Mining Gold & Automatic Bartering! ▫ Minecraft Survival Guide (1.18 Tutorial Lets Play) [S2 E69] 

The small piglin in your outro is looking for his friends, Bartleby Jr. and Bartleby Jr. Little does he know that he's standing on top of them...

I really like the way that even when things don't quite go to plan, you leave in the "mistakes" so people can learn from them.... It can be quite demoralising when watching other creators that seem to be able to do things perfectly all the time (because editing). It shows new players that even folks who have been playing for years can make slightly janky farms that don't work quite how they expected them to! There always seems to be this big expectation in gaming, that if you don't do things perfectly, that you're not good at the game, when in reality, everyone has their off days, and everyone has to build, take down, rebuild, and try different ideas to see what works best... it's lovely to see these little set backs :) Keep doing your thing Pix, still loving your content 👍❤

Watching you spleef the baby piglins who kept stealing your gold was the highlight of the video 😂

I loved how the baby piglin was watching you as you did the outro. I could hear him saying "nice hat mister" and "who you talking to mister?" LOL. Thank you for the awesome series

Pix : Mines an entire chunk Also Pix : Decorates builds in Gold Block Alsoooo Pix : *we need to go out looking for some Gold*

I love the badlands' reference to the US gold rush. I wonder if ever archeology would be added, if you brush out the gravel from badlands rivers (or just in the badlands themselves because I imagine that being difficult to code) that you might get gold nuggets from that.

A side by side comparison of all the similar farms you’ve made between seasons 1 & 2 would be pretty cool. I like the similarities of their purposes, but how they differ when it comes to aesthetic, and function. (Also it’s episode 69 😎 nice)

I'm sure you figured this out on your own, but it seems like the piglin being on the edge of the hopper is what's causing him to not get the gold, making him off-center. In other words, he's too close to the other piglin when the game tries to give him the ingot, and that's why it's getting "stolen" from him. Maybe having the dispenser/dropper behind them instead of above them would solve the problem, so that the ingots are being shot more directly at them instead of being dropped from above?

Hi Pixlriffs! Just wanted to say thank you for working so hard for us. So consistently and so concisely. All these episodes over the years i never take it for granted. ty bro

Rather than a clock, since an item is passing through a hopper, a comparator can be used to create a signal when an item enters the hopper which in turn can trigger the dropper to send another gold.

I made a boba piglin. Big armored piglin spawned in my nether base, with a baby piglin alongside. I wasn't wearing gold and had none to throw, so I killed it and it dropped its helmet. The baby picked up the helmet and ran off. Who knows whether it despawned or if it’s still plotting its revenge.

ep 69......NICE

Well that cleared up one thing, the gold doesn't spawn in the terracotta layers. Guess I need to find something to do with the 12 double chests of terracotta I have :) I am seeing a load of gold lower down, its a bit of a saver for me because I need gold to heal my villagers, and I'm not quite to the point of making a zombie gold farm. I've heard Mojang are nerfing the XP bit of zombie gold farms, so we're going to have to go back to killing them by hand if we want an XP farm and to get the ingots. I'm slowly adjusting to the new ore changes - once you get the hang of it, it seems diamonds are at least as easy to get at Y -54 as -58 and you have fewer lava issues. I seem to be getting more diamonds that I did in 1,17 despite the slower digging through deepslate, so it seems Mojang have got the balance right. I'm liking this series Pixel, some seem to think its a bit slow but I think the pace is right, you're taking time to explain stuff which is good - there's no reason to race to get everything done. As far as the bartering system, I dispense the gold to a pressure plate at head level between 2 piglins standing on carpet. They can get the gold diagonally through glass, and when they take all the gold, the pressure plate releases and you can use the signal to dispense more gold. The system runs pretty automatically then, without the need for timers.

Love me' self a good barternin' mate

26:19 that baby piglin staring at pixlriffs is wondering where his friends are...

You can increase the bartering station to a great extent if you have a gold farm to supply gold above the bartering station. You can also put an automatic brewing station under the bartering station. Because as piglins trade water bottles, your brewing station can run for a really long time and it would look so cool! You can also trade away the leather and string to leatherworker and shepherd villagers for emeralds and free xp!

We can safely say that Project Bartleby is a great success! Very enjoyable. Thanks also for sharing the coordinates to the Badlands areas. So many possibilities for building in that terrain. I'm thinking of building a Moroccan riad..

Episode 69... *nice.*

I think the next few episodes would be regarding the gold farm bcoz he would need/use a huge amount of gold in this bartering farm..

Keep up the good work pix! :)

The best episode in the lets play. NICE

12:24 I love the way you handled that pesky baby. :D

I always appreciate the time and effort you put into these videos. Been watching since the first survival guide, and I still enjoy the new series, and occasionally still learn something new as well! Keep up the good work Pix!

Well it’s been a good solid few months work but managed to watch all the episodes and am nearly up to date with live!

Have you seen the design with a gold pressure plate activating the dropper every time piglins pick up gold from it.

For some reason, when I try to click the like button, I fat finger the dislike button. I always fix it, but I hope it’s not affecting your algorithms. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 I’m loving this series, just killed the ender dragon (first time ever) in MCPE on an iPad with a touch screen. Headed end city raiding for elytra (hopefully multiple) this weekend! TY Pix!!!

Very *nice* episode.

I'm gonna be honest I had no idea blackstone button existed... Tried making a lever with blackstone, didn't work, then I concluded you can't use it to craft redstone components with it 🤷‍♂️

Badland biome mining is good for early game gold, but to get some renewable gold, check out ianxofour gold farm. It doesnt require magma blocks but it produces 2700 gold ingots per hour. And if u need a ton of wither skulls like me (since i like to fight multiple withers at once in the nether ceiling with end crystals), check out the same channel for a wither skeleton farm that produces 100 skulls per hour with absolutely no spawnproofing. And for the barter farm, he did an insanely fast barter farm which is also much easier.

Guess what I've read first? ... automatic bartending! 🙂

Just started playing again after 11 years. An upgrade made me rage quit when it destroyed an 8X4 red stone activated gate I made for the for the front of my castle. Back then red stone would travel threw 2 blocks of nether rack, is that still true? I haven't reached the nether yet.

The first Piglin I got for an early game bartering farm I named Chuck, every time you said chuck I got a solid Chuckle out of it.

Bartleby Family Bartering? And did you liberate those little piglin thieves their gold? Baby Piglins are the absolute worst.

Another very interesting video !! We also learn a lot from your small "mistakes" in fact. Thanks for that.

Finally I'm early Pixlriffs is such a hard worker and so consistent. Thanks!!

Really the only parts you need access to during normal operation are the input, the output, and the levers. All of which can be put on the end of the line if desired, so then the whole setup can stretch in a line away from your path. Being able to see the piglins is useful for trouble-shooting while you're building the thing, but once it's working, you never have to go back there again, unless you want to expand the thing to have more booths.

have you considered that that Bartleby simply decided that he would prefer not to?

No one talking about the deep dark her found in the Mesa biome? No? Alright 😭😂

instead of the nametag, you could have given them some golden Armor to wear....

Before I knew badlands are for gold, I