wow this was so helpful!, so many tips: Golden piece of armor to prevent hoglin aggro Lava bucket to kill the piglin brutes block line of sight when opening chests to prevent aggro use hopper under chests without gilded blackstone to get loot without aggro turn on subtitles to see the piglin brutes' sounds
Aww the strider seemed reluctant to leave you even though it was cold... you made a friend. Also all those endermen who gathered at the end of the bastion raid seemed like they wanted to know how you did in there. Wish you could befriend endermen somehow bc theyre kind of cute
The hopper trick in the bastions is so good. Once you have shulker boxes you could even drain everything into an empty skulker box and never have to open your ender chest.
Best of luck with the Alexlriffs recordings! Keep up with you has been fun, so far. Or trying to as you are a very efficient builder! Excited to see where you take the storage system build. I wonder if this is the same Treasure Bastion that I found on this seed? The Treasure Bastion was found while digging a tunnel back from a Woodland Mansion and a random Trail Ruin site. The former which I found by using a map traded from the cartographer in the acacia village. This version of Minecraft is really exploration focused so this particular map seed has been a blast. Got a little lost on the way to that Manor but found a decent sized Mooshroom Island and two nice coral reefs, too. Plus all the jungle and swamps means that you have some insurance on getting all the best villager types in the experimental villager re-balance.
I still learn new things watching your series. So refreshing! Like using a double chest to evade the gilded blackstone or piglins only get angry when they see you open a chest so just blocking things off can prevent it. Really nice
GREAT VIDEO!! I have always went into the Bastians arrows flying and sword swinging just fighting everything. I have never meticulously picked it apart like you did. I’m going to find a new bastion and do the same thing.!!
You've inspired me to make my first auto sorted storage system. I've had my survival world since late 2021 and my endgame storge has just been a fair amount chests with sulker boxes inside the chest for bulk items which has served me well but I've grown out of it. Your storage video a few days ago gave me the push to finally build a proper storage system. I've dug out a basement underneath my house and I have built all the chests and redstone with 500+ double chests worth of storage (Including barrels and manual chest storage in the corners). All I have left to do is figure out how i want to sort it and add the filters which is going to be tedious (The last 10% is going to take the longest).Thanks for the great videos Pix!
Loving this series Pixlriffs. Still managing an episode despite adversity! True dedication. Bed mining, so much fun if you're going after ancient debris next time 😊
oooh. As an English teacher I absolutely loved the use of to ride in your sentence 'they can be rode'. I will use it as an example for my pupils just as soon as the next school year starts!
Hey Pixl, Good raid on the Piggy Fortress and good see you can now go to netherite gear. Can't wait to see the "mining for antient debris" eps. Till next eps Cheers
It's pretty easy to create a resource pack to fix your skin while offline, and I've done it soooo many times in the past. 1. First you create folders with the following names nested into each other : assets\minecraft\textures\entity 2. and inside the last entity folder, you paste your skin file as a png and rename it to steve. you then create a copy of the same skin file and rename it alex. now you should have steve.png and alex.png inside the entity folder. 3. once your done with that, you create a txt file with notepad with the following text : { "pack": { "pack_format": 9, "description": "Custom Skin" } } 4. Then you save the text file in the same folder as the "assets" folder and rename it to "pack.mcmeta". (just make sure you're changing the txt file extension to mcmeta instead of saving the file as pack.mcmeta.txt. if you do that, it simply won't work) 5. Finally you use a software like winRar or similar to create a zip of the files together. you do this by selecting the "assets" folder and the "pack.mcmeta" file at the same time by holding control and then right click and say add to archive, and select zip (don't archive as .rar, it won't work) you can name the zip file whatever you want, it really doesn't matter. Now you have your very own texture pack that you can move inside the "resourcepacks" folder under "%appdata%/.minecraft" that you can enable inside the game to have your skin show up even without being online! Looking forward to seeing your skin back next episode!!!
I’ve been pretty lucky and spawned right next to a treasure bastion. Thank you for making this video, it’s going to make things so much easier for me when I get around to raiding it 😅 You make it look so easy haha
My way of looting bastions is to snipe as much piglin brutes as I can with my bow before I enter the structure. When entering the big part, I go from top to bottom by continuing to snipe every piglin I see. (Simply because I don't want to bother with them in any case) And how I open those chests in the first part is simply digging under them and looting the chest from below. They don't realise you opened it that way
