SHIELD BANNERS, ENCHANTS, + USES! | The Minecraft Guide – Tutorial Lets Play (Ep. 106)

Before we do anything i’d like to say that i don’t condone any of the actions taken in today’s video that happen none of them Good day gamers welcome back to the minecraft guide i can’t even fake it today’s episode is all about shields i can’t even fake it welcome back if you enjoy the video i’d like to ask you a big favor leave a like it helps oh boy that’s right you heard it here

First today’s god episode is all about the shield finally the shield it’s been a long time 106 episodes in i’ve never made a shield in this entire world not today thank you you got that right definitely not today in today’s episode we’re going to run through the shield basics and then

Actually uh use the shield yeah it’s going to be query easy wild stuff here all right well i guess we might as well craft a shield now so to grab the shield we’re gonna need jungle planks and i i think iron ingots i i legit never really craft shields yeah yeah

Right there that is gonna be the recipe for the shield this is gonna be the very first shield of the world this is a big moment please don’t unsubscribe okay please there we go that’s a shield right here this is what it looks like

This is when you use it and this is how much view it blocks that’s amazing you can’t see anything i love it okay but in seriousness this right here is the shield uh huh if you crouch on java edition nothing happens meanwhile over here on the bedrock

Version of the guide world yeah it’s still looking really really fresh i haven’t done too much over here but over here on bedrock edition if we crouch with the shield in our offhand and the shield slot the shield activates which i have to admit that’s actually kind of cool i really

Like that functionality that’s a nice way to use the shield that’s cool it’s also going to work like this if you crouch with it in your main hand but it probably should go in your off hand so you can put like a sword in your main hand

Back over on java edition shielding the shield hand i crouch nothing happens shield in the main hand i crouch and nothing happens so yeah uh bedrock heads are better here for sure i love this whole crouching thing it’s like really really cool and then over here you

Actually have to press the use button to use it kind of a bummer now the shield is a combat related item of course i mean it’s a literal shield shields are going to help protect you from okay hold on the shield is a combat related item i mean it’s a

Literal shield if you use the shield while something is trying to attack you the attack is going to be blocked the shield has some limitations it will not block if it’s not like facing the thing that’s attacking you like check that out the shield’s not working it’s not doing anything it’s not good

But if i face the thing and that thing is within the front at 90 degrees then the attacks will be blocked check out the shield durability when the shield is attacked and it blocks something it’s going to lose a little bit of durability not good a minecraft shield

Is going to have 336 total durability check this out right now the shield has 76 total durability if we block one attack with the shield and then we get out of here the shield is now going to be moved down to 66 durability 10 durability one zombie block definitely worth it

For sure absolutely now the shield can be used to block a lot of things you’ll be able to block projectiles with this stuff up close attacks and even actually explosions with the shield too check this out creeper right there we blocked the whole explosion that’s not bad but there’s another creeper okay

We’re done we’re done we’re done let’s go ahead and sleep uh roll it over to the day daytime much better so yeah the shield is gonna be good for blocking all types of attacks up close projectiles explosions this guy you covered for a little while until it breaks sliding over to the

Minecraft wiki if you were curious about attacks that can be blocked with the shield to check this out this whole list right here it’s a long list but yeah these are all things that can be blocked by the shield so you can block a lot of things but there are some

Things that you can’t block too these things right here like a crossbar with piercing shield not good tnt redstone not good not gonna work the shield also isn’t going to work on guardians and the elder guardian like that beam attack the shield can’t block it the beam goes

Right through the shield because the shield is not good enough so on its own freshly crafted without any additional buffs the shield really isn’t going to be that good it’s not going to last for very long there is one way that you could actually buff the shield up a little bit though

Option number one is gonna be this one right here craft a new shield maybe use the shield a little bit maybe don’t and then combine it with the old shield and the shield will be repaired in the crafting table the repairing mechanic is gonna be just like

With any other repairing mechanic in the game same thing option number two is gonna be throw your shield on the ground that’s almost broken and craft a new shield just use the new shield but before you use the new shield there is definitely absolutely no doubt

Going to be one thing that you’re going to want to do to your shield before you do anything else with it hands down you’re going to want to head over to a crafting table with a banner and a shield and combine them put the banner on the shield

