Imagine if planting saplings in soul soil turns them into dead bushes to show how soul soil absorbed life in the first place.
Perfect 👍
that's a great idea and don't think it would be too hard to do either
@@brettwinterton4805 it’s so simple, it can even be a datapack
LISTEN TO J.ENDERMAN, MOJANG!!!
Neat idea

Fun Fact: You can load a crossbow with Fireworks that have a Firework Star. This effectively turns your crossbow into a rocket launcher which is great for crowd control if there are a large amount of mobs grouped up together like during a raid.
Will it hurt me if I'm too close range like a rocket launcher?
@@kioshekat7931 Yes
No it doesn't work
I already tried it
@@monikabaack7950 put the rockets in your off hand
Bedrock or java?
That tree tip is unironically so useful when expanding a village. Idk why I never thought of planting a tree where I want the corner columns to go
Handy hint, carry a book and quill for making notes like coordinates. Or, use an anvil to name a tool or armour piece your base coordinates so you can always find your way home.
Yay! I'm not the only one who uses a book and quill wherever I go! Improves immersion in my opinion.
I have 3 separate books and quills for all 3 dimensions
I usually just use the notes app on my phone
@@Talyuhhhyeah that’s a lot easier
I carry a book around so I can note the coordinates of interesting places/structures
a big mistake early player tend to do (i know because that was me), is making the house extremely big while having very little in it. I use to make big houses and not know what to do with all that space. I know that in the moment, we all allow our creativity to run wild and think bigger is better. When in reality, efficiency is much better. What a lot of early players don’t realize is that making a big house takes twice as much resources, twice as much torches so mobs don’t accidentally spawn inside the house, and twice as many tools and work stations to fill in all of that empty space. It’s also dismotivating having a big house with nothing on it. It makes the brain feel like it’s never enough. I now prefer a small/ compact house with all of my basic needs available to me at all times.
I agree. I made a massive house at the start of my world a few years ago and now I’m stuck with this massive house with 5 floors and only the ground floor is properly used. But I guess it looks nice.
@@V1Salvo five floors isn’t bad fam, but what i did is start with two floors, and from their, all my other floors were dug underground. I use the second floor for all my needs and the first floor serves as a entrance, storage area, and i use ladders to go up and down insides of making stairs. It’s all about accessibility and functionality
@@Tripod9648 that’s kind of similar to mine. I use ladders too and the first floor is mainly just storage and basic utility blocks like crafting, furnaces, etc. In basement I have my bedroom, where I display the dragon egg and head. I also have the enchanting setup there.
On second floor I have my brewing potions room with a nether wart farm as well.
On third floor it is another bedroom (different theme) and there is also an L-Shaped balcony out to watch the sunset.
But then the fourth floor is pointless. Nothing there. My house overall is poorly designed (although I do like how it looks). But the thing is, it’s way too big to justify breaking it down and rebuilding it. It’s such a weird design too, even though it looks nice, and that means it would take an incredibly long time to break it down. I can’t just adjust it, I would have to completely break down the house and everything in it. I’d rather just make another base if I really have to. I also have a mountain house but it’s pointless and probably only for aesthetic purposes. It’s not a great mountain house anyway and it is also a bit too far from my main camp, despite it being connected via a path.
@@V1Salvo lmao i related so much to the mountain house because i also tried to do that. I love aesthetic houses and builds. Their so incredible, but playing Minecraft made me realize my limitations as a “builder.” A lot of Minecraft builders set a foundation, use mods to manipulate terrain to suit their aesthetic designs, and have been doing houses for years. My best advice is to start small, preferably in a new world and keep it basic and slowly add on to it. I don’t put all my stuff in my house either. I have Iron farms, trading halls, villager farms, etc.. Just don’t overdue it and think too big, think reasonable then start adding on to it lmao
@@V1Salvo4 floor worth of storage is what I see from a 5 storey building..
Shear spider webs and then break them down from your inventory to get 9 string instead of one from using swords!