thanks for all the super helpful tips! i watched the survival guide season 2 when you did a similar video, and used your techniques to raid a treasure bastion a couple of weeks ago successfully! the lava bucket is really the best with dealing with many many creatures.
So a few days ago I raided a bastion for the first time on a server with a couple friends, and even that was scary as hell - One time I got surprised by a piglin brute and nearly died. Even with good diamond gear I went down to one heart within a few seconds and had to stay in a panic box for a while to get my irl heart to calm down haha xD I honestly doubted if I could raid a bastion alone on my solo world without dying, but your tips in this video were great! I never would've thought to use a lava bucket or hoppers, so thank you! :D That should make the whole thing a bit more manageable, so I might actually try to do it soon-ish.
Piglins are vulnerable to lava??? Wow... I always assumed they were immune like everything else in the Nether. That's going to make dealing with bastions a LOT easier! Thanks for the info! :)
Finally got pigstep in my current world and Pixlriff’s tips definitely helped. The lava bucket and fire resistance combo is also so satisfying to pull off in a pinch. Almost got cornered by two brutes before I remembered “oh right, I can just burn them”.
When he first showed the storage room pattern I thought Neapolitan and then he said it 😂. I was also thinking the same thing with cherry-crimson-mangrove, and I’ll honestly say I’m not a big fan of the Neapolitan, but I’ll trust your builder’s intuition to see it through here; you never disappoint. Wondering if Cherry-crimson-warped might look good and shake things up…
Ouch. We've got 2 internet providers in case one goes down as we run an internet dependent business from home. I feel your pain with the lack of internet connection. Having a qifi card is definitely a good back=up tho. I was definitely getting Star Wars vibes during that piglin Brute battle... with the burning them in lava, and the "It's over, I have the high ground" 😆
Hey Pix, wanted to say, you can use your mobile connection with your PC! On Android at least, when you plug your cable in, you should get a notification for connection type, (usually this is where you would enable file sharing), however you need to choose Ethernet, or USB tethering, or whatever it might be called.
Tip for all the people raiding their first bastion- if you have the iron, you can make iron golems and they’ll protect you against angry piglins. They can really save your bacon (pun intended!)
Also I love how your skin defaulted to Alex when your Empires S1 base was “Pixandria”… Alexandria, Pixandria, we’ve come full circle or maybe I’m just geeking out 😂
I am finally at the point where I can deal with bastions. Not perfectly, and with lots of safety platforms and target practice with the bow, but I am only dying 1 out of every 5 bastion visits. So much better than I used to do. Now that the templates are there, it's too much of a temptation to visit them.
FWY, if you phone is an android phone, you can tether with USB. going to settings, connections, tethering or sharing (depending on brand), then there should be a toggle for "USB tethering" (as long as you have a USB cable connected to your PC. also, generic USB Wi-Fi dongles do exist on amazon or another local retailer.
I severed my aunt's phone line when I was around 10-ish. A bit of wire was sticking out of their dirt driveway and I wanted to test my strength by pulling it apart with my bare hands. Thankfully, I wasn't electrocuted. I would've gotten away with it if I hadn't immediately gone inside to brag about it. I wasn't the smartest kid.
No wayy!! I kinda “copied” your house design but I changed the floor/ceiling to have almost the exact same design as the floor for your storage. Did cherrywood in center, then spruce, then dark oak on the edges. I thought the same thing about it looking like icecream but I still like it haha
I don't know if someone else has been mentioned this already or not but you can connect your mobile phone to your PC with a cable and in settings of your phone (It should be on Hotspot settings) you can enable USB thetring and use your internet from phone on the pc
@@haz6908 he said that you need to have a wifi card even if you are using a usb. but that's not really necessary as I can use usb tethering using my android phone and my pc doesn't have a wifi card.
Well he wouldn't know it if he didn't try so i'm just inclined to believe that if he said he can't use his phone for whatever reason then he probably can't@@hunter8071
If you use potions of invisibility and fire resist the whole time, you can quickly lava bucket anyone that detects you. It seems like you can leave some armor on as well while invisible as well.
I always assumed that the Piglins took over the structures of a more advanced society. Lightning turns pigs into Zombified Piglins in the overworld, so perhaps lightning in the Nether creates Piglins. The Bastions may have been built by the same people who built the ancient cities. Perhaps they accidentally created the Piglin race and the Wither to deal with them. They thought they were making a Nether version of the iron golem, but created a monster. They fled the Nether to escape the Wither, leaving the Piglins to occupy the Bastions. I assume that the Wither Skeletons and Blazes are the original inhabitants of the Nether. The ancient people built cities deep underground to try to escape detection by the Wither and eventually summoned the Warden out of desperation. The Warden killed the Wither, breaking the ancient city portal in the process. The residents of the ancient cities became trapped by the warden and the skulk machines/creatures. They were hunted down until they all died. 34:28 I swear I thought you were about to say that the real treasure is the friends we made along the way...
What would be good is on hardcore mode, the brutes have a 10% chance of spawning in enchanted netherite armour or carrying a netherite axe enchanted with Smite IV. This would encourage brave players to engage these dangerous mobs in hand to hand combat. Using looting however does not increase the chance of netherite drops, this would remain 10% and there is also a 50% chance any netherite items would be cursed as well, just to switch it up a bit.
Minute 5:02 Interesting. In the US, it's called _Neapolitan ice cream._ I haven't known that. It's new for me. *ì(ÓûÓ)í* I live in Germany, and there it is called _Fürst-Pückler-Eis._ *(c:*
War mir auch neu - habe mich auch gewundert darüber und auch sofort "Fürst Pückler Eis" im Sinn gehabt. To keep it international in the comments (in english): For a german this was new for me too. I wondered also about that and thought directly at "Fürst Pückler Eis".
I raided a bastion recently, and I did it full mission impossible style, stealthily taking down all the piglins and the brutes floor by floor with my bow until I had an empty bastion, I even made a skin for that with a night vision goggles and all
If you don't already have your wifi fixed, it might be helpful to note that many phones can use USB wifi tethering, where you connect to the wifi through your phone by plugging it into your computer's USB port. I hope this helps if you don't have your internet back yet.
Hey Pix, You can connect your phone to pc via usb Then Go to settings Mobile hotspot Usb tethering And turn it on Problem solved😅 Edit: You can also order an usb wifi...like a pendrive, which can be plugged into your pc and it can catch wifi directly
Mobile hotspot doesn’t appear in settings unless your PC already has a wifi component. The cable was already fixed anyway, but people are proposing a solution which didn’t work for me
for future reference. you can connect your phone via a usb cable. and enable tethering on your phone to use your phones internet on a desktop. even without a wifi card.
I spent several hours attempting to do this and concluded that, for whatever reason, my PC was unable to accept usb tethering. Perhaps it just didn’t have the right drivers installed because it didn’t have a wifi card - but any guidance I could find online for how to set it up pointed to settings that did not exist on my PC
funny enough, I had a similar experience recently, only I didn't cut the cable myself - roadworkers did that for me. Took about 10 days to be fixed. I ran into the same problem - main computer has no access to wifi, I had to make do from a laptop via mobile data hotspot. XD
I usually go for a full stealth mission, sniping everything from afar. Never considered the lava bucket. Though I'd probably set myself on fire at some point and I'd still want the regular piglins gone anyway.
I wish I seen this video. Playing Minecraft after years of not playing is so different. I stumbled upon this in the nether and got 2 shot by a pig. I was so confused
And I think we all winced as soon as we heard the bit about the internet cable running under the hedge... oof, sorry to hear that, hope they get to you soon!
I don’t think it would work, but you could try to connect your laptop to your pc via internet cable. I believe there are ways to tether internet via internet cables instead of USB between devices, but I don’t think it would particularly work…
this sounds.. so strange to me. I KNOW I've played minecraft offline without internet connection on multiple occasions and I always had my own skin, no issue. but that was a few years back, so maybe something changed since then?.. still, I'm baffled you weren't able to use your skin without access to the internet. :o
My game is so strange. I had my ocean monument in my spawn chunk without the structure generated. Just the bounding box. I found out by seeing wierd creatures like fish in the water. Had to dig it out but no harm. Same with my treasure bastion next to my spawn base. It's in the delta. So only piglin brutes I had to fight and since then it's empty. Only the magma spawner is there to make some frog lights.❤
Hi Pix, I don't have a wifi component in my pc but I can tether it through a USB to my android phone, it just takes a bit of jiggery pokery, hope your cable gets fixed soon!

