Everyone welcome to the weathering effect episode 148. Today's date is June 20th, 2022 and I am Duds or Duds versus known to the rest of the interwebs and I'm Jimbo you may know me as Jimbo slice, 23. So what have you been up to this week Duds? Oh, you know, that's You can project that I was mentioning before Channel 64 season to you sir tapping it. Yep. New season started we started Sunday night, so still the
beginnings. Once the update dropped kind of, you know, give a little bit of time and now the server restarted and my secret is I joined to everyone. Thought Jimbo didn't have a secret. He did have a secret. Hmm I had a secret Secrets out but yeah we started on the channel 64 server and get to play in the new 1.19 which is a lot of fun and a lot of fun. I definitely Rage Quit night one. Yeah. You're you're tell me about that that's not fun. Day 1 and 2 on a new world are
my least favorite. It was like, I'm ready for the end game already. Yeah, I was too. Apparently always enjoyed. I always enjoyed the first couple days. I hate it on the server. Just getting geared up and well, getting geared up. Can be time-consuming. But yeah, I enjoy it. There's like all the things you want to do. You can't do. Yep. That's true. He'll be super careful about everything because your player so fragile. Yeah, I know, it took to Triton shots to kill me. Hmm. Yes, I died.
Your drowned. I made it like so far in Ripple effects, season 4 with just three deaths. One of them coming from Jimbo, you're welcome. And the other like a random glitch. Dog killed me early game, so to die. So quickly, this season's just like that. Well, now that's out the window. I don't care about dying him, I died. I want to see five. Already nice. Yeah, I'll explain later in the show. Why?
But yeah, we're gonna talk about your experience of 119, but on the server, that we started playing on 2064, we've been up to a lot of stuff, so that's what. Yeah, wait, wait, I tell you how how I've done. Yeah, for me, it was just a drowned. I was going looking for a mining spot. Mmm. And for some reason, I decided to do it close to where my season base is going to be why? I don't know. I just thought, yeah, it's out of the way, that'll be fine, whatever all in the way, I'm
finding sunken ships and stuff. So I'm jumping down. Diving, getting the loop from home, but I'm always careful watching for drowned and stuff because I don't have any armor at this point. So I know I'm vulnerable. So I look down. No drown. Jump in the water, no drown. Get close to the ship. In boom. Try to some like, holy crap. So, I swim back up to the top, get in my chest boat, because that's a 119 thing. And that is awesome. Mmm, start to boat a way to just get whoop.
There goes my boat. So now all my Adam items are scattered all over the ocean and then pink, I get hit for the second time and I kill shot. Got you with the kill shot. I was like, that is a sniper of a drowned. They they're accurate. They are. It's crazy. And they're strong, doesn't do that kind of damage when we throw those thing? You know, crap nuts. Yeah, it was pretty nuts. But that caused me to rage quit because of the coal.
I had with me, I had almost two stacks Cole was like a stack 52 and Cole has been so hard to find. I don't pass it up anymore. No, I Always mine. It like the was it the good? Why level 2 - y 90. So basically, you need to be on a big hill or Mountain. Mmm. Yeah, sometimes off the shores, you can see a bunch exposed Stony. Sony beaches at the end of it, you can find it lower but the optimum why level to find it said 90. So when I see it, why level 54, You best bet?
I'm grabbing it? Yeah, I could be going for diamonds and I'll probably get just as excited for V, Nicole. Yeah. Oh, and that man. So, Redstone was such a hard find in ripples using, for, for me. I have more Redstone in the first, two days of channel 64. Then I did the entire length of Channel or Ripple season for. Wow, I'm loaded on Redstone, I got a good. Bit. But it due to take too much time mining. I think I like have three stacks of blocks.
Wow, yeah, that is a lot. I'd I got decent amount of diamonds. I'm close to a stack of diamonds. Oh, and I did take six, I took six diamonds and made two picks. So I combined them. So I have Fortune three efficiency, five, I think breaking on their, I can't remember if it's two or three G's, so I've got a really good. And pick, but it took, it took two picks to make. I didn't get lucky and chanting. Yeah, it wasn't able to change anything yet but I haven't been
on long. I was on Long the first day, but yeah, and then late last night I was complaining about food because that's kind of my next thing I was having trouble with hmm. And it all has to do with where our spawn town is a season, not going to say anymore, but food is kind of a rarity. Mmm. And tareq Jess and me ended up getting together and doing a haugland farm on the roof of the Nether and it took like five minutes done. And as soon as we finish, I had
to go to sleep. So I'm hoping it worked. And we have a ton of food from the Discord notifications. This morning. It does look like it worked. We got some good rates. Nice. I took a lot of time out to try to find food and bring it back or mob. So I should say bring him back to the village that were basing it. Yeah, I've been sharing your sheep. Yeah. Well that's the thing. Well they're not my sheep. You know anyone could take a
sheep or to you know breed them. Take two sheep if you want. Yeah I don't mind I believe I have brought in cheap and I brought in chickens I guess there's a thing about chickens last season like zombies picked up a bunch of the eggs and there was roaming zombies with eggs last season, we weren't a part of that. So I didn't know that.