Edit: aaaaand they removed it in the 1.20 update and I'm appalled 😭
Really thanks I did not know that
Or just collect them for later decorative use, as they are like dead bushes: You can't farm them. World generation is the only way of obtaining them.
I place them against droppers so items always drop perfectly straight down in full stacks, which saves tons of materials not building drop chutes, lot less hoppers, etc. Cobwebs are incredibly handy to use
Or you can build a mob farm and load up a chest full of them. Some serious mob farms out there in youtube that is worth the effort to build.
definitely, whenever i find a mineshaft i always steal the webs
In tunnels and mines I always place torches on the right hand wall to avoid getting lost in underground mazes.
13:00; you can also craft suspicious stew on bedrock the same way you can on java: a flower, a brown mushroom, a red mushroom, and a bowl. However, the most efficient method would be the brown mooshroom since it doesn't require any mushrooms only a bowl and a flower.
yes
Correct
@Lucas Garcia your 83 subscribers agree
@Lucas Garcia what content 💀
@Lucas Garcia bro your 83 subscribers disagree, also, how? Content is subjective, so therefore you cannot be correct
1) I like the use of chat as a way of taking notes within the game, but I like using a Book even better. That way, you always have the coordinates to key locations on hand. I've also started using signs with coordinates on them to point me in the right direction.
2) I use the Wall as a "vertical slab" all the time, but I still want/think we need actual vertical slabs. There are plenty of things that we can do with a vertical slab that are not possible with Walls.
3) Cave houses are perfect for starter houses and remote bases, and I agree that it is an often underused building technique
4) I've gone to using Lava Buckets for smelting almost exclusively since they added Pointed Dripstone and the ability to make a Lava Farm.
5) I'm still impressed with the glass-covered main end island.
for 2, the problem is, how would we place vertical slabs?
@@CallumsArmy I'd imagine it would be similar to stairs and doors where the direction you face impacts the placement of the vertical slab
@@boop_beep_sheep4876 yeah, but we already have that with placing the slab on the top or bottom half of the area
I take pictures of my screen with the coordinates...it's easy and I know immediately what they link to
I've been using the chat for coordinate notes for years when I just need a quick, temporary reminder. I use a book for long term notes, though.
2:00 another way to keep your portal coordinates could be to rename a tool/armor that you’ll always have on you to those coordinates
You can also name a banner and place it down on ur portal and it will show up on your map
@@j-hydragaming cool idea! But that’ll only work on Java, that feature isn’t on bedrock yet for some reason
@@GhastandNico oh I didn't know, I tried on my switch but It never seemed to work
@@j-hydragaming yeah the switch is on bedrock edition so it wouldn’t work there either
Or you could bring obsidian and a compass with you and just find your way back home in the overworld
You can use chorus fruit to be a shulker antidote cuz it always makes you tp on a solid block
sick
17:53
You can also light up the bottom of the ocean if you build glass columns from the surface to the ocean floor.
Another benefit of chorus fruit is that it can be eaten at full hunger, which means you can use it to pump up your saturation to the maximum and heal faster.
Good one
Is that real? I’ve never tried it. Sounds useful!
Another useful tip for Lightning Rods
Have one outside your Iron or other Villager Farms to prevent them from becoming Witches
Not related but my villager, fenced inside a house, still strangely became a witch after a thunderstorm. I have no idea how. The house was still perfectly in tact, and one day I walked in and the villager was a witch. He couldn’t have escaped since he was fenced off AND also inside the house. If the thunder got him through the house, wouldn’t the house have set on fire?
I used a village stable for pigs just outside my house in Java edition.
It got stuck by lightning twice, destroying some of the fence and turning the pigs to zombie pigmen.
After that I put a lightning rod there.
The "cave house" is one I've been doing for a longgggg time. In almost every world I play in my first home is in a cave, hill, or mountain. I dont have to spend much time getting resources to build it since Im carving it out and I can focus on staying safe through the night.
0:58 That is quite risky doing it near a wooden house...
@C-Hermann Lakehunt-C why add the egg emoji at the end lmao
Yes
@@elitecereal lmao the comment is deleted
@@sangeetagrover4328 lol that's funny.