I smiled when he mentioned that the floor looked like icecream because that's what I was thinking when he was still explaining his internet situation.

Golden piece of armor to prevent hoglin aggro
Lava bucket to kill the piglin brutes
block line of sight when opening chests to prevent aggro
use hopper under chests without gilded blackstone to get loot without aggro
turn on subtitles to see the piglin brutes' sounds

The hopper trick in the bastions is so good. Once you have shulker boxes you could even drain everything into an empty skulker box and never have to open your ender chest.
I haven't tested it yet but I think the piglins will still aggro from you breaking the shulker
@@graehart I didn’t think about that. Good call
They will get mad at you after you break them so what's the point?
@@graehartthey do. Just get a good bow and snipe them all

Best of luck with the Alexlriffs recordings! Keep up with you has been fun, so far. Or trying to as you are a very efficient builder! Excited to see where you take the storage system build.
I wonder if this is the same Treasure Bastion that I found on this seed? The Treasure Bastion was found while digging a tunnel back from a Woodland Mansion and a random Trail Ruin site. The former which I found by using a map traded from the cartographer in the acacia village.
This version of Minecraft is really exploration focused so this particular map seed has been a blast. Got a little lost on the way to that Manor but found a decent sized Mooshroom Island and two nice coral reefs, too. Plus all the jungle and swamps means that you have some insurance on getting all the best villager types in the experimental villager re-balance.
6mins right after released let’s go favourite season yet. Think of following this for my survival world. Keep up the good vids!!
I still learn new things watching your series. So refreshing! Like using a double chest to evade the gilded blackstone or piglins only get angry when they see you open a chest so just blocking things off can prevent it. Really nice
Great episode Alex! thanks for filling in for Pix!

You've inspired me to make my first auto sorted storage system. I've had my survival world since late 2021 and my endgame storge has just been a fair amount chests with sulker boxes inside the chest for bulk items which has served me well but I've grown out of it.

I've dug out a basement underneath my house and I have built all the chests and redstone with 500+ double chests worth of storage (Including barrels and manual chest storage in the corners).

I love when a new vid comes out. I was always wondering about pig Lin bastions, but I feel more confident now.
It's pretty easy to create a resource pack to fix your skin while offline, and I've done it soooo many times in the past.
1. First you create folders with the following names nested into each other :
assets\minecraft\textures\entity
2. and inside the last entity folder, you paste your skin file as a png and rename it to steve.
you then create a copy of the same skin file and rename it alex.
now you should have steve.png and alex.png inside the entity folder.
3. once your done with that, you create a txt file with notepad with the following text :
{
"pack": {
"pack_format": 9,
"description": "Custom Skin"
}
}
4. Then you save the text file in the same folder as the "assets" folder and rename it to "pack.mcmeta". (just make sure you're changing the txt file extension to mcmeta instead of saving the file as pack.mcmeta.txt. if you do that, it simply won't work)
5. Finally you use a software like winRar or similar to create a zip of the files together. you do this by selecting the "assets" folder and the "pack.mcmeta" file at the same time by holding control and then right click and say add to archive, and select zip (don't archive as .rar, it won't work) you can name the zip file whatever you want, it really doesn't matter.
Now you have your very own texture pack that you can move inside the "resourcepacks" folder under "%appdata%/.minecraft" that you can enable inside the game to have your skin show up even without being online!
Looking forward to seeing your skin back next episode!!!

Seeing the floor of the storage room makes me want ice cream.
LAVA BUCKET ftw!
Unfortunately for piggies in my bastion, I just lava bucket every living soul in the bastion. 😂
If you use potions of invisibility and fire resist the whole time, you can quickly lava bucket anyone that detects you. It seems like you can leave some armor on as well while invisible as well.
Wouldn't be a pixlriffs video without a technology-related incident every week.
Cmon its only twice
Funny thing is, Gem has been building in that Neapolitan ice cream theme in her hardcore world. It looks delicious 😊
You are the best teacher
Pix-"You want to be very careful not to agro any piglins"
Me-"So anyways I started blasting"
I always assumed that the Piglins took over the structures of a more advanced society.

as a suggestion to help with lag of the hoppers put composters on top of hoppers to minimize lag
What would be good is on hardcore mode, the brutes have a 10% chance of spawning in enchanted netherite armour or carrying a netherite axe enchanted with Smite IV. This would encourage brave players to engage these dangerous mobs in hand to hand combat. Using looting however does not increase the chance of netherite drops, this would remain 10% and there is also a 50% chance any netherite items would be cursed as well, just to switch it up a bit.
there is an option called "usb tethering" that allows you to share phone's internet straight through the usb.
And I did everything possible to make that work, yet for some reason it wouldn't.
Minute 5:02
Interesting. In the US, it's called _Neapolitan ice cream._
I haven't known that. It's new for me.
*ì(ÓûÓ)í*
I live in Germany, and there it is called _Fürst-Pückler-Eis._
*(c:*
That's fun. Here in Finland it's called "trio"
War mir auch neu - habe mich auch gewundert darüber und auch sofort "Fürst Pückler Eis" im Sinn gehabt.
To keep it international in the comments (in english):
For a german this was new for me too. I wondered also about that and thought directly at "Fürst Pückler Eis".
I raided a bastion recently, and I did it full mission impossible style, stealthily taking down all the piglins and the brutes floor by floor with my bow until I had an empty bastion, I even made a skin for that with a night vision goggles and all
If you don't already have your wifi fixed, it might be helpful to note that many phones can use USB wifi tethering, where you connect to the wifi through your phone by plugging it into your computer's USB port. I hope this helps if you don't have your internet back yet.