Inside joke, they're like all node starts again because I brought all these chickens, you know, I didn't know what they were talking about and they explained it was like, well let's try not to get them loose I guess I did think about trying to make one of those generic chicken cooker Farms, mmm, out of your chickens just so because everyone's in spawn town. So we constantly run and give us food. But once we got the haugland farm built it's like right.
Don't need that no more. Yeah, they're kind of just there now, I mean, if you need chickens, To make an egg Farm or whatever. Yeah. Mainly for the eggs yeah you can go ahead and grab a couple of chickens just a couple mobs at brought in to make food or get other resources. That my food was bred me ingested. A lot of exploring the first like ours. So mmm and anytime I found hay bales out of Village. I took them.
Yep it's a good way to get food right there and think I have like 20 pieces of bread left though. So I was getting low. What else I forget? Basically didn't get to eat on all day yesterday. No, I wasn't able to the first day when we did it. I was on very long like I had to work the next day and I was on here until like 11. I think it was and that's not like me, you know, I've been going to bed like 9:00 9:30 at the latest, but I was having so much fun.
They wanted to go do something that you wouldn't normally do on day one that I You to be a part of. So after 20 while doing that you know, I kind of got the hype up and I was just awake playing just having a good time. But yeah, yesterday I had to work. And then right after work, I had to rush over to my good friends wedding. He was getting married. So, wouldn't able to get on yesterday?
And in fact, we are recording on a Monday, because all that happened on Sunday, and we didn't have time to record. Yep, still able to record today. If we can get this episode out, Here pretty quick. Yeah, so this one's a little later. Definitely not Karl's fault. Definitely our fault, definitely Jimbo's full. It'll happen. It doesn't happen too often. Let's see, but it's nice. It's nice to start recording again. Hmm. Yeah. I got my, we do have replay mod
available for the new update. We got a bunch of stuff available. I want to start doing my videos with shaders. So I have all that looks great. The shaders were using. It's a Complimentary imagine or 119 and it looks great. So I'm excited decided to put some clips together and get the ball rolling again. Yeah, I'm definitely going to do a bit of Shader work. I haven't this first episode. This first episode the mess so many things were recorded that didn't need to be recorded.
So many things weren't recorded. That should have been recorded. So for the most part I'm starting from scratch again. Yeah. Just like day 10. I died start from scratch and that Wasn't on camera. So yeah, my idea was we did a skit from ripple effect to channel 64 but we do want to work with, you know a story, you know, involve the how in the world we got to where we're at so we did do a skit and I have a couple more things. I want to record before getting into the narration of day one.
I kind of want to narrate what happened on day one and then get into my regular. Recording. But I do want to do a lot of story replay mod looking cinematic, looking videos to season. It got to be a lot of fun. Might take more work, but should look a lot better and I think me and Casey have our teasers out. That was the one good thing about rage quitting on Saturday is that when I rage quit, I just can't quit and go do nothing.
I have to be productive. So I had knocked out the, the teaser I already had half of it done, so getting the Have really the first half was pretty easy. Yeah. Me watching. Both your teasers. You guys did really well on them. So I plan on doing something similar to that, I never thought. It'd make a teaser though. It's like, I'm going to put this at the beginning of my episode and then roll from there. But yeah, teasers good idea.
Yeah. I was going to put that at the end of a ripple effect episode but honestly I've been so ready for channel 64 that I couldn't bring myself to do anymore. Ripple effect, I just It didn't have the creativity for that. Hmm and I definitely think it showed in like my last two episodes. They were not very good episodes. We weren't too happy with them. I was not happy with them. I was happy with the builds, the builds felt good but the episodes didn't feel like I was
excited about them. Yeah, really I did a lot on my last ripple effect episode 2. Where I knew, I knew what I have to do. Like there's builds in mind. Stuff I still want to do that. I'm going to do but I don't know how much footage. I'm going to get out of these but you know I still have the world with Steve. Yeah. Steve's in my ripple effect episode and I do kind of I would like to get a storyline to where
I can jump from world to world. Yeah, I'm still thinking about that because as of right now with the teaser we ended up in Channel 64, you know, teleporting after eating This cake. So I have to think of a way to try to teleport back. You know, I just don't end up back in ripple effect. Does it make sense? I mean, I could you know technically but to keep the story live, I think it'd be a lot better if I have some kind of reason for me to go back and forth.