@Lucas Garcia bot
The lava buckets as fuel are cool, but I prefer to set up a 100% automatic bamboo farm, then use a full stack as fuel instead 😊👌
I use kelp like a mad man. I just keep filling my auto smelter and I get so much blocks. Same idea.
There’s a glitch that allows you unlimited carpet that you can use as fuel
I didn't even know you can use bamboo as fuel..... I been kelping it up like a mad man like grumpyNomad over there.
@Garrett Campbell
Only in Java. Bedrock doesn't have that.
We Bedrock players used to have scaffolding able to smelt 6 blocks per scaffolding block, but that got nerfed.
Make a carpet generation machine, it's faster
Your map can also be used to navigate even in the nether, your symbol on the map turns red and as long as you know where your base is on the map you could easily be able to get back to your base provided you find or build a portal near your base
I really love "the more you know" facts that pop up on the side. 10/10 recommend doing again lol
I would just use golden carrots instead of dandelion suspicious stew. Almost as good and much easier to obtain since doesn't need a mooshroom, plus stacks like you said
@Lucas Garcia no my content is better
You can craft the sus stew.
Still could be useful if ur struggling for good early game or spawn in a mushroom biome. Stacking is priceless tho
@@theaidanmann no, my COMMENT is better
@@mincat2472 no, my comment is better
One extra tip if you play on Realms, rather than using chat to note down coordinates, take a screenshot and post it to the “timeline” posting thing, and title it the coordinates of what you’re screenshotting
That way anyone in your realm can use it as a collection of locations and builds with their coordinates
I love carving houses into ravines. Especially if the ravine goes straight down to diamonds. If there's lava, all you need is water buckets and then boom, instant floor :D
I like how some of his ideas aren’t even that good, so it’s kind of funny when they don’t work and he just laughs at it
I noticed the style of this video was quite different. I personally really like this change!
Hi
ok
I personally think he did this before. I watched him as my first RUclipsr (2015)
First minecraft youtuber
"Chat has uses beyond censoring you in your own single player game" 💀
I write down notes and coordinates on my in-game "Book & Quill". Easy to keep track of, and has worked for me for years.
Don't forget to COPY YOUR WORLDS to use as a backup in case you fall in lava with it tho!!
Keep your Book & Quill in your Ender Chest, leave your "Primary" ender chest at your base, and then just carry around an extra ender chest with you. If you die, you'll lose the one chest, but your book will remain. Just craft another one to carry around with you and you'll be just fine. Additionally, you can craft a bunch of shulker boxes, and use them for different things (tool chest, food chest, etc.), and keep them in your Ender chest as well. That way you can carry around a ton of gear and it only costs you a single inventory space.
I liked to use a book and quill to store ideas for projects and other important things. It helps me remember what I was doing after long hiatuses. The more lived-in my world looks, though, the more I can remember. Otherwise I feel creeped out by the familiarity but lack of recall.
I also use book and quill.
You should use fortune III on your crops, pretty useful if you're looking to trade with farmers villagers.
I love the funny jokes you make every now and then 😂 It keeps the video from being one of those boring tips and tricks video’s and makes it more original ❤
2:20 When there's Wall variants for everything that has a fence variant, then I'll be (mostly) satisfied. Until then, just having stone Wall "vertical slabs" isn't quite enough...
If you’re going to use golden tools and or armor, I’d highly suggest you enchant them with not only mending but also unbreaking and maybe others as well.
When making your own village, use iron doors with buttons inside and out to keep villagers safe. They're too stupid to push buttons, so they'll stay safely inside their houses. If one escapes, break the door down and ring a bell, he'll run back into his house and you can just re-place the door.
Wow, he used a lot of Kirby sound effects in the intro!
AND ALSO POSSIBLY THROUGHOUT THE VIDEO
@C-Hermann Lakehunt-C The bots are getting racist now??? Wtf
@@Jevmin Yeah, I saw it.
it got deleted
@@sangeetagrover4328 Or reported, either way, it's gone.
