    Chests = you can't carry with stuff inside
    Bundles = can hold a stack of items
    Shulker box = a carriable chest
    Ender chest = kinda like google drive. Can access the content from any other ender chest

    They're EXTREMELY useful for initial exploration and resource gathering for stuff like saplings, seeds, flowers, where you only need 1-4 of each before having to head back to base.
    But the "bag of holding" thing you are talking about already exists in vanilla - shulker boxes. You're going to LOVE shulker boxes.

    I think for mining purposes a bundle could be useful if you take the raw materials and a crafting table. Then craft as required. Looting sunken ships and treasure chests would benefit from using bundles too.

    I think the bundle is good for starting a world, but when a player has been in a world for a prelonged amount of time, a shulker is better.

      64 different items in 1 inventory slot is still going to be handy with shulkers.

      Exactly! That's what it's supposed to be! People complain but they don't realize that it's supposed to be the EARLY game version of the shulker box. It's not supposed to be for bulk, it's for variety. And it does it well!

    • @orestes1984

      The bundle will still be useful in that case to go in a shulker if you're running really low on inventory space.

  • @j0hnf_uk
    @j0hnf_uk 3 месяца назад +2

    Bundles just allow you to place in different items up to the total stack amount for any of those items. Generally, that's 64, but there are some which are only 16, and obviously things like tools and weapons only allow one item for the same reason. So, you have to be a bit selective in what you choose to put in. It's more for those odd items you have that take up an entire slot on their own, so can be collectively placed in one slot instead. Useful when taking items out of chests in desert temples, for example, or those in mineshaft chests that only amount to a small amount, but would otherwise take up a whole slot on their own.

  • @auldrick
    @auldrick 3 месяца назад +10

    Bundles aren't meant to give you more inventory space, they're meant to help you make better use of the space you have. Everybody has times when their inventory is full and they go through it picking out stuff to sacrifice to free slots for something they need. The bundle lets you keep those items instead, while still freeing up slots. As for tools and weapons, you shouldn't be putting those in a bundle anyway - you need those ready for use, not buried in a sack.
    BTW, you should read the notes in the changelog: You don't necessarily have to pull things out in the reverse order you added them. Try using the mouse scroll wheel while the bundle is open, you'll see what I mean.
    I plan to use a bundle for onesy-twosy things I always take when I go exploring, mapping, or mining: a bed, clock, compass, cartography table, empty maps, some paper, a couple furnaces, and a handful of coal. That's already 7 slots freed up, and I'll have plenty of room left over in the bundle for rare finds I happen to come upon, like the block of gold from a ruined nether portal or treasure from a desert or jungle temple.

    • @truthhunterhawk3932
      @truthhunterhawk3932 3 месяца назад +1

      That's actually perfect. That was my thoughts also. And now that we have coloured bundles, it makes it easier to sort also. The string and leather are easy to come by, and even if you have rabbits and no cows, you can make leather with rabbit hide anyways. And the dye is very easy to come by also

  • @killamackay
    @killamackay 3 месяца назад +2

    The thing is, if they made ot so it could take non stackable items as well ( tools etc) then it would just be the same as a more late game end chest, or shulker box. The fact that you can aquire the bundle from day 1, when you're not likely to have stacks of more valuable resources (ores and the like) makes sense to me, to have those limitations, but can still greatly free up early game inventory, especially when you don't yet have an established base for example. And because it holds 1 mixed stack, it does mean things like eggs/buckets/ender pearls etc will take up a quarter of the space as they're stacks of 16 only.

    • @FranciscoFloresNyu
      @FranciscoFloresNyu 3 месяца назад

      EDIT: Nvm, i'm wrong
      I think it's more because tools have durability/enchantments, so they can't save the extra data in the bundle. they probably only store quantity and item id

  • @jonadabtheunsightly
    @jonadabtheunsightly 3 месяца назад +1

    Yeah, the main use case for bundles is in the early game, when you're exploring and you're like, ooh, a savannah, I should grab a couple of acacia saplings, so I can grow them back home. Oooh, a desert, I should grab a couple of cactus, so I can grow them back home. Ooh, a jungle, I should grab a couple of jungle saplings, a couple of cocoa beans, and a couple of bamboo... You end up with 2-3 of a bunch of different things that each stack to 64, but you don't need a whole stack, you just need enough that you can grow them back home.
    It's *not* intended to be portable bulk storage for large amounts of anything. That's what shulker boxes are for. But by the time you get shulker boxes, you already have every kind of sapling and renewable crop and whatever already, back at your base, so you have no reason any longer to wander around picking up 2-3 of each thing. In the early game, when you still need to collect all that stuff, shulker boxes are out of reach. This is where bundles come in.
    The closest equivalent to a bag of holding, is probably an ender chest full of shulker boxes.