Yeah, they're still unfinished business there. I'm still going to record their. She'll go ahead and hop into the news. Yeah, we might we got a lot to cover. The news is there was a snapshot release that looks almost identical to the beta. Mmm, at least in features and such duplicating. The LA, the guidance and chat to move the listener comments. There is one bug fix that. I'm putting out here and I'm just getting just for Jess and tareq, but they were talking
about this. While we are in group chat last night, the arm Growing up creatures. When they spawn that sound is a bug and it is going to be fixed in the next update. Armoring up of creatures. So if a mob spawns with armor, they play the sound as if they're putting the armor on. Mmm. They're not supposed to know that. No, you go to one of the Grinders you hear it? Ah, yet beware you here. It'll get annoying going to say. How did you do this? Listener comments. Yep. In the comments.
This is from SLS via our email. They asked, hey, doesn't drip bowl of your podcast. So, I asked a question, what if my craft 120 was a Structure update? And it would have a apiary for bees a new Village structure or New Village structures? Including a house kind of like a butcher's house, except the butcher wouldn't be, except the butcher wouldn't be the village. Sure, there. It would be a stables, man, and he would use the loom. Not sure if I'm picking up, what he's putting down or what
they're putting down. I don't see villagers getting touched any time soon. Same, which is just pointing because we're still waiting on the Fletcher table functionality, that was promised. What? 115 think. So when was villagers updated, it was 114 villagers updated, right? Yeah. 114 when the pillagers came in and it was the next update that we were going to get Fletcher table functionality. Actually got bees at that time, too. Mmm, hopefully they never touch
the bees. Again, I mean, lesser get me by the frogs. I like the idea of the a prairie, if there was going to be a villager, that's kind of a stable guy. I would just make a stable but again, I don't see Mojang touching Villages. Yeah, same here. It's always nice to have new villagers. I'm on the train now to where I think they're ropey, but it's all they're very useful. Oil to have, but twice feel like they're ope, but you can get so much stuff off of them even trading.
The only thing is, you know, now they can up the trades or the cost of a trade, but then you can lower it. So yeah, there's ways around all that but yeah, villager housing villagers in general. It's probably going to be a while if anything I could possibly see different kind of villagers and other dimensions. You know, I am on the New portal, new dimension thing. So possibly getting villagers in, another dimension will be cool. Different type of villagers, different type of looking
characters. Yeah, that I don't see. Villagers period being touched anymore unless it Studio Pete. Mm-hmm. And Mojang has made a thing about not taking things away. So I don't see that happening except for fireflies except for fireflies. Next questions from soulfire, they say, questions for Dan Jimbo, what is your opinion on farm animals? Such as pigs? Sheep cows, Etc, roaming around in the wild. Do you think there should be more non farm? Animal passive mobs such as deer
or moose? This is not already been asked, don't worry. And I would love to have deer and moose in the game. Oh yeah. The more mobs roaming the Earth, the more lively. It seems, you know, any any type of mobs like I know I talk bad on the beach. But it does give it more life to the world, you know. Just any mob in general. I really, I really want to see birds, you know, I like to see the sky have more mobs involved. Yeah. I want owls, owls? Yeah, house would be cool.
Let's take Phantoms. Get rid of them and then the night, flap flap would be an owl. They'll have glowing eyes. That would be cool. Yes, maybe it's like an Enderman, if you look at them. Yes, they'll get upset. Set. You can look at them during the day but at night, you look at them. They attack. Mmm. Yeah. Passive. Mobs definitely. Mmm. And honestly Pig sheep and cows, they roam free in the wild now. So I don't have a problem with that in mind. I mean in the real world, they
roam free. Yeah, yeah. Cows, you know, pretty rare bit but there are well, even chickens yet, they do have a point with, you know, they are pretty much farm animals. Pigs. There are wild pigs. Yep, I think they're more called boars instead of pigs. It does look like a farm animal pig. Yeah. They're not your typical Pig right? Yeah. I would like to see more wild creatures in the wild. The only thing is like chicken, cows pigs. Like these are Big food sources.
Yeah, that we have. So I think that's why those are the Main three. They do mention cheap here. Yes sheep. Also Michael you need you need wool. Do ya think he just brought him? I think the way it's being done is fine. Yeah, any more would over complicate A system that doesn't need fixing but adding passive creatures, 100% more passive creatures of better yet, the only thing I could see the issue is you have that each thing that they bring to the game.