Unless you're talking about the video, in which case, AW MAN 😭
I love mining all materials from a mountain expect most of the stones. Made really cool caves in 1.14 and I got really good hideouts in there with it aswell. Then I smoothed the roads, added pavings, stairs, piston doors, enchanting table, library, living room etc. I actually run out of materials by furnishing it...
I have to slightly disagree with the lava bucket as fuel source thing : for new players in new worlds this is absolutely viable, but when you start needing blocks in bigger amounts for building, having a super smelter with a bamboo farm attached to it is saving you insane amounts of time. Other then that, nice Video :-)
I was picking up things in the desert when I was newer to MC and the sand fell out below me, and I went straight into lava at the bottom of the ravine and lost everything I had.
New fear unlocked
Dang, that sucks. I hate falling into lava and having no way out
I had something similar happen recently. I stopped on a small beach to sleep. I placed down the bed, and as I clicked to sleep, the sand gave way. When I woke up, the bed was saved by one block.
I've been playing Minecraft for around 7 years now, and I almost always still dig cave houses.
Suspicious stew having the best saturation yet being unstackable is stewpid.
If you plant trees in a zigzag or use 4 spruce saplings to make giant spruce you can just plant a solid wall around a base or village etc. Personally I like the mega spruce walls because they are really imposing (especially if they are surrounding a tower or giant tree house build in a dark forest) but birch zigzag walls look great in certain areas and are more uniform.
Something I would like to add to this list: Fire Resistance potions when going to the Nether (removes ½ the danger).
Brewing station, blaze powder, magma cream, nether wart, redstone dust water bottles. You'll need to gather most of these from the Nether but after that it gets easier to venture back and forth.
Make an awkward potion with the wart, then add magma cream (from Magma cube mob) makes the potion, then add redstone dust to increase the duration to 8min.
Just get Notch Apples or Fire Resistance Potions in the overworld before going to the nether lmao
@@FusionCyborg notch apples can't be crafted.
16:23 PUT IT ON YOUR PORCH ITS A SAFETY PORCH
that'll be 50 bucks
"This gets you the dead bush, an item that cannot be renewed"
So true, young man, so true.
i use dead bushes in autumn and winter themed gardens as we dont have seasons, it makes people coming across my homes in multiplayer rather interesting XD., im not great at building but all my villages have walls and i have become rather good at making turets along the walls, i tend to do a 3 wide wall (so wall, path, wall) then build out the turrets at intivals giving me a high place.
my first home in any world is a "cave" house, normally a 5 by 4 hole in the side of a mountain or in a actual cave, the back walls tend to end up as furnaces with blast furnaces and smokers sprinkled in, the floor enevatibly ends up as chests and anvis and the side walls end up being made up of utility blocks (chrafting table, smithing table, loom, stonecutter, grindstone, brewing stand, cauldron, the only thing that actually stays as a natural feature is the cave facing wall, if im feeling fancy ill hang a lantern an use windows otherwise ill just do a sky light with a block of galss at ground level from he central block XD.
I almost exclusively watch ibx2cat but i've just got back into minecraft in the last week, great timing on the video popping into my recommended, I'm already finding myself unfamiliar with the latest updates so nice one
I have a whole island for Endermen in my world. It's a giant pyramid and a desert island with a enderman eggs in a dispenser. They are free to mold the island to their liking.
Where do you get enderman eggs
man that Safety Torch reference is a real deep cut
Gather magma blocks from ruined Nether portals. Then place them in a line underwater where there are salmon and cod. You will have an unlimited source of food… and collect a fair amount of bones.
I write my coordinates using a book and quill.way better than typing it out in chat,plus you can log cool places along the way
for early game tho putting it in chat is nice
@@obi-wankenobi2851 Does noone have a notepad and pencil irl?
I feel like you should be able to plant saplings on sand and after a while (maybe when on dirt it would grow into a tree) it would dry out and turn into a dead bush
The infinite lava farm is my all time favorite farm
next minecraft update: disabled writing coordinates in chat to not let children tell their coordinates in real life
@C-Hermann Lakehunt-C ayo bot why tf you talking like this???