    • @orestes1984
      @orestes1984 3 месяца назад

      The only problem with using your ender chest that way is that you only have one inventory in all of them. I'd say the ender chest is more like a portable space for stuff that you have to take home with you and can't sacrifice good for carrying end game stuff which is in the name really. If you're going to the Nether to mine ancient debris, to get nether scraps, or looking for them in bastions, where you will also find the elusive Pig Step music disc, then they're useful for that. I wouldn't just use the ender chest to create a mess of crap you're just randomly collecting. It's for the most important stuff you don't want to throw away.
      Think of an ender chest like your bank/security vault. In that sense it can only be accessed by you on the server. If someone else accesses it they will see their inventory but not yours.
      I guess in that sense they're also useful on private servers, or realms where grief protection is turned off because it allows you a space to protect your most valuable items that aren't in your inventory while logged off.

  • @orestes1984
    @orestes1984 3 месяца назад

    Bundles are experimental still, they have been for a long time (like 10 updates or so). They're kind of useful for grabbing a bunch of stuff of similar kinds, especially early on in the game. If you want a chest (with a bit less storage as they carry 27 items like a single chest) you can carry everywhere then you need to go to the end and kill a shulker to get shulker shells. The end is the only source of shulker shells in vanilla. If you want a chest that you can access anywhere you go no matter where you put it down in the world you need to get an ender chest by killing an Enderman and then going to the Nether to kill a blaze. Once you have an ender pearl and have created blaze powder you can create some obsidian to make an ender chest.
    The ender chest is a real game changer in vanilla because once you create one it can be accessed from wherever you are in the over world without having to go home. It's protected and for storing your most important stuff you don't want others to loot.
    Shulkers are game changers because you can put them down anywhere, fill them and break them without losing their contents and then put them back in your inventory. Shulkers are the true way to carry a bigger inventory. Bundles bundle stuff of the same together, while they reduce the amount of inventory waste they're also kinda limited to the types of things you put in them as you noticed.

  • @someonesane
    @someonesane 2 месяца назад +1

    When it comes to tools/weapons, you should be aiming for better materials and enchantments to handle the amount of them you need carry. Once you get a diamond pickaxe/axe/shovel/etc. with unbreaking and mending on them, you don't tend to need to carry another, unless you're digging for a huge project. If you're working with lower end materials, just carry a stack of the materials needed to make the tools/weapons as you go. So, don't make ten iron pickaxes. Just carry a crafting table, iron ingot, and sticks. Once you get ahold of shulker boxes, you'll be able store a lot more. Each space in a Shulker box (27 spaces total) can hold a full stack of an item (so 64 blocks, or 16 eggs, or 1 weapon/tool) and you can pick the box up (with the items inside) as an item itself. You can then store the inventory full shulkers in an ender chest (which also has a 27-space capacity). So, if you have an ender chest and 27 shulker boxes, you'll be able to carry 46,656 blocks (not counting your free inventory space), or 11,664 eggs (they stack to 16), or 729 weapons or tools.

  • @JasonTaylor-po5xc
    @JasonTaylor-po5xc 3 месяца назад +1

    Bundle is going to be epic in the early/mid-game as it is very common to go exploring and run out of inventory space because of a lot of mixed items that otherwise waste space. Condensing them into bundles is very useful. Of course, late game (post-Ender dragon), shulker boxes are better.

  • @jennymarshall2872
    @jennymarshall2872 3 месяца назад +1

    Always the best practice to not turn on experimental features on your main world. It can cause unknown issues.
    The bundle will be most helpful when gathering things. Like TNT (from temples) saplings, seeds, string or mushrooms. Or in building when you have a small number of slabs or stairs. I think they will be awesome.
    Non stackable items are always gonna take that 1 slot. Tools, enchanting books, etc.