Each mob has to have some kind of drop. Usually, or some kind of function functionality. So, well, you and any mob you'd bring in. You have to make it special, but deer and moose. I don't know about movies. But like dear, you could get antlers mmm. Or and their hide felt. Yeah, a lot of people eat deer where I'm from same are dear? Yeah, I know around here like a lot of the hunters. Take deer season seriously because it can get overcrowded. With dear. It does.
Yeah, like, the hunting, the deer is not just for sport or for food stuff like that. It's like, it's a necessity hmm. Now, my backyard actually goes up to like a deer Haven. So like that's an off-limits hunting area so the deer can make it there. They're safe, which is cool. Mmm, but man, they'll tear some stuff up if you're not careful. That's the thing. I like to shoot a bow and a lot of people that go to the bow, shoots like to hunt. I've never hunted before. Yeah.
I don't plan on hunting and let's like a life or death situation I guess if I need to survive in the wild you know exactly. Yeah. It's not like deer are running around with guns to you know they're they're they're harmless, they're kind of they're unarmed, you know, they can't shoot back, I'm shooting at a unarmed animal. Why don't I just don't feel right about it. Yeah they're just walking around doing whatever and to get shot at just Just didn't seem right
to me for sport. I get, that's exactly the way I feel, but then you have to bring in the separation of real life in the video game. And you can bet. If there were deer in the video game, I'd find some way to farm them. Mmm, because that's Minecraft. That's what you do. I know Mojang kind of uses as a teaching tool, but if people are making farms in Minecraft, do not get mad at them. Yeah. I feel like I need to say that. Just a video game. These people aren't rounding up. Dear.
Bring them into one by one hole in their backyard. Right? Throwing grass at them to Freedom. Yeah. I would never run at a cow and start hitting it with the accent in real life. You know. This is a game. Yeah. Jump up in the air that makes it harder. Yeah. Jump up in the air towards full swing. Ya know if I saw someone running at a cow I think I would maybe run at them. Yeah that's just stupid or run away because they're crazy that there's something wrong. Wrong with that person.
Yeah, more mobs please. Yeah. Passive or hostile, either way, like more mobs and I will let you read the last, our last question is from Jesse W. They say, hey, just joined, and I have a question. Do you think it's possible for the ancient cities will later become involved with the archaeology update later edit? Like, will you be able to find artifacts if you brush against certain scope blocks and such I think we talked about at least
played with the idea. Entertain the idea that archaeology could lead you to the ancient cities because, as of right now, yeah, we don't have any way of knowing where these ancient cities are there, apparently pretty rare.
Like, what is it stronghold rare, you know, that's how hard they are defined and you have a way to find your way to the struggle, but as of right now, there's no way of knowing where these ancient cities are unless you either look it up or just, Double-cross it, which could take some time. So, yeah. I don't know what it's going to be, but the archaeology update because it was going to come out the same time. Had me thinking that, that could be a way to do that and it made sense.
Yeah. Honestly, I don't think we're getting the archaeology update, know like later later. Later, possibly 25% chance. Mmm, I'll give it a healthy chance, but anytime we've not gotten something in an update. Very rarely. Have I seen it? Make a comeback into a later update? Yeah, of course, it's used to be really rare. That Mojang wouldn't put everything in the update. Yeah, it's just recently that they're really starting to be active in doing, and this is what I think got under a lot of
people skin. It wasn't the update itself, it was the third time in a row. We're not giving you everything we promised and I do sincerely, I take mine Cana as at least a faithful promise things happen but three times in a row, that's rough. Yeah originally with the caves and cliffs we had a what was it? The warden the deep dark. They did mention ancient cities at the time but they did.
They did have you know a little room that kind of entertain the idea of an exhibit that taking the warden and the deep dark out of that update specifically to create the It is understandable. Ancient cities are 10 times better than what we got and that first preview. Yeah, but and that first thing we didn't get mountains, we didn't get Cliffs, all we got were blocks terrain, generation new why levels, which I thought right there the why levels we didn't get that in the first
one? No, you're right. We got Moss. I think it was. We got Moss. We got dripstone deep slate, deep slate. Yeah, but he had the next update, we had the The why level we got the new why levels and stuff. Hmm But we didn't get bundles or archaeology get Nu K generations with the Lusk caves and the terrain was such a good thing too. Hmm. So well done. Yeah. That's what I thought.
Would a held everything back. You know, everything from because we were supposed to get in deep dark Ward and archaeology and the Y levels right at the beginning of caves and cliffs. I was like, man that's a lot. Hmm. That's that is a good bit. How are these? Why levels going to affect the game? That was my first worried when they gave us all this information and actually held that back. And we've got very little from
the first caves and cliffs. But eventually, you know, we're kind of got all of this set for the archaeology from the original caves and cliffs. But yeah, I wouldn't mind getting archaeology back. It's a fun concept desk, but it's kind of one of those things. Where you kind of run into and you want to explore the archaeology area, but I think it was more of like, a trophy type of thing, you know, maybe you get your pot and you get to put decorate, your pot. Exactly.
