- There are a large variety in the amount of features that minecraft has. However there are bound to be features that nobody really uses for a variety of reasons such as feeling outdated, not useful, no purpose, or feeling lackluster. In this video we will delve in 20 features almost no one uses. I hope you enjoy :)

Mushroom Island is far from useless. It's perfect for an endgame base: mobs don't spawn on it, it's easy to terraform and the grass is bright green, perfect for building.
It should also be brought up that it provides nearly endless food with mooshrooms.
And pretty cottagecore aesthetic ooga booga base
It would be, if it wasn't so rare. Making a base so far away from stuff that you have built, before discovering it, isn't practical. Though indeed would make a perfect spot for a base, if you discovered the island early in your world!
@@pRopaaNS if it's isolated from everything else you're better off moving to the mainland
@@pRopaaNS just use nether portals and warp closer to resources you need lol
The clock is mandatory for me, I never feel comfortable in a new Minecraft world until I've made a clock and stuck it in the corner of my hotbar. The reason? I hate the night and I hate hostile mobs. If I've been toiling away in the mines for hours the last thing that I want to do when I come up for air is to get attacked by a creeper topside. This is multiplied by 100 if I'm fiddling around near a town that I haven't lit up every square inch of and walled up - while I'm fooling around indoors or underground the whole village could be getting massacred. Truly the secret to a healthy (Minecraft) life is a rock solid sleep routine.
I do the same thing... always got a clock on me in my toolbar so I can immediately see what time it is, especially if spending a lot of time working underground. It may not work in the Nether but I always have my portals surrounded by small buildings rather than out in the open so if I come out of the Nether and my clock says it's night, I know to take a nap in the bed I've placed in said small building.
Same, clock gang.
I put a clock on an item frame inside my base, because they're usually really deep underground.
if you are mining, the clock is useless because the overworld is too far away to affect you. if you are overworld, its still useless by just glancing at anything except the ground. also, try sleeping at night.
@@matthewbarabas3052 thanks captain obvious.
charcoal is definitely not even close to un-used. coal can be hard to find in the latest updates for the first while.
i use charcoal on some worlds where i can't bother mining coal and it's literally easier to passively wait to get a good fuel source for free when you have a tree-chopping mod
yeah charcoal being unused is CAP. i’ve seen plenty of players use their tree farms and dump the logs into a furnace setup that uses charcoal to produce more charcoal
Always use charcoal especially early game. Also tend to save any coal I find until I find villagers and then use it to level them up quickly.
I use charcoal every playthrough
oh yes it took almost 5 minutes to get some coal thats alot
I actually like that charcoal feature. It's a good way to optimize furnaces sense you can just grow trees.
Same, I tend to use charcoal for most smelting jobs since it’s easier for me to get a stack of charcoal than a stack of coal
you can fully automate it by setting up a tree farm with Pistons and a TNT duplicator, feeding the logs into a furnace to become Charcoal, then distribute that charcoal to the rest of your furnaces via hoppers
I didn't even think of this. granted, I prioritize using up mt charcoal first, due to coal being better. Before that seemed absurd, but when they updated the trees to drop sticks it didn't even occur to me. I spawned in one of those horrible big tree taiga biomes this is genius you have no idea how much excess wood I have.
Just make wooden slabs, it's more efficient to make over charcoal, and doesn't need initial fuel to make
Just make a infinite lava source then use lava buckets for fuel no need to ever go anywhere for fuel
I always use the charcoal feature because it means I can get torches within the first 2 minutes of playing. It means I don’t have to waste time looking for coal when I should be spawnproofing the area and building a shack for the night
I'm an old player who left the game during 1.9 and came back a few months ago. I am not used to the whole cave update and finding coal proves to be very difficult to me, so I started using charcoal a lot more often
@@haruharu4680 If I’m not mistaken, the best y-level to find coal now is in the 90s so it’s less likely you’ll find it when mining as opposed to being in the mountains
@@Merp_a_Derp woah, the 90s? I did see an increase in my findings when I looked for them above ground but man 90s is a lot more than I expected for coal. It's a bit annoying that it got nerfed like that but maybe I just gotta get adjusted to it
@@haruharu4680 Yup, as Merp says, go to the mountains, there's plenty of coal there, but if you spawn in a place where mountains aren't exactly one of the first things you find, then charcoal is way better
@@haruharu4680 at least the mountains are taller for example the second best place to find iron is at 256 same with emerald
I have a theory that desert wells serve as a tutorial of such to new players, showing them how to make infinite water sources, like how jungle temples show off basic Redstone and traps or how ruined portals give a hint on what a nether portal looks like
there isn't really anything explaining that to them a new player would have no idea an infinite water source could be made
Makes sense, but it's been a WHILE and i mean a WHILE since I stumbled across one, I only did in the old console edition, but never in Bedrock.