Hey Pix,
You can connect your phone to pc via usb
Then
Go to settings
Mobile hotspot
Usb tethering
And turn it on
Problem solved😅
Edit: You can also order an usb wifi...like a pendrive, which can be plugged into your pc and it can catch wifi directly
How do you know his phone is capable of it? Have you used it?
@@Justmebeingme37 I know you can call your Dad from your phone, have I used your phone?😂
Mobile hotspot doesn’t appear in settings unless your PC already has a wifi component. The cable was already fixed anyway, but people are proposing a solution which didn’t work for me
@@Pixlriffs Sorry, but you get it wrong, the settings I was talking about is on the phone settings 😅
Sorry, but you get it wrong, the setting does not appear on my phone.
Good episode as always
for future reference. you can connect your phone via a usb cable. and enable tethering on your phone to use your phones internet on a desktop. even without a wifi card.
I spent several hours attempting to do this and concluded that, for whatever reason, my PC was unable to accept usb tethering. Perhaps it just didn’t have the right drivers installed because it didn’t have a wifi card - but any guidance I could find online for how to set it up pointed to settings that did not exist on my PC
Another great video. Thank you
I mean, if you're stuck with a default skin for a bit, at least Alexriffs rolls off the tongue quite nicely.
If only Alex was called Axle instead. Axleriffs would've rolled off the toungue even easier.
@@atharvadeshpande4749 True.
Mom, Pix already post a new episode!!!
Mmm... the floor on the Storage Room looks like Neapolitan ice cream. 😋
funny enough, I had a similar experience recently, only I didn't cut the cable myself - roadworkers did that for me. Took about 10 days to be fixed. I ran into the same problem - main computer has no access to wifi, I had to make do from a laptop via mobile data hotspot. XD
I usually go for a full stealth mission, sniping everything from afar. Never considered the lava bucket. Though I'd probably set myself on fire at some point and I'd still want the regular piglins gone anyway.
I wish I seen this video. Playing Minecraft after years of not playing is so different. I stumbled upon this in the nether and got 2 shot by a pig. I was so confused
I love the Neapolitan floor!
Just as a tip, there are ISPs in the UK (Ill not advertise them here) that have a 4G fallback
Babe i was late waking up, new survival guide episode just dropped.
🎉🎉
And I think we all winced as soon as we heard the bit about the internet cable running under the hedge... oof, sorry to hear that, hope they get to you soon!
I don’t think it would work, but you could try to connect your laptop to your pc via internet cable. I believe there are ways to tether internet via internet cables instead of USB between devices, but I don’t think it would particularly work…
My trick to treasure bastions was to open the right up, and then fly out whenever things got too hairy.
this sounds.. so strange to me. I KNOW I've played minecraft offline without internet connection on multiple occasions and I always had my own skin, no issue.
but that was a few years back, so maybe something changed since then?.. still, I'm baffled you weren't able to use your skin without access to the internet. :o
Ahhh, let the Alex Saga begin
My game is so strange. I had my ocean monument in my spawn chunk without the structure generated. Just the bounding box. I found out by seeing wierd creatures like fish in the water. Had to dig it out but no harm.
Same with my treasure bastion next to my spawn base. It's in the delta. So only piglin brutes I had to fight and since then it's empty. Only the magma spawner is there to make some frog lights.❤
Huh--I never would have used a hopper to cheat the piglins!
Hi Pix, I don't have a wifi component in my pc but I can tether it through a USB to my android phone, it just takes a bit of jiggery pokery, hope your cable gets fixed soon!
You should put composters on all the hoppers to cut down on lag.
By lag I mean MSPT milliseconds per tick, It really does make a difference
2:10 you can share your phone's internet by using usb cable then activating usb tethering in its setting.
USB tethering doesn’t show up in the settings unless your computer has a wifi component.
If you have an Android, usb tethering is a thing and you can share the internet to your PC no problem
Are the brutes more powerful in Java edition? I tanked four of them yesterday 😂
