Mumbo Jumbo – Hermitcraft 9: Episode 5 – FIRST DEFENCES

Oh my goodness it’s me and i’m on the hermitcraft server and i’m looking handsome as ever the sky is blue the sun is out the chickens are laying and my friendly neighborhood grian has built probably one of the coolest nether portals i’ve ever seen in my life i mean this is

This is beyond awesome this is seriously seriously cool i mean all of green’s base is is cool but this this is something else this is seriously seriously this is like a work of art it’s a shape that i don’t think i’ve really seen very much in minecraft you know it’s a really

It’s just satisfying to look at actually on the topic of green i can’t even notice there’s a pair of signs here mumbo this is the current center read other sign okay over here there’s another sign this should be the center so our bases align nicely all right so basically i’ve done my

Entire plan just like six blocks or maybe 10 blocks too far to the left so i need to move this entire plan i guess that this far over i mean that seems doable that seems absolutely fine in fact i actually know why i built it further

Over this way like this seems like more of a pain in the backside this seems this seems fine how many blocks away from the center am i it’s one two three four five six seven eight nine okay so i need to move wait i’ve lost count do i count the

Block that this is on or do i just do the gap if i’m if i’m moving things oh goodness gracious i have an a level of maths and physics and i still don’t know the answer to this question how do i translate minecraft build how do i do it

I had a place on a computer science course at university but i didn’t go to it so i could pursue youtube and this is what’s happened to my brain after doing some serious serious brain work you know my two brain cells almost caught fire i’ve deduced that this is the correct edge

The new correct edge of my vault and after yet more seismic brain activity i’ve deduced that this is the other side of the vault and i’ve got it wrong how did i get it wrong what has happened here i’m just going to try my best not

To think about it and just just put another line of blocks in and pretend that never happened so my new vault location is all worked out it’s either eight blocks or nine blocks or ten blocks further away from where it was previously i’m still not 100 certain but

All i know is it is now nicely aligned with grian’s wonderful base so now it is time to start work on the vault now because this vault now needs to be super secure because green is going to be actively trying to break in every two

Weeks i’ve come up with a few ideas of how we can make this cool first idea is a border wall with a lava moat standard safe house activities in fact let’s go look at a safe house okay this one is pretty cool but i don’t think it’s quite

Perfect and this one just exploded as i logged in but i must admit i do quite like the wall design the deep slate and the oh yeah that’s another right isn’t it even as the richest hermit that might be a tiny bit expensive this one also walks

As well which is cool it’s very very cool but i don’t think that’s going to be useful for my very static base unless no i’m not even going to allow myself to think about that i have however been thinking about walls for the best part of two hours now and gradually i’m

Making progress on what i want my outer wall to look like it looks impassable but one thing that i don’t often have to think about when designing these walls is i also need it to look good from the back and that’s kind of challenging i’m really struggling here but after a

Lot more work i think i’ve managed to get myself to a place where i’m actually happy with it the only thing is this is quite flat this ah see that’s their stairs and they’re facing the opposite way so i can’t get any extra texture in there i

Did think about using some trapdoors but i already have trap doors going along like that i don’t know if that will look particularly good the fence posts don’t look terrible i mean i could potentially do something like that that’s i actually quite like that i think um i

Don’t know i’m not sure i think for the time being i’m happy with this maybe it will be subject to change potentially maybe i don’t know but i like the way that this looks to me though the important thing is the exterior and this looks awesome this looks evil it looks

Fantastic and i’ve just done the maths and just by chance because i definitely did not plan this i mean you saw my maths ability earlier on it it’s not my forte it measures up perfectly so we’re going to have five five segments for each side of the wall

Which i’m just starting to realize there’s a lot of deep slate and also quite a lot of those logs it’s an awful lot of warp blogs i guess it’s time to get back on the hermitcraft server i hope you enjoyed that little insight into the planning process by the way

It’s not something that i actually tend to share particularly the working things out in the creative testing world but you know i thought i’d try something new today why am i getting damaged i only have 32 rockets exploring the nether could be a bad idea this is absolutely very precarious

There are lots of elements of this that are incredibly precarious it’s a bad time to be a thumb shifter i can tell you that now i think it’s actually always a bad time to be thumb shifter to be honest with you it’s never good having done extensive research on