This is not a main focus of an update or a selling point of an update. It would be the equivalent of finding a jungle temple. Yeah it does involve a little bit of lore to yeah fun for a little bit and And by the time, two years of pass, you're not even looking at those Mmm. Yeah, I mean to this day we still don't know what you can dig out from an archeology site, right?
You know, maybe there is good stuff, like I said, maybe you can get sculpt blocks, you know, when brushing these artifact? No, no, they're saying we would brush skull. Clocks to show hidden things. Okay. Yeah, I don't see that being a thing but no, especially considering scope blocks high. I'd or hold XP.
Yeah, that's true. Yeah. I could see possibly, you know, leading you to ancient cities from brushing these blocks, you know, and then the, maybe a map appears underneath or maybe a tablet Stone tablet or something, to where you can find your way to the ancient cities. That'd be pretty cool. I think that's it for, there's no comments. Yeah, that's all I got. All right, thank you guys. For those questions.
Most of those comments came from our Discord and as the only Is for, you can talk to everyone who works on the show. Easily, just take Rubble JC's word for it. What's going on everybody? I'm Rebel JC and I'd love for you to join our Discord Community. Whether it's taking part in our mending Minecraft, vote sharing your thoughts and opinions on Minecraft, or just chatting with like-minded listeners. The weathering effect Discord has something for everyone joined today by following the
link, in the show notes. Thank you for the Discord, a dribble JC. And speaking of the Discord, it's the only place you can get involved in our mending Minecraft vote this week, we asked you to choose between one of three structures for us to discuss it, improve your choices were Forest, rock ruin portal, amethyst geode in the winter, amending Minecraft this week is Forest Rock.
Hmm, because why would it before you say anything, everyone immediately said, well we need to vote for is Rock because Duds won't have anything for it. That's the one I wanted to win. I got you. You wanted that to win. I wanted that one to win. I was holding quiet. See I was confused on that even being a structure? Yeah, I know at first I was thinking this is terrain generation not a structure but it's I mean it is a structure within the generation but still. Yep.
I mean, even the notes I'm about to give says, it's a structure. So, first I have Pier 39 votes for the forest Rock, which is a lot. Oh yeah, rarely do they hit the upper 30s. Ruin portal, got six votes, and to, for amethyst geode. And those to those other to ruin portal, amethyst, geode, a relatively new, so sure that's why, and to mess with Duds. But a few things here on the force rock. Force rock is a small structure found throughout old-growth Taiga biomes.
That represents a boulder made entirely of mossy cobblestone Force, rocks vary in size and shape and are usually half buried in the ground. Each face of the structure tends to have a cross shape or a square shape, possibly missing a corner or two and that's it. That's all there is on the boards. Rock not much there for Iraq is one of my favorite structures in the game. If you watch Rebel season for you would have kind of figured
that out. Whenever I ran across the forest Rock in the ground, I left it. I purposely built it into whatever I was working on. I had a Nether wart Farm kind of a crop field. The head a forest Rock in there and I left the force Rock there. If a forest Rock ended up in a path, I left it. There, there are several Force rocks underneath my house. I actually really like this thing. It's one of the few things that I think bring a lot of life to Minecraft while being very
stationary. Mmm, mainly because these old Taiga biomes really remind me of North Carolina where I'm from, like, that's what the woods look like in North Carolina. Okay. That's really cool. So, I based my fixes on this and I am going to bend and maybe break a little bit of my rules about adding new things because a lot of people are correct. You You really can't physically mend the structure to be any better without adding things and it's a rock. It's a rock.
I will emit a little bit of defeat in the fact that I'm adding a couple of new things but except for one, one thing is entirely new to the game. And I'm just kind of putting it in there for vengeance, but everything else is already in the game, so it would just be recoding stuff. First thing is mushrooms, mushrooms should grow on these these rocks. Ox every once in a while, not all the time that could see like a side mushroom. Yep. Off to the side of it.
