wattles – Bastions are one of Minecraft’s Best Structures EVER | Minecraft 1.16 Nether Update

Hey hey there everybody how’s it going it’s me your guy waddles hope you’re doing well today I’m excited I am very very excited for today’s adventure the 20w 60 days snapshot finally added bastions to Minecraft bastions are Minecrafts newest mega structure these structures are absolutely gigantic they generate within

The nether have lots of pigments a fair amount of Hoagland’s usually and some pretty decent loot if you’re lucky as well in my 20 w 16 a snapshot breakdown video I asked you guys if you wanted to see this video and the poll was overwhelmingly in the direction of yes

So here’s today’s video in today’s video we’re gonna take a look at three super cool looking fashions that I’ve found I will show the world seed when I’m checking out each bastion and I’ll leave the seed down in the description and I’ll show the coordinates as well I’d

Also like to say that I haven’t had a bunch of time to break down the technicalities of bastions quite yet so today’s adventures are really just adventures if you enjoy this video let me know by dropping a like and subscribing so Bastion number one we’re going to

Start today’s video off by checking out the bastion that I recorded today’s videos intro it this bastion right here this bastion is located in this world right there I’ll put the seed in the description and is found at these coordinates right here negative seven thousand five hundred ninety five seven

Thousand at least approximately so I think we’ll actually start at the top of the Sebastian and work our way down this piece of the bastion is technically considered a housing unit I believe so we have a ruined winding staircase right here that leads us right down to our

Very first loot chests and of course I’m going to go ahead and take a look inside of this thing now you have to remember that when exploring this thing in survival one you’re probably going to want to bring some gold armor and where the stuff so the pigments don’t

Instantly aggro to you and to if you open chests the pigments are going to actually get mad at you so you’re going to have to come up with some way to work around that now this structure is a gigantic maze it’s very very easy to get

Lost in here so it might be a pretty good idea to bring something like some torches or something because yeah giant maze gonna get lost kind of bad or you could just kind of rip the structure out as you go which that will definitely work too but I mean then you’ve ruined

The natural beauty I the natural light because the destruction of this thing what do we have over here any nether right ah I multi-shot a unbreaking one okay yeah not the best loot there so yeah after recording yesterday snapshot showcase video I did learn that you can

Actually find a nether right year inside of these things which is pretty crazy pretty Opie and definitely going to be the best loot that you can possibly find inside of these things there’s also quite a bit of lanterns in these structures so if you like decorating with lanterns maybe come over here take

Some of the lanterns and you’ll be good to go let’s go ahead and flip into spectator mode so we can kind of speed things up here because I this structure winds down quite a long ways you can see here that this is kind of wrapping down but unfortunately it doesn’t really go

Anywhere if there were any chests on there we would be able to see them in spectator mode so basically long hallways that don’t really lead anywhere is what’s down below that piece of the bastion but there’s a whole lot more so sliding back over where we started

Pretty much if we look down here we’ll find a bridge if we jump down onto this bridge we find this really cool looking room down here with lava this thing is organized and looks really really nice this room sort of makes me think of like maybe maybe some sort of base or storage

Room if we like put glass over the floor here you can make a gigantic storage room I don’t know I think that would be pretty cool but anyways we have a bridge that leads over into this part of the structure and oh boy if you haven’t seen

This part of a bastion yet you are in for a good surprise because take a look of this room right here it is gigantic it’s deep it’s big and it’s amazing looking so we have pathways going around the edge of this room sort of like balconies but you need to be careful

There are holes all over the place here if you fall it could be bad depending on where you fall now these pathways around the edge of the structure are more like rooms because they don’t all necessarily come if you’re trying to check out each and every one you’ll need to bring a pickaxe

And you’ll definitely need to bring something like some scaffolding or some building blocks to make your way around this thing an interesting piece of this structure that I really really like is this bit right here this is like that romantic you know like getaway room in

The middle of a bastion you know you’ve ever wanted to just relax with the piggle and spy the fire well this is the place where you would definitely do that but you’ll have to convince the people and actually be your friend first because yep unless you’re wearing gold

