I was not aware of Fire Charges giving an added blast radius. Definitely going to use that for my next firework rockets. I like adding Gold Nuggets into mine as well for the aesthetic effect. Also, an Iron farm is a great source of Red Dye from the Poppies that drop from it. Much easier than scavenging bones from Soul Sand Valleys to Bonemeal flowers. You can even turn excess Poppies into Bonemeal if you want more color variety from the flowers.
Or you can use the poppies for an auto bone meal farm and then use the bone meal for other uses and use the tall flower trick shown in the video (which surprisingly big amounts of people don't know about).
Due to how damage works on Minecraft (Java), adding Multishot doesn't increase damage but increases damage area. The thing is that when one firework hits you, you enter into the red damage animation, which actually are invulnerability frames that last 0.5 seconds, so you're not receiving extra damage from the other 2 fireworks. The only way you can add more damage while being in the red animation is receiving damage greater than the first one, and in that case it doesn't stack, it overwrites the smaller one lol Still kinda deadly having 9 crossbows against people without the correct armor set
@@Elfking94 You do you know if they remove the 0.5 of invulnerability people that can click even as slow as 6 times per second could potentially "oneshot" most enemies or other players and lets not get into the people who can click like 11 times per second. Because without the invulnerability people could potentially deal about 10 hearts or more of damage per second and imagine a netherite sword with sharpness 5 clicking at 10 times per second with no invulnerability. That would easily be like 20 hearts of damage a second. You could kill protection 4 netherite armor wearers in the blink of a eye. Also lets not get into macros or hacks that allow you to click up to 200 times a second.
fun fact regarding I frames and getting hit. Magma cubes have a faster attack interval compared to most other mobs and attack at about twice per second, due to this they can do what seems to be a double tap. since the cooldown for it's attack lines up with when the invulnerability frames run out. Considering the surprising amount of damage (9 hearts) a large magma cube does, it can kill unsuspecting players the first time they go into the nether. Completely unrelated, but magma cubes also lack proper pathfinding and will jump off cliffs randomly.
Dear Mojang If you don't want people killing the warden, then why not just give it godmode, ya assbrains? It's not that hard to give wardens godmode as opposed to making it stronger everytime someone finds a way to kill it, buffing it in updates is a common symptom of cope, known as Stage 1, or "Retardation". Sincerely. - A concerned teamextreme launcher user [KlonoaGamimg]
@@Klonoa1488 No, the current approach is enough to deter people from fighting it. What matters is that you always have a choice in Minecraft, so if you really want to kill it, you can do it out of spite.
"Peacetime" application of this technology: Fishing. Practice your aim, and shoot schools of fish. One detonation can take out three, four, sometimes five of the little mobs, which then conveniently float to the surface. One single warhead is plenty for this. It's also a good early-game answer to drowned carrying tridents, since it has much longer range, and you can often scrounge used crossbows from illager patrols even before you've got decent amounts of iron.
This is a pretty viable alternative for TNT cannons for anti-personnel warfare. Requires less scarce materials to craft, and can be used to complement potions for fighting elite players with good armor. Firework rockets this powerful can also be effective in aerial combat if players know how to aim the rockets properly at others using elytras.

