I did heard a rumor that the 'don't dig straight down' rule was originally due to early terrain generation lacking bedrock, which meant digging straight down could lead to falling into the void. I also discovered that during development, the bottom of the world alternated between bedrock and a lava sea before finally stabilizing into bedrock by alpha. It's interesting to learn about the evolution of Minecraft's terrain generation, and it makes me appreciate the game's current state even more. Also, I have to say, the video was hilarious! The jokes had me laughing out loud. I really enjoyed watching it, and I hope your channel continues to grow at a fast pace!"

If you want to dig straight down, place yourself exactly between two blocks and then dig straight down so in case there's a cave, you won't fall immediately as the edge of the other block will safe you from that. When you reached your desired level, place a magma block under the one and a soul sand block under the other block to create a water elevator. Easy

The two block method is the method that I use, the only time I've ever died using that method was when I wasn't paying attention. If you ask me a 34% chance of ending up in a dangerous situation is much to high for me, and something you didn't take into account with your "yellow zone" coordinates is that there could be mobs in there to finish you off, so the number of inescapable fatalities could be higher, so even though there's a high likelihood that you will be fine, just don't.

Honestly one idea that I think could make a really good video is the history of wireless stasis chambers in Minecraft. Wireless stasis chambers used to be a thing that could literally save you from death in ANY scenario, basically making you immortal and being the most OP thing in the game. You used to be able to set one up using item shadowing (which was patched in a recent update) or by using a fishing rod glitch (which was also patched). I believe there are still ways you can make one, but I don’t know how to exactly.

The problem with that design is that you need someone to actually be there to flick the trapdoor when you want to escape a dangerous situation and be teleported to safety. With a wireless stasis chamber, you can teleport yourself from any distance or in any dimension, and this works in singleplayer and on Hardcore too. It doesn’t matter if you’re falling into the void or angered a Warden or fell into lava, with a wireless stasis chamber you can escape all of those situations in an instant.

I haven't looked deeply into this, but I heard a rumor that the real reason "don't dig straight down" was a rule is because early terrain generation had no bedrock, so digging straight down was a virtual guarantee you'd fall into the void. After looking at the changelog in the wiki, it seems in the dev process, the bottom of the world flipped between bedrock and a lava sea, and was finally stabilized into bedrock by alpha.

Much like what I used to do when I started my Minecraft journey. SO nostalgic
Even if digging straight down wouldn't be dangerous at all, you would still have to work your way back up to the surface, so i suppose it would save at least a bit of time and tool durability to dig a staircase right away rather than doing both, unless i'm overlooking a convenient way to go straight up. Plus a nice custom mine entrance looks way more aesthetically pleasing than a deep 1 block wide hole in the ground.

One of my first worlds (back in alpha days), I was digging a 3x3 vertical mineshaft, but hit a vein of gravel directly over a deep pool of lava. The gravel fell and I followed. These days, I craft a bunch of ladders and dig straight down placing ladders as I go and crouching on the ladder to stay in place. Clinging to the ladder may be slower, but it's nearly 100% safe. I hate dropping into a pitch black cave surrounded by creepers, zombies and skeletons almost as much as dropping straight into lava.

Early on I usually don't mind digging straight down just because there's not much to lose but generally I prefer just building up a nice home and so spend the most of my time tree chopping and not really mining. Then once the house is done I start a farm or fishing until I get a God Rod and from there I proceed with the mining. By this point I have some decent exp and a few polices of armor so I travel the mines normally

Hi, old player from beta. As one who dealt with this rumor and shared it. (Used to play back up til 1.8 beta) I’ll start with the work you did, really cool and having a set of numbers and depth to be able to dig down. But where this comes in important is for exploration of caves from being already within. Not everyone was keeping track of depth or utilizing coordinates I’ve seen too many downward digs in a rush to get as deep as possible leading to lava. But aside from that your info is rock solid but it only takes the one where you fall into lava or fall damage that has mobs (not everyone had “the fastest pick in the west”) so they could and many times have spawned as there were a lot of weaving caves. But then when you dropped and didn’t burn your inventory on death you had to go back down which meant a new hole. And finally when you dig straight down it felt way longer hopping and filling to get to the top vs the staircase after a full haul. It was the definitive way due to consistency at any location and time. Again loved this video and thought I’d be more informative in case you were curious of players experience and reasons (if you were not just going over the why as a full skit)