The topic i can confirm that gathering large quantities of warped stems is by far the most frustrating type of wood to gather in minecraft why are these so beautiful but after spending just over an hour in this hellish landscape i’ve managed to get nine stacks which hopefully is enough and all the other

Resources are now gathered but doc has just said that he’s running the world eater and i’m dropping everything so i can go and watch this thing oh my goodness this is ridiculous oh my goodness this is completely ridiculous how is the server even keeping up with this

Oh i should probably shouldn’t fly too close to those i don’t want to break anything this is nuts this is so awesome dude how long has this been running level now um i think in total maybe five hours or so wow i think and five six hours i stopped

It ever so often right here but it doesn’t do produce server like much also no it’s just like several times if you if you if you fly underneath it it just it does become like a tiny bit like stuttery and i might i’m stuttering a

Little bit and i’ve got like a bunch of ghost blocks but other than that it’s all good yeah yeah i mean it’s kind of it’s not really ghost blocks it’s like graphical glitches yeah just so much going on in the graphic engine can’t keep up but

Here come down with me we can land behind it yeah is this why this is so cool yeah just follow me ah so are these water clearers as well yeah man oh my goodness oops i fell in the hole yeah now we reached water level right and now now

The cool part starts where we actually start to really push out the water that is so so cool and is that is that a fairly new invention in the world of world eaters or is that always the case because i always remember you would have to like

Follow them and get rid of oh no i guess not i guess there always was the water remover it’s the obsidian isn’t it that’s like that’s frustrating it’s still a problem yeah but the cool thing about this design right you see all the sweepers are small sequential things it’s always

The same machine yep yep yep what happens if you run into obsidian the machine has a huge and gate it always checks hey are all sweepers here yep and if not it waits until you you know go there wherever the sweeper got stuck at obsidian clear it send the sweeper

Further on moving and boom and then it reassembles and keeps on going so we don’t really have stress you know running after obsidian that’s why that’s what i remember yeah man this is ridiculous there will be a lot of obsidian [ __ ] yeah this is so so cool and like how

How long how many hours does this need to run before you start getting into like the deep slate realm and everything like that yeah i think another five six hours easy really i would assume you had to get all the way down 14 hours that’s not even that long

No it’s not bad at all i mean nowhere close to you know if you start digging this i mean yeah so we will see you know i’ll i guess it’ll be a little bit slow because i will try to get the diamond so you know

I let it run back and forth one or twice yeah then i’ll stop it again and then really look for diamonds yeah yeah so it’s going to be a bit slower but if you just let it run you know and don’t care yeah i think 12 to 14 hours all the

Way down wow so you’re really coming for my title as the richest hermit then you are i i’m in trouble well [Laughter] do you want to hear a number not well go for it go for it so we did some analysis of the terrain in theory there’s about 20 000 diamond

Doors here right okay so i’ll still be the richest hermit that’s good all right cool yeah so yeah no worries that’s ridiculous that is so so cool this is the this is absolutely insane this is so so crazy oh man as a thoughtful arrested guy like you this is just satisfying yeah it’s

Ridiculously satisfying well i’m i’m gonna i’m gonna pop back over to this area every now and again because my base isn’t too far away so i’ll be able to i’ll be able to like see it it gradually progress well that was bonkers i kind of regret going over there and looking at

It because now now i’m gonna have to go here and now i’m gonna have to talk to you about how exciting this wall is i mean i’m excited by the walls don’t get me wrong really like my wall i think it’s a lovely design but we’ve just seen something that’s literally eating the

World it’s eating the world in front of us and i’m building a wall a silly little wall a lovely wall a beautiful wall a really nice little wall i shouldn’t beat myself up wall wall i appreciate you i really do so the bottom area of this lovely little wall has now

Been put in place and this is effectively a template this tells me where everything is so i don’t have to do any measurements or work anything out because i know that when there’s a strip of three blocks that’s going to be the little stripped stairs with the iron

Bars and everything and then these sections here are for the stripped logs and then the fence posts that’s where those bits go and the whole design of this thing is repeating is essentially modular i think there’s if my maths is correct there would be 20 20 of those kind of

