wattles – HOW TO FIND NAME TAGS! | The Minecraft Guide – Tutorial Lets Play (Ep. 41)

Good morning gamers how you doing welcome back to the minecraft guide episode 41 the demon bird has moved again maybe just maybe for lucky the demon bird will move into the water and then sit in the water and you know what i’m saying but welcome back

A little bit of a problem that we need to address right off the bat today first off discussing big creatures half a live half dead now fully dead wandering around the base that’s the downside of an open-air nether portal like that one but the real problem so last episode

We did really well that’s not a problem at all no no no no no but you see what should be in this chest it’s a very very important ingredient for an iron farm um and it would be in this shasta or this one probably this one

Uh do you know what it is okay if you don’t know what it is i’m just gonna spoil it but take a guess okay okay you took a guess name tag we’re missing a name tag we need a name tag for an iron farm to keep the zombie inside of

The iron farm alive no no no no yes yes technically technically i can hear it already don’t bother putting it in the comments i know i could give an item my netherride sword maybe just rotten flash or something to a zombie and have it hold it and it would stay alive too

If the zombie could pick the item up but no no no i don’t do things that way no no we don’t do that so basically i need name tags which is a huge problem now yes we are geared up for the wither fight but i was kind of planning on

Getting the beacon sort of last i wanted to have all of the iron farm supplies ready to go so because we have a gigantic whopping lack of name tags today we’re going on a side quest we need more name tags and good thing for me this episode it’s all about getting name tags

But before we dive into that name tag action we have 39 levels which is a good number not a nice number but a good number if you know what i’m saying so what we’re gonna go ahead and do is actually try our hand at the enchanting game right off the bat

Just in case i mean i don’t anticipate anything bad happening to me today but we’re going to be down in the caves and the mine shafts and you know you never know so let’s go ahead and take a look at this big axe right here we’re looking

For efficiency five if we could get that we would be golden another thing that i could go for is another diamond axe that would be nice too so let’s go ahead and craft one of those uh then finally i feel like i’m forgetting another diamond tool

Must not be important diamond act so we have on breaking three right there or we had on breaking three on the pickaxe i’m kind of leaning towards this x let’s go ahead and see what’s up here uh eventually four that’s good that’s good look at this we combine this efficiency five fortune three

On breaking three and then i can easily throw mending on it yes please thank you now oh silk touch okay okay that’s a solid start maybe maybe we could get efficiency on it efficient oh that’s ah that hurts that hurts that hurts that hurts get rid of that immediately efficiency

Okay okay okay stay calm stay calm it’s happening it’s happening stay calm stay calm stay calm everybody i i’m the only one freaking out here all right well so they comes they come efficiency 4. okay okay that makes it cheaper to combine i love this okay check this out right here uh silk

Touch on breaking three efficiency 5 amending all we need to do is get that boyd another right oh no i forgot to do this i forgot to do this that’s expensive but we’re gonna have to do it the new name is silky it’s beautiful

Uh and then the oh ah i don’t like that oh okay okay well it’s okay we will recover we’re one level short we will recover and we will we will enchant this and rename it but for now you’ll wait there you wait right there the name tag is a

Very important item in minecraft why well of course because the name tag allows a lot more personalization when it comes to your animals over here the agent the agent hasn’t been making many moves lately of course rosie i always have rosie bring me presents at nighttime that’s perfect

And then axel waddle over here of course axel waddle name tags are great for customization but that’s not the only thing that they do you see name tags can also be used to keep things in your world so let’s say we have quite literally a zombie for our iron farm if

We don’t want that hostile mob to despawn then we’re going to need a name tag we put the name tag on the zombie and then it will never despawn it’ll live in our world forever which is exactly what we want you see by default hostile mobs and minecraft will eventually despawn things like

Villagers they won’t so technically i didn’t need to name axel waddle technically i didn’t need to name the cats that i have but i wanted to okay but hostile mobs will despawn if they’re not name tagged the game does things that way to keep things running smooth i mean imagine it

