Let's be honest. Even if you have a crap ton of diamonds it's still fun to find diamonds
Seconded, lol
yep
If this man was a language he would be straight facts
I feel this comment applies equally to Minecraft and real life.
No matter what, it is always a great feeling to find diamonds
The big issue with caving is that it’s substantially more dangerous. Early game or hardcore, branch mining is still your best chance of finding diamonds AND living long enough to use them.
True but once you got endgame enchanted gear and totems and stuff it’s not bad, I am on a streak of not dying for about six months
I ran down there with iron armor and stone tools and blasted the doom soundtrack as I killed everything down there.
It was risky, but fun.
@@MK-gb7ht thx, I'll do that sometime
THANK YOU. I've started on a hardcore world and quickly realized that at least for now, deep caving is a no-go
As soon as you get a full set of enchanted (even if the enchantments aren't that great) diamond, the cave method becomes pretty trivial to do. In fact, full iron with enchants also works fine for the late early game.
The devs have said(at least I think have said) that reduced air exposure does not effect water, so water mining is better than open air caves at least to a certain extent
I don't know if they said it but it at least was factually true.
Might not have been intentional though so I have no idea if it was fixed.
At the really low depths you'd have to go lava mining.
Yep this is how I found all my lapis
@@NedJeffery *tips hat*
plus seeing in water in bedrock is easiier for some reason
About 2 hours worth of cave exploring with night vision potions and fortune 3 pickaxe gave me about 42 diamonds, but strip mining at -54 gave me about 34 diamonds in half that time
Yeah -54 is literally the perfect level
Maybe i am unlucky with caves but i have the opposite experience in 2 different new worlds
I strip mined at y -58 in a savanna biome (this is important) with a fortune 3 eff V pickaxe and got 75 diamonds in about 15 minutes
@@nonsfearme5474 did you have a netherite?
@@nonsfearme5474 why is the importance of the biome?
I do really like how they've added multiple strategies to mining.
ibytoycat still hasnt got the strategie of holding a torch so people watching can see what the hell he is doing
He doesn’t have any resource and behavior packs to enable that functionality. In vanilla Mc, holding a torch does absolutely nothing. You need Optifine or a behavior pack
@@SuperLifestream ok boomer
@Swedish Ghostface they do look in aquafers
@Swedish Ghostface also it does because who cares abput reduced air exposure exept boomers just take a look

My special thing - the weird thing I like doing in Minecraft - is stripping mineshafts of all the resources. Almost even taking all the wood (but only the wood that I need to make new tools and smelt ores while I’m stripping the mineshaft.)
I love getting lost in the mineshafts and finding how they’re all connected.
I tried doing that in the beginning but after having way too much stuff to hold and getting hopelessly lost I quit doing that pretty soon...
My special thing are greenhouses and gardens. My main base is basically a big habitable botanical garden.
what about the spider webs

