*DISCLAIMER: Not actually Impossible, but after several failed attempts, you'll start to believe that it is. It is not, it is beatable, entirely playable, just extremely challenging to the point where it might seem impossible.*
Do you think you've mastered minecraft? Is vanilla single player just too easy? Needing a challenge?
How about playing hardcore? No - that's not challenging enough either. All you have to do is be cautious and resourceful and it's pretty much like any other survival world. That's no fun.
I believe I have come up with what may be among the most difficult challenges that you can attempt in vanilla minecraft. Don't believe me? There's a reason I named this The Impossible Beacon.
Here is your preset custom world, this is required. Do not modify it.
The goal of this challenge is simple: Build a Beacon.
That's it! Build a beacon on this map! As long as you follow some simple game rules.
The rules are as follows:
1. You MUST play on Hard difficulty. Not exactly a challenge otherwise. Hardcore only if you want to cry. I won't force that on you, I will be merciful.
2. No Cheats! Seriously, try this legitimately. Cheats delete challenges.
3. No Bonus Chest. All of the resources are in the map. Don't be a wimp, punch a tree.
That's it. Build a beacon on that preset with no cheats, no bonus chest, and set to Hard difficulty.
Why is this a challenge?
This is a challenge because of the preset and goal.
No iron spawns in the world. At all. This is the primary element of the challenge. You absolutely have to get all of your iron from zombie drops. No Gold spawns either. So good luck getting a quick iron pickaxe and then making gold armor to protect yourself. And no lapis spawns - meaning no enchantments. There are no randomly generated chests because no structures are spawned - no mineshafts, villages, temples, or dungeons, etc. So everything must be crafted. Also because no gold spawns nor chests with loot, you cannot turn villager zombies into villagers and start an iron golem farm to get around the no iron spawning / no villages rule. Diamonds are rare - they spawn close to the sky cap, so getting to them is more dangerous, finding them is difficult, and collecting them is important, because if they fall chances are they will be lost. Water is also rare. The oceans and rivers are lava - you must find a tiny water lake to access the nether. Also because the oceans and rivers are lava, growing food is going to be more difficult and time-consuming - so you have to manage your hunger wisely, since on Hard difficulty, you can die from hunger. Then, you'll have to spawn and beat the wither with no gold apples, no enchantments, only skill, brains, and more than likely luck on your side. You might be able to get some enchanted items from mobs, but remember they are at their strongest, so be careful.
Prove you are a Survival Master! Do The Impossible!