Only on java edition though yeah can’t lie this one’s actually pretty sweet so you can actually put banners or custom banners on shields and then the shield is going to look a little bit different which is pretty sweet you can also put the ominous banner the pillager banner on the shield

Which is even more sweet and definitely the move that we’re gonna make uh the banner is gonna look a little bit different on the shield though uh that goes for the ominous villager banner and your custom banner they just look different the resolution isn’t that’s good

So yeah make sure you keep that in mind okay yeah not actually that’s not the thing that you’re gonna want to do with your shield before you use it but you could do that with the shield before you use it but yep if you play on bedrock that’s not a possibility on bedrock

You’re just gonna have to deal with the plane shield that’s all you got like most other things in minecraft shields have enchantments but unfortunately the shield is not going to be one of those things that you can just go over to the enchantment table throw inside of it and enchant it if

You’re gonna put enchantments on your shield you’re gonna have to go through a little bit more trouble which is big sad moment so as of 1.16 there are three enchantments that you can actually get on your shield first things first the curse the curse of vanishing definitely not hard note

The curse of vanishing is gonna vanish your shield when you big rip with it so yep not good enchantment number two and three though far better way way more superior enchantment number two on breaking on breaking one two and three can be put on the shield which is pretty sweet

Definitely going for on breaking three here and then also mending sweet mandy that’s right today we finally get to go visit axel waddle again see how axe model’s been doing mending or on breaking three yeah that one all right so that wasn’t too bad it only took a couple books but we

Have one more chance let’s see if we can get something better here respiration two no way no way okay so this book is really good right here and this book is pretty good right here gonna take on breaking three from this book so if you want to put enchantments on

Your shield you’re gonna need your shield an enchanted book and an anvil so right here we’re gonna go with this that’s gonna put on breaking three on here uh for some reason we can see all of the banner recipes and then right down there at the bottom unbreaking three oh yes for sure

That’s my shield oh no i came all the way up here thinking i was putting like enchanted books up here and i’m literally just putting enchanted armor uh okay okay hide your enchanted books uh you know it’s a good day when you get to visit axel waddle it’s been so long since

We’ve seen axel waddle axel waddle how you doing you smell so good today mending we have a mending trade right here or we have amending trade right here decisions decisions do we want the one that costs one emerald or do we want the one that costs one emerald

Tough choice all right i think we’ll take this one right here bargain master thank you axel waddle keep your head up keep your head up everything is okay all right so that’s that we have mending all we need to do is find an anvil somewhere and put mending

On the anvil mending on the anvil there we go mission accomplished gamers alright so this shield right here is going to be the pinnacle of all shields we have a shield with a banner on it with on breaking three on it with mending on it as well that is shield progression right there

For you that’s the best shield in the game we’ve maxed out this shield is going to last a little bit longer and be able to be repaired which is pretty sweet it’s not going to actually block anything quicker better or like wider though uh minecraft doesn’t care about shields

Enough to actually give them cool enchantments all right so up front to the storage building here i actually have like a bunch of random shelter boxes sitting up here these are all shelter boxes with uh loot from pass raids like tons and tons of totem all over the place

This is actually hero the village stuff i was gonna put that somewhere special um yeah i really need to start sorting through this stuff so these aren’t just like sitting everywhere okay so we crafted a shield then we put a banner on the shield then we put enchantments on the banner shield

And a name too we’re pretty much good with the shield other than actually using the shield we still haven’t really used the shield and i definitely still haven’t gotten that shield advancement right there so yeah now it’s time to do that i was thinking about it

And i feel like it’s been a minute since i’ve taken on a raid so we’re gonna head back over to the town over here get it ready for a raid and then do that and use the shield in the raid ah this place again but there is one big problem uh we’re

Gonna use a shield in the raid which means i’m basically going to need to be carried like big time which means iron and golem before i do anything involving the bad omen or anything like that we’re gonna go ahead and replenish this village iron golem guards because they’re not

Exactly doing good they need help they took a beating last time another thing that i’d like to do before i actually take on this raid gotta come back and uh actually add a golem right there but another thing that i like to do before i

Take on this raid is clean up just a few of these trees some of these trees are just kind of in the way i’ve noticed the pillagers just get stuck on the trees and then i can’t find them and then the iron golems get to them first which isn’t a problem i appreciate

It it’s it’s nice but i’d like to be able to actually help out sometimes too so some of these trees particularly these ones over here in this little cluster they need to go away okay i cleaned the town up a little bit it’s looking a little bit better all

That i need to do is finish building an iron golem really quick and then go over to the outpost and get the bad omen effect also i have to figure out how to ditch these saplings wow that was that was pretty easy all right off to the outpost it should

Be like pretty much straight diagonally north this way what happened to these trees oh lava okay okay okay that makes sense oh the ride out pose where’s the banner guy where’s the banner guy any banner guys uh where’s the banner guy no none of you oh there you are there you

Are hey my guy hi my guy hey hey calm down calm down calm down it’ll be quick okay perfect got the banner too we’re out we’re done that’s all i needed to go away from the village okay yep over to this village home sweet home okay the start of a

Brand new raid let’s add this banner to the collection right there that’s good and then over here we’re gonna swap the elytra out for the chest plate i’m feeling the chest plate for sure and then shield and the off hand so first things first before we do

Anything with this right take out any of the pillagers i’m gonna try and get the shield advancement to get the shield advancement all i need to do is block a projectile hello guys hello hello no okay all i need to do is block a projectile with a shield do you have piercing

No you have piercing how about you oh right there right there we got the advancement oh this is amazing okay okay okay okay iron golem save one for me so we we have to participate in the raid but the golems are probably gonna have to carry me to be honest because i’m using

A shield but hey check this out we have no banner another banner over here that is sweet let’s add it to the collection all right wave raid 2 is oh oh oh here it is over here but hold on hold on hold on just you wait a second so check

This out i can block his attack that’s nice but my shield is going to be actually a stun like like disabled from the axe attack yeah i i didn’t get like the best shot of it there but yeah so axes can be blocked with a shield but

When an axe hits the shield the shield is actually disabled for five seconds it’s gonna have to refill and then once it refills you can actually like use it again it’s kind of cool night time night time night time any minute okay perfect alright so we have a

Ravager over there which is actually kind of interesting so check this out now that we have a shield the ravager is not a problem at all i could walk over here to the ravager hey ravager okay okay okay okay okay okay um you can block ravager attacks with shield alright well they’re down

To one raider left again i’m guessing it’s in a cave no okay maybe not that’s weird oh uh it happened again it happened again it happened again in the other episode it happened and then the raid wave like i couldn’t find him and it rolled over to the next wave

And that just happened again so wave uh four maybe maybe this is number three let’s see if we can find the axe guy again though where is the x-man um okay where are any of them maybe over here it definitely came from this way maybe this isn’t too good this isn’t too

Good oh they’re all over here the iron golems are just cleaning them up this time nicely done my guy nicely done but i’m almost out of iron actually so you’re gonna have to step it up a little bit where’s the last writer come on come on

You could do it all except for the last raider i can hear it somewhere oh there it is there it is there it is oh when it’s gone really man really come on get over it all right so two more banners over here that’s pretty cool

Next wave that’s gonna be over this way definitely yeah yeah you’re right there now uh if we can find the axe guy check this out oh oh oh okay okay thanks all right well they’re all over the place over here which is pretty crazy there’s an axe one okay you know what

I’m just gonna move actually i have the feeling that i should probably get out of there uh maybe i don’t charge into the group of pillagers iron guy is iron guys come on come on come on step it up step it up i’ll help you out a

Little bit okay i think the other one is sprinting on top of the hill oh there it is there it is oh it’s gone i don’t think i did anything and that’s that that whole wave i got a totem though i worked hard for this

Next wave is gonna be right over here oh this is perfect this is perfect this is the final time when i get to actually show you how the axe works look shield axe no okay fine that’s cool that’s okay never mind we’ll just take you out goodbye ghost guy no no no

No no the vexes are seriously like the worst part of the raid like like they do so much damage and they just fly after you and attack you the pillagers are the easiest part come on come on stop taking each other out come on you’re supposed to stop me goodbye

Goodbye vex says stop stop seriously and then the iron golems chase them too for some reason like leave the vex alone it’s just a ghost iron golem leave it alone it doesn’t matter all right this time it’s from over here somewhere let’s go back this way or

Maybe oh yeah yeah right up there on the hill okay okay this shouldn’t be too bad uh we got a ravager there’s the axe guy hit the shield it’s done it’s done for a minute and then it can attack you again it’s kind of dangerous yeah i spent the whole raid trying to