Infinite water sources are basically essential, and making them so rare seems contradicting, and most new players will just go to the nearest lake or ocean to refill their bucket.
Originally notch was going to add thirst, but then never did.
I heard once that when there is a desert well there often is a village nearby, got no idea if it's true but sometimes there is so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@supernova5934 It explains it by demonstrating it. When a new player takes water out with a bucket, they witness the water refill itself and use that to figure out how infinite water sources work. That’s how good game design works, it explains through demonstration rather than words
It’s funny that you mentioned the clock because any time I go mining I have a clock on me so I know if it’s daytime up at the surface. If it isn’t, I’ll mine until morning.
Ok or just get better and don’t die
useless feature, Minecraft is braindead easy btw
This is exactly what it was meant for. This blud probably never mined, another creative mode princess
@@nashooo5903 just sleep, dumbass
@@nashooo5903 brother nobody uses clocks while mining. watch any minecraft playthrough (hardcore for example) and notice how they don't have a clock. the fact you default to 'creative mode princess' because someone doesn't use a clock, and assume they've never mined, is fucking stupid 💀
Dead bushes can actually be used to look like the branches of a small tree!
Step 1: place a pot
Step 2: place a dead bush
Step 3: place a leaf of your choice on top.
Step 4: place another leaf of your choice on top making it two leaves tall. (Optional)
I feel like chainmail would be immediately more useful if you were able to combine it with other armor sets to give a further boost in durability, kinda like how chainmail IRL was more of a layer you would wear instead of your sole armor set.
That could make leather usable as well, as a representation of gambesons and such
Please someone tell Mojang
Early in development studded armor was planned which presumably leather armor with chainmail over it
and imagine if you could dye the chainmail armor
They're actually doing this in the next update! They're going to introduce armor combining in general according to the snapshot
I feel like the mushroom islands are a great place to build a base, as they have a very lush grass colour (as well as water). Also, the mushroom cows are a great renewable food source early game.
Mushroom water is gray tho, its ugly af. Its like muddy or something.
And hostile mobs don't spawn there too
I like to turn mushroom islands into tropical islands since it has like the greenest grass in the game in that biome. Wish Mojang would add palm trees and coconuts
@@justsaying6632 in bedrock it's purple-grey, in java it's bright blue
Try getting one as your world spawn and surrounding it with icy oceans as far as the eye can see, and you have my world spawn, it’s awful…
For the spectral arrows, if you encounter the Warden, you can shoot it to see it through the blindness effect
Desert Wells aren't that useless anymore, since you can find suspicious sand around it.
The poisonous potato does have one use, unlike the thick potion (made when you put glowstone into a water bottle in a brewing stand). You need to eat it if you want to complete the "A Balanced Diet" advancement.
I used to think it was used for poison potion, it would make sense
@@youre_mine no it wouldnt how would it do that if it's near usless
@@timohara7717 idk i used to think that
eating a potato that poisons you sounds very balanced for your diet
@@timohara7717would make sense, makes as much sense as putting sugar to get speed potions
I personally use the furnance minecart, It's actually really helpful to move villagers or mobs, instead of using powered rails just use a cheap furnance minecart and one coal.
I guess I never thought about it like that
But why that when rail duping is a thing
@@suburbanyute340 duping is for noobs
@@suburbanyute340 a lot of people don't agree with it since it's kinda cheating
@@suburbanyute340 duping is literally /give with extra steps
i thought bats were gonna be at number 1 but they’re not even on the list, and they have literally NO use
„Painting leather armors has no use”
Bedwars: am I a joke to you?
but they can just upgrade their armour to iron and then it wont be useful anymore
Charcoal is actually pretty useful. It’s great for the early game when you haven’t done a lot of mining yet, especially if you plan to build using stone bricks or smooth stone.
I ONLY use charcoal, it's the easiest thing to make and works exactly the same as coal, but always available, I only hold on to coal to sell it to villagers.
@@AlexHerrera-wk6lqhave some infinite lava and a couple of buckets - and you have an infinite source of the one of the best fuels in the game. If you know what to do, it takes like ~40 minutes to get all materials needed.
even minecraft starts with MİNE what are you gonna do if you dont do some mining first
@@Space_e_e_E_ build a house, look for a village, start a farm
Yeah, its usefull to be able to make when you havent mined yet and barely started setting a base after looking for the good spot
Spectral arrows are crafted with one arrow (annoying to get) and glowstone (easy and plentiful) and give you two arrows in return. They let you double your arrow count and give you a spectral bonus to see targets. They are a must and even give you a neat bonus!