It's not that reliable though. It uses a lot of resources for fireworks and you need to sacrifice you off hand slot which can be used for totems or shields. The distance is limited, can't even instantly kill a player with no armor compared to power 5 bow, for example.
@@allegrifan4933 Well AA guns never operated by themselves, they were usually protected by infantry and such. So as long as you had a group of friends to protect you and decent aim, that could be a viable defense option still.
Great video. I never used crossbows before because I didn’t know the rockets did additional damage. I thought it just looked cool. Normal power 5 bows are generally better in my opinion, but this changes that! I’ll for sure have to try this out.
Goes through shields which is better. Power 5 with flame and damage 2 arrows still does more but shields block them and these are easier to hit with but more expensive
I knew this ages ago. I use it as my main weapon in late game when i have some farms providing me decent amount of meterials for fireworks so i can spam rapidly without worrying. super fun and powerful trust me, totally life changing
Rockets triple the durability cost, be sure to repair the crossbows in time. With Multishot (triples the durability cost as well), launching fireworks costs 9 uses per shot. Maybe you know that, just putting this here.
I never know that fireworks on java explodes on impact. In bedrock/PE, it doesn't explode instantly but rather slides on blocks until it explodes naturally. I shoot mostly on the corner of blocks so it would'nt travel far away.
@@Eyecraftmc Not entirely sure since it was years ago. I don't know if something had changed by now. But discovering that it explodes on impact in java makes it similarly to a grenade launcher.
Just a small warning: Shooting an arrow takes 1 durability point from the crossbow, fireworks take 3, and with multishot the 3 fireworks would take 9 damage to the crossbow so you would only be able to shoot around 30 times before the crossbow broke, with Unbreaking III it reduces to 2 item damage but still it's pretty hard
In my experience and testing on Java Edition, the fire charge (larger ball) DOES NOT increase the blast radius. Just like all of the other firework shape modifiers (golden nugget, feather, creeper head, etc), the larger ball is purely cosmetic. I would also like to mention that 7 firework stars isn't enough to one-shot any common hostile mob- even spiders, which are left at 1 health. The only mob a 7-star can one-shot is a cave spider, and even then, a 5-star rocket will still do the trick. If you're only going to be using a firework launcher against mobs, I recommend 4--star rockets, as they can still 2-shot basically every common hostile mob.
Agreed, power 5 and flame can pretty much kill all zombies, creepers, skeleton, and spiders. I use the firework crossbow more for multiplayer pvp. Don't use this in singleplayer worlds.
super usefull info thanks a tone. I was goimg to comment that video didnt show actual use of this launcher on any mob, so that was pretty anoying. but you've provided info i was looking for!
The difference is that fireworks crossbows are really good for huge mobs herds, in a singleplayer worlds they work really well. In PVP I think it is better to use a bow instead
Hot bar (left to right) 1) food 2) pickaxe 3)torches 4-9) crossbows Food to eat on hand is good, and the pickaxe and torches are next to each other so when you go mining you can easily swap between the two. When placing torches in a cave, you might stumble across an enemy or two, so immediately swap to your crossbow. If the target has the audacity to still be alive, swap to the next crossbow and continue the barrage until they are very much dead.
I didn't know that you can put more than one star per firework, using a bow is boring, so this is going to be my new large distance weapon, thanks for the tutorial!
In my tests, 3 gunpowder makes it go a max of 70 blocks. Max blast w/ short range makes it go 40. Idk about medium range with 2 gunpowder. Keep in mind there isn't too much of a difference between the max blast and weak blast. Only difference is range. Biggest difference is how multishot causes your extra rockets to either hit your target area or zip past it
One thing if you cant find flowers, using bonemeal on the grass has a chance to grow some yellow and red flowers. Also bonemeal itself makes white dye so its the easiest if you want to skip the flower step.
@@Eyecraftmc It doesn't work against the dragon, as her bounding box is too big for the explosion to reach her even when the fireworks connect, at least that's how it worked when I last tried it. It may have been changed since then.
I love crossbows in general, the ones in Minecraft are the closest thing to a firearm, it's fun to setup ammunition production with various farms to make powerful fireworks
This is actually something that I figured out myself, completely independently, a few years ago, and I'm actually really proud of that. I loved messing and tinkering with firework stars, giving them different colors and stacking them into a single firework, and my surprise when I found out multiple firework stars stacked in a single rocket was very much shocking. Also, crossbows are my favorite weapons in the game, so my surprise was even greater, because this makes them one of the strongest weapons in the game.