@@Thetalinshow yup! I use shears to take them down so I can get more string.
@@sizanogreen9900 you probably like lush shafts
@@timohara7717 They are fine, but really I don't explore that much. Only enough to gather supplies or find a new good place to build, then I simply build there. I have one nice comfy house in a lush cave but that is it. After 1.18 I am mostly building in and enhancing a mountain range so far.
I've always felt that exploring caves for ores was so much more fun that just branch mining. I never really minded branch mining as a way to get a lot of blocks and ores, but it's not really something that I would consider "fun". I'm looking forward to exploring the 1.18 caves, and if I'm rewarded by finding Diamonds then that is just a cherry on top. It's not like I really need any Diamonds at this point. I think that the way that they have it makes sense for new players that need to find Diamonds for their first Diamond Pickaxe, to fill out a Diamond Armor set, or to upgrade the remainder of their tools. I find it kinda weird that a bunch of Minecraft RUclipsrs are saying that it's "too easy" to find Diamonds in 1.18 as they are already geared up.
I didnt need iron armor I just skipled that straight to full diamond armor. Diamonds are easier to get. Also imagine this full diamond under an hour on a random seed. Yep.
I dont think it's too easy because no one seems to be considering multiplayer, yes me and my bf made a full diamond armour set in 45 mins.. but could we find enough for a second set before he does something dumb and loses half the first one? i wish, oh my god I WISH
i liked just going for idk 3 hours in a random direction mining in minecraft while just listening to music/podcasts, it was just something to look at while im thinking about what im hearing or vibing with the music
Lol i have the exact same opinion
It’s like they finally put the ‘Mine’ in Minecraft. It just means more time left for exploration and crafting
i like how one of the little loading screen tips still say “need diamonds? try mining at y level 11”
I always use Silk touch when I go mining. Then use Fortune back at base. That way I don't have my inventory full of lose ores. And little more organized.
It's much more efficient to craft minerals and raw metals into blocks
@@naverilllang Came to say exactly that lol. Just carry a craft table which you always should anyway
Why not carry the fortune pick axe with you instead of placing the ore after you've already mined it.
@@crazy4rc Inventory space. Fortune will fill it up way faster.
@@TheKrazyKrow different story with redstone and lapis, fortune will give you ~2.5 blocks of redstone or lapis lazuli, silk touch uses only one block worth of space
i don’t mind that mining takes a long time, so honestly i just use cheap iron (or sometimes even stone) pickaxes for base mining and mine the ores with a good pickaxe. i mine while listening to music or someone else’s stream and it’s just my chill out and zen time. anyways, my mining is incredibly scuffed because i like it that way.
Exactly. Usually by the time I need diamonds, I have a TON of iron. That means it hurts less to use up my iron to get that reward of diamonds. It's easy to zone out and strip mine, especially when watching RUclips in the background. I often watch Toycat's livestreams while playing Minecraft because I feel like it gets me into the flow of it
One of my favorite things to do in a new survival world is to find a large deep going cave and set up an auxiliary base and scaffolding and setting up extensive ladders
My instinct tells me to make every cave or any geographically covert areas into a base
I mined at like -57 and found diamonds so much faster than I did when I explored caves
Diamonds are not only easy to miss in dark caves but also, as you said, can generate even alone since they are cut off by the cave and ive gotten pretty unlucky
I found so many more by mining the classic way at -57
They can also generate alone when they’re not in caves
My luck is also terrible lol, but it’s terrible either way
Agreed
Same
Just get some golden carrots to make noghtvision potions
Although you're hypothesis is actually incorrect, the diamond experiment did show me the actual best way to find diamonds: underwater caves. The amount of diamonds you mined just in the water was more than all the other diamonds you mined before them
Tunneling: peaceful, few mobs, guaranteed yield, more sustainable, more efficient use of space, hard to get lost.
Caving: full of mobs, inconsistent yield, motivationally exhausting, inefficient (leaves lots of overlooked ore), constantly lost.
You decide what sounds more fun.
Tunneling is boring. Exploration is fun.
@@hansdomke89 I think it’s a phase of life. When young, everything is brand new and exciting. I still remember finding my first endless Minecraft cave. I established a base camp and went raiding into the dark with my doggo protector, lighting it up, and mapping it out. I still remember its tunnels and multiple entrances. And after 6 months, I had not found the bottom. The constant exploration tired me out the rest of the day and sucked time. And all I got was 10 diamonds after 6 months.
Then, I tried tunneling. Not only was I filling boxes of diamonds and azuli, but I found dozens of exciting caves from the bottom up, where all the diamonds spawn. I would place signs to help myself find the caves, and even give them little names. One time I stumbled on an end fortress by sheer luck, marked it with a sign, and one day spent 5 minutes finding the end portal. No muss, no fuss, and as many resources as I would ever need for fully enchanted everything. I felt OP compared to the Ender Dragon and when I beat the game, I just shrugged and started over.
Caving is galactically infinitely more fun than tunneling
@@Narvalo_Lastar Depends what you want. When you want lots of ore, tunneling is better. If you want to burn through food, armor, and weapons fighting the same mobs over and over only to find a handful of diamonds, caving is swell I guess.
@@rezlogan4787 If you're going to say caves are repetitive then don't get me started on strip mining lol, I just prefer playing in randomly generated environnement where I have to be active it's really up to preference since both give a lot of ressources
That method is great if you have an elytra for getting around but if you’re on foot that’s going to take 10x longer just dealing with terrain also how are you coving that much area and not seeing hostile mobs the first cave I came across every 4 seconds I was fighting for my life
If you are specifically looking for diamonds, you absolutely want to dig down to -58, as the incidence of diamonds increases with each level down.
Oh em I have been strip mining for 1 hour at y = -58 and I have not found any diamonds, is there eeeeh a reason whyy? Big oof ;-;
@@eugeneli4701 how much have you stripmines
why -58? why not -60?
@@jettaeschroff6924 Because at -59 and below, you hit bedrock blocks which you cannot mine through. Mining at -58 you will have the occasional block of bedrock at ground level, but that will not interfere with your shaft mining.
@@jettaeschroff6924 bedrock be like
I love exploring new caves, but I kinda miss when there was a method to finding diamonds like the lapis trick
I love that they've balanced the two approaches. I wouldn't say caving is entirely "better" than branch mining, since you're going to have to venture out further and further to keep finding new caves a lot faster than you will with mining (though with an elytra maybe that doesn't matter *too* much). But so far I enjoy mixing up my approach with both because the variety is nice
Fun fact: if you dig straight down in water caves, you will enter a new cave.
The lower in those water caves
I liked the experimental version of 1.18 this update nerfed diamonds so much it feels like part 1 release when there wasnt any diamonds too
I had the same experience. I found 1 diamond over 20+ hours.
so you just changed the name of the video to say minecraft 1.20?
No Stream. Tap To Retry
I do like watching the mining parts, but I really like the building part. Gives me inspiration.
I was never a fan of mining but after this update I might start loving it
Strip mining seemed just as good. The time taken to search for caves, climb in and out while fighting creatures compared to building a shaft you can zip up and down and plug away collecting materials you’d eventually need anyways. I like building a mineshaft and dropping an 8x8 base to store everything at th bottom of it and just strip mining out from it.
It's way more fun to explore the caves than branch mining, and this update has made caving not just viable, but the best method. However, it really devalues diamonds, to the point that I think the game either needs some kind of new, very valuable and rare item that gives you more of a reason to go in the caves, or, they introduce a new powerful item with a crafting recipe that requires diamonds. You can get a lifetime supply of diamonds in a single caving session with a fortune 3 pick, after that, what is the draw? I hope that the deep dark cities introduces some new rare, consumable item that encourages you to keep coming back.
It's a bit like the problem with amethysts, you can get so many shards from a single geode harvest that you dont really need to farm them. Amethyst shards just dont have enough uses yet.
i think it largely depends on the player, whether diamonds are too common.
players who have mending wont need too many diamonds, while players who dont have mending will always need to go back for more.
players who are familiar with minecraft are likely to have/get mending villagers, while players who arent familiar with minecraft probably dont have mending villagers.
so basically, for old players diamonds are too common, but for new players diamonds might not be too common.
For sure. Played last night and found a new gigantic deep cave system. In 60 minutes of fighting hordes of zombies and exploring I got 64 diamonds with a fortune 3 pickaxe. Every one of those were completely exposed. I like it, but they are just too common. I have over 600 diamonds and only have made about 8 netherite ingots. And thats after a few hundred TNT blasts to expose them. I've totally given up on netherite. Far to time consuming with little payoff. Netherite isn't even that much better to begin with. This is my opinion of course.
@@tavanium i enjoyed reading your perspective
@@TheFlyfly Thanks for the reply and the same to you. Hopefully the holidays will be good to you.
@@tavanium aww thank you. i hope so too, for both me and you
Important note, as of 1.18.1 all diamonds will be harder to find exposed on bedrock.
Really? I see no difference. I still find ridiculous amounts of diamond in the big caves/caverns.

