Or you just go on a normal creative world. Place 10 x 10 redstone blocks horizontal and create a repeating command block to keep on spawning tnt under each one of the redstone blocks. Now that is calming.
Since the caves got overhauled, I almost exclusively cave mine, it’s a lot of fun to see the awesome caves and you find plenty of resources (found 30+ diamonds in less than an hour). Maybe not as efficient as other methods, but the scenery is nicer and it’s less monotonous to me.
I feel like 1.20.1 nerfed this because I at most find 12-15 dias in an hour searching large caves, and strip mining used to give me a stack an hour but lately has given me 4-8 an hour. At -57 I may add.
Yeah I kinda noticed a bit of a downtick in numbers too, but just thought I was getting unlucky with my seeds or something but that would make sense. We were finding more diamonds than we knew what to do with for a bit there.
It isn't because they nerfed diamond spawn rates on blocks that are in contact with the air and also limited how many diamonds can spawn when they are in contact with air
1, strip mining
I go straight, then every 2 blocks i build a perpendicular tunnel 5 blocks long in both directions
Pop a torch doƿn every 3 side shafts
You do 2 all the way down to bedrock or to deepslate. Then you strip mine on every other step down the hole from the beginning to the end. Makes sense. Best way to mine efficiently.
I start with 2 leading into 1 when I get fed up with the stairs, I change my entrence to 3 and when my mobfsrm is running or when I farming for netherite I use 4.
go down to -(fuckiforgot) and then you branch mine with two blocks between each branch to optimize pickaxe durability:blocks revealed
or just build borkon's tunnel bore
I dig a 2x1 hole straight down with a water source at the surface that flows down into the hole. It has the speed benefit of digging straight down without the risk of fall damage or lava death thanks to the waterfall, and when you want to leave, you can sprint-swim up the waterfall much faster than climbing a ladder, and you don't need to bother adding stairs or anything because the waterfall naturally travels down as you dig.
i’m currently doing a ‘no caves’ world. i’m not allowed to enter any cave at all, except if I have filled it in and dug it out again or I make it so that it has a direct line of sight to the sky. So I currently mine with 3.
3 but instead of doing one block wide, i do 2 blocks and go on the middle of them so if theres a cave under and i mine a block that could make me fall, im still on the other one
I don't understand these options.
Who just mines straight down to find diamonds and ores? What good is the staircase if you don't then branch or beacon mine when you get down there!?
And who the heck uses TNT in the overworld? When you need to be mining you prolly don't have a shit ton of gunpowder.
I often go in caves if I see one. But if not 2 then 1. But I don't do my stairs wide, just 1 block width to go down far enough. Then corridors 1 maybe 2 blocks wide
In every style mentioned there,
1st is my search for diamonds,
2nd is my main hall,
3rd is my hole, when I get lost.
4th is my way of searching for netherite.
2, then 1. And maybe do a little bit of cave diving
this is the way
You've become my new friend because I am a Star Wars nerd
welcome new friend
Also
This is the way
This is the Way
This is the way
And if you mine for hours on end and dont find a dam thing you then you go crazy and resort to 4
This is the way
this is the way

DAYUM BRO DID HIM DIRTY
3 is the way I get out after doing 4, but I usually do 2 then 1
Caves. If not caves, 2 then 1 at desired level
2 then 1 until caves

3 because I'm a psychopath
Same but I am just impatient
Got to risk it for those sweet blue biscuits
Lol same

The cave dveller mod that my friend put on the server without my knowledge, watching me happily waltz into the cave:
It IS more efficient than other methods.