True, I always craft my arrows into spectral arrows as well, since you just get the double amount!
wow thanks for the advice i didn't know that

@@fujiwaranonekobiodrando1257 you know you can just build up, right?
Alternate title: VirtualAct knows one way to play minecraft, assumes that’s how everyone else plays
lmao pretty much
Yeah honestly, half of the things on this last are actually used by people and are nice to have, like clocks, charcoal and the mushroom island being an endgame base
@@arise_femto not to mention mushroom islands are the only way to get mycelium. Literally no other way to obtain it.
Honestly 😂 like most of the comments are “(item/feauture) is really useful because it lets me do this way easier” 😂😂

Okay hear me out: the furnace Minecraft is actually crazy for transporting mobs long distances
you have to supply it fuel to keep it going. you know what doesn't need fuel though? boats.
just put a mob into a boat, then push a minecart into the boat, and for some reason the boat propels the minecart like a motor. it's basically infinite powered rails
@@duckified.WAIT, I CAN PUT MINECRARTS INTO BOATS??
Potion of Turtle master is actually really helpful if you wanna try to kill the Warden. Still pretty niche use but definitely useful if you wanna take on that challenge.
Funny thing about the warden is it's stupid easy to trap them like most other mobs.
the potion of the turtle mater is so op that I'm surprised players don't use it more often in pvp, the slowness disadvantage can easily be counteracted with a swiftness potion. the only thing I don't like about the potion is the annoying zoom in, is it supposed to be a glitch the devs haven't noticed?
@@sebastiengendron6427 The zoom-in is just a part of the slowness effect, its meant to be there.
@@FireChee it's a bit unnecessary though, does a portion of slowness have the zoom in normally or is because it's a higher tier of slowness is the reason, we get it?
@@sebastiengendron6427 Its zoom strength depends on the strength of the slow effect, meaning lets say you get slowed down 15%, your FOV also gets constricted by 15%, thats for slowness 1 I believe.
As a builder I use Dead bushes all the time for pathway decoration and larger potted plant creation.
Same
the Chain Armor would be nice to equip above the normal armor to even further increase the shield points. This would even encourage to go find chain armors in chests like going to find a notch apple
Even better, use it to make chained armor, which will turn into the normal armor once the chain breaks. Use it to reinforce armor. No extra armor points though, that would be too OP.
@@catsarecool9331but mending exists so, as soon as the player gets mending it becomes useless.
@@darklex5150 don't overthink it. You may not get mending right away either.
I absolutely love the clock and consider it to be one of the most useful tools in the game. With a quick glance, I can know when it's safe to emerge from caves or if I have enough time to leave my house without fear of being surrounded by monsters.
got this ground breaking new feature for you - looking up. or getting somewhat decent at the game, if you find zombies skeletons spiders and creepers hard then idk how you're gonna deal with piglins
I think the dead bushes look really good as decor items if you get creative enough. I have seen so many clever builds that include it.
I've always wanted to use them as currency since they are finite, but switched to bells, which are annoying to get.
You can create a great shrub with a deadbush in a flower pot with sheared leaves or azalea leaves on top.
You can buy bells from certain villagers
Also good for an haunted house builds.
I used it to make potted trees by putting leaves on top of a dead bush in a pot haha
Personally I always use Charcoal. Especially early on. Also something I learned recently is that spectral arrows are really good at combatting the warden since it lets you keep an eye on its location and is still visible even if it hits you with blindness. Allowing you to always track how close it is to you
I find it very useful on skyblock and various other challanges that limit items.
I realized that spectral arrows could be super useful if you shot yourself with it, if you're lost in a dark cave in multiplayer
@@EmperorPenguin1217 That makes me want it in potion form now!
@@pctechnician64 I don't necessarily think it should be a potion, it should also from eating glow berries
@@EmperorPenguin1217 Maybe the glow berries alone can give it to you for a few seconds, but put them in the brewing stand for a potion that lasts longer?
spectral arrows were useful to me when i did nether survival, you essentially take an arrow and double it by crafting it into spectral. quite useful when arrows aren't plentiful
8:41 i don’t think you can locate dungeons
As someone who's been involved with the computation redstone community, locked repeaters are EXTREMELY important. They can be extremely useful in any memory circuit in redstone.
Like i commented, this list is made by a noob who doesn't know what "useless feature" means.
It was a very useful feature, but I think the copper bulb killed 95% of uses of the locking repeater
Bro, he listed that then proceeded to talk about it being useful
Y’all saying he’s calling it useless meanwhile the title is featured that are just “unused”, not necessarily useless
@@bobthepancake2870 I see people use them tho
Spectral arrows are useful to keep track of the warden, since you're able to make him visible even when darkness is applied.