It is definitely true that the players are going to experience a lot of variation in pretty much every single aspect of the update as mojang have said it themselves.
Where did the video go
Ok it’s back
Toycat you could make a Minecraft ASMR where it's just 5 hours of you mining through deepslate.
i feel that villagers trading armour is op or whatever but i also feel that the tool smiths selling pickaxes is not weird
I’ve think learned more about Minecraft in the past ~year just by watching toycat than I have in all the other years I’ve been playing it. Awesome vid!!! :)
1x2 tunnels done in TWO blocks apart (not three blocks as you mentioned) is the way to do branch mining. That way you don't lose the blocks in the middle line of the two branches that you did !
I like mining at y-54 or 52 because it's the old y12 which was the same layer that was about lava pools. I just build a bridge and continue mining straight. I mine a tunnel with four unmined blocks in between because you already exposed those walls. Not including above and below them.
Seeing you mine and ramble is so wholesome, made me wanna go and mine some
I love catching a vid right after it goes up
Well of course it's easy to explore caves with good enchanted weapons, armor and the ability to fly but by that point a regular player probably doesn't even need the resources that much anymore.
I prefer the classic branch mining, it's safer, more relaxing, can find caves, you can use low tier tools, at least until you can get good gear and go spelunking.
Particularly on mobile because the touch controls suck.
Speed running through caves to find diamonds makes loads of sense, once you are equipped for it. Like enchanted diamond gear etc. (In your case, netherite and elytra,) If you try to speed run caverns when you are just starting out, without such gear, you are GOING to die and likely lose everything you found. When I am starting out in a new world, I will spend the first five minutes gathering wood and stuff and a few minutes before sunset, proceed to dig down into the ground to create an underground bunker complete with murderhole doors, just in case. I set up a starter base there. Likely first night, I will start to dig a staircase down looking for coal & iron. Once I am kitted out with iron, I'll head deeper still and start shaft mining for diamonds. I do NOT explore caves! Shaft mining is WAY safer until you are kitted out with diamond and have enchantments going.
Once I have a full set of enchantments on diamond gear, 'then' and only then will I dare exploring caverns and the like.
I love to listen to your let's play videos while playing minecraft.
As a new player this system is daunting. I have been caving for hours on end. Multiple caves, strip mined myself into other caves, etc. Been down at Bedrock level (-58 to -60) and I have not seen a single diamond. I have run out of Coal because I have used so many torches, I have plenty of Iron, and Copper... Copper... What is that even used for? Maybe the Spyglass is somewhat an effective item. I have stacks upon stacks of this. I also have a lot of Redstone, Lots of Gold... Abundance of everything... But no diamonds...
Probably gonna build all houses with copper from now one... It's almost as common as coal back then, just that coal is kinda useful and copper is useless (if spyglasses aren't one time use).
Try -54, helped me find a lot more
Great video and an eye opener for the newer cave updates, but i fell this is more later game, flying around with elytra, heavily enchanted netherite items (which need a ton of diamonds to create the armour in the first place) so for now ill stick with my strip mining, which to be far if you didnt fly around the map so fast may have been a better output
Mining is still one of my favorite parts of the game too! Also, I always bring 3 pickaxes with me for mining. I have one for most things, my fortune, and my silk touch. All 3 have mending, unbreaking 3, efficiency 5 except for my fortune because it costs too much to upgrade the efficiency from 3 to 5 but I'll eventually just make a new one.
Honestly, efficiency on netherite gear absolutely melts everything.
I try to remove one block of dirt and end up making a whole pit half the time.