You’re just not their friend but I don’t know I do really think that this piece of the structure is cool kind of interesting to see the devs using just netherrack and fire instead of like campfires I mean they use lanterns in these structures so why not just do

Normal campfires I get the blue soul fire campfires would HIGHLY stress out the big ones but I don’t know just thought that was kind of interesting but it still is really really cool over here we have that exact same structure just a little bit lower now the really

Interesting part of the structure has actually found down here at the bottom of it this is technically called the treasure room over in the treasure room we have a brand new spawner that is hung via a new Minecraft chain from the ceiling and this spawner spawns yup you

Saw it there magma cubes this is unlike anything that has been added to Minecraft in at least the last couple years the devs have not added a new spawner that spawns within a survival structure into the game in a long long time which is pretty exciting here this

Room is definitely a room that I plan on heading into in survival to make of course a magma cube farm so we can farm those magma creams for potions of course now over here we have some gold loot you take it if you want to remember people

And still like it if you mind gold blocks as well and then actually over here we have some loot as well inside of this chest of spectral arrows spectral arrows are in my opinion one of the better pieces of loot that you can find in these structures how useful are they

I don’t know debatable but you can find them here which I do think is kind of cool flipping over into spectator flying around the edge of this structure here you can see that we do have another loot chest right over here but aside from that I don’t think we have too much more

Inside of this structure basically Jake antek cool room lots of lanterns of course as you can see lots of penguins a ton of black stone and that spawner that spawner is really the big takeaway from this structure I love that thing and we’re definitely gonna see some of that

Action and survival when making some sort of barb or something oh hey there is another little chest what do we have ah the music just the music disc that’s awesome that is sweet but I think that is actually just about it for Bastien number one if you find something more

Here definitely send me a screenshot over on Twitter time for bashing number two oh boy Bastion number two is really really cool-looking this is the passion that I tweeted a screenshot of so this bastion is located in the exact same world and almost at the same coordinates

This passion is maybe about 500 blocks away from the other one this bastion looks a whole lot different though so first off take a look at this gigantic bridge piece right here with this little structure now what does this thing meant to be I don’t know I’ve spent a lot of

Time taking a look at this thing I can’t tell is it like a hog limb that’s the closest thing that I could see like that’s a tusk that’s a tusk that maybe that’s the head I have no clue and what is that well I don’t know I I genuinely

Don’t know what that thing is meant to be but it’s cool-looking again remember if you try and take the gold blocks the pigments are going to be upset but people once don’t care if you break black stone or quartz so you can take those things but the gold maybe think twice about it

Now this bridge is absolutely ruined this thing is destroyed so you’re going to need to be careful but take a look at this piece right here this is really really cool-looking now if you slide into the seat and you check it out it’s going to look a little bit different I

Use some TMT to blow this piece of the I guess the mountain away so we could see the face on this thing take a look at this we have one eye right there the piggelin snout the Pinklon mouth the gems are on point with this structure

This is amazing and if you saw my building with Blackstone video oh wow I was turning another fortress even to sort of like it had like a head structure was nowhere near as cool-looking as this but just amazing I like how they use polished bezel inside of this thing for the teeth makes

The teeth look really really worn out the pigments have not been taking care of these things definitely but yeah this area is really cool-looking now there’s a hog one here and initially when I found in this place there were more hog lens inside of this thing as well

I love the lava on the side as well definitely gives off this whole creepy dangerous vibe now this sort of doesn’t really go anywhere so if you’re trying to actually explore this thing you’re going to need to get brave and start jumping through some of these holes here

If we go down one layer from the layer that we were just on we’re then in a place that looks like this even more lava flowing everywhere and a more bridge this bridge actually is the same bridge that we were just on it’s just sort of like a lower layer of that same

Bridge but this piece is I think mostly for show I do think there are a little bit of rooms though inside of the head tube which is really really cool and I think I found some loot in here too let me see if I can refine that loot though