A dumb extra thing about rabbit stew is that the edible ingredients eaten separately fill more hunger than just the one, which makes the stew so useless you really only eat it for the Balanced Diet advancement.
I love how both of the mobs we got in the recent mob votes (glow squid, sniffer, armadillo) and the frog would make their way here cuz all they do is add niche decor or a tiny change
wolf armor is NOT a tiny change at all. that shit will revolutionize combat
@@duckified. Wolf armor itself isn't bad but wolves are still useless because of how bad their AI and damage output is
@@EmperorPenguin1217 around 13 wolves in wolf armor can kill a warden
@@atomek110 You can also easily kill the warden (Not that it's even worth killing) without their armor because of how easily replacable wolves are
@@EmperorPenguin1217 thats still a crap ton of wolves, and arent they one shotted by the warden?
The spectral arrow is really good when taking on ancient cities. it's the only counter to the darkness effect because you can still see outlines
Charcoal has kinda saved my butt a few times. With the new generation it’s harder to come across coal down where diamonds are. I always bring spare wood with me for sticks etc, and sometimes charcoal. Been a few occasions I had to make some because I ran out of torches and coal. Or maybe a tool broke and I needed to smelt up a new one asap.
I'm a torch spammer so i carry a full stack of logs and coal blocks everywhere with me
Since the days of 360 edition i always brought a stack of logs with me, mainly to make little bases in the caves with a crafting table and chest that i could come back for.
But also charcoal is useful as you can make it on the surface before your first mining expedition so you aren't hoping for coal to make your first torches.
And then lategame with pure automatic tree farms (moss farm for bonemeal, and then stone gen -> moss -> azalea sapling and tree -> blast chamber, either duping or dispenser) you can have infinite wood being smelted into charcoal to power a supersmelter.
1.18 really made charcoal useful
You’re right, poisonous potato needs a buff
Maybe a slight chance to get like strength/speed idk
not everything needs a use. some things exist just to exist
My redstoner brain started on fire when you said no one uses locked repeaters, that's the staple for silent toggles
You need 1 arrow and 4 lightstone dust to make 4 spectral arrows, so while the effect they give is only needed in specific situations most players craft them because you just get more arrows by crafting spectral arrows
You also get them from bartering
With is nice addition
I saw someone say that they're good for dealing with the Warden since it will still show the outline even if you are blinded
>lightstone
True old school Minecraft player detected
came to say the same thing but actually yields 2 spectral arrows, its still good to double your arrows if have only a few
The spectral arrow is pretty useful for PvP with teams, especially if each team has actually been teamed by using the /team command that changes the teams nametag color, since the glow effect color glows accordingly with the player nametag color. Also never in my life have I crafted arrows my own, so I always use spectral arrows since theres a plethora of them in bastions. And I'm too lazy to kill skeletons or make a skeleton farm.
I actually really enjoy the ease that outlining the enemies creates, so I used to use them in survival quite often, unfortunately they aren't on bedrock so I don't get to use them as often as I used to
I just use them during the gap between beating the game and setting up villager trades that can give arrows. I usually end up with a stack or so of arrows after trading for pearls, and it’s a lot easier to just use those than crafting arrows manually.
It's also nice in survival. It lets you craft two arrows for the price of one, plus some glowstone. As someone who prefers mending on a bow over infinity, which doesn't work with these arrows, I like spectral arrows alot.
The poisonous potatos finally have a use now lol
as for the charcoal, I often use it in deeplsalte when I run out of torches as coal is relatively rare there, so it's easier to just use bonemeal on a moss block until I get a tree, then I smelt that tree into the charcoal to make torches
Charcoal is actually very useful since the 1.18 update. The moshroom island is very good to build your base on, once you terraform it. Dead bushes are actully really good for decorating. I use locked repeaters all the time on my redstone buildings. The furnace Minecart is actually REALLY useful if you're moving mobs around in rail lines.
I 2nd the dead bushes. I'll put one in a flower pot and then place a block of leaves above it to make it look like a small potted tree.
And I 2nd the furnace minecrart. I had to transport 2 villagers over 500 blocks and didnt have any gold or redstone for powerd rails. But with only a couple of stacks of normal rails, a furnace minecart and oly a SINGLE piece of coal, i managed to move the villagers to my base super easily. An useful item indeed
the dead bush is a good currency because it can't be duplicated
ye, furnace minecart could be used to transport mobs that are dangerous to get close to, such as getting a ghast through portal
Poisoned potatoes are VERY useful as currency in servers as it has no other use and it’s pretty hard to get so it has a use.
Do people really do that? Isn't it bad practice to use a farmeable item as currency?