You know, maybe half a mushroom just like we got in the Birch Forest concept art, that would be perfect. Yep, maybe a Mossy mushroom. So we could get a new mushroom. Yeah, like I said, adding a little bit of new stuff but really you could just get away with any mushroom. That'd be fun, right? My next thing, which I'm actually, this is my vengeful thing. You see a rock laying in the ground. Kick it to turn it over. What do you generally find out
of the rock Jimbo? Dirt more lively insects. Yeah, there you go. Insects, so this is Revenge of the fireflies. We're not getting fireflies. We should get little animations of insects scurrying into the ground like we would in real life when you turn a rock over that's been there for a while. Hmm, I think that would be very cool, not physically, new things, just a new animation. Maybe it's like every so many Boulders or rocks, you know that
Yeah, mine out. Yeah, you have a point one percent chance of getting the salmon animation. Yeah. Or maybe they're just there. Yeah, they're just below it. Maybe they have some kind of functionality but that's not form any Minecraft. Understand that. But yeah, that's where you would find them because normally, I mean, before Moss came to the game, well Vines, I guess to, but called mossy cobblestone,
that's where you got. These are from a dungeon or these forced Rock. Sirs, jungle temple. Jungle temples. Yeah, I remember when you couldn't combine Vine in Kabul, mmm, even with Vine and Cobble, you know, it's still, it was rough a little bit to get the mossy cobblestone, but now, with the moss moss is pretty abundant. Yeah, and so is Cobblestone. So yeah, the forest Iraq. You don't have to mind it anymore. You can kind of, let it sit there but that would give you a reason to mine it.
If there's something underneath, yeah, do you remember those Old Vine Farms? And we're like, you just sat in a minecart with shears pointed at a wall. Yes, and you just went back and forth as you combed Vines. Mmm. Oh yeah, yeah. Fine Farms can be rough. Hmm. The final thing is based off the igloo. So the igloo has the secret dungeon down below where you can transform a villager. I really like that.
And I think it would be cool, say you're digging out one of these forests rocks and you find a Her that goes down into like a bunker, kind of like how you have those Doomsday? Preppers nowadays. That are constantly making bunkers out in the middle of nowhere and just there's a rock that hides the doorway. Hmm I think that going considering this is already a structure and that Igloo structures already based in the game. Yeah. You could kind of do the same thing. Yeah.
Make him just as rare. Oh yeah. Yeah. Maybe make the bunker a little bit different than the Villager type. Use it to teach more about Minecraft again. I really do. Not like the Redstone tutorials in the ancient city. I feel like if you've got into an ancient city you kind of know a little bit about the Redstone you nice fairs like a like a trap door to where you'd have to
go into swim mode. You know when you're under the trap door you're in the crawling mode and you can get under there that way maybe like it's a tight spot but their stuff under there I keep I'm thinking. Like when you say that like I'm SpongeBob Patrick Star, hmm. How he lives under a boulder that cut that type of look? I got what you're saying. No, you got a little chair and a TV that could work. That'd be funny. Like the only TV Minecraft and
it's under this rock. Yeah. That could be pretty funny but that's it. That's all I had for Force Rock. I saw that on Carl's list and I've been thinking about that one for a while. I think those are fun men's that you could be done in the game without being too much. Yeah. Like I said this structure is there's a lot of them to be
considered a structure. So you kind of Gotta take it easy when mending this type of structure, you know, you don't want to give it too much because there's hundreds of these things in each biome. So yeah you guys are good fixes. But moving on to our main topic, more 119 talk because we finally have experienced 119 In the Flesh. Mmm, kind of digital flesh. Is that the right way of saying it in the skin, in the skin, in the Minecraft skin? Quite literally for me as I'm in my skivvies.
Yeah, yeah, it's a new look. Well, it's an old look. I brought back the the whole Idea of me not introducing my new skin which has been done and has been quote unquote. Leaked if you're looking at some of the promo, art for channel, six for season two is, I was trying to create shorts based on my last two ripple effect episodes the to intros I really like the intros and thought they would do as shorts but they're too long for some reason. YouTube does not like under two
minutes. It has to be under a minute. Yeah. And that basically just Since the internet so I didn't make them but I went back and I watched our Casual Friday short with Carl mmm and just how funny that turned out. I was really happy with it. Yeah and upper the will but that's where the skin came from.
Yeah. When I saw you use that skin, I was thinking ìwell I wanted to, you know, because we were counting the same situation of how we ended up on the new server but I when I lost all that stuff, oh my PC, that skin was one of them. So I'd have to redo it that in half the time. Mmm. Yeah, so I kind of, I do have the same skin from last season so I didn't don't have anything to reveal their. I'll be in the new skating either by the end of this
episode for early next episode. It was just it was mainly for a joke that I thought was funny in my teaser. So but yeah, anyways I heard you have a rant about my favorite blue Buddies. Yeah, first thing I want to cover with my 119 experience. So Casey, and I Casey plays, he's with this, as well as you mentioned with the teaser, he has this teaser out as well Casey and I wanted to go do some
mining. So we went off towards the jungle to get some wood and as we enter the jungle, we see a Pillager Outpost and lo and behold. There are two allays In this Pillager Outpost, we got extremely lucky. We didn't know.