Was it in here was it in this one aha there is loop but it’s not actually located in the head so we’re on the back side of the head if we slide over this way we have some loot right over here in a gas – oh boy but inside of this chest

What do we have we have some nether right scrap that’s amazing that is big loot that’s really really good over here we have ancient debris which is just as good as nether right scrap except this hasn’t been smelted up in a perdu so i guess it’s actually a little less good

This the pig limb Bainer pattern that’s really cool you get one of these things you’re good forever in your world so long as you don’t lose it so that’s pretty nice then of course we have none other than the soul speed enchantment on these golden boots as those for the rest

Of that room nothing else really but if we flip into spectator we will see this structure does continue downwards here we have some winding hallways that really unfortunately go pretty much nowhere if you follow these hallways down they go down to the lava which is nice but ya know like interesting loot

Or anything basically just another way in so theoretically you could grab one of these Striders crews right over to this part of the bastion and then make your way up to the top eventually finding the loop that’s at the top of this thing so going back outside of the structure again

Behind the head or the bridge piece we have the whole right side of the structure which is equally as gigantic now to start no loot at the top of this one right here but of course we do have quite a bit of structure to check out inside of here now unfortunately this

Side of the structure also doesn’t really have too much at all so we really don’t have a lot of loot inside of this structure when compared to the other one but this structure one final point that I’d like to make here about this thing is pretty much a gigantic pig ‘land I

Mean at least how I see it I sort of see this side over there is like an arm or a shoulder and then the other side that we can’t see as an arm or a shoulder and then of course the head part right there it’s like a piglet wearing nether right

Armour at least into my imagination and then a bridge going into its mouth maybe that’s like its tongue kind of disgusting yeah I really didn’t need to know that that’s what do people in town looks like apparently but yeah pasture number two gigantic piglet looking structure it’s super cool you need to

See this in Minecraft for yourself because it is gigantic the scale of this thing it’s huge it is really really cool Bastion number one was really cool because it had that spawner room Bastion number two it was really cool because it was a gigantic face even though half of it was completely blocked

Bastion number three is actually two bastions combined into one but not at the same time these are two separate bastions the seed is right here again that’ll be down in the description and the coordinates that you’re looking for are right here negative 684 negative 431 so a lot closer to probably where you

Would be heading into the nether in the first place now the first Bastion is right there the second one is actually right over there now unfortunately these are both bastions that we’ve sort of already seen in this video this Bastion is one of these gigantic face looking bastions but I mean look it

You can actually see the face of the side of the structure if you doubted me last time you thought it was crazy and there’s no way you could do that because 100% it’s a face uh how do you not see it we’re gonna check out both of these

Fashions still but we’re going to move through them a whole lot quicker because they’re sort of what you’ve already seen so again weird structure thing right there if somebody can tell me what that is that would be great and a bridge that is absolutely destroyed that goes into the pig lands

The pig lands mouth area now behind this bastion this time we don’t have a loot room right over here the loot is actually gonna be a little bit trickier to find at least from the outside of this thing the head is a little bit more filled out though and inside of the head

Behind this eye we have some loot right there with a lodestone which is really really cool have you’ve been following 1.16 you know that the lodestone is basically a directional marking block it’s pretty cool moving up the head a little bit more we have this interesting looking I guess like top balcony area

But it’s completely blown in so that’s not really safe to stand but I mean imagine restoring this thing then it could be really really cool to stand on definitely a nice top to your base maybe you put like a glass dome on it or something the people in has like a like

A helmet not I have no clue but I yeah we do actually have the top of the head this time which is kind of cool to see flipping in the spectator mode here we can fly through the structure and see that unfortunately there are no loot chests on the other side behind the

Other eye but we do have quite a bit of structure this time over here and actually loot inside of it let’s see what we have inside of this chest any nether right ah no crossbow with the cursor vanishing thanks big ones you’re great you’re great you’re great I definitely wanted that one this