@@mcflyingfury its farmable sure. but its still not really that common
but even that isn't very common
@@ajaiiix2978 fair enough
@@supernova5934 I'm just saying, if it's used as currency, then someone could hyperinflate the economy with a good farm
Charcoal is really useful if on the first day or if you sold all of your coal to a toolsmith, weaponsmith, or armorer to get it to it’s second level.
1:04 Honestly charcoal has saved me a few times in terms of touches because I was too busy with something else instead of mining and had too many logs
spectral arrows can be useful in warden emergencies. if you hit it from a good enough distance, you risk being detected but get absolute visibility on the creature even through the darkness effect. it may be niche but it may also be a life saver
also it's maybe the easiest way to get a decent amount of arrows in the midgame
@@egon3705Trading with Piglins go brrrr.
@@egon3705 stray farm would give much more useful arrows, though finding a skeleton spawner might be bit tricky
I find them useful when i fight ghasts cuz sometimes they don't die from first shot and i have to take cover for a couple of seconds so knowing where they exactly at has been quite useful.
You can duplicate arrows
Furnace minecarts make great cheap railways. I used one to import a couple villagers to my villager settlement because it meant I could move the villagers faster than using a boat on land, and didn't have to spend a bunch of gold on a railway that was never going to be permanent. Also, the clock is great to gauge when you can sleep-especially when underground.
usually if I want to do transport I just make a canal.
the price is pretty much just shovels, 2 buckets, and a boat.
@@deathhog The cleanup would be more difficult than insta-mining rails though. And inclines would also be a problem. But it'd be a fun way to build a more permanent transport route.
@@RAndrewNeal Oh that's fair, but I would keep it anyway as a permeant transport solution, because "eh, there's a village there anyway"
@@deathhog That's a good point. I just rarely went to the village, even though it was nearby, because it was a desert village and pre-villager overhaul, I think.

I remember thinking back way in the old days of minecraft that desert wells had a chest in them. im pretty sure it was an obscure mod i saw on youtube but I used to check under every desert well and I was always thoroughly disappointed xD
8:57 I used to think Desert Wells meant there would be a Temple nearby….because I would always stumble across the two of them near each other lol….
Uses for some of these features: poisonous potatoes fill more hunger than regular potatoes, and do not always poison you. They are also easy to obtain on servers. Dead bushes are useful for when you spawn in a desert with barely any resources in sight as they give access to sticks. Clocks are useful for people who live underground and have either bees or villagers because they are only awake in the day. Mushroom islands are useful if you want a place where mobs do not spawn (except mooshrooms). Charcoal is useful in skyblock or other challenges as coal is difficult or impossible to come by. For spectral arrows, you get 2 spectral arrows when crafting them, doublng the amount of arrows you have, and piglins also give you them when bartering for enderpearls.
aren't poisonous potatoes used for a potion? I remember making poison potions with them.
@@silentios7336 spider eye is used for poison poisones potatos arent used in anything
Mushroom stew from mooshrooms, infinite food
I honestly prefer using charcoal since coal isn't renewable and villagers will buy it sometimes. I am aware that I'm extremely weird for this.
@@chilljelloton2089 Coal is renewable, wither skeletons drop it.
Charcoal is actually SUPER useful especially after the caves and cliffs update, as coal is a bit weird to find now edit: why the fuck are you guys arguing about farms and shit
I spawned at y level over 100 so there's much coal for me to find
I agree. Plus, charcoal is renewable, coal is not. In my main world I have a tree farm next my base and in a corner I also added a smelter. Every time I go there to restock on wood, I always make sure to leave a couple of stacks of logs in the smelter so that I basically have an infinite source of fuel
@@Merione Coal is renewable, wither skeletons can drop it. It might not be useful at the beginning of the game, but after building a wither skeleton farm, it's a decent way to obtain coal without mining.
Exactly. I can quickly make some charcoal for torches on a caving run
And is superuseful on skyblock, when charcoal is the only way to make torches.
Aesthetic effects surpass practical application in a game like Minecraft in my opinion. When you can’t get more powerful you decide to make beautiful things.
Desert wells are finally useful with archaeology, though it’s much more efficient to just go for an underwater ruin
even though some of these features might not be used a lot, it's still nice to have them. It just gives you more freedom to play the game however you want, which is quite nice.
Charcoal is a great mid game item. One of the first farms that I always construct is a tnt powered tree farm. Charcoal becomes great for fuelling your early game furnace array, especially when you bring several shulkers of sand or any other item that you smelt in mass. It is simply too tedious going out for coal when you have a surplus of logs. As you eventually construct your wither skeleton farm you will probably swap to either coal or coal blocks. (unless ur a bamboo enjoyer. Bamboo is random tick based which mean your massive furnace array would not receive additional fuel whilst being run via chunk loading. If you are going to have something like a 1m bamboo storage you are better off filling that space with coal anyways. What I'm saying is bamboo is not great as your main fuel source but can be used to run smaller arrays that are attached to other random tick/player required based farms.)
or you can make a kelp farm which you can use to get xp and fuel at the same time.