Dye tip: Make a cactus bamboo farm, its not hard at all and by the time you want to make a rocket launcher you're bound to have enough resources for that. It'll produce an astronomical amount of cactus green dye which you can then use for the firework.
@@leglessflamingo You kinda need bone meal, and though that is ez to get once you access the nether, a full auto farm you can just forget about and reap the benefits of seems better
I knew about the rockets in crossbows thing, and how it was fairly decent damage. Didn't know you could use multishot with them though! That is kinda bonkers damage, but now I know my goal in my friend's server.
@@Rayvenns They will suspect of it, it's really obvius, and if you don't play against easy mode bots like u they won't fall for it, they are extremely unefficient and the placement is really especific.
I've considered using crossbow launched or despenser launched firework with stars to act as an anti elytra defense on a server I am on. It's a peaceful server, but I think is would be funny to have these fireworks going off like flak as they fly in. Give people a good spook
@@ПьерЛавальТВ skulk can separate the frequency altho youll probs have to hide them near mountains or a tower in the air or in the hot air ballons...hmm yes ww2
There's a little known method to increasing your dye per bonemeal output... When growing a single tall flower, find a flat area, knock out one block in the middle, place the flower in that one lower block, and bonemeal it there. You're guaranteed at least six to nine flowers per use, if done correctly.
These could be nightmares for the pillager raids, if you design a defensive wall for the village that funnels the pillagers to one section than open up with the rocket launcher you could really mess up the pillager and vindicators, ravegers are tanky so it will weaken then but they will have a decent chunk of hp left by the time the infantry are dead and evokers are worth killing asap regardless of whether they are with the horde or not.
Best way to gain materials: Gunpowder: create a afk creeper farm and afk next to it for a while. Paper: create a bonemeal farm and grow sugarcane and harvest it, or find bone sculptures in the nether. Dye: create a beetroot farm, or use bonemeal on a flower. Fire charges: Mine for coal with a fortune 3 pickaxe, or create a wither skeleton farm/find a spot between 2 blaze spawners in keep killing them with looting 3.
Anyone who wants even more damage Use multishot and quickcharge Use harming 2 arrows This deals a whopping 56 damage Enough to kill a player with protection 4 netherite armor IN ONE SHOT
I remember using these for the raid in skyblock and the rockets are really useful coz it doesn't aggro the evokers like arrows would and they won't summon the vexes.
It’s always an end game weapon everytime when I play on a server with friends. By this time everyone has good armor and farms necessary to make a lot of fireworks.
@@saturn_fpv late but basically anvil use cost isnt based on the enchantments combining but how many times the item has been used on the anvil. It also takes the item in the anvil that has the most anvil uses on it’s number so if u mix a book u used on the anvil once with one that was used twice it takes the twice used one and brings it up to three the equation is like (x-1)^2 where x is the amount of times it has been used on the anvil( idk if that equation is the exact right one just what i remember)
Rocket Launcher, basically. I have a question, do other components like gold nuggets or feather (that replace fire charge), or additions like a diamond and glowstone dust change the performance of a firework star besides cosmetic? If no, it seems like fire charge is the best choice for battles, while others are for striking looks
"You were good son, real good, maybe even the best." -Soldier i know it's been a long time already, but he still lives on in our hearts. o7 Rick may Great tutorial btw
Awesome video, you are quite skilled at commentary! I would certainly not be able to do this in 1 clip like you did. Any way, keep up the good work :-]
Fun Fact, When it comes to the main enchantment multishot it’s best used on less powerful crowds of players because a player with a shield can basically mostly negate the damage and it’s even worse if he has an enchanted shield with full enchanted netherite but what you can do is instead of multishot you can get piercing IV which will accomplish two things, the first would be that the rocket can also pass through the shield, not just arrows and secondly it can also negate some of his defense, because let’s say your enemy has Prot IV then if you have Piercing IV it would be just like he’s wearing normal netherite against a full power firework rocket. Which is why I always prefer Piercing over Multishot.
I tested it time and time again in Flat. Aside from actual players, this arm is super effective against the spiders(1-hit-K.O!) and Endermen. Apparently an Enderman's AI doesn't recognize rockets as incoming projectiles, so it hardly tries to dodge those shots fired. Very cool. Edit. Although note that it's useless to concentrate all three missiles at a single target, since A: that usually means you're in danger-close sitch where you'd be blowing up yourself, and B: each rockets' damage output doesn't seem to stack at all.
A tip for the dye, you can break the tall flowers with a fortune III tool and it’ll give you more of those flowers. And you can keep placing and breaking them to get an infinite amount