I usually use ladder method. You crouch on the ladder while digging straight down. If there's nothing underneath, drop down and place ladder. If there's a cave, bring your water bucket to go down. And also continue making ladder if you're scared of mobs. You'll need at least 2 stacks of ladders (or 45-50 logs at least, as you also need the wood to make torch, tools, barrel/chest and crafting table)
@TwentySeventhLetter
Жыл бұрын
My main issue with that is it sort of defeats the point of digging down, which is efficiency. While you will keep your tool durability, it takes longer to mine while crouched on a ladder, and thus you will end up better off digging the 2-wide tunnel and making a water elevator after as well for more easy ascent and descent than climbing on ladders. I can totally appreciate the simplicity of just making a bunch of something, placing them as you go, and then never having to worry about it again whereas setting up the water can be a bit time consuming in itself, but I guess that's the great thing about this game, we can all do whatever we want

The main reason digging straight down is not so dangerous anymore is because if you have a water bucket in your inventory, you can quickly save yourself if you fall into lava. If you immediately place the water bucket when falling into lava you only loose a few hearts. And if you have good armor, falling into a crowd of mobs isn't much of a danger either. The only real risk is falling from a big height into a large cave. But even most large caves are not deep enough to kill you completely from fall damage. And if they do, if you are not on hardcore and you are close to your respawn base, finding the hole where you died and going down with flowing water isn't difficult.
a qestion i asked exactly the day this came back
I always mine down standing in two blocks. If there is anything under me, I'll see it before I die, and it's also a lot more time efficient than the staircase method. I just set up ladders and some water to jump down fast.

It would be interesting to have a faction of humans that are anti-imperium but not pro chaos kind of like how the tau have The far sight enclave but for humanity. I also think it would be interesting for this faction to try and beat the imperium without being as immoral as the imperium I think that could do well to make this faction seem different to the imperium even if it's another human faction and the idea could be they hate the imperium so much that they don't want to use it's tactics as much as they can.

I dig straight down all the time. I place a ladder, hold the ladder (sneak mode), and dig up up 3 blocks down. If the coast is clear, I jump down, place ladders, and repeat the process. I dig all the way down to bedrock safely. Actually found red stone this way. Also, found an amethyst cave this way too. It’s slower and uses wood, but it’s Minecraft, so what’s the hurry? There are trees all over the place so making ladders is pretty easy if you’re not in the desert.

I dig down very lot of times, but getting into lava or deep cave is actually rare, especially if you had water bucket in left hand, you can survive both
I always dig straight down. I have the best gear, so I can tank a fall into lava or a long fall in general. But I still dig straight down in early game Minecraft too. If I die then how much progress is lost? Maybe a stone pick and some wooden tools?
I never got why people don't use the two block strat when digging straight down. Just stand in the middle of two blocks and dig, you'll get double the resources and guaranteed will not fall into anything before seeing it since you'll have a one block safety net. And it wastes less durability on your tools than staircasing.
Dig 2 wide and it's actually fairly safe
as a hardcore mode exclusive player even a 0.000001% chance is to damn high
there are still a few things to consider: - you might have a totem, strong armor, water bucket or elytra on you, pretty much making lava and fall damage a joke if you can play it smart - when you hear lava, you can immediately stop and do the 2-wide thing - you can as well just dig straight down for the first 50 blocks and then slow down

That goes both ways. For example, one of the "survivable" falls _might_ have hostile mobs waiting to knock off whatever health you have left. The video even admits this isn't really an inadequate sample size for anything, so I'm not sure what the point was.
Yea. I will do the 2 block method.