I use it because I admitly hate acacia wood. So I convert any that I happen to get through random means I to charcoal or other things like sticks.
I used to use charcoal a lot though, especially during the 360 era.
You can use kelp or bamboo for furnaces which arent very efficient but you can acquire them in large masses easily
For me, charcoal is pretty much an early game item i use specially for modpacks.
It's definitely more useful now that coal spawns mostly in mountains. Also what ELSE am i supposed to do with all that jungle wood i got clearing out areas for builds
charcoal is very useful bc not only is it renewable, it's automate-able, especially with some mods such as create
Furnace minecart can be useful early on, when powered rails are too expensive. Also, you don't need to be pushed by it, you can hook onto it by moing into it with your own minecart and powering it when you're partialy inside it. Also, it will never stop on slopes
For the beetroots, beetroot stew gives you more saturation (which is different than hunger) than regular beetroots which is why it is better than six beetroots
Edit: It would seem my comment sparked some controversy
beetroots suck and its soup just suck %1 less
@@Space_e_e_E_sucks the same bc u cant stack it
beetroot stew are not better, they give 7.2 saturation, and beetroot give 1.2 saturation, which is 1/6.
Crafting beetroot stew is useless, they don't stack and they are not better than eating 6 beetroot
Not worth the tradeoff
To elaborate, saturation is an invisible stat which decides when hunger starts depleting. It's consumed by anything that drains hunger, albeit at a faster rate. When you regen quickly after eating, that's your saturation being consumed
for some redstone machines, poisonous potatoes are actually handy as item clogs for hoppers so you can siphon materials without having to let the hopper fill up first
Thats actually a good point
Just naming any random Block with an anvil does the same thing doesnt it?
That's literally any items can do.
Especially the comment above mine
Also useful for trolling noobs
@@Magnus-ck4cu Yes except all other items do have _some_ value
I use clocks in my underground bases. Helps to know if I should wait and sleep before going exploring.
Charcoal is pretty useful early game tho, I always use it if either im going down a cave for the first time in the world or if I ran out of coal midgame and I cant be bothered to go mining for a while.
They should make Desert Wells only generate in deserts where there’s no water for like 100 200 or 300 blocks
That doesn’t really make it useful because it’s not hard to get water in the first place
@@kirbtheblob desert wells would be useful if there was something like a thirst bar (although getting water in minecraft is so easy that it's usefulness would be debatable).
Did yall forget about the trails and tales update? I mean, I know pottery's not everyone's thing, but still
@@darklex5150it could serve as a waypoint to know where are you in a desert
that makes archeology too hard
The furnace minecart is a great way of moving mobs on a temporary rail without having to setup (or even make) powered rails. It's simpler, and when transporting multiple mobs, you usually care more about them actually getting there that how fast they get there. So no. They're not useless.
i use them when im dealing with villagers all the time bc i dont have a gold farm yet
same thought :D
Imo, boat-carts (a glitch where a boat goes in a minecart) are better. There self-propelled after 1 push and are faster than furnace carts, and can also push around 2 extra minecarts
It'd be cool if you could link them together
Does it work with shulkers? Because I know you can't push a shulker in a minecart.
charcoal is extremely useful and I've actually pretty frequently used charcoal in the early game when playing hardcore. I think I've been exceptionally unlucky when it comes to finding my first coal. I actually had one hardcore game where i had several pieces of iron equipment before i found my first coal. even in the later game though, it can be good to know about in a bind.
Honestly, the create mod makes furnace minecarts INCREDIBLE, as you can build a literal steam engine out of the things, then connect a bunch of carts to make a realistic train
I usually use charcoal over coal, you can always easily get a lot of it and I don't have to go to the mines to get fuel (I mostly prefer other aspects of the game).
Also I didn't know about locked repeaters at all! Thank you for explaining it!
Charcoal is my #1 fuel, even late game when I can farm coal since I can use coal to trade/train blacksmiths.
totally agree, especially if you play modded because with mods like create you can make extremely efficient automatic tree farms pretty much from early-mid game so it becomes easier to get charcoal than to go mine for coal
I use charcoal more as well!
for no. 3, making spectral arrows with glowstone actually doubles the amount of arrows you have, so if you hav enough glowstone and need more arrows (say in a speedrun) it can be quite useful
With the most recent update to Minecraft, desert wells spawn with suspicious sand:)
While ive never needed to use it, i do think the turtle master potion could have uses in small spaces like dungeons, where it might be handy to have some extra resistance but mobility isnt as important, but idk tho
furnace minecarts have a way to make "trains" of up to 4 minecarts (which break when turning) and also desert wells aren't considered structures by the game. Instead they are considered "features" which I think is also what naturally-spawning trees are considered.