I invented a fireplace design that uses lava, hidden in the floor, to light barrels (which light aflame, but aren't destroyed). Observer clocks constantly update the lava, so the flames burn basically indefinitely despite using no netherrack, magma blocks, or soul sand.
To add to the building with wood, you can make an easy flammable wall around any village by just placing the saplings down.
The dead bushes can also be found in Giant Taiga biomes
I'd suggest a better tip than 13
Instead of using milk you should use honey since it's removing just the negative effects (if you can choose)
So milk bucket is like a "clear all" drink while honey is like a "clear everything that kills me" drink.
@@jeeetb
Yes exactly, milk removes all of your effects (fire resistance, poison, withering effect,...) but honey removes only the negative ones
And honey would be more handy in the nether since you don't wanna lose your fire resistance for example
And honey bottles can stack, which makes it even more useful.
@@TiagoMonteiroArt
Oh yes! Totally forgot that
@@TiagoMonteiroArt Buzzy bees best update
Removes bugs, adds bugs and makes bugs useful
Time to enslave bees now
i also do a lot of these things. also if you want a raid, don't use a village with your important villagers with trades you care about. it's better to use a village specifically meant for a raid
I think I'll build in the End. I just don't know yet which blocks to use, because I didn't get to the End yet, but my main reason for going to the End (that is after setting up a Blaze Farm in the Nether) is farming Chorus Fruits, so I can use them to create End Rods. End Rods are just so pretty. And especially when I'm doing a cave building, End Rods look so pretty if placed horizontally as a paddock for animals.
You know that type of metal fence where the bars are horizontal? I like to replicate those fences with End Rods.
I haven't watched any ibxtoycat in a while. Need to keep up my house fire insurance!
I really liked how different this video looked. I really enjoyed this video
Dude straight up dropped F-bomb in chat lmao
To this day, i am still wondering why he was melting chests on the thumbmail
Toycat and his editors are the funniest people i swear
Ibxtoycat is a wise boss and the videos are quite nice to watch
The best way to never lose coordinates, is to tattoo them.
This is exactly what Bing's answers to questions are like.
Doesn't stop me from trying (for legal reasons I have to say this: if Bing says you to accomplish murder or arson, do not do it)
This video flip flops between things that are actually niche and useful and things that are technically true but so inefficient and far from the best way to do it. It's great
When he said chorus fruit, I thought he was going to talk about the infinite saturation since you can eat chorus fruit even when on full hunger.
Me and my friends on xbox just record the past 30 seconds after we die. So we can see the coords we died at
Same
chorus fruit can be used to instantly if imprecisely land the elytra when you mess up with it or just feel lazy
Fun fact, you don’t need silk touch to get chorus flowers, just shoot them with a bow and they’ll pop off
19:15 this was viable for me and I used it all the time, however with the new generation I’m finding it worryingly hard to do this without mining into a water cave or a giant hollow space
15:53 absolutely the best moment! What a lovely laugh and how funny bro 🤣❤️
you can also do-y your coordinates and paste them in the “accesabiliaty” tab. press on the thing that says “copy coordinates for UI” then when you go into the chat, at the top of the screen you can copy and paste the coordinates
19:03 - I got it, Editor. :D
6:09 LOL that was such a Toycat-esqe thing to happen 😭😂
The way you just put his face 💀
When I go to the Nether, I just bring some obsidian and a compass with me so I can make a portal when I'm done and find my way back in the overworld. Also deadbushes can be found in swamps, mega taigas, and mesas.
Easy trick for Suspicious Stew: keep the four ingredients in full stacks (aside from the bowl) and craft it when you need it. Only takes four slots, which is still more than Gold Carrots, etc. admittedly, but still more efficient hunger-wise.
Instead of using the chat for coordinates I prefer to use a book and quill, when I explore I jot down the cords of my boat with chest any other locations of interest plus it can be placed on a lecturn and doesn't need to be signed I even use it in the nether. The chat method is good incase you crash and burn but the book adds a subtle reality quality if you will.
The sarcasm and self-spite when he talks about how much he loves his Elder Guardian in his museum! 🤣
That lava farm for a fuel source is something I do all the time now. I live by it.