You have a bunch of zombies that spawn in your cave and then they just never do you spawn yup that would create a lot of lag so long story short name tags can be used to give things names and when you give a thing a name if it usually despawns

Then it won’t which is big brain now there are a handful of ways to get name tags in minecraft one of the ways that you could get your hands on a name tag involves a librarian villager but not this librarian villager not yet at least if we can manage to get axel

Waddle all the way to master level which is definitely the plan eventually not right now but that’s the plan then axel waddle should sell us a name tag for 20 m roads but remember we did cue our axle waddle so we should have a nice discount on that as well

I don’t know what it’ll bring the price down to haven’t seen it before but it would be cheaper than 20 emeralds if you think about it late game that’s not a problem at all because i mean the emeralds are pretty easy to farm get a couple villagers sell them like maybe

Crops or something get emeralds then go over to the other villager by the name tags but realistically it’s just not an option right now because i don’t have the farm set up to be able to grind this guy’s levels up i need more emeralds to start with

Then i could take these trades in here and bump this up but yep just not a reality right now option number two involves something that we actually haven’t used at all in fact i don’t think we’ve made well we’ve made one and then we combined

It with a warped fungus to make it a warp fungus on a stick option number two when it comes to name tags fishing now fishing was classically the way to go i mean realistically any time before minecraft 1.6 and you wanted name tags pretty easy build an afk fish farm things were super

Simple they were really compact afk at the thing overnight with a good fishing rod and then boom you’d come back with a couple name tags but afk fish farm said at least the old ones they don’t work anymore so getting name tags from fishing uh it’s probably not very efficient i mean

You’re gonna have to sit here and wait all right bob’s under boom we caught a fish that’s great it’s not a name tag uh it’s a fish yeah now there are some fishing rod enchantments that we could put on our fishing rod to maybe buff things up a little bit more but uh

Check the levels i use them all on other things so that’s not really realistically gonna be an option here fishing is one of those things it’s been a minecraft for a long long time like as long as i can remember but has remained pretty much the same fishing big time needs an update

So finally today’s method of getting name tags looting name tags are actually in a couple different loot tables in minecraft which loot tables well on java edition name tags can be found in dungeons mine shafts and woodland mansions on better bedrock edition things are expanded a little bit

On bedrock edition if you want to get a name tag look in a dungeon a mine shaft a woodland mansion or buried treasure buried treasury you know the stuff that you get led to from the shipwrecks can actually have name tags on bedrock edition big rip there that would have been

Amazing we’re on java that’s not gonna work our best bet is definitely going to be the mine shaft today we’re heading down into the mines so fortunately lucky for us we actually have a mine shaft really really close to home i think today that is going to be exactly where we start

When it comes to the name tag hunt if we go down here into the strip mine and then actually go right down over here and turn boom the mine shaft is really close now something happened a while ago that i honestly completely forgot about off camera i had come down into the

Mines and started mining things out and then i hit something that is quite remarkable definitely good for sure i marked the way approximately right over to this thing right there check that out that is the first spider spotter of this world which is pretty huge but uh

Today that spider’s monitor is not going to help us the goal is to pretty much okay okay okay stay calm stay home the goal is to run through this thing light it all up you know get rid of the dark spaces and look for these

Are we gonna get lucky in the first try this isn’t this this isn’t i don’t even know what to say anymore i don’t even know what to say anymore i literally no way okay all right well we have a name tag that job could be done i didn’t anticipate that being so quick

And easy um okay it’s all sevens in this world it’s literally all seven so technically we could hang up the hook here we could retire we could be done but no no no no i really i genuinely did not anticipate that working out like that

I was thinking that i would have to like mine through this thing like all episode long and hopefully maybe find like one name tag but now because we’re so early in the game we found a chess already we could maybe come out of this with more than one name tag

Which would be amazing because name tags are used for a lot of different things i mean i’m sure there’s going to be more builds in the future where i want to keep hostile mobs alive so uh or even name tag things like the dogs that i have

So we are going to keep mining through this mine shaft and hopefully before too long find another name tag but you see how relatively easy it could be if you get lucky if it’s all sevens if the energy is good the luck is good then you can find a nametag like right away

In a mineshaft and then boom you’d be done but let’s pretend that never happened okay we never found that name tag right off the bat we had to go through the mine shaft well then what would we do well um like i just said we’d go through

The mine shaft and that’s what we’re gonna do today poison spiders you can go away you can go away i’d love to turn this uh this spawner right here into a string farm because actually we don’t have a reliable way to farm string in this world which

Isn’t the end of the world but i would like a way to farm this stuff genuinely i cannot get over the luck in this world i mean the the world itself it’s it’s a nice seat i haven’t found a mesa biome which is a big downside but

We could go exploring and maybe find one but yeah it’s a nice world but the thing that makes this world so amazing is the luck that i’ve had in it i don’t even know what it is what i was setting up uh you know for this series what i kind of do

Is i create new world and then if i spawn in a good spot we go for it and if you saw the first episode we spawned into planes and i was like hey we can work with this plane this is a good spot and so it was that

That’s how i chose the world really a spawn could be misleading when you’re creating a new world i mean it could look good but then after that it’s just not that good at all but seriously the luck in this world is crazy and that’s something it’s just it’s just amazing it’s just

Amazing it makes me love this game even more because obviously i get everything that i want hey hey hey that’s cool we’re not really looking for one of these right now that’s cool very exciting um but yeah yeah i pretty much get everything that i wanted in this world i’m like spoiled

And it makes me like this world even more not gonna lie i love it obviously clearly so by going through this mine shaft and looking through every single hallway and lighting it all up we’re also doing ourselves a big favor we have the elytra now still haven’t

Really worn it or done anything with it but we do have the elytra which means we’re gonna need a gunpowder farm at some point maybe today we’ll find dark mineshaft and take out some creepers and get more gunpowder but if not uh we at least light everything up and

If everything is nice and bright then we can make a creeper farm on the surface and the rates will actually be good if i were to set up a creeper farm right now yeah it would be really really bad there’s a lot of caves under here that i

Have not lit up quite yet and nope that wouldn’t be good for the creeper farm not at all unless i went really high up in the air so anyways mine shafts are gigantic mazes we need to find yes this this darker parts of the mine shaft that i have never been to before

This is exactly what i’m looking for lava you gotta go away actually actually actually no it doesn’t well actually check this out we’re gonna need lava for our iron farm when we build it probably next episode now that we have the name tag which is amazing uh so we might as well

Get the lava now standard mining procedures in these things gamers light it up i make it really really safe and then you’re gonna come back in here and take all of the resources i’m trying to take as many resources as possible because i could always stock up if i missed some

It is what it is since this episode is all about name tags let’s talk about one big idea that i’ve always had for the name tag that idea that’s pretty straightforward it’s pretty simple make name tags more common name tags are so useful especially when it comes

To farming if you’re a farmer in minecraft you like to build farms or maybe if you just like to kind of create lore in your world both things that i love to do the name tags are hugely important but unfortunately they are so rare i mean this is just my

Take but i honestly feel like at the least nametag should be in way way more loot tables like i’m talking like maybe the the desert temple the loot there is kind of bad the jungle temple too maybe maybe name tags there i feel like name tags should honestly

Be able to be found like pretty much everywhere in your world it would make them so so much easier to get especially ever since the changes to afk fishing were made i also feel like name tags are just one of those things that they should be tricky to get right

Like like you should be able to craft them for sure i i don’t think you should be able to craft name tags that would be maybe a little too opie something shouldn’t be able to be crafted but i mean i i would think that the devs

Would want players to add you know more personalization and more more character i guess to their world and how do you do that well by taking out the zombies with your with your op pickaxe yep exactly no no by name tagging things you name creatures in your world

It gives your world a lot more light so hopefully hopefully in the cave update uh maybe there are some new underground structures which that’s a whole separate thing but hopefully there’s some new underground structures and hopefully hopefully nametags are in the loot table i mean i know master level librarian villager you