  • @neetscholar4149
    @neetscholar4149 3 месяца назад +1

    Bundles only allows you to hold up to 1 stack worth of items.
    Most items stack up to 64. each of those basically occupies 1 slot out of the 64 Bundle limit.
    Some items like Snowballs and Eggs stack up to 16. In other words, they are each worth 4 slots out of the 64 limit.
    Tools only stack up to 1. So they are worth all 64 slots of your Bundle.
    So they are mostly useful to... well, bundle up a bunch of crap that you got like 2-5 out of them to free up slots.
    like when you explore, and gather a few seeds, a bunch of different flowers and saplings. bunch of wood logs of 4 different types...
    Another way to use them is to carry the ingredients to craft Suspicious Stew. Once crafted, Stews don't stack.
    but in one Bundle, you could carry 20 Brown Mushrooms, 20 Red Mushrooms, 20 flowers (I recommend Dandelions or Oxeye Daisies), and 4 bowls.
    That way, You can carry 2 or 3 Bowls already made, and craft a bunch more when needed without filling up your whole inventory with 20 stews that don't stack.
    I guess you could use them to carry all your maps around. But picking out the right one out of it would be a nightmare once you got more than 20.
    Also, you can use dyes on Bundles to color-code them. Or rename them in an Anvil, probably.
    Helps you sort the crap in your inventory.
    But yeah, overall Shulker Boxes are way better, although endgame items.
    The huge difference in inventory capacity both can carry is so great, Bundles only win in very niche situations.

  • @purplejellytotPJT
    @purplejellytotPJT 2 месяца назад +1

    I've been using bundles for a long time (java player here lol), and I'm a huge fan of them. They're incredibly useful early game.
    Let's say i find a village - i grab a few potatoes and carrots and beetroot seeds, to start my farm - into the bundle!
    I go caving and get some resources. I craft the raw ores into blocks (raw iron block, coal block, etc) - into the bundle!
    I even use them late game for some things. I have a bundle which has a few of each dye colour inside, for example.

  • @noobdernoobder6707
    @noobdernoobder6707 3 месяца назад

    Bundles are just for small amounts of random stuff. What you need is Shulker Boxes and maybe an ender chest holding them. That's how it is done on Anarchy Servers to keep quite and amount of important stuff safe from others and also safe for the case you die. But for that setup you would unfortunately have to complete the entire game first and unlock the end by killing the ender dragon. Until then bundles are quite handy to store the random single item pickups, but that's it. Btw as long as you do not enchant your tools you can put all necessary items needed to craft the tools into your bundle, plus workbench and maybe a chest that you place locally to store your crafted tools in, then.

    Thank you for this video. I'm using a mod for bundles in my world as I forgot to activate it prior to starting my vanilla world. Shulker boxes will solve all your woes... they are basically chests you can carry. Unfortunately you have a lot more that you need to do before you can obtain the parts required to make shulker boxes.

    The Bundle is useful in the exploration aspect of the game where you get lots of 1's and 2's of items.
    If you want to carry Lots of stuff, the answer you're looking for are Shulker Boxes.
    Shulker Boxes can hold 27 stacks of items, and do not drop the items when broken. To Make one, it is 2 Shulker Shells and a chest. Shulker shells drop from Shulkers... Found in End Cities (late game area).

    Bundles are Great! I always keep one on me, it helps to contain all the single items that take up a slot in your inventory. They are Not meant to hold Tools or weapons, but are great for keeping in say a chest of Wood, where you have stacks of logs, stacks of planks and then 1 trap door, 1 oak door, 1 birch pressure plate etc.. all those odd ball items I put in the Bundle to save space and keep my chest organized

    i think ill adapt to it, i can now see how bundles can be useful when dealing with small amounts of many different items. i think its good for the early game since past midgame most small items that would be common to put in bundles will be automated or at least have a consistant supplies of and so you can usually make a quick decision of discarding those in order to pick up more valuable items during caving or exploring. i also believe it would be nice to have at least 2-4 tools per bundles, at least with two you get to have a silk touch and fortune within a single slot and you just get to swap between them which is nice, i usually only bring 1 type of tool at once since i usually plan ahead what im going to mine for. so yeah it can be pretty neat for sure, but my old habits will probably still be there and i might just end up forgetting that the bundles exists unless i play a lot with them

The biggest thing with them is stacks as you've noticed. Some items can be stacked into 16 items, most items can be stacked into 64, if you put a tool in it you get 1 because tools can't be stacked.
      If you want more storage you need to go to the end and kill a shulker to get shulkers to get more inventory space. A shulker is the same as a single chest and can be carried and broken. The bundle is smaller parcel of stuff that I guess in the end could go inside a shulker to free up more inventory space.

    @DrRayB445 3 месяца назад +2

    Since the bundles fill with one stack of coal, I’d say they are crappy, great idea but horrible execution. We have needed a backpack or bundles forever to extend that mid game experience. Bundles should be exactly like shulkers but half the inventory. This would eliminate the rush to the end just for shulkers, which ultimately causes me personally to loose interest in the game temporarily due to how much of a grind it can be getting to the end to have extra storage while adventuring.
    Hope they change the workings of the bundle to allow minimum 8 individual stacks no matter the material, also need to allow tools and armor is a must.
    As of now the bundle serves as a decoration I place in an item frame.