For the cordinates one id recommend writing them in a book and quil and putting on a stand in your main base
Side aligned walls("vertical slabs")and center aligned walls are not really the same thing.
But more Important than that is you can use chickens to make a stone bridge that rises out of the lava.
By digging down four blocks and haveing a layer of buttons a layer of pistons facing upwards and a layer of stone. Then lava off to the side you can have a lava pathway that you can navigate by holding some seeds.
These are like 30 cursed tips lol
4:27 Birch trees do not require spacing. You can just line them all up.
I'd call building into a cave subtractive building instead of additive building. ;)
"I'll see you in the next one, assuming we hit 30." Who has you held prisoner making these videos at gunpoint, toycat? Blink twice if you need help! 😂
Also, I like to use the 2x2 trees (like dark oak) as a wall. Just plant a row of 2x2 trees and voila an instant/tall wall around your base. Bonus points if you manscape the wall and take off all the leaves.. (Idk if this wall trick works on non-java version.)
The tip above should be considered ransom paid to toycat's captors. Please let toycat go, unharmed.
I was wondering if the wither skull chances had changed! In a previous playthrough I killed hundreds of withers, Looting III, 0 skull drops. I ended up never creating the wither. Then, today, I take my Smite 5'er Loot 3 into the Nether and got a skull on the first kill...
If you've never made a house out of a grid of giant spruce trees, you've never played Minecraft as you ought to.
LMAO This is the best video I have ever watched...and Im angry it took me 10 months to find it lol. Subscribed!
I like how this video feels completely unscripted and he was just walking around thinking of random stuff to make a video, I respect it.
Seeing those chests in that furnece made be think you should be able to put a shulker in a furnece and it will smelt everything that can be smelted in that shulker obviously you would have to take stuff out or use a hopper so it doesn't get full
You can put a shulker on a hopper above a furnace, then another hopper emptying the cooked/smelted material into a chest.
So, functionally the same as your idea, but this is in the game now!
The tree thing is a very fun idea but honestly it doesn't seem worth gathering and using bonemeal, then the time removing all the leaves from around your build, just to save the time chopping 16 logs when you're probably gathering wood anyway.
Seems annoying, id rather just use the logs I already spent 45 seconds chopping.
saturation actually stacks so it doesn't matter which order you eat it. you get 14 saturation with golden carrots i'm fairly sure and you can have a baked potato after to have a total of 18 i'm fairly sure. i may be wrong though about the exact numbers
2 fire gags in 1 video! I feel blessed
6:05 Heh, so clumsy. All you have to do is use a different tool (preferably a low-level expendable one) to break the skulk stuff (or coal, Nether quartz, etc) at arms-length, then _switch to the gold Mending-enchanted tool_ to collect the XP & let those delicious orbs repair it. That keeps you from further damaging the tool you want to repair (& potentially losing it like you did), so you don't need as much XP to fix it right up. This swapping method is handy for repairing anything with Mending, even fishing poles & shovels.
"and it's fun, someday we'll destroy the whole world..."
fun fact, thats actually canon in minecraft
what I like to do is build a big ass smelting plant near a lava lake in the Nether.
What I smelt in there? Building blocks. From Netherrack for Nether Bricks, to Stone for Stonebricks. Granted, I'm running back and forth a lot because I am always busy collecting Lava, but it's worth it, since once the Lava is drained, I can mine down to get more Netherrack, for more Netherbricks, and hopefully a lot of Quartz for Redstone builds, and hopefully, maybe even some Ancient Debris from time to time, if I drain enough Lava Lakes. Really, Lava Lakes are hella annoying to deal with if you're mining for Ancient Debris on the lower Bedrock Level, and accidentally hit a lava lake.
Branch mining?!?!
Finally someone calls it the right name.
I've stopped having raids around my villagers. I've had raiders spawn in my in my trading hall (no one died), and in my villager breeder, on glass (all my stored villagers died). There's only the top of one fence post where the raider could have spawned. I've got a large base, fully lit, and fenced.