Leather boots have become useful since the powder snow was added, because they prevent you from sinking. Rabbit hides are going to be useful very soon, I hope, once the bundle is finally added in the vanilla game. They are cute too ^^ And desert wells are also finally useful as of the latest snapshot, because they became an archaeology site!
just get better
Ok, be real. Most people stay the fuck away from biomes with powder snow. Also rabbits are ass to kill and you have to kill a bunch to make an item with a VERY specific use.
@@d4cto Maybe so. I like keeping a pair of snow boots in my ender chest just in case!
@@valkeakirahvi I used to do that right after powder snow was added but then I realised that I never go there because there is practically no reason for it outside of "maybe I need a shitload of buckets with snow for cool looking landing pad with carpets".
yea and you can just use water, gets rid of the snow instantly. and also the powder snow is so slow to die from you can just mine your way out@@d4cto
The poisonous potato doesn't just poison you it completes the 2 achievements like the balanced diet
One of my survival worlds made me spawn at like a quad-point between the Plains, Savanna, Beach and the Badlands. Dead bushes from the Badlands have been very helpful for me as a cheap and easy to get source for sticks.
For the spectral arrow, Piglins can trade it to you in bulk, making them useful earlier game.
more expensive fletcher
Also need it for How Did We Get Here
On our server, I exclusively use spectral arrows because I get so many from trading with piglins. I find a shitton of gold and have little use for it otherwise. Also I like trading with my silly guy.
You can build a basic mob grinder in like 15 minutes very early on and it gives you infinite arrows for free
I’ve started using charcoal instead of coal with the last update. Coal now is harder for me to find and wood is plentiful and easy to get. It’s a lot easier now to have a tree farm than to scour the mines for coal.
Especially since u can skyrocket the amount of coal u have: 1>8>64>8*64>64*64 etc. And this takes like half an hour if ur chopping 2X2 spruce trees to get more than a double chest full of coal. Only negative I see is u can't craft it into blocks.
Personally I use charcoal a lot from time to time. Mostly because I’m out of coal and can’t be asked to get more or i’m playing skyblock in which it suddenly makes a lot of sense
mushroom biome should come with a mushroom cave biome as well, with glowing mushrooms :) glowing mushroom could be used to scare away mobs, that would tie in nicely with the fact that hostile mobs dont spawn in the biome.
I’ve always used charcoal. It’s really useful especially for the start of the game and for automatic smelting.
I don't have time to mine at levels coal spawns at anymore.
Also Charcoal is mega useful in Skyblock
@Iknowthismeme It's been roughly 10 years since I last was in vanilla Minecraft. I've played on a server. When I came back a couple weeks ago, coal generates completely differently and is much more rare. I've been almost exclusively relying on charcoal. I've been playing since Beta 1.4
I use charcoal to make a campfire early game for food
I use charcoal all the time. Yeah, I mine a lot to get coal, but early pre-mining for torches and campfires is really handy by burning a few trees.
I wish the Mushroom Island biome had it's own foliage. Like, if you've found the Cherry Grove biome from the recent update, there are these decorative "pink petals" all over the ground that work like Sea Pickles and Candles, where you can stack multiple on a block and it changes their appearance. Maybe having some mushrooms that can do that, or some "spores." It would also be fun if the cows munched on the spores and mushrooms, giving a sort of in-game explanation as to their appearance.
Finally I can make my base moldy
I wish the potion of luck had a use. They could make frogs drop frog legs which could be cooked and eaten or used to make a potion of leaping. That way, a rabbits foot could be used for a potion of luck.
When consumed, would increase the likely hood of mobs dropping rare items. Zombies dropping iron and carrots, mobs wearing armour. Could also work like looting and provide more general drops. It would also increase rare and unique loot tables when finishing or opening vaults and dungeon chests
Oh my sweet summer child ; ). Where most see useless features, others see potential
I honestly love the furnace minecart cause when used properly really does make a train. You can actually link the furnace minecart with a regular minecart then wherever the furnace goes, you follow. It's such a cool mechanic that would be so cool if minecarts as a whole weren't so weak. I think my favorite part about the furnace minecart was that I found a way that it would essentially push my minecart and take me somewhere and would always be in front of my minecart no matter which destination I was at. It's made transportation so much funner especially since you could link it with a minecart chest and literally create easy ways of transporting items. I remember in a dmo making a coal mine that made it so you could literally call for a minecart chest and put your iron and ores in it and then use the furnace minecart to send it back to the surface to make mining so much easier since you didn't have to keep throwing away all that cobblestone. Man I really do wish Mojang didn't just forget all about minecarts and rails cause it could be so much fun if it was buffed and fleshed out some more. Who doesn't wanna create huge train systems throughout your world.