Could buy it and then once you get to that point they’re not really uncommon it’s pretty easy to farm them after that but i mean seriously a master level librarian villager that is going to be pretty uncommon if you’re really into villagers i guess is not uncommon but

But realistically for for the average player who maybe just wants to name their horse or or their strider even their strider uh well the name tags are gonna be tricky to come across ooh what is this this is a ravine of sorts a small ravine a very cool ravine very nice

This is actually literally the smallest ravine that i think i’ve ever seen i mean look at this thing is like consistently two three blocks wide it’s tiny this shouldn’t even be a ravine that shouldn’t even exist sorry to say we have to really embrace the vibe of

Caving these og caves while it lasts i know the cave update is really long ways away but yeah this is the simplicity of it all it’s gonna be gone these circle rooms they were so exciting to find yeah that’s not gonna that’s not gonna exist a giant ravine

That’s not gonna exist for very much longer is what i was saying hello gigantic dangerous ravine with even more mine shaft i like to see the more mine shaft i don’t exactly like to see the the gigantic dangerous ravine also remembering remembering remembering that i have villagers on

The surface um this is not good i do not have a bed you know what should i i perhaps i should perhaps this would be a good call let’s go ahead and backtrack a little bit to safety over here maybe grab some of this stuff and staircase up to the surface i can’t

Uh just just let zombies take out all of my villagers water i’ve hit water and it’s nighttime oh this is just a literal lake okay i’ve hit a small lake i can’t be stopped aha the surface and my villagers my poor villagers no no no drown get away from the villages get

Away from the villagers i don’t think you can figure it out stay back from those things you beast the baby villagers better be fine the child your children you better be fine in there go away skeleton not now are you okay are you it sounds like you’re good okay you’re good you’re good

You stay there stay there i need to remember to sleep this is not good all right this time it’s different it’s all different for sure i’ve got a bed so i can sleep whenever i need to now let’s move back into this ravine and slide over to that mine shaft the

Goal today wasn’t actually the ravines it was the mine shaft so what i want to do is make it just a little bit safer for myself here i wonder if this is going to be the same mine shaft or a different one i yeah okay we’ll go down here

That’s fine that’s cool a couple of vendor men hanging out that’s normal oh look it loops around okay perfect uh let’s go ahead and get to the mine shaft i know i passed up a bunch of loot but mine shaft and uh even more importantly spider spawner

Okay so first things first let’s go ahead and get rid of these cobwebs i do not need those things in there they’re annoying there we go clear that out a little bit now we should be able to move down here and hopefully uh find the spawner probably right over here

Light it up okay we’re good skeleton not worried about it i have another right make yourself seen skeleton make yourself skeen oh you’re back there pathetic puny spider puny spider all right so this is how i’m gonna leave this one i’m gonna go ahead and just

Kind of leave it exposed like that uh hopefully i don’t have to go back through that way don’t like going through cobwebs let’s just go ahead and maybe go down this way and check this oh yeah there we go yeah oh yeah this is perfect you go away

And look it does connect okay okay good to know there we go we’ll clear it up a little bit uh so uh diamonds are over there that’s pretty sweet hey another one of those things that’s cool uh more ravine i think that’s like hey oh oh keep it cool skeleton keep it cool

Keep it cool keep it cool look buddy me and you we’re not alike your bow it’s absolute trash my aiming is absolutely on point look at that one shot to the legs absolutely weak i would have been able to take a couple shots of the leg

And i would have been fine i would have been walking in fact still yep pathetic diamonds let’s check this out we got one we got two okay oh we’re gonna have a solid chunk of eight this is amazing this is amazing how many diamonds are we gonna get oh

18 18. okay yeah yeah yeah i’ll definitely take 18. i would have taken one that’s amazing that is really really good and look at this mine shaft is absolutely destroyed by the lava wow that’s crazy uh if i were to live in this mine shaft i would be devastated gotta take all of

The iron that i can get even though you know we’re gonna have a farm for this thing next episode’s time coal though you know what i almost dipped out no no you won’t catch me dipping out on coal coal coal is better than diamonds you see always take the coal because it

Leads to more mine shaft which is perfect always happens like that this is weird this is so weird this is like it’s like a couple mine shafts generated across each other at least that’s what i always think when these ceilings are just all messed up like that it’s so weird

Okay yeah that’s like crazy over there don’t know who built this mineshaft whoever did definitely not normal seems like this is a little bit of a dead end so let’s go ahead and head down maybe we’ll get more lucky and find even more diamonds or more gold

Absolute garbage that’s cool i’d love to take that and throw it at the cactus or something cool like that that’s always fun an interesting room an interesting place for sure lots and lots of fire lava not good for for the health of this mine shaft i can’t believe it we found a

Lootchester right at the beginning and sure i am venturing off into the caves like a tiny bit but we found a loot chest right at the beginning and then the rest of the time we’re not gonna find like anything at all i mean yes again i need to stick

To the mine shafts for sure definitely not a doubt about it but literally no loot chests after the first like 30 seconds i don’t know that doesn’t seem very fair to me not at all oh more diamonds though more diamonds which is always nice which is definitely amazing

Weird intersection in here we’ll make our new staircase right there more diamonds i did not think today’s episode was going to turn into diamond profit pure diamond profit here we’re going to have like 32 diamonds now 28 okay same difference same thing yep very very close wow wow this is just amazing

Oh hello i turned the corner right after finding the diamonds then maybe you named it oh yes another name tag i love it i love it and wait were there more oh there were more diamonds in there okay nice we have some inventory management to do definitely throw that away i’ll throw

The rotten flesh away we have a farm for that and hey how you doing buddy you can go away you can go away wow okay so in two name tags now that’s good that’s good i was gonna say it it was getting really rigged at this

Point i i wanted to find at least one more blue chest which i guess i’ve done that now so now whenever i leave i’ll be happy i’ll at least be a little bit content hey you get out of here not with that black not with that black dude not

Would have let anyone else uh live but you had to pick up that block you’re done that’s right that’s that’s that’s where i call game oh what other one is it gonna be like the last ones it is it is it is it is it’s game over it’s

Game over we have so many name tags now we could build like literally three iron farms which is that is just that is just wealth right there that is absolute wealth this is so exciting okay so what do we not need now cobblestone guess i don’t need it uh

More cobblestone right there guess i don’t need that either definitely want the gold though i would love to throw this in lava all right all right so we’re in this open part of the mine shaft now it’s a lot more normal looking which means it’s a lot more

Uh easy for me to check things out scope it all out i can just kind of stand and you know zoom in look down the hallway see if there’s anything down there but i i am still trying to go down all these hallways too and you know light everything up oh no

Oh no oh no not good not good i forgot i totally forgot i bet it’s oh okay good okay it’s fine it’s fine i i was gonna say i totally forgot about nighttime it’s probably the middle of the night guess it has oh what is that

Okay all right yeah call me b double o because i know exactly when to sleep it’s easy it’s easy i do it literally in my sleep all right but we are having a serious inventory problem here it’s time to stop take a break and actually sort this out we could

Definitely consolidate the coal into blocks the lapis we could it might not well actually it might be kind of worth it a little bit worth it i mean we’re still going to have two separate stacks but it’s fine consolidate that stuff diamonds are fine like that for now yep

I think everything else is good just because i’m low on inventory space i’m not going to worry about that crafting table the crafting table can just live in the mine shafts and guard it and maybe keep it from burning that would be perfect all right let’s see maybe maybe can we

Get one more loot chest give me one more loot chest and then i’m out of this thing because the inventory will absolutely be full at that point but one more loot chest with maybe one more name tag please minecraft please hear me out here it’s a good negotiation it’s a good deal

You won’t regret it i promise i’ll be able to build so many cool things and and have so many different named things that the game will literally smile it will be amazing because of all of the all of the friends that we’ve made yep definitely uh the game cares about my

Friends yep yeah yeah okay yeah okay i don’t think the my chefs are healthy for me elites the longer i’m in the mine shaft the the more i find myself making up stories and you’re talking about random things and yeah the mineshafts are not good for me

It’s too much of the same it’s all a maze yup this is normal this is absolutely normal that’s how a mineshaft generates that’s right you’ve seen it here first mine shaft generation right here yep at its prime perfect but even more at its prime another loot chest let’s check and even

More diamonds okay all right and look at how close i was to them all too look at that i walked right by here and i didn’t even see this okay all right another name tag even more torches to help my my task here yep we’re done we’re done and wait pumpkin seeds

Do i even have any pumpkin seeds i might not i’m sorry beautiful gravel you’ve got to go and i’m sorry two spider eyes you’ve got to go too i don’t want the beet seeds nope all right so let’s go ahead and clean this up right here it’s a little messy

Over here definitely could use some work grab these diamonds check out these extra empty ho ho wow look at this look at that yup yup okay that’s that’s perfect 49 diamonds i need to do this more the hands down i need to do this more okay

We’re gonna go ahead and check out uh just these few dark spaces right over here and then i’m out i think i’ve definitely more than accomplished my goal my job today check this 900 iq play right here we’ve got the skeleton we’ve got the other skeleton they take each other out skeletons

Ultimate big brains all right i’ve cleared out this wing everything should be pretty much lit up now just one small spot that i have to check which i think is right up here check out these few hallways and then i have no clue honestly how i’m gonna make my way out

Of this thing i think the best plan here when it comes to escaping this place is honestly probably just gonna be oh wait never mind i found the square room this is gonna be really easy to get out of here who would have known that although that was so close to the spot

When i was mining out this thing caving initially i literally should have just finished oh there’s more there’s more there’s one more loot chest okay i keep calling it and then i find more things let’s check it what do we have another name tag is there a name tag in every single one

Of these because today apparently there is i thought there was like a 50 50 chance or something like that wow okay well you know what inventory’s full i need to get out of here i go you have to i have to i have to i have to look

I can’t not okay a diamond look at that there’s the first one they’re not in every single one we got a golden apple instead fine that’s a fine deal i see how it is negotiation i’ll take it oh right well i think it’s time to check out the loot i had to bail

That mine shaft just kept going and going and going so i climbed it at the surface marked it with a torch and some cobblestone and yeah we’ll have to go back in there and finish lighting that up later eventually so the loot what did i get today

Well we got more name tags than we ever really needed this is amazing five name tags that is literally best case scenario we got so so lucky today but uh it’s not only at the name tags we got lucky with the iron the coal uh the diamonds it’s it’s been a good

Day for sure but i definitely have some organizing to do i have no clue where i’m going to put all of these rails i i really i need a storage room anyways today’s comments of the day i wish waddles would do a bedrock series for 1.17 i would love that so obviously i’ve

Seen this comment a lot i i get the comment all the time better series better guide you know that kind of thing i love the idea i i really really do and i’m not saying that i won’t ever do it i mean i might do it one day but i have

To be honest uh when it comes to better our edition you know i haven’t played it as much so i don’t know the mechanics as well so it would be a lot more of really just kind of learning things you know while uh playing the thing like yeah i wouldn’t consider myself as

Like smart big brain with better architection not at all so uh this axe definitely needs a name and it needs an enchantment and it needs a combination so let’s go ahead and do this uh first off we’ll start with this what do we want to call it uh fortune 3

Well gamers i don’t have a name for the axe i sat and i thought and i thought and i thought i can’t come up with it so for now diamond axe is the name we’ll put um ending on it too and then eventually i’ll come in here and change

The name it’ll be uh you know a little bit more expensive but it’s fine it’s not the end of the world this axe is definitely ready for mending for sure but that’s gonna do it for today’s episode of the minecraft guide today big shout out to my patrons
