How about we make AFK fishing a world option instead where it is automatically off. We could, therefore, please both sides. I don't want the same thing happening with 1.9, it is already a huge mistake by Mojang to implement it.

What?, That's a simple statement.

but eh I do not agree with that.

cheat is cheat

Legit is Legit

and wouldn't that game-breaking? I don't think they would add this feature because they only focus on fixing bugs, fixing exploits and adding more things in the game, Not "implementing exploits" to make the game better.

Mending is good...

Only noobs use "exploits" to be honest I tried it in 1.9 in a creative world. xD

I see.

I see, I understand.

I see, I'm new here in this forums, but same, I did some find bad suggestions and I just ignored most of them.

wouldn't be better if dream Dimension is added tho?

If you are playing in creative mode, Switch to peaceful

This is normal.

It's fragile, It would break easily, It will last no longer than Leather.

I would say Glowstone is a fragile crystal, not like obsidian, a natural glass but harder.

I never disagreed with that, I'm just saying the lower tier items should be left as they are.

Obviously AFK fishing breaks the game and must be patched, or at the very least there ought to be a world option to disable it because getting enchantment books with no effort or player input is just stupid, I do not have an issue with enchantments like mending or infinity books coming from fishing, but I do have an issue with automating them because then their rarity means nothing in that case.

However, if people want to build mob grinders, let them, it doesn't hurt anybody else nor break the game.

Mob spawners are ok, if Mojang had an issue with people getting iron ingots off zombie drops then they wouldn't have made zombies able to drop that sort of stuff to begin with, it's part of the game and should remain as is, does not matter if it is from mob spawners or general overworld mob spawn.

I agree with you, I just killed the ender dragon and I got 63XP level, when I tried enchanting my books, I only get bad enchantments.

It is obvious that AFK fishing put players into effortless gameplay but as I said to my other posts, It's up to you if you want to play effortlessly, and it is up to the Server staff to set rules. yet won't that make survival mode seems... pointless?, of course, It will.

Now' I changed my mind trice, xD, Mojang should remove this, this is their job, if I was them, I won't let this to stay and be used by players because as you said, This is not the way how you play the game.

The point is without iron golems or zombies to drop iron ingots, iron is a temporary/finite resource within each game world. Once the iron ores are mined and used up, they're gone, and while you can move to other areas to find more iron to mine after exhausting local strip mines within a 10,000 block radius, the simple fact is there isn't an infinite supply of it in the form of iron ore in survival mode.

Not all Minecraft worlds are created equal.

Sure if you're playing on PC or bedrock edition then your world sizes can be 60 million X by 60 million Z blocks, which is a lot of blocks and resources.

But if you're stuck with the older console editions of Minecraft then your world sizes are going to be much smaller.

Iron tools and combat gears can be smelt to become an iron nugget but pretty much useless if you know what I mean.

Pardon me.

well, you got a point.

You just use them.

Just chose which enchantment you want to use and put it on whatever it will go on.

The other one will be wasted but I'm pretty sure that you don't get charged for it.

If you combine 2 books on the other hand you get charged the levels for all the enchantments in the second book.

I don't know that either is all that useful.

But if you already have all the enchanted pickaxes you need then...

Silk Touch could be useful if you want a LOT of melons for some reason, villager trading probably.

Or mushroom blocks, but, again, unless you want a lot you might as well use a pickaxe.

It could be useful for not having to recraft bookcases if you raid a lot of strongholds, mansions or villages, you really don't want to break bookshelves with anything other than an axe if its more than 1 or 2.

If you don't want to splurge on a Silk Touch shovel I think a pickaxe is as good as an axe for grass blocks, podsol and mycelium.

The only use that springs to mind for a Fortune axe is to not have to switch tools when chopping down trees but once you have a tree farm you'll be flooded with saplings, I suppose it'd be useful if you wanted a lot of apples.

To be fair, I did have to move my ocean monument villager trading potato farm a few blocks because I kept knocking holes in the walls with my Fortune Pickaxe.

Have I missed something?

Was there anything in particular you had in mind for them?

So, in general I'd say Silk Tough but, for me, in my current situation probably Fortune.

I don’t know much about Japanese architecture, but I think it looks fabulous. It is amazing how the style looks so different with just a few basic changes. I hope you plan on adding a lovely Japanese garden.

I'm pretty sure you'd want a bubble column.

That's a new kind of water elevator with water source blocks all the way up (no signs, air spaces or flowing water) and soul sand under the bottom.