@@InfamousJRP yes
@@thearsonistlink yes

I found a wonderful cave system while exploring that was filled with amethyst, lava, waterfalls, gold, diamonds, lapis & red stone; also a spider spawn in a cage on fire (? I've never seen one in my game before so I don't actually know what it was) and 2 chests with loot inside. It has become one of my new favorite places to dig around.
toycat the only person I know of that can 30secs of content and turn it into a 40min video.
another reason to want diamonds is lets say your on a server and the currency is diamond.
23:00 I think water does not count as air for exposure (and thus you can find more ore in flooded caves)
Yep

Hey, I enjoy watching mining almost as much as I enjoy doing the mining. So don’t believe that “nobody likes it” crap! Also, 3 picks is my standard, Silk Touch and high Fortune get used for the ores, while high Efficiency takes care of the rest. Of course, max Unbreaking and Mending go on all of my tools. 🤠👍
EDIT: Mojang already clarified that water counts as a block, not as air, for the limited exposure ores and the no exposure ores. So, yes, swimming in the deep aquifers WILL increase your chances of finding them.
ikr, mining is life!
if you're already switching from your efficiency pickaxe to your silk touch, why not just switch to your fortune pickaxe instead and get the diamonds right there?
just put efficiency 5 on your fortune pick and mine with that. mining ores will keep it repaired.
@@naverilllang Yeah, that's what I do. I've never seen the benefit to carrying around a silk touch pick while mining
-59 is the new level to mine at. This is also lava level. So like at 7:00 your coordinates will say -58

I haven’t played Minecraft regularly in so long, but I’ve really been getting back into it recently. Appreciate this guide, was very helpful!
The caves can lead to extensive quantities of not diamond, but diamond ore. I remember going through a large one, when they weren't deepslate, and having stacks of ore(as we had silk touched the ore for an investment when we get fortune) this update made it genuinely feasible to find a stack of diamond blocks in a world.
Plays normal difficulty.
Holds Totem 😶
I play on normal/easy most of the time and I still hold a totem, anxiety is through the roof 😅
Yeah because having to replace fully enchanted netherite gear is a huge PITA. Why be elitist about the way someone else plays a game? 😅
Got lucky the other day and decided to empty out a gravel patch and found three diamond veins and one redstone vein in the gravel. 33 diamonds with my fortune pick
Toy cat loves mining, I love farming, maybe there should be a series that he does getting a bunch of his subscribers together where each person has a role
I love watching you mine, that's my favorite thing to do.
Thank you for the great video.
Ibxtoycat I've been loading up worlds trying to get a good seed for 1.18 but I've gotten the cave side of things but no good cliffs so dose anyone have any good seeds that I could use?
What you want a dose of
8:46 you can see that the lava lake doesn't end there. It continues under a layer of deepslate. If dig around the lake you might just discover a cave on the other side.
While I'm personally all about adventure mining by exploring caves and underwater, it's unfortunate that the experiment wasn't set up correctly. I had to pause the video and check when I noticed the silk touch pick was immensely faster than the other one, and sure enough, there's no efficiency on the non-silk touch pick. You can see it whenever he switches to it, such as around 12:13.
Great fun and video. I only play single-player, but you showed me about a year of fun things to build. I am not a huge cave lover, but the game has morphed to them. Your mushroom room is a must-build tho. Very cool! Great video. Even tho I know that caves are a great way to find diamonds, I just like to mine too much and still prefer to branch mine.
Just in case someone is wondering, water is counted as blocks so diamonds are not air exposed when under water
I believe anything you say about Minecraft, Toycat.
Also, did you really use diamond ore to block the lava? haha

I love watching streamers' mining streams, I'd say that's probably the one big thing I hate about edited down let's plays. Edit out waiting for items to smelt, waiting for grass to spread, converting concrete powder, and killing mobs at an experience farm. Mining is interesting and fun. You don't edit out crafting, why would you edit out mining? Those are both equal parts of what Minecraft is

If I’m going for just diamonds I like to enter the swim animation in a 1 block area. Then just mine forward. Works really well
I like having tunnels to connect up my bases. Then I build my trading hall.. Then I usually go for a huge tunnel bore or world eater if I need diamonds. Not sure if it's overall faster, but it is really fun to blow up the world.
Markliplier also enjoys mining. Called himself an excavator.
I enjoy enchanting abnormally much. Give me an enderman farm and I'll be set for a long time to come. I agree, it's very strange how people get their interests up into different things.

Fun fact: Digging a 1x1 tunnel by crawling under a trapdoor is the most efficient way to branch mine as you're able to expose 5 blocks for every 1 block mined! ~Red
Can't do that in bedrock, you need water to crawl (This is a bedrock video)
Well, there is also the 1x1 method with trapdoors and also you can do 1x1x5 branches perpendicular to your mainbranch.
I mine not to find the ores, but to know I have exhausted the area completely, Branchmining gives me comfort
This new update is crazy I got 43 diamonds in the first 10 minutes I was in the world!
Exceptionally good video man. Feels like the old days😛.
You should make let's play episode that's sole purpose is to be an excuse to spend an hour just touring through the new terrain lol, or just steam yourself doing that, because it's amazing!
Great video for tips and new subscriber! Me and my two little ones love Minecraft!
I spent literally half an hour in 1 big cave + mineshaft I wandered into on a horse and came out with 38 diamonds
With no fortune
Or horse?
nice, i managed to get 7 diamonds in an hour.
I love mining and watching mining, and am aaaaaaalways disappointed when people cut it out of their videos. It can be interesting, but also gives a chance to talk about things
So the "REAL" way to find diamonds is exactly the same as it always was.
I found out that's may the best way to strip on chunk boarder lines, what means to follow a X or Z coordinate what is possible to divide per 16! Just try that you will see what I am talking about! May you know the diamonds getting generated by chunks and in the border between two chunks you will have access to both of them what prevides more chances to face diamonds as well! Don't know how mutch exactly in % but it is quite a bit! (think around 3,5 to 5% but not sure about if my calculation is right lol)
I saw a video earlier that said the deepslate variant of diamonds are now more common than the regular diamond ore block itself. Can anyone confirm or refute that?
well they spawn lower down and most area lower down is deep slate so yeah normal diamond ore is rarer.
I can confirm, as diamonds are more common at deep slate depth than at the pre-1.18 levels.
Confirm. Fairly simple to reason out, very little of the diamond ore triangle is above y=0 which is where you find regular ores.
I’m almost 100% sure that every Diamond I found in my new world came from deepslate.
I was asking if the diamond ore spawns less frequently than the deepslate variant. I asked before I had finished the video but Toycat confirmed it. Thanks for answered, y'all. I guess I got lucky because the first diamond ore I found while mining deepslate was a regular diamond ore.
I'd watch you mine in a straight line for hours toycat
I take a silk touch pick axe as well as something to mine non ore blocks with.
I will only use the silk touch tool on ores exclusively.
I also make a load of stone pick axes for standard mining.
Gets rid of the stone and I don’t really care about how much longer it takes.
23:05 damn, just look at those caves filled with water! It even kind of reminds me subnautica, I would love to see some underwater monster there.