does fire charge actually help increase the damaging area? I'd experimented in 1.17 and it just have bigger explosion effect, not the damaging area. does 1.18 somehow adjusted this?
Crossbow: Max rockets Enchants: Mending, Unbreaking, Multishot, QuickCharge 3 Damage output on different armor: Protection 3 diamond armor: Around 1.5 hearts Protection 4 diamond armor: Around 1 heart Protection 4 Netherite armor: Around 0.75 hearts Having two loaded firework crossbows allows you to D-tap opponent Simply hitting the opponent with a sprint hit, followed by 2 consecutive firework crossbows Will deal double the damage without the need for waiting for the hit tick delay (The same way you would in crystal pvp but with fireworks) While the damage needs low, remember this is a range, aoe attack that you can spam You’ll be able to dish out half the damage of a sharpness 5, strength 2 netherite sword, using the crossbow(per second) without having to worry about missing, unlike a power 5 bow
Just a tip- I would recommend building a gold farm and bartering station, my small Shulkercraft bartering station has gotten me several stacks of fire charges without ever having to harvest blazes.
Since you can't enchant a crossbow with something like Power to increase the damage, this is an amazing way to get higher damage. I had no idea fireworks and crossbows could be so deadly together.
I like how casually he explains it, I kinda wanna see him explain the next gen weapon to the president like “and we want to minimize pain in war so we made sure it kills as fast as possible”
Loved the video @Eyecraftmc! Can't wait for the next video man! Thank you for this Guide on "Crafting Rifle Launched Grenades and the M1 Bazooka and Ammunition" LMAO! The Multishot Crossbows can be used as the M1 Garand Rifle while a simple Quick Charge III or maybe just Mending and Unbreaking III Crossbow can be used as the M1 Bazooka. The Rifle Launched Grenades could be Represented by Flight Duration 1 or 2 Fireworks with the 6 or 7 Large Balls (Color will be the Player's Choice, Though I would recommend Colors that will emulate an Explosion Like Red, Yellow Orange, White or even any combination of these), While the M1 Bazooka Ammunition can be Respresented with the Simple Flight Duration 1 Fireworks and 7 Large Balls as it's meant to deal with Tanks, which in Minecraft would be either Ravagers during a Village Raid or Fully Geared Players (Enchanted Netherite Armor and Tools). The Rifle Launched Grenades, on the other hand, Are meant to deal with Large Amounts of Infantry if you or another Player who's attacking you are Dug-in, In a Foxhole or a Trench or any other means of Cover. I would like to see this Theory of mine Tested just to be sure that it's a Very good Possibility, even for Multiplayer.
This video was made 2 years ago, this comment was made 2 weeks ago, the reply to the comment was made 2 days ago and now this comment sas made 2 seconds ago
It's a good weapon but it's not the best. A crossbow with multishot and instant harming arrow can 1 shot a person in full enchanted netherite and a totem. I've tested it
FIRE CHARGES DON'T INCREASE EXPLOSION SIZE All explosions have the same hitbox, no matter the pattern. Don't waste blaze powder. Also, white dye is much easier to get than any other dye. You can craft it out of bonemeal
the wiki says the firework effect (which fire charges are listed under) don't affect the explosion's damage radius. i know it makes the explosions visually bigger though, can you confirm or deny this?