(If you wanted it to go down you'd use magma blocks instead, though they cause damage to any mob standing on them, and to players that aren't crouching (or wearing Frost Walker boots I believe).)

https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Bubble_Column

An easy (but possibly slow) way to make sure there are no gaps between water source blocks is to put dirt/sand/gravel at the bottom (where the soul sand is going to go), dump a bucket of water at the top and plant kelp at the bottom, as it grows up through the water it turns it all to source blocks.

If you're in a hurry I think you can go up the column placing kelp all the way.

Or forget the kelp, start at the bottom with the soul sand in place ant place water buckets as the bubble column lifts you up, if you miss a level the bubbles will stop at that point.

I think I changed my mind, I agree that it's hard to remove this exploit.

It really depends on the rules and regulations of a server, either they allow it or not.

If you play single player, I suggest don't do this or else it will make survival magic vanish and it will make your game boring.

I LOVE that. Brilliant. Survival magic. Awesome. Kudos.

Starting a new world is always fun and interesting and if that is what you want, you should do it. But you shouldn’t feel obligated to suffer if the game fails you with glitches and corrupted chunks. The game is there to serve you and not the other way around.

What i call snake-head pass in my world, not very far from my first base

I think you may be mistaken?

Wasn't it a scute?

Those are the old shells that baby Minecraft turtles leave behind when they grow up!

So obtaining those would involve increasing the turtle population by breeding them and watching over the babies.

(Or letting them grow up in an protected area with hoppers on the floor, or hopper minecarts under the sand for the eggs to be laid on.)

You can use a "turtle shell" as a helmet to increase how long you can hold your breath underwater but those are crafted from 5 scutes, you can't get them by killing turtles, only by breeding them.

Eagle is neutral day-time only flying mob. But when players hunger bar drops to 3 - it will become hostile. It will attack player like scavenger birds attack weak animal. But you can hide under the tree if you want.

It is hard to kill or even notice Eagle, because they flying to high, but you can hear them cry, so you know they nearby.

Eagles are kind of rare mobs, they do not form groups (only one eagle patrolling large territory). Eagles do not fly over Dark Forest, Mushroom, Ocean biomes.

You can stroke Eagle when he attacks, or (better way) to drop rotten flash on the ground and hide (move 6-8 blocks away). It will land and start to eat flesh, that's when you can kill it.

Being killed, eagles drop “Eagle feather” - item for crafting new type of arrows. These arrows will be more powerful than regular arrows. Second ingredient for crafting those arrows - “Shark teeth”.

Why do I suggest Eagle:

1) We need more flying mobs.

2) We need day-time gaming process to be more challenging. Exploring map at the day kind of boring. Of course wee don’t need many hostiles mob at the day, but I would love to have some rare day-time hostile or potentially hostile mobs.

3) “Eagle threat” will force player to be more responsible for keeping hunger bar high.

4) New type of arrows.

Shark is a rare ocean hostile mob (2х2х3 blocks size). You know you are in danger when you see shark fin approaching. They can attack boats (but I don’t sure about that, write in comets what do you think), or they can stay neutral as long as your health bar is full. If your health bar is not full - you are injured, so Shark become hostile. Because sharks can smell blood many miles away.

They do not attack below certain level of the ocean (you can hide from them near ocean floor). Being killed, they drop “Shark teeth” - crafting ingredient. Combine “Shark teeth” with stick and “Eagle feather” and you will get powerful rare arrows (twice more damage then regular, and extended flying range)

Why do I suggest Sharks

1) We need more ocean mobs.

2) Sharks are cool and scary.

4) New type of arrows (twice more damage then regular, and extended flying range).

What do you think?

I came across this just the last time I played (mind the rain, it was raining at the time and I didn't want to wait for it to stop):

The area being cleared is where I built my base, with the mountains shown above visible in the distance:


A rendering of my base and the terrain around it:


Another part of the same biome:

This is from a "giant cave region", a vast regional scale cave feature that has a volume of around 1.2 million air blocks across a 300x300 block area, the most voluminous cave I've ever explored:


A slightly different angle of the same area shown above before I completely lit it up:



A giant ravine; these can be so large that even Far render distance isn't enough to see the other end:







This also often leads to interesting sights, like seeing the sunrise at the end of a long ravine:



A massive cave:



There was an even larger cave nearby; both this and the largest ravines each had a volume of over 250,000 air blocks:




Both caves, as well as the second ravine, can be seen here:
