Exploring the Mines in Minecraft Hardcore
Hello and welcome to another video inside my Hardcore World. This is the second episode of my hardcore series. In the last episode, we survived our first couple of nights and just got some nice resources and found this village where I was able to, like, get this whole iron chestplate, iron helmet, and a whole bunch of good stuff right now. And right now I am going to prepare to go mining in this ravine.
Preparing for the Mining Expedition
First of all, as you may have noticed, I have a lot of stuff in my inventory. I have no more space in there. So I should probably empty it out in like one of these houses, maybe in like, the top of this tower. I don’t trust the goats. It’s unsettling to me. I think here would be a good place for me to put my stuff. What was that? Is that the goat?
I think that goat is trying to charge at the Iron Golem. I also think I might have heard a screaming goat somewhere. You can get horns from those, but I don’t. I don’t know how strong goats are. They’re pretty new to the game. Okay, So I don’t need a lot of the stuff. I probably should just cook up some more food while I do this. Raw beef pumpkin. I’m just dumping all this stuff that is pretty useful in general, but not as not the most important thing for me to have right now. Going to put this crafting table here. Probably turn a bunch of this hay into bread. That’s so much gonna make more than a stack right now. Okay, there we go. Then the rest of this can turn back into hay bales, although that’s a lot of the extra two wheat there. In that case we have all the steak that’s being cooked, and we’ll have all the bread that’s been made. I have four furnaces on me going to, like, organize my inventory a little bit. I don’t need that wooden pickaxe. Probably use the dirt. I’m going to also make myself a shield, because that is a very useful thing to have. It can help you protect you from the projectiles or any damage, really. Okay. And before going to the mines, I will also need to get some more wood because I am pretty low on that. Grab one of these furnaces so that I can-actually all the furnaces it’s not like they-like they stack so I can smelt iron as I am as I’m going. I’m not sure What time of the day it is right now. Okay. The sun’s kind of going down, which should be fine. If needed, I can. If needed, I can sleep. I’m taking my bed with me. And I’m also going to the mines anyways, So, actually more torches. I can make more torches once I get more wood. I may be sleeping before I go into the mines. Nice thing about these houses is that they’re built with. Wooden logs at the corners. So wood is just right here. Yeah, I think I’m going to, like, wait until it becomes night and then just sleep and I won’t deal with the whole, like, all those monsters spawning while I’m, like, I’m right there Stealing this person’s bed for tonight. It’s a good thing they aren’t here, So they don’t have to be bugged by it. It rained for a second. It rained overnight while I was sleeping. Wonderful. I – It was nice to listen to the rain sounds while. while I doze off okay. I know. I looked down here and saw iron. Yeah. Okay. A bit of iron here. I want to be very careful. I’m worried about going too far down there because it’s very dark. I am not. I’m not the most – I don’t have the strongest equipment right now. Even with strong equipment, too many monsters can be a bit difficult to deal with. All this coal will be very useful for smelting more stuff and making more torches. I can make more torches right now because I had all that wood a lot of sticks and I’ll make up to like a stack of torches. Is that a stack? It’s a little bit more than the stack, But I will definitely need all those either in this mine trip or in future mining trips or just lighting things up in general. I don’t want to take too many chances with with this hardcore is, as you might guess, the hardest difficulty. I have so much coal, not enough More! Okay. I’m going to place torches as I go to both light up the area and also so I can see things, but also so that monsters don’t spawn. There’s copper there, but that’s not incredibly useful to me. And it’s so common. Is that is that an emerald? Did I just look at that Well that’s. That’s highly unexpected. I’m surprised I’m finding Emerald before I find, like, diamonds or redstone or gold. I don’t think any of those villagers will take a single emerald as a trade. That’s not villager economics. That’s not very stonks of them. That is really funny. Also I crafted another stone pickaxe. I know I have an iron one in my inventory, but I want to make sure that I can save that for the for any like ores and stuff. And I think that I spotted a Creeper down there I think which I am a little worried about because the creepers are very explodey. There it is. There it is. I don’t need that much coal right now, I can come back for this later. I also need to be careful of these stalagmites These are the stalagmites right? I think these are stalagmites and stalactites depending on the If they’re coming from the floor or from the ceiling of cave. goodness me. Hi okay if I come down and knock them back. We got this. He might just be stuck. it’s not stuck. It’s not stuck. And that makes me very unsettled. I want to just kill the creeper If I turn away It’s just going to, like, find a whole path to where I am. Okay. Okay. And there’s nothing No other mobs around. Oh gosh. I didn’t realize they could climb these. Oh goodness. That gave me quite a scare. It’s like placing a torch every three blocks. I kind of want to get that gunpowder wherever it went Where’d it go? I think it Did it go down? I think I got it. Oh gosh. Where is that coming from? Oh goodness. I am very much on edge right now. Ok, I don’t think the skeleton sees me anymore. Did I get the gunpowder? No, I didn’t. Oh my. gosh. Oh gosh. This is a risky place to be, Going to make myself a little bit of a staircase here, and I’m going to place a furnace over here to smelt some of this iron because I- Now combine with these two, I can make six. Yeah, six iron to make leggings, which is the last piece. That was the last armor slot that I’m missing. Especially going to this cave I might need it. But that that skeleton and creeper really have had me worried there Okay, I’ll break the furnace, Put down a crafting table and-oh I miscounted that okay, I also need to make sure I don’t fall on one of these things. Yeah. Give me a second. All right, I’m back. Sorry I had to. I had to take care of something real quick. Anyways, back to this cave, And I already see a creeper right there to greet us. It doesn’t see me yet – oh Skeleton Where’d that skeleton go? Oh it went back there. You know what I might want to go back to the surface and try to figure out a different strategy for this. I don’t want to. If this was like survival mode, I’d I’d be riskier than I don’t want my series to end at episode two. okay. Oh goodness. And now it’s becoming dark out again We can probably get back up here before it becomes fully dark. Alright It is right at sunset right now. Alright Run, run, run to the tower. Okay, There we go. And I’ll place down this- Did I hear something? I don’t know. There is a screaming goat! It sounds so silly. I might be able to, like, get the get the horn from it. I don’t know. It just. It sounds silly. Is it that one? It’s one of those two I think. I’m just worried about like being launched up into the air because I’m. It looks – they they’re so funny. I didn’t realize until last episode that they leap like that. I don’t think that they’re going anywhere. So we can I can wait until I get like, proper leggings. I’m wondering if there’s like a small cave around the area that I can go to and get resources from Ooo, like over here. I wouldn’t call this small, just it’s out in the open. I can see the sun. Any undead mobs will be killed. just lagged for a second there Okay. All right. okay. okay. Nothing back there. Glad I didn’t went down that other cave. I feel like this is a much better option. I should probably make myself a shovel. Okay, There we go. All right, give me another second. Okay, I’m back. And now that I have my shovel, I can dig up dirt much more quickly. Oh goodness. Oh boy. Where is that skeleton. Is it downwards? Where? Well that’s an enderman. I don’t want to anger the enderman. Where did the skeleton shoot me from? I’m so confused. I’m worried about this dark cave section here. That’s why Okay. Okay. Ooo, iron. Nice. Okay, now I have the iron for the leggings. okay. Furnace. Well, I don’t need two furnaces right now. Going to light some torches along this path here just to see if I can find anything else. It’s copper over there- Okay? It’s good to know that I can. I can survive a creeper explosion. That was a surprising way to find out. Okay. Any more surprises in store for me right now? Oh my I thought I heard another creeper sound Okay. There we go. full armor Next I’ll want to get those iron boots. But like now, as you see, we have seven bars of armor, so that’s good. Makes me feel a bit better creeper’s still put me a little bit on edge, but I have just tested out how strong we are against creepers I thought I saw a skeleton Again, we shouldn’t be taking chances because you never know what might happen or if, like things might happen in succession But okay, we’re pretty good. I’m gathering some of this coal so I can make more torches as needed. I think my goal for this video Is to get full iron armor so that way we are have a good amount of stuff for -purple? I might just be seeing things I heard like a pig or something above ground. Another emerald block. What? That’s so weird. Maybe they’re more common in whatever biome I’m in Because I know that the ore drops can vary from biome to biome like I think gold is more common in those like badland biomes. I think. And that’s enough iron for iron boots. So I’ll get my crafting table out and ready. We have this and the other emerald, with this and the other emerald we have an entire two emeralds that we can do absolutely nothing with because trades never get that low. But we’ll soon at some point get even more emeralds and then we’ll use that towards part of the trade. I thought – I forgot. I feel like this is a new feature of like, being able just