    Ya...But an apple tree will have 50% of the leaves apples? Besides its time demanding to cut down entire forests just for a few apples...


    TREECAPITATOR! (don't know the mod link, and don't feel like looking for it.)

    Quote from Homem Pigman

    Congratulations, you managed to find an actually good 1.0.0 seed.


    Try:
    FUS RO DAH : Forest bordering plains bordered by a swamp and extreme hills. Tons of pumpkins and caves. Taiga is in there somewhere.

    when pigs fly : Start in taiga, transitions into forest in several places. Nice plains with a big ravine and lake about 100 odd blocks to the north of spawn.

    The world in this topic is -258127232

    This wasn't a serious topic, folks. Please try not to explode your brains proving me wrong or being a wise ass about coding. Just laugh at a picture of a snowy forest next to a blistering hot desert and save the venom for all the "WAHHH" posts.

    Quote from OSX2000

    There's a sand block on that tree...did you put that there? (That caught my eye before the snow-next-to-desert did)

    yeah. that's how I got to the top of the tall pine I took the pic from :biggrin.gif:

    Quote from Timbor

    You will never, never ever ever find a temperate coniferous forest right next to a desert.

    I'm giving you +1s cause you're a bear.

    I like bears.

    Quote from X8xScoutx8X

    I thought no one would have, considering all the videos on YouTube I've seen, it's taken people nearly 10 minutes on Creative Mode to kill it xD
    Guess I'm wrong though. Good job Awesomebob74!


    It was tough. Kept looking at TMI and saying "just one eye of ender, no one would know" XD

    Devs REALLY need to increase the drop rate for pearls. I ended up with the requisite 12 (my portal was empty) plus 7 to find the place. This took over 100 endermen to get (srsly), at an average of 2 per night. Ridiculous.

    Just did. Massive overkill.

    Diamond armor with feather fall IV on the boots.
    Sharpness II on the sword.
    3 of each potion and 20 TNT.

    Biggest problem this WHOLE game... Finding ender pearls :Skeleton:

    posted a message on Armor is TOO STRONG?
    Quote from isukun

    And why is that bad? The whole point of survival is to gather materials by hand while defending yourself against monsters. It's SUPPOSED to offer some challenge. What's the point of aggressive mobs if they can't hurt you and don't offer any challenge to the player, even in the hardest difficulty? Why have enchantments if they are completely worthless? Why have diamond armor if iron makes you practically invincible?


    Nice way to quote only what you want to respond to.

    You completely missed the part when I said Iron armor is damn near useless against hordes.

    Also, 25 diamonds is not easy (I don't care who you talk to) to drop on a suit of armor every other day.

    Quote from stellardawn

    "It takes about an hour sitting by a mob spawner to get over 30 levels for enchanting."

    I get 12 skill lvls every minecraft night. just go around killing stuff, you'll get a nicer sword and then you'll kill even more stuff. keep going like that.

    From zero? You know the amount needed from one level to the next grows exponentially.

    I'm pretty sure you've read the whole thing the wrong way...
    Can you show what parts of the reading made you think of this? Maybe that'll help me understand. d:


    I think it's like the bible: Every person who reads it can walk away with a completely different meaning behind the text.

    His just so happen to translate into "get a life, foo" :biggrin.gif:

    Iron armor is what I've primarily used. I've given up on tracks and decided to use a TF2 teleport mod :biggrin.gif:

    At night, hunting ender dudes, I feel safe.

    In the nether hunting blazes, I don't. Every time I've gone to my blaze spawner I've managed to **** off one pig man that forces me to fight all 630 that are in the area (killing a pig man aggros every pig mans in 40 yard radius) cause me to get mobed and pretty much destroys a new suit.

    If armor was nerfed, night hunting would be a bit more challenging and the nether would require diamond armor to traverse safely (or a stack of blocks and 2-3 changes of iron).

    As it sits, I'm still fine with how armor is. By the time the nether is something you are "farming", overworld should be "easy" for you. Plus, you can still get jacked up in the overworld if you get lazy and complacent.

    Quote from Flowzor

    But there is no leveling...

    Stop seeing the orbs enemies drop as XP, they're just magic thingies you collect to put on your stuff.

    Does that really make any difference? It's still sitting there for an hour for something that may be completely worthless.

    Does calling it something other than exp make it better somehow?

    if your sward doesn't have sharpness, use a bow. If your aim is amazing, just use a bow no matter what.
