Hey what’s up everybody this is a follow-up to the video that i made yesterday the one where i showed and explained what the new best weapon is in minecraft dungeons as of the creeping winter dlc update this best weapon is different from any other best weapon that we’ve had And it is not the whirlwind axe or the fighters bindings if you have not watched that video then you have got to watch that one first because if you don’t watch the first part you’re not really going to know a lot of what i’m referencing to in this Video in part one is why i’m actually making this video so you have got to watch that first part if you plan on watching this one i will leave it in a card up above right now you can click on that watch that video and then return after again Make sure to watch through the whole thing because people not watching through the whole thing is a big reason as to why i have to make this video and also some other reasons as well and i’m gonna get into that now so in part one i said that the new best weapon in Minecraft dungeons is the pickaxe and i showed it off and i gave you a lot of tips as to how you can use it best what enchantments you want on it and such if you did watch part 1 there will be some things that i touch on again here but in more detail And then also i’m going to be touching on some other really important stuff as well as additionally comparing this weapon to the previous best weapons so the first thing that i want to clear up is that the diamond pickaxe is not as good as the regular pickaxe the base version Of the pickaxe is two times if not more better than the diamond pickaxe the reason being that for some reason with the creeping winter update mojing by accident i guess did not change the combo that the diamond pickaxe has so it is still two instead of the new combo that it Should have which is one only the pickaxe has a new combo of one this means that you literally activate swirling and shockwave two times less with the diamond pickaxe and that is an insane damage loss literally you do more than two times more damage with the pickaxe because you have to Consider that these enchantments are hitting in an area of effect so you are hitting a bunch of targets with each of these enchantments and if you are getting them activated two times less when you are looking at the damage that you will do against big hordes of mobs You are just losing a crazy amount of damage over the time of using the pickaxe while we’re talking about combos i also want to bring up that the pickaxe is very fast and yes there are other weapons that have one-hit combos like for example the hammers Or also the soul daggers but what you have to consider is that the pickaxe’s attack speed is significantly faster than those other one-hit combo weapons significantly faster you gain multiple times damage by using the pickaxe over any of those weapons and the reason why this is so good specifically now is because Of its reduction to a one hit combo before it was decent with the two hit combo but now the pickaxe has a combination of attacking extremely fast and having a one hit combo which means that with the pickaxe you are able to trigger combo activated enchantments More than any other weapon in the game by a substantial amount even more than the vine whip the vine whip is slower than the pickaxe so yes the vine whip does have a one hit combo but it also attacks much slower you can see that the pickaxe gets multiple attacks in While the vine whip is only able to get one attack in next i want to further compare the pickaxe to the whirlwind first thing i want to say is that the pickaxe has a faster attack speed than the whirlwind axe does it can attack about three times in The time that the whirlwind axe can attack twice and that’s important to note because that means that the pickaxe has a pretty similar dps just from the base weapon damage alone compared to the whirlwind axe but where the damage actually comes in with the pickaxe as i mentioned before Is its combo mixed with its really fast attack speed the whirlwind axe only activates its combos on every other hit the pickaxe activates them on every single hit so not only does the pickaxe attack faster but you are also activating your combo way way more with the pickaxe than you Would with the whirlwind axe and these two enchantments combined at tier three do about 3 600 damage in a large aoe radius and the whirlwind axe it combos every hit and also the shockwave enchantment that’s on it is only tier one so that’s giving you only about 800 Damage and then when you add swirling to that you get about 2 800 damage so when taking an average of how much damage you’re gonna do with the whirlwind axe for every five hits and this is also counting critical hit but not counting committed because that is Much harder to count and that could also be applied to the pickaxe so me not including this in the evaluation for the whirlwind axe is not going to make a huge effect as i’m also not counting a third enchantment for the pickaxe and this damage evaluation but basically with the whirlwind axe you Will be able to output about 23.5 k damage to a single target over five hits this is including combo enchantments critical hit and your base attack hits with the pickaxe you average 26.5 k damage per 5 hits and this is only evaluating single target damage just these numbers alone Do not give us an accurate representation of the dps of each weapon but what they do give us is a pretty good reference point another important thing to consider here is that the pickaxe does attack faster than the whirlwind axe does you get about three hits in with the pickaxe for Every two hits that you do with the whirlwind axe so although in the same amount of hits the damage is close you also have to keep in mind that you’ll be able to get five hits off quicker with the pickaxe and therefore you have more dps at that and also it’s important To consider the range that the weapons have when you are using swirling and shockwave these enchantments have a very very high range and so because of that you’ll be hitting more mobs per hit with the pickaxe both of these enchantments are tier 3 so they are doing as much Damage as they can with the whirlwind axe and double axes in general the damage that double axes do is mainly based around their base weapon damage with the cleave that they have and then you want to stack