Show you how that works of course of course i did okay yeah two ravagers two ravagers at once two ravagers no no no no no okay okay one ravage you’re gone one ravager gone this is not good i repeat this is not good calling missing control golems go

Go get the ravager it’s attacking me it’s sending me flying and i don’t like it go gollum there’s a ghost man on top of the ravager too go uh gollums come on come on please i called you into i called you in like five times now you’re not a match for me

Not a mad for me my boys clean you up and the ghost too they’re all gone all i need to do is find two oh right there there’s one there’s two one sprinting around over there one’s right here drinking potions get out of here drinking potions instead of helping your

Fellow raiders you drunk a massacre happened over here on the street a massacre an absolute massacre no no two iron golems at least gone you’re gone as well though but the vexes the vexes make me nervous great victory this is amazing but a tragedy happened on my watch on

The main street of the town a tragedy happened i’m a monster it’s because of the shield the cool thing about these vexes is uh the fact that they’re not smart at all there’s a villager right there i’ve sent like three through the wall at the villager like the literal

Villager and they don’t care they just don’t care about the villager it’s it’s fine they would rather attack me that’s fine alright so raid loot let’s take a look we have four totem up and dying at least there might be more on the ground three saddles

A little bit of potion making supplies i assume this stuff right there is from the raid a crossbow six emeralds and poppies we got poppies somehow perhaps most importantly though the shield advancement right here completed finally completed i don’t know if this whole one is finished now maybe it is

I’m not too sure so if you use a shield you can block things if an axe hits the shield it’s going to be disabled for a little bit then you can block things again if something else hits the shield you can just keep blocking things as long as

Those things are in front of you shields are shields okay enough of that so unfortunately tragically no time for the hero the village farm today and said there’s gonna be a different uh village that i need to be the hero but before i do that i actually have to mend up this election

Because it’s not gonna make it like it’s getting kind of low and i have to go pretty far to get to this village so in the last episode we did a little bit of exploring we explored all the way up onto this map right here i on this map we found

A village or like like six villages to be honest the number of villages doesn’t matter at all what matters is the fact that i abandoned a dear friend a close friend a good friend all the way up at a random village that means nothing to me at all and that’s just not okay

That’s where i draw the line we have to go get that friend okay so there are so many villages on this map up here i don’t exactly remember which one but i’m pretty sure it was this one right over here this yeah yeah yeah right there right there one fish

One fish right here this is one fish one fish needs to come back home with us the problem here is we we can’t really fly well we can we can fly but we can’t really soar we need to move in small jumps so the cat can like keep up with me see that

That right there actually might have been too far i don’t know where the cat is ah this is not fun moving cats is not fun oh wait wait wait wait i heard a cat i i heard a cat somewhere i don’t know where but i definitely heard a cat there you are

One fish this way so basically what i’m saying here is i i think we’re gonna have to use like one rocket and basically just jump so like soar up a little bit then we land and we give it a second and if the cat is still loaded in which it should be

Maybe i went too far uh no i think i heard it the cat’s still loaded in it should be able to teleport over to me yep perfect perfect and then basically we just have to do it again over and over and over again it’s going to take a long time it’s not

Going to be very fun but it shouldn’t be too bad because the electro is fully healed up and i have like a stack and a half of rockets a bunch of rockets and leads to just in case i don’t think i’m really gonna need the lead but

I mean you never know like maybe they can’t get stuck on something i believe is just in case We are so close we are so close one fish one fish we’re okay okay cool cool perfect here we are back home the sweet berry farm oh it’s been so long we made it back this is amazing all in one piece this is perfect it couldn’t have been

Any easier it wasn’t that bad at all didn’t take too long so there is one final thing that i must do with this cat right now before we do anything else and that is a name tag two name tags left in here that is perfect we will only need one

Name tag where’s the cat i hear it oh he’s back there’s sleeping okay okay that’s cool brand new cat brand new name tag right here sir one fish this is perfect you will live right back here uh yes in the corner for now that is perfect comment of day episode 106. i always

Forget there are music in the background yeah so the music of the background the music of the background is the thing that i started doing a while it’s been a long time now and to kind of help fill the videos up i feel like it makes the video sound like more