Modules of the wall that i installed going around the entire thing which i’m realizing now is quite a lot but regardless hopefully i have all of the resources on me already so it shouldn’t be too tricky you know what i was going to build this module by module but it

Seems like it might be easier at least at this point in time to build it layer by layer maybe i don’t know i’m not very good at this sort of thing one thing’s for sure though i have now achieved a chest high wall and if i were to rate the

Possibility of walls chest high wall there’s no chance so already my possessions are pretty safe but i’m gradually adding in extra things and now i’m doing some kind of weird hybrid method i don’t even know what i’m doing at this point in time i don’t know what

The efficient way to construct this sort of thing is but you know this seems to be working for me i think maybe i do quite like this method though this method is really really fun it’s really satisfying watching this wall gradually come together bit by bit in a strange

Sort of segmented way for example now we have all of the blocks that will surround the little slices of stairs of warped stem blocks i’m not sure that was actually a sentence to be honest regardless the entire front elements the actual black stone section of this build

Is now all constructed we’ve got one vertical strip of the wall in place and i guess now i can turn around and actually see what this looks like from afar it looks ridiculously cool this looks so so cool already what enough i was not expecting it to look this good

That looks seriously cool doesn’t it am i the only one that thinks that looks ridiculously cool that looks way cooler than i was ever expecting it to look and i i’m actually a bit lost for words here this is wicked this is seriously good you know in my

Time between hermitcraft seasons and my time off i’ve forgotten how fun it is to build something that looks cool this looks seriously cool i just hit my mug across my desk now i’ve got to clean it up but great my harmonica got wet my harmonic is completely soaked damp

Instruments aside i’m gradually tracking along with this build adding in all of the extra elements now i’m adding the stairs that combine our iron bars and everything together and it is looking really very nice indeed and now i’m working on the back side of the walls so

Pretty much all of the front side is done now it’s time to start adding in the back details i guess there is one more front facing element which is all of the stripped warped stems that i need to place in but once that’s done the actual exterior of the wall will be

Finished and i’ll be able to see what the end product is actually going to look like this is ridiculously satisfying and this looks ridiculously cool it looks so good i’m very happy we’re getting to the final stages now this really is the home straight at this point in time i’ve essentially done all

Of the details now the final thing that i need to add in i believe is the final thing is the trap doors on the back and then the whole project should be completed i haven’t looked at the outside of this thing for about an hour

And a half maybe even two hours so i i can’t wait i’m removing this red barrier so i’m going to see it in its fullest form for the first time a whole day has been spent building this wall and designing this wall so let’s have a look i’m going to savor this moment

I’m going to savor this moment it is awesome this is an awesome wall this might be the best wall i’ve ever built i think this might just be my best wall yeah i don’t think i’ve ever constructed a wall better than this look how cool it is it’s cool from every angle

Oh this is a cool wall can we all agree that this is just the best this is a great wall honestly am i in china because this is the great wall it’s such a stupid joke oh it is a good wall though it’s a really good this is a really good wall i’m

Really happy with this so as i say i have spent all day on this but there is a tiny bit more work that i need to do i just want to do a little bit of terraforming so i can connect up our hillside to it and also i need to remove

The hillside on the other side so everything matches up properly but i’m pretty pooped so i think i’m going to afk at my slime farm overnight and i’ll catch you all in the morning the big question is do we have any slime balls you know i have high hopes i have

Incredibly high hopes and i don’t know why and no no no no no and no we did get a raid banner though that’s arguably more impressive i tell you what else is impressive look how far the world eater has gone goodness gracious me it has actually eaten the world this is ridiculous

This is completely ridiculous oh it’s actually running at this point in time goodness gracious me i love this thing but i i need to get away from it because that much tnt scares me a little bit i don’t actually have that many father work rockets imagine if i accidentally

Just ended up down there and got stuck and she got carpet bombed it would be a real issue given what we’ve just witnessed what i have to do now does seem a little bit unexciting i have to have to gather up some dirt so while a world eater literally destroys probably

Thousands of blocks per second behind me i am just i’m gradually spooning my way through this grass here you know as they say comparison is the thief of joy and i am enjoying myself right now i shouldn’t compare myself to this this kind of hard not to isn’t it so

After doing my own little world eating i now have a decent amount of dirt which i can start chucking around the bottom of this thing and oh my goodness it has been a while since i’ve terraformed anything this this could go badly i can already feel

That this could go badly is this good i feel like this is good yeah it looks quite natural it fits in with the environment at this point in time i’m doing very functional terraforming i’m not doing anything stylistic or anything like that that can wait so i would say

The fact that when that goes to grass i probably won’t be able to tell the difference between the terraform bit and the unterraform bit i’d say that’s a good sign the next part of the process has been rounding off this hill right here which actually was a gigantic pain

In the backside but i think it’s okay i mean needs to it still feels like it needs a little bit of tidying up still feels like there’s some things that aren’t quite that minecrafty but it works especially when looked at from a slight distance once again this looks

Fairly natural so with the two easy bits all completed now it’s time for the one that i’m kind of scared of you see pushing my base over by the number of blocks required for green which i’m still not sure how many blocks that was has meant my border wall is now quite

Far off the edge of the cliff and like this is getting to the stage now where i don’t know we’re in weird territory we’re kind of in strange territory when it comes to terraforming maybe i could mimic what’s going on over here but even then yep there are some bits

Look there’s bits here where there’s like three block high areas of dirt maybe we just do something like that unless this has been terraformed what if someone’s gone over here and terraformed this and then i’m copying terraforming well if that has been terraformed they’ve done a good job because it does

Look fairly natural so i imagine if i mimic this it should look okay i’m going to take a really stupid technique on this one i’m not going to look at it for the entire time i’m just going to build how i feel it should be built in my heart

And then we’ll see what mess gets made by the end of this is this the stupidest way to terraform this might be the stupidest way to terraform but i’m a stupid guy and let’s be honest terraforming’s really boring to watch so if it looks really stupid then at least

That’s kind of exciting i’m around about halfway done on this stretch and things are feeling good or bad honestly i can’t tell at this point in time and now i’m fully done so i guess i can take a look at this thing in all of his glory and i am both

Excited and nervous but mainly nervous that is actually not bad you know what that is not bad that is actually not that bad i mean it’s a little bit like there’s some noise in there i would describe that as noise but it is not bad for a complete [ __ ]

With only two brain cells i’ve actually managed to make something that kind of looks like minecraft terrain and i even forgot that i had done that so that’s that’s been successful but this one back here this is good going this is seriously good going i i’ve missed the

Spot i’ve actually just remembered i wanted to extend down these blocks i’m curious i’m curious as to how this would look if i add like a tiny tiny tiny bit of variation into the bottom of the build let’s see how does this look i am now oh does that look better or worse

Or does it look worse because there’s only one of them i feel like there might need to be like one more little bit of it and then it will work well yeah i think that’s done well i think that has done well i think that has worked oh i gotta say i’m

Absolutely chuffed to bits with the great wall project this has gone incredibly incredibly well this is like the perfect little compound for our incredibly secure vaults to sit inside of and that is a project that i’m very very excited to start working on you know i really need to start working on

It soon because i’m running out of space for all of my diamonds in the little vault that we’ve got you know the tiny bowl i’ve tried everything you know i’ve got chests with shulker boxes of diamonds on the inside of this thing and still it’s just it’s not quite enough

Space so i’m gonna have to move things over to to the this looks interesting is this oh well this could be fun and the game ends pretty soon i okay i need to go do this right now i don’t know if i’m cut out for this game because i can’t seem

To get inside how am i meant to get inside this place okay payment going in elytra removed i can already feel this is going to be a huge success so i get one point for going through these two points for going through these easy all right three two one i’m jumping

Oh my goodness this is actually harder than i expected oh you actually oh does that count am i on two points am i allowed to touch them i want three points i feel like i’m failing everything that’s four points can i get this one i mean that’s gotta count right six points

Seven points eight points nine points ten points eleven points I mean i would say that i successfully landed that and i would say i did a successfully good job so i have reviewed the footage and i believe i have 10 points although i’m not 100 certain which makes me one of the worst well i think it’s safe to say i nailed that

Absolutely nailed it it’s like golf isn’t it lois scores the best yeah i’m gonna go with that and on that note it’s time to end i hope that you enjoyed this hermitcraft episode and i’ll catch you in the next one see ya
