it the dripping particles do kind of look like falling leaves perhaps you could reimagine the crying obsidian as a blossoming leaf block with the particles resembling falling petals

Wow this looks awesome sub i never realized how nice purple trees looked it’s like a whole new biome a crying biome see it’s not all doom and gloom here on subs world and if you enjoy the ideas we bring to the channel then make sure to

Smash that like button it goes a long way Number 6 leaky sewage let’s look at another way that the dripping particles of crying obsidian can be used what else can you think of in the real world that’s oozing in drips a sewage pipe exactly that’s totally what i was thinking sub that waste has

Got to go somewhere after all and if you want to bring your city builds or drainage systems to life then you should be using this block it makes for a great leaking pipe that you can add to the site of more industrial areas or perhaps near a

Nuclear bunker i do wonder what it is that’s dripping from the block obsidian juice maybe Number 7 netherspread Players have had regular old nether portals rotting away in their basements for years now with no signs of updates now that the nether update has finally arrived and the dimension has a makeover there’s so much more reason to visit this also means there’s much more reason

To dust off your portal and make it look nicer well i say nicer just cooler grab various nether blocks and of course some crying obsidian and branch them out from your portal create your own little nether area as if the blocks from that dimension are seeping into the overworld

And slowly spreading or to make your current nether portal stand out to avoid getting lost the crying obsidian adds a great effect to this with the particles and ominous lighting steve may even think that the new update has added nether corruption which takes over the world you better run steve

Number eight emotional furniture who said furniture didn’t have feelings anything made with crying obsidian sure will while there’s no crying sound the blocks do add some emotion to your interior and exterior because it’s a light source why not use it in conjunction with the new nether wood blocks to create lamp posts there

Are hundreds of minecraft map post designs but i bet you’ve never tried this one before perhaps this would be better suited for inside the nether but the option is always there if you want to bring a piece home with you make sure to let us know what other furniture pieces and

Decorations you create from this block Number nine the creepy spaceship perhaps your building technique is a little more abstract or genre specific fan of sci-fi sub you built a rocket or two in the past right well that crying obsidian may come in useful here the dripping particles and the weird texture of the block make it look almost alien

And definitely not of this world build yourself a nice spaceship corridor and make it look infested like an unknown life form has taken over and attacked the crew you could even use this to scare steve got any other bright ideas how would you use crying obsidian in minecraft make

Sure to let us know in the comments the block is brand new after all and like all new minecraft things there’s heaps of possibilities number 10 the crying obsidian portal going back to basics here have you ever looked at your portal and felt like it

May need sprucing up a little i mean the noises it makes aren’t especially attractive the solution to this redecoration of course grab some different nether blocks including crying obsidian and change up how the portal looks you can’t currently craft a portal from crying obsidian but you can surround the

Regular obsidian with it to make your portal drip and look far more alive spooky huh sub where do you think a crying obsidian portal would take you maybe to a dimension where there’s only water instead of lava get this sub it would be called the wetter [Laughter] okay i’ll stop

Incredible how one new block can have so many new uses thanks again for taking the time to investigate and show us all of this sub i’m sure the viewers are very grateful for it now we just need to think of a way to get rid of all this excess crying

Obsidian seriously sub i think you bartered a whole lot from the piglets maybe go and prank steve a few more times huh see you next time Hey
