I have found myself doing a lot of hardcore speed runs lately and I was wondering. How much of this material will I really need to find and kill the ender dragon. For example when I begin I punch 4 logs then craft a bench and get a wooden pick. This allows me to harvest 3 stone for a stone pick which i use to gather 13 more stone for a furnace sword and an axe to get some more wood for charcoal. Can you guys post some stats on how many resources you use on speed runs and also what you should and shouldn't do if you are just trying to kill the ender dragon (Make a house, bed, farm?).
To effectively reach 'The End' and kill the dreadful dragon, it is not recordable on how many of each resource will be needed. It is dependent on luck mostly, how many iron, gold, and diamonds you find for weapons. Many like to bring stacks of arrows, therefor getting lucky with a skeleton spawner would be greatly helpful. Also, your distance to the portal can be based on luck, some may have to travel for DAYS, using up wood and whatnot for shelters.
Again, the amount of resources is not recordable due to the luck factor.
You know I'm more of a saver-upper meaning I wait and wait and wait a long time until I have a ton of survival tools in the end and great enchanted bows and swords to use against the dragon. So I don't use "Minimum resources" quite much...
Note: Get food if you see piggeh!
So....
If you are lucky do this:
cut down 6 logs. that is the number
make all of the logs planks
make workbench, save 4 planks, make rest sticks
make a wooden pickaxe
cut 11 stone
make furnace
make a stone pickaxe
cut coal
make 16 torches
Note: you now have: 1 wood, 1 workbench, 1 furnace, 1 wood + 1 stone pick, 16 torches, 8 sticks, and extra coal.
find iron fast
smelt iron with extra coal
make bow sometime soon... whenever you find string
also find/make as much arrows as you can squeeze into your rushed steps
make iron pick
find daimonds fast
make daimond pick
Now, while you were searching for daimondz, any extra iron will smelt. make bucket
you are out of sticks.
find flint and any extra iron to help complete the bucket and flint & steel
dig up obsidian carefully.
make a portal
by now you have used up quite some torches.
find a blaze spawner
get blaze rods for blaze powder
get about 10+ rods
this may take awhile, but hunt for the man 'o the ender! (endermen)
get about 30+ pearls
make eyes of ender (keep quite a few pearls)
locate stronghold
activate portal
use pearls to teleport up to obsidian pillars
destroy crystals
kill the dragon!
you win xd!
AFTERMATH:
collect xp
enchant bow
enchant pick
make sword (iron or daimond)
enchant sword
...
PROFIT!!!!!!!!!!
A bed would be nice...
If you get un-lucky delete world try again!
if you get really lucky tell me your seed
if you pick "Flatland" in generation you are a retard!
