  • This video is a basic introduction to using E-Strats (AKA E-Ray, AKA Microlensing, AKA Bastion X-Ray) to locate bastions in the nether.
    To my knowledge, K4yfour is the one who developed this strategy. The original video, which includes how to configure Minecraft to do the things I show, can be viewed here: • Practical Guide to Bas...
    This is the first video I've posted on UA-cam and I'm interested in your feedback. It took a fair amount of time to put this together and I tried my best to create it in a manner that is fitting for a wide audience.
    Thanks to all the speedrunners out there. Cheers!

    I don't even speedrun, just wanted to find a bastion. I found a bastion within 5 minutes using the spike in Entities. Didn't even have to watch the whole thing for it to work

  • @kiwidev01

    For locating a far-away bastion, all the time if I increase my render distance, even to max, it only jumps up to less than 100. Do you know how to fix this?

    Why do we need to look E to find where is bastion if piglens from bastion is not counted in E

    • @boomerplayz7086
      @boomerplayz7086  2 роки тому

      You need to know what E is so you can subtract it from T. If the difference is 30 or so, you most likely have a bastion within render distance. If they are roughly equal, a bastion has not rendered.

    Why don't you do speed running videos rather than teaching speed running. IT WILL MIGHT BECOME MORE POPULAR.As you know a lot about minecraft speed run.

      I've thought about it, but I'm fairly certain people would fall asleep watching me... Although I have a good handle on the concepts and strategies of speed running, I'm really bad when it comes to the mechanics, reaction time, and gaming skills. I'm thinking about streaming some teaching sessions where I attempt runs and we actively talk through the choices and strategies.

      I wanna add on to this as a little bit of encouragement, You seem to be a fairly good speaker, and really that is mostly what people come to streams for. You can be the best runner in the world but have people not wanna watch you if you don't speak and interact with people. So I think that if you did decide to do runs, people would enjoy watching for your commentary even if you werent the greatest at the run itself. Just something to think about.