@@Rayvenns They will suspect of it, it's really obvius, and if you don't play against easy mode bots like u they won't fall for it, they are extremely unefficient and the placement is really especific.
I've considered using crossbow launched or despenser launched firework with stars to act as an anti elytra defense on a server I am on. It's a peaceful server, but I think is would be funny to have these fireworks going off like flak as they fly in. Give people a good spook
That sounds really cool!

There's a little known method to increasing your dye per bonemeal output...
When growing a single tall flower, find a flat area, knock out one block in the middle, place the flower in that one lower block, and bonemeal it there. You're guaranteed at least six to nine flowers per use, if done correctly.
this doesn't work on java btw
Java cant use bonebeal to regrow the same flower
@@thalassaer4137how do you get tall flowers in Java?
These could be nightmares for the pillager raids, if you design a defensive wall for the village that funnels the pillagers to one section than open up with the rocket launcher you could really mess up the pillager and vindicators, ravegers are tanky so it will weaken then but they will have a decent chunk of hp left by the time the infantry are dead and evokers are worth killing asap regardless of whether they are with the horde or not.
Best way to gain materials:
Gunpowder: create a afk creeper farm and afk next to it for a while.
Paper: create a bonemeal farm and grow sugarcane and harvest it, or find bone sculptures in the nether.
Dye: create a beetroot farm, or use bonemeal on a flower.
Fire charges:
Mine for coal with a fortune 3 pickaxe, or create a wither skeleton farm/find a spot between 2 blaze spawners in keep killing them with looting 3.
Anyone who wants even more damage
Use multishot and quickcharge
Use harming 2 arrows
This deals a whopping 56 damage
Enough to kill a player with protection 4 netherite armor IN ONE SHOT
this felt like an old minecraft modpack video and the amount of nostalgia I felt is crazy
Gongmen city: " Yeeyyy! Fireworks!!! "
Shen:
I remember using these for the raid in skyblock and the rockets are really useful coz it doesn't aggro the evokers like arrows would and they won't summon the vexes.

This is pretty good when combined with the spyglass on the other hand.
actually that's a pretty neat idea! i never thought of combining a ranged weapon with the spyglass in the offhand. nice!

It’s always an end game weapon everytime when I play on a server with friends. By this time everyone has good armor and farms necessary to make a lot of fireworks.
Just a tip, enchant the books together to save exp
Curious, what do you mean by that?
@@saturn_fpv late but basically anvil use cost isnt based on the enchantments combining but how many times the item has been used on the anvil. It also takes the item in the anvil that has the most anvil uses on it’s number so if u mix a book u used on the anvil once with one that was used twice it takes the twice used one and brings it up to three the equation is like (x-1)^2 where x is the amount of times it has been used on the anvil( idk if that equation is the exact right one just what i remember)

Rocket Launcher, basically. I have a question, do other components like gold nuggets or feather (that replace fire charge), or additions like a diamond and glowstone dust change the performance of a firework star besides cosmetic? If no, it seems like fire charge is the best choice for battles, while others are for striking looks
Just cosmetic
They are just cosmetic.
I Really recomend you to use instant damage 2 arrows, at least on bedrock is very cheap and is way deadly
@@bluepoint5786 combined with power 5, i think it can 2 two shot iron. Also could use piercing 4 to bypass shields
Wow I didn’t even know you could load a crossbow with fireworks. Thank you UA-cam recommended.
Multishot doesn’t triple the damage because there’s invincibility frames, but it does make the blast radius bigger

TECNOBLADE NEVER DIES!
Crossbow + fireworks + multishot combined with Elytra is the best combo ever(aka. Carpet Bombing Aircraft).
Thank you. I’ve recently had success with this against those pesky vexers
Fun Fact, When it comes to the main enchantment multishot it’s best used on less powerful crowds of players because a player with a shield can basically mostly negate the damage and it’s even worse if he has an enchanted shield with full enchanted netherite but what you can do is instead of multishot you can get piercing IV which will accomplish two things, the first would be that the rocket can also pass through the shield, not just arrows and secondly it can also negate some of his defense, because let’s say your enemy has Prot IV then if you have Piercing IV it would be just like he’s wearing normal netherite against a full power firework rocket. Which is why I always prefer Piercing over Multishot.
I thought you could only put unreaking and mending on a shield, why would that matter
Wow, I'm definitely doing this once I get my hands on Java edition :D (I've never played Minecraft but I plan to soon)
You should, its so fun and an awesome weapon!
@Zendri thank you, I will remember the age-old wisdom 🤘
Welcome to the game! Be sure to place torches on the right side when caving and mining, so you can find your way home with them on your left.

I tested it time and time again in Flat. Aside from actual players, this arm is super effective against the spiders(1-hit-K.O!) and Endermen.
Apparently an Enderman's AI doesn't recognize rockets as incoming projectiles, so it hardly tries to dodge those shots fired. Very cool.
Edit. Although note that it's useless to concentrate all three missiles at a single target, since A: that usually means you're in danger-close sitch where you'd be blowing up yourself, and B: each rockets' damage output doesn't seem to stack at all.
just a question : should we use infinity instead of multi shot?
Infinity doesn’t work on crossbows or with special ammo.