But whe have powered rail lol
@@jpro6413 powered rail is expencive and feels useless when you can use a powered minecart to do the same way cheaper
Price has no meaning if you are building rails, because at that point, you probably have a few mob farms set up already
@@JamesTDG Lmao you don't even need any farms for rails. Rails are the easiest thing in the game to duplicate infinitely. I had a double chest filled with powered rails that's how easy it is to dupe.
Im a bedrock player, and furnace minecart is my preferred method of transporting villagers on land, in the early game finding rails is easy in mineshafts, and since you just do it the once, there is no point in making a hole track of power rails. Furnace minecarts are underated as far as minecarts go, but yeah they need a rework.
About the spectral arrow: it's very nice since you get tons by trading with piglins, no need for a skeleton farm. Also it's great against the Warden since he gives you blindness, so if you shoot him you can keep track of where he is, finally just in pvp - if you shoot someone they can't hide behind a tree or hill for 10 seconds, it's more useful than you might think.
I have a tradition that in every world I must put a dead bush in a pot with a sign saying “georg bosh” Clocks are useful to check if it’s still morning or evening before you go outside so you don’t get caught out at night far from home.
Furnace minecarts are amazing. Using it means you never have to craft and set up powered rails for moving mobs like villagers around. If you’re not using it, you’re crazy.
The mushroom island is pretty great, building your base without monster spawns is awesome. It's also good when making mob grinders just outside of the biome because of increased efficiency
I hate that it usually spawns thousands of blocks away. I can deal with the rarity but I just want to get there fast yk
9:15 i remember in early versions when the only structures on the surface were villagers, temples and villages and the world felt emptier, stumblimg across one was cool, i used to think those meant a desert village was nearby
The poisonous potato April fools update made the poisonous potato more useful, but yes, it was an April fools update.
In a public survival server where me and four others are hiding in and making a cave livable, furnace minecarts and beatroots are our life blood starting up from what we managed to salvage.
Charcoal used to be more useful for auto-smelters. Hook up a tree farm to an auto-smelter, and loop the charcoal back into the furnaces to make more.
With the advent of bamboo, however, it lost that use, as bamboo can be used directly.
The spectral arrow is crazy useful. It costs one normal arrow to make two spectral arrows. If you don’t have infinity (or want mending on your bow), you can double your amount of arrows and given them added functionality
why not just use a bartering farm for infinite spectral arrows?
@@merlin1243 that's not the kinda thing most normal players do...
The better alternative is to get a medium-sized brewing room set up and just get tipped arrows. My personal favorite is instant damage, but you can use whatever you want. Granted in java its harder to make tipped arrows. In bedrock however, you can make literal hundreds of tipped arrows pretty early on in your game
@@nakdu3936 huh? i didn't know that last part
they are a GODSEND if you have to deal with the warden
I think some of this stuff, like dyed leather armor and potions of leaping/turtle master give a lot of options and creativity to multiplayer, parkour maps, and story adventure maps.
Furnace minecarts can actually be pretty helpful since they launch other minecarts at the max speed, allowing you to use less powered rails uphill and across. Plus, as long as the track is straight, you can use them to push minecarts along to clear ones that get lost or left behind.
8:24; Speedrunners use spectral arrows that they get from piglin trades to kill the dragon. They don't care about the glowing effect.
So they're not using it for its use?
Locked repeaters are actually used in a very useful redstone circuit. The worlds smallest combination lock. Its only 1 block tall and can be extended infinitely
I actually do use dead bushes a lot in decoration. You can make plants with them and with a pot it can be used for a lot of decor tricks
personally i find spectral arrows very useful, they make it easier to tell where the mob you're trying to hit is if it's something far away or you're just in a dark environment. the crafting recipe isn't worth it but you can get them from bartering with piglins
8:38 My brother always told me that if you go south of a desert well, you will find a desert temple. I believed it for 4-5 years.
It's semi-true, a desert well means there's a village or desert temple in a radius (I forgot how big the radius is, though.)

1:10 ABUNDANT YET NEVER AVAILABLE WHEN I PLAY
5:59 when it comes to dyeing armour when playing with my siblings we color code our rooms and armour in game so things don't accidentally get taken LOL
6:11 clocks are my love and idc what anyone says lol. They go in item frames on my house walls or in my inventory when mining
I always use dead bushes as decoration when I put leaves on top of it it looks really nice
I only use charcoal or lava in my furnaces save the coal to sell to villagers, didnt know that was considered odd, love the video!