Structure is even more maze-like than the other one the hallways continue downwards quite a bit but unfortunately I I don’t really see anything interesting down here really worth our time worth checking out now this maze like bits of the structure do sort of connect over to the other side as well

Underneath the other side you know more of the same thing winding hallways there is this gilded black stone in here and if you’re looking for gold which would be cool to get but again palin’s gold you know you know the deal already but we do have yet another loot chest over

Here hopefully this time we get something a little bit better than a curse vanishing crossbow ah anything the beylin pattern that’s cool that’s cool you can’t craft the thing now I would say that’s a little bit better than a cursive vanishing crossbow but in terms

Of loot as far as I’m aware I think that’s actually just about it for this structure this structure is more so just really cool-looking and again absolutely gigantic having take a look at that thing that’s huge this structure does have that hole under the bridge area too which is really

Cool-looking lots of lava flowing in there definitely be careful but Bastion number two which is actually also located conveniently by a ruined nether portal like this is the place to go this is like the best thing ever yeah the loot here is not the best but I

Mean it’s a ruin nether portal with the passion in a bastion what could be better now this bastion is thankfully one of the bastions that I sort of like a little bit more because you know I like to make Barb’s this bastion has the spawner room down here at the bottom now

If you could remember the first fashion that we checked out the gold area in this area looked quite different this one is actually built here and would you take a look at this we have some loot down here with a nether right sword curse of vanishing which is pretty bad

But it’s still nothing right which is amazing and now unfortunately elites you can’t remove the curse with the grindstone or anything like that it’s gonna be stuck on there forever but it’s another IDE sword I mean come on come on is another right which is really really cool-looking

Yeah and there’s even more loot around the edge of this thing too where is it these things are so confusing I know I saw it somewhere aha I found the loot chests so this time both of the other loot chests are at least the other two that I could find

Are located at higher up so over here in this corner we have this loot chests the loot in this chest isn’t really the best unless you consider the crying obsidian because we can’t actually craft crying obsidian so that’s kind of good over in this loot chests we have this loot right

Here this time the pig step disc is definitely the best thing by far continuing upwards in this room there is no more loot at least from what I’ve seen but we do have an exit and a bridge over to the other part of the structure which is pretty much identical to the

Other one that we saw except this time the bridge and this is organized a lava area is out in the open take a look at that view this is so with so cool the devs have really outdone themselves with the structures here I love them they’re

Amazing that’s a lot of people ins what are you guys doing down there are you trapped you should probably get out of there anyways as you can see here lots of maze-like tunnels winding down this structure I wasn’t able to find any chests down and the lower part of the

Structure but in the top part of the structure oh boy I was definitely able to find some loot chests so and this room on this side we have this chest right here with soul speed one and some nether right scrap very very good and then over in this chest we have this

Loot right here not the best but the spectral arrows are cool climbing out of this room we could go upwards and explore the structure more or we could flip into spectator and fly over to the other side that is equal with this room and check out this loot chest right here

This one is a little bit bigger two more pig step music discs for our collection pretty nice back in the spectator mode we can fly up and see that the structure continues upwards and there are some gold blocks on it as well if you’re looking for gold but in terms of loot I

Believe that is pretty much it for this bastion so if you were going to check out any bastions from today’s video I would check out the third one because you have that gigantic bastion right there you have the other really cool one right over there and then of course you

Have this ruined portal as well I mean to me this is the survival based location I mean you build the base over here you have the bash in the background maybe even a set of base up in between these things or maybe even take over the

Bastion and make that your base Wow all of those options sound amazing this location is crazy cool and I found the seed on my own at random which I was pretty hyped about too I mean this doesn’t get much better than this but elites I think that is going to be all

That we have time for today if you enjoyed this one exploration video let me know by dropping a like and subscribing and if you haven’t subscribed yet if you found a really cool seed that you think I should see feel free to drop that down in the

Description with a little bit of a description or just tweet it at me with some screenshots my twitter is linked down below this video in the description today I’d like to big shout out my guy dire arctic wolf thank you very much for the support again thank you all for