@@MainStrqtsChannel haha ok. I'm over 12 and I prefer Java edition. Thanks for the invite anyway!
does fire charge actually help increase the damaging area? I'd experimented in 1.17 and it just have bigger explosion effect, not the damaging area. does 1.18 somehow adjusted this?
As far as I know the fire charge does make the damage radius larger.
@@Eyecraftmc where did you get this info? couldn't find it anywhere

Slightly irrelevant but ok
Crossbow: Max rockets
Enchants: Mending, Unbreaking, Multishot, QuickCharge 3
Damage output on different armor:
Protection 3 diamond armor: Around 1.5 hearts
Protection 4 diamond armor: Around 1 heart
Protection 4 Netherite armor: Around 0.75 hearts
Having two loaded firework crossbows allows you to D-tap opponent
Simply hitting the opponent with a sprint hit, followed by 2 consecutive firework crossbows
Will deal double the damage without the need for waiting for the hit tick delay (The same way you would in crystal pvp but with fireworks)
While the damage needs low, remember this is a range, aoe attack that you can spam
You’ll be able to dish out half the damage of a sharpness 5, strength 2 netherite sword, using the crossbow(per second) without having to worry about missing, unlike a power 5 bow

EyecraftMC: *alright... my turn.*
Just a tip- I would recommend building a gold farm and bartering station, my small Shulkercraft bartering station has gotten me several stacks of fire charges without ever having to harvest blazes.
The uploader of this video lied. Fire charges only increase visual radius, not actual blast radius. I tested this myself, so have many others.
It helped me out thanks 😊
Glad it helped!
I toked a brake from Mincraft for like 4-5 years and seeing all new stuff kind of got me lost , thanks for your videos guides .
Ah yes, a shotgun class rocket launcher.
this man kept the video simple while properly explaining a weapon of mass destruction, what a guy🐐🐐
Since you can't enchant a crossbow with something like Power to increase the damage, this is an amazing way to get higher damage. I had no idea fireworks and crossbows could be so deadly together.
In both bedrock and the future combat update multi shot can actually hit all arrows in one target working as a kind of shot gun
@@danielgonzalez-vm5ljbut fireworks don't explode on impact on bedrock right?

Will Looting be applied if you hold an appriorately enchanted sword in the off-hand while using the rocket launcher?
That would make it an expensive but effective mass-looter, if so.
If you didn't know already you can use this technique during the second faze of the wither fight and it will still deal damage!!!
Good to Know!
@@Eyecraftmc personally I've never tested I but I saw it in someone's video and they said it worked because it's explosion damage and not projectile
Loved the video @Eyecraftmc! Can't wait for the next video man! Thank you for this Guide on "Crafting Rifle Launched Grenades and the M1 Bazooka and Ammunition" LMAO! The Multishot Crossbows can be used as the M1 Garand Rifle while a simple Quick Charge III or maybe just Mending and Unbreaking III Crossbow can be used as the M1 Bazooka. The Rifle Launched Grenades could be Represented by Flight Duration 1 or 2 Fireworks with the 6 or 7 Large Balls (Color will be the Player's Choice, Though I would recommend Colors that will emulate an Explosion Like Red, Yellow Orange, White or even any combination of these), While the M1 Bazooka Ammunition can be Respresented with the Simple Flight Duration 1 Fireworks and 7 Large Balls as it's meant to deal with Tanks, which in Minecraft would be either Ravagers during a Village Raid or Fully Geared Players (Enchanted Netherite Armor and Tools). The Rifle Launched Grenades, on the other hand, Are meant to deal with Large Amounts of Infantry if you or another Player who's attacking you are Dug-in, In a Foxhole or a Trench or any other means of Cover.
I would like to see this Theory of mine Tested just to be sure that it's a Very good Possibility, even for Multiplayer.
In bedrock harming arrows are better than fireworks
I love how the MultiShot Crossbow is essentially Minecraft's shotgun slash multiple rocket launcher.
that's why i like to name them "Spreadgun" in reminiscence of Contra (NES). :)

FIRE CHARGES DON'T INCREASE EXPLOSION SIZE
All explosions have the same hitbox, no matter the pattern. Don't waste blaze powder.
Also, white dye is much easier to get than any other dye. You can craft it out of bonemeal