damage onto that with cowardice and an armor buff and so that’s why the Whirlwind axe is the favorite double axe because it just gives you a pretty good extra perk since you wouldn’t want shockwave as an enchantment to choose from in your enchantment slots but it is pretty nice to have as an additional perk and so since your shockwave enchantment is doing about two Times less damage when you are using the whirlwind axe you are going to be losing out on a lot of aoe damage in the long run and so to review this information the pickaxe attacks faster than the whirlwind axe does the pickaxe activates its combo on every single hit while the Whirlwind axe activates it on every other hit and then on top of that the shockwave enchantment on the whirlwind x is only tier one if you add all of these factors up the pickaxe does significantly more aoe damage because it does about 1700 single target damage on hit and then Additionally about 3 600 aoe damage in a large area per hit when you add those two up you get 50 300 damage on single targets and then also if you are just attacking aoe in general you also get that aoe damage yes the whirlwind axe has a cleave but It is just not as big as the two enchantments are so you’re not affecting as many enemies at a time so it takes more time to clear a big mop pack because yes you may defeat some mobs out of a mob pack thanks to your cleave damage that the Roland axe has but there will always be mobs left standing because they did not get hit by your whirlwind axe meanwhile the pickaxe does a very equal amount of damage and yes you can add committed and critical hit to your whirlwind axe and then you can also put a piece of armor On that gives you a damage bonus and put cowardice on but that’s all only affecting your actual base melee damage of the whirlwind axe it’s not affecting the enchantments so you will still only be doing 2800 damage of proper aoe damage and that is only on every other hit so it’s inconsistent With the pickaxe you do 5.3 k damage on every single hit guaranteed with the whirlwind axe there are some hits where you will literally only hit for the base damage of the melee weapon which is 2200 without buffs and then if you put cowardice and an armor buff on it that Will probably get to over 3 000. but again that’s missing the big radius and yes the whirlwind axe will be better for bosses because of committed because of critical hits and because of the high amount of damage that you were stacking on the base damage of the weapon but 95 of the time we are fighting mobs we only fight bosses for five percent of our total minecraft dungeons experience when we are farming for loot defeating mobs may be very very useful because if you’re farming for a common education road for example you need to fight mobs because Mobs have a very high drop chance for common items also often in levels especially with the new dlc levels there are points and levels where you have to fight mobs you can’t just skip to bosses right away to upgrade the merchants there are several different tasks that you may need to do Where you will need to fight mobs to do those tasks so yes if the only thing that you do in minecraft dungeons is just go straight to the boss and just defeat the boss and then the level then in that case yes you can use the world when actually the fighters bindings if You would like but that gain in time from that one boss fight is insignificant compared to the amount of time that you gain from defeating mobs faster because there are just so many that you save minutes defeating mobs while using the pickaxe instead of the whirlwind axe or the fighters binding I hope that that clears that point up because some people were still talking about the whirling axe being the best weapon but in fact the pickaxe is the best weapon the next thing that i want to talk about is the third enchantment slot for the pickaxe because Even though i said it in the previous video i still see some confusion surrounding the topic if you play minecraft dungeons normally and you mostly spend your time defeating mobs as they are the main type of enemy that fills up a dungeon and then you spend a little bit of time Defeating bosses then you definitely want to use gravity because it is going to help you really bunch up mobs from everywhere even if they’re behind you gravity will actually pull them in front of you and then they will start getting hit by your shockwave enchantments so in cases where you Wouldn’t have defeated certain mobs before with the gravity enchantment you now will a lot of the time and this is going to speed you up because you won’t be having to stop for maybe a second or a couple of seconds even to kind of defeat the mobs that surround you because they weren’t Getting hit by your shockwave enchantment properly or even your swirling enchantment properly now if you’re someone who really likes to fight bosses and you fight them a lot as i said before you can put committed on your weapon and that is going to boost your clear time for bosses so so Much because of those percentage damage increases stacking if you have a completely different play style where you enjoy just fighting bosses more and you don’t really do much else then you can go for committed also there can be still some options for example if you kind of play minecraft dungeons very laid back And you find yourself dying sometimes then maybe leeching can be good for you because that can just give you that kind of safety blanket of health after defeating every mob and that definitely will ensure survival but if you have a specific playstyle that you like to have then the other options that Are listed can work as well and any other options that suit your play style as well i hope that this video clears everything up i really went into detail with the pickaxe in this video and the comparisons that i made because i really wanted to showcase All of the thought that went into this and to everybody that watched through this video i really appreciate it my build guide is on the way i’m working on it in my opinion it is the best build as of the creeping winter dlc update so it’s up to date If you found this video useful and you enjoyed it leave a like subscribe to

Who would’ve thought… The best weapon in Minecraft Dungeons is a Pickaxe, and not the Diamond Pickaxe either, because the combo was only changed to 1 for the regular Pickaxe.