switch like that. I definitely know it’s a new feature that you can now switch your chestplate and elytra by pressing right click or whatever your use button is. with the chestplate or elytra in hand So you can just like press like right click and just go like switch like as easy as that. Okay. I completed my main goal, but I want to continue and, oh, I’m going to with this last bit of iron I have I’m going to make myself a bucket so I can make myself A bucket of water because buckets of water are very useful in like life or just death situations like you use them to catch yourself when you’re falling if you end up getting launched. And you can also use them like against lava, if you fall in lava. Feel like I just heard a zombie. I may have also heard the gravel. maybe it was the spider. Did I get anything? I didn’t get anything from that spider. Okay, that’s fine. I did hear a zombie. A whole infestation. It’s a zombie spawner. That’s why there was a whole infestation. Okay. Torches in the area, torch on the spawner. I have a saddle now, horse armor, beetroot seeds nice. oh. I got an extra bucket. I’ll need the extra bucket eventually. that’s a that’s a lot of stuff. My inventory is almost full. That was a good find. I’ll probably go back to the surface once I get a full inventory of stuff And it is turning to night on the outside. Might actually be helpful for me to sleep right now just to avoid having to deal with like creepers coming back up to the surface or witches witches would be a bit of a pain to deal with right now Okay. I kind of forgot what I was doing there. I keep on getting a bit distracted. okay. Oh here. This lines up with the other thing I dug into. that’s another monster spawner over there, look at that! There’s so many, like, monster spotters and the Emerald blocks. I don’t feel like there are. Are they usually this common? I don’t feel like they usually are. One problem with this one, though is that if it’s skeletons I may get shot. Okay, I got this. I got this. I got this. I got this. Torch. That was an epic battle What type was it? Oh it was a skeleton. It’s a good thing they didn’t spawn It’s a good thinng I slept, actually, that probably saved me there. that’s very useful. I’m going to keep that in my hotbar. I now like am running out of space. For stuff. Okay. Wait, an extra piece of bread. So if I eat this piece of bread and then go in and grab that, there we go! That works perfectly. I was about to walk off that edge. Okay, well that’s I’d say I that was a pretty successful mining trip and I have four extra pieces of iron. Where’s the village? Ok, there’s the village. It would have been funny if I lost track of where that was. All right. And once I get once I find them, armor trims are in the game now. Okay, that’s a mule. I thought it was a pillager for a second. But once I find armor trims, I can add them to my armor and I can look really cool. Okay, Now to just dump everything into this chest. Oh wait, those can stack? okay, I. I have so much stuff in here, and honestly I want to go to the cherry biome I still want to. I just don’t know how I’m going to move everything I may need to like. What I’ll probably do actually, is I think the goat’s still out here somewhere. Is it one of those two? I don’t know if it’s one of those two. Does it have a special animation that plays? Oh yeah I have plenty of materials to make more torches. There’s so many- Baby Zombie I was a bit a bit unsettling seeing how babies zombies have a bit of a track record of breaking hardcore, of making people lose their hardcore worlds. If you were to ask Philza all right, I want to get a I want to get water for this bucket So that I can be prepared for challenges. And there’s a source of water right there. And the source of lava right there, too, which is what I don’t want to get too close to. that is powdered snow and I don’t have my snow boots on. There we go. Water. Okay. Now I have, I have some good stuff now. And this golden apple can be very handy for when I decide to well not decide if I come if I am in a situation where I need to get more health really quickly, might be able help me out in a pinch. It’s a weird like little cave generation type thing here makes me like a little nervous because I feel like there could be a monster in any one of those corners. I do think I might have done the goat thing wrong. I feel like they need to like, ram their heads into something. But it’s okay. I I’ll, I’ll get like a horn at some point and then I can make the little like, sounds that they make. What was that? Oh that was the iron golem. Okay. I should probably change this back to the iron boots for protection and, yeah no, I feel like I feel like I got a good deal of things done. I think in the next episode I will work on getting some diamonds so that I am even more, I mean, an even better set for the future. Also, there is a little idea that I came up with Involving a book, but I want to save that for the next episode. So in the next episode we will. I will show you what the new book is about and I will also work on getting some more diamonds. So stay tuned for the next episode. Bye!!!