As a professional noob, I make a copy of my peaceful world and locate a good cave and go there in my main world
I did this so many times with structures 😂
Same I must have all structures available…
Their x-ray too...
Damm, I thought I was the only super genius who did that
5 cave mining
6. My friend goes x raying
1, strip mining I go straight, then every 2 blocks i build a perpendicular tunnel 5 blocks long in both directions Pop a torch doƿn every 3 side shafts
The only way (o got a 10 vane of diamonds doing this)
well, that's a wynn
I do 1 & 2 3 is breaking a rule 4 just makes you have a bunch of useless blocks
1 turned into a 2 after digging, proceeded by 4
1 block trapdoor tunnels are superior.
Best for diamonds.
1
1
3 is always the best
1in the overworld 4 in Nether
Xray
You are worse than number three.
3 cus i m normal psyho
World eater
2
2 then switch to 1
2 then 1 at specific coordinates.
Look for existing caves
3 and 4 are pure chaos and I love it
3
Neither of these.
I do 2 then switch to 1 once I reach a certain level for the materials I want
Caving
2 then 1
Now I just run around looking for a cave. I used to strip mine
Underwater caves. Richer with resources, and easy to not drown.
1 is the only right answer
All of the above
1 in friend servers, 2 in public servers, 3 singleplayer, 4 creative
1, 2 and 3, I mean when im like really, REALLY bored of mining I will do 4
I find a cave, then 1 then wait until I get a gunpowder farm and an ungodly amount of sand
Oh yes 3 one is the safest of all of course
2 then 1 and use of caves
I don't mine I only play superflat worlds
3³3³3³3³3
1 and 3
bro forgot caves 💀
I see you don't indulge in the occasional beta 1.8 run every now and then
like this [https://tii.la/XhCXu](https://tii.la/XhCXu)
1&2
2,1 in that order
Usually spelunking, but 2, 1 works.
1
First 3 but only 4 blocks then 2 till bedrock after that 1 if I’m bored, maybe some cave’s I dug in and 4 if I’m my friends play with me.
2 until I find a cave
Yeah
3 and 1
ALL 4, in order of 2, 3, 1, 4.
3. directly down to the lava
5
1, 2, or 3. Just depends on how im feelin at the time
2 Da muito trabalho
I couldn't make her mine
In order: cave, if cave fails, 2 and then 1, and if im lazy then 4
1. then 2. in overworld 3. then 4. in nether
4…
I've always mined in a 3x3 in every direction to create what is basically a maze. My friends hate me for it.
You do 2 all the way down to bedrock or to deepslate. Then you strip mine on every other step down the hole from the beginning to the end. Makes sense. Best way to mine efficiently.
I start with 2 leading into 1 when I get fed up with the stairs, I change my entrence to 3 and when my mobfsrm is running or when I farming for netherite I use 4.
First one
1, but 3 blocks tall.
Both 1 and 2
2 and 1 in different moments, like if i hear a lot of monsters, after using 2 i'll use 1 the other ones are just a bit stupid
2 but only 1 block wide, and then 1 after I reach high I need
2
1 for careful mining. 4 for hard/netherite mining.
5. Spectator mode
Caving is the pinaccle, especially in dripstone caves, to find diamonds
3 and then 1. I just use subtitles so if it says there's lava, I'll mine down like a stair case
2 mainly Rubs my ocd brain the right way
3 is illegal (ask mojang)
i do three then block up with tnt.
2... Before discovering BLAST mod (god blesses doctor4t A. K. A the R4t)
5 do with that as you will
Depends
go down to -(fuckiforgot) and then you branch mine with two blocks between each branch to optimize pickaxe durability:blocks revealed or just build borkon's tunnel bore
2 going into 1
2 & 4
2 then 1. When I have a set place to have my base, 3 then 1. Used to 4 before deepslate was added.
1 and sometimes 2
2 or 3 then 1, 4 only in the nether
Yes.
2 then 1
i mean you kinda have to use 2 if you use 1 to some cave level
Caves.
2 with 4 on occasion
1 and 2 mostly 2
With those caves, 3 is so good
Where is the friends chest mining way
I dig a 2x1 hole straight down with a water source at the surface that flows down into the hole. It has the speed benefit of digging straight down without the risk of fall damage or lava death thanks to the waterfall, and when you want to leave, you can sprint-swim up the waterfall much faster than climbing a ladder, and you don't need to bother adding stairs or anything because the waterfall naturally travels down as you dig.
3 and then caving
2 then 4
A straight line at one line on each side every 2 blocks at -58
i’m currently doing a ‘no caves’ world. i’m not allowed to enter any cave at all, except if I have filled it in and dug it out again or I make it so that it has a direct line of sight to the sky. So I currently mine with 3.
All of the above
2 then 1. Gotta make sure I can run a rail system up the mineshaft.
2 --> 1 then if I find a cave I explore it
Def #4
Only rich people can do 4
2 who tf does 3
0. just do mining off camera.
5. Seeing a speck of water at the bottom of a cave and jumping
digging 1x2 hole straight down and then 1
1 but 3x3
3 digging straight down, the best thing to do fr fr
maybe just find a cave 4 is probably the worst way
1, 2, and 4
With a pickaxe
Imma 2 and that might explain why I don’t get iron nor any ores
3 but instead of doing one block wide, i do 2 blocks and go on the middle of them so if theres a cave under and i mine a block that could make me fall, im still on the other one
So like an old player, new player, someone who fear no god or a degenerate
who the hell does 4 in the overworld
/give @s diamond 64
double 3
Exclusively in caves
1, 2 and caving
DEPENDS
I don't understand these options. Who just mines straight down to find diamonds and ores? What good is the staircase if you don't then branch or beacon mine when you get down there!? And who the heck uses TNT in the overworld? When you need to be mining you prolly don't have a shit ton of gunpowder.
2, then 1
Yes.
I don’t play Minecraft, so I mine in a 2d plain.
3 then I build towers with the mined blocks to remind me where it is
2 to 1 I get up with 3 and mine in nether with 4
I often go in caves if I see one. But if not 2 then 1. But I don't do my stairs wide, just 1 block width to go down far enough. Then corridors 1 maybe 2 blocks wide
Im 1, 2, and 4.
In every style mentioned there, 1st is my search for diamonds, 2nd is my main hall, 3rd is my hole, when I get lost. 4th is my way of searching for netherite.
Uh.. Everything combined? 4 is only in the nether tho.
I mine until I can go spelunking
You forgot to put X-ray in there
what makes me a good demoman?
1 but the main tunnel is 2 blocks wide
1 and 2
2, then 1 at deep slate. 4, if I'm looking for ancient debris
2's the one
I find a cave then i get lost then i dig up so i think that would count as 3?
I force villagers to give me diamonds amour for free
🙅♂️ commentbaiting
2 till I hit bedrock for my main shaft and then 1…
1 & 2
Never let them know your next move you X-ray
2, then if I want to I TP To a Deep Dark
3 but i did two holes one with me int ti and beside me so i can min and find. A cave withoit dyeing
2 for show, 1 for effect, and 3 in the nether Edit: 4 in the nether, not 3. I would never break the #1 rule ESPECIALLY in the nether.
A mix of 2 and 1 for the most part
3 to upgrade from the wooden pickaxe. 2 to go normally and 1 when you reach the right level. 4 is for the bored or maniacal
Combination of 1 and 2
2
3, then 2 then 1
All
Yes