It was right there. We knew there were some nearby, but right there, there, they were more like, okay, do we need to get geared up before running into this pillow drought post because it can be dangerous if you're not prepared and we looked at each other, we're like no, no, we're not going to get geared up. We're getting those allays right away. So we ran in their dogs, a couple bullets, but there weren't as many Pillager spawned at the time. So it was a good opportunity and
we got an l.a. The first mob that I was able to befriend is an islet and I was real excited. Me Casey ran out of there. I gave him a piece of copper and he follow me everywhere. Which sounds great, right? Yeah. Sounds like a great thing. You know, you got this little buddy with you. I actually named him Todd to me. And Todd went mining because I couldn't, I guess I could have blocked him in somewhere but Didn't think about it at the time.
So me and Todd are, you know, we're wandering around, he's doing well, you know, he's dodging arrows from skeletons and what not until I get into this cave and there's lava everywhere and Todd doesn't know any better. Apparently pod swims right into a lava column and dies. Oh no really fast. Like it's not like he took damage flew away and then died. He wouldn't in the lava. A few seconds later died because he couldn't get out, you know, he's kind of stuck into slow motion of the lava.
Yeah, he's trying to swim in the lava. Yeah and I kind of seen it coming and I was yelling at Todd. It's like Todd, Don't Go Near that. Yeah. I was trying to tell him but he didn't listen to me and he went right into the lava Taj, you idiot. Yeah, and I've only had him for like, 10 minutes and then he died, you know? And I know it's these guys don't come around too often, you know, they're kind of rare.
And I was so heartbroken. But then again like the allay their kind of annoying to have with you at all time. Yeah they could be your little buddy, they're adorable. Looking the way they fly around and I was I was mining copper and then just running to the next thing and he was picking it up for me and throwing it at me, you know, later on. I was like this is so cool. Yeah, he's I got this little guy here and he's helping out. Help me pick up all these
blocks. I couldn't, I wanted to give him another thing to help. Remind her to help me gather because I didn't want Copper at the time I was looking for iron so I can grab iron and run off and he would grab the iron for me if I missed Eddie her drop down to where I couldn't get it. He could get it. Hmm But no I couldn't give him
anything else. I couldn't give him anything but the copper he had the copper I even tried to right click with it, you know with near him with the iron and I couldn't give him that. So I was upset about that I was upset about him his path fighting into the lava. Wouldn't Roar was Thinking and yeah it's it is it's going to be ideal like it's probably going to be if you're going to have them as a little buddy, give him a total because they gon die.
Yeah, as rare as they are. And their health is not the best even though it would stop bad. But and they regen but yeah, Suze goal off of me and they're pretty much they're done from there when here and thinking, other people on the server, have found the LA's. And from what I've seen, their biggest gripe is They don't follow very well is that they're super slow? Mine followed pretty well that's what I thought the pathfinding would okay other than the flying
into the lava thing. Yeah. But I haven't gotten to work with the allays closely to see ya. Funny thing is, you know, Casey had one also and when my dad died I noticed his wasn't around. He like lost his or his died, too. I don't know. If it ever came back far as I know it is a Lay's gone to while very well could have went Lava. In that case because the cave we were at was kind of open. It kind of seems like this is what these things were designed for.
Hmm. And doesn't seem like they're functionalities. Going up. I'll have to watch more people. I haven't really watched any content creators who have got the LA's, except for maybe decoy and decoy just went and got the allays. He hasn't really done anything with them yet. Okay. Yeah. We'll have to keep an eye on that. Yeah, plan on putting all that footage in there. I recorded everything. I hit replay mod footage and record on OBS, you know. So I got everything I record it.
Also I plan on putting that to show everyone what happened there. So how was your 119 experience right off the bat? Found a mangrove swamp? They're absolutely beautiful, I love them. They're exactly what. I think the woods beautiful basically, the entire swamp area is great. It's a great buy them. It's exactly what I wanted it to be and I feel Vindicated. In the fact that this is what I was most excited for not the ancient cities.
And I've been watching a lot of YouTubers and twitch streamers, go to ancient cities and it feeling very underwhelming added the 4 or no, I'm sorry, Ed the five I've watched four of them have said, dilutes not worth it. Yeah. So it wasn't worth the pain of mainly finding an ancient city because traversing, the ancient city wasn't that much of a pain. They all had tons of wool on Them.
And basically, you can just Bridge everywhere if you pay attention to the skulk sensors and shriekers and stuff, you're okay, yeah. Mangrove swamp, two thumbs up, I really like that biome. I can't do a full fledged base idea. There might do some kind of building structure there the season. I don't know yet but it's beautiful. Yeah I haven't been able to get there yet, I think I went the
opposite way. I think the jungle was the opposite way and I Kind of made a little mining quarters there. I guess you can call it. I did find a spawner that way so that you know, that's the main reason why I kept going back that way. Yeah, I do want to see The Mangrove, haven't really got to experience it yet, you know, get some would get a few saplings have that with me, but yeah, that's one thing I didn't find in. I also didn't find it doing all the caving.
I've done, I've done a lot been around a lot and no deep dark yet, and we know now, that At in the deep dark, you don't have to go to ancient city to find a Shrieker or a catalyst, or the sensors of course. And, you know, of course, the sculpt blocks in the skull veins or Vines they're available as well, in any deep dark. But yeah, you can get every block available skulk wise in just a regular deep dark bio. But that also means you can run into the warden in these biomes.
But yeah, I wasn't able to find any. I did want to Come across one of those though. I didn't have silk touch to get these items yet. I was still curious to find one, just, to know it's there, and to be able to come back to that. Yeah, the good news is, by the time everyone here is the stuff. We will be well past the geared up stage. Yep. XP Farms are finally popping up on the server. People have been to the end and already have a light Rose.
Yeah, yeah, XP Farms are going to pop up relatively quickly, which means we're going to start getting In geared up quickly, which means buildings going to progress and stuff like that. So yeah, hopefully more stuff soon. Yeah, I did want to talk about that too didn't mention. I'd kind of teased it at the beginning but I probably should have just mentioned it because it's not a 119 thing. But the server went to the end before I was I was about to get
off. And then add a couple members was like, okay, we're going to go fight the dragon. Do you want to come? I'm like, well yeah, yeah, I want to go fight the dragon. Then I noticed, like everyone's it like gold and iron armor and I'm like, are we ready for this? Like does anyone have a bow besides me and my durability on the boat that I got from a skeleton was very low. You don't ya get a good bow from these and yeah, are we dancing to track chat? Say wait.
You had armor? Yeah. They was like, it was that bad us going to the end and going with nothing on us? But I think that's what made it such a good time. You know, Soma. More memorable. Yeah, that's the word of a Time fighting this dragon and, you know, everyone's dying left and right, except for one person that's Jess because he was more worried about the atmosphere in the look of the shaders.
I don't even think he took a swing at the dragon, he was just there running around, and he didn't die because of it. Yeah, it was such a good time. And actually, when I logged out, I was in the end. So I got to pick up from where I left off in the And looking for an ancient city, trying to get in a light show. But the thing is, I don't have much like I got a little bit of loot from the first agent City.
We actually appeared right next to an ancient city which, you know, just had a small Tower there really wasn't much there and I think you mean in City. Yeah. What I say. You keep saying ancient city. Yeah. Okay. Sorry. Yeah. What's an ancient city? People are gonna be like I thought you didn't find a deep dark. Yeah you found an ancient city in the end, what? Yeah, there was a In city right there and we did get many
shocker drops either. So I think there was a few things that weren't working at the beginning with the mods in the mob head drops. We were supposed to have that couple things you know like that wasn't working. I think the Shocker drops. Yeah, warrant either. I don't know if we even have that available but yeah, we get very few. I was able to kill enough Shockers to get two of the shells. So I do have a shocker box. I don't want to lose it.
So I might leave the end and come back later so that's a yeah, that will definitely be one of my streams is a in City Raid, it will then again, it's pretty far away and I don't even think we Mark the location so might have to tough it out. Nice. We'll see the story continues. Yeah. With 119 and the all the new updates and everything available to suit the server actually ran pretty smooth with everyone being on it.
So, I've kind of happy, there's a little bit of block lag, I don't know if you experience that we're getting lag through portals, mmm, that that happened last season to didn't run ripple, effect. I don't remember. I think so, but I think maybe I need to speak to Winter little bit, but it was real bad last night for me. Jess, and tareq, like, straight-up voice mod would disconnect. Yeah. For Jess and tareq whenever they would go through a portal, which
I thought was weird. I wonder if it has to do With your launcher, like if you're using multi MC or something. So, I'm using the standard launcher and I never had the voice chat problem. I had portal leg. I have the standard then I was just lucky all night. Yeah, as far as I was told, I was echoing. No, no, that's not what the problem was. Oh yeah. It was that going it first. Yeah, the problem was straight up. It seemed like the mic setting would switch when you went
through a portal. Wow, that is weird. But yeah there's still a little bit to iron out with 119 but it was fun than the less. Yeah I think that's going to do it for today's show.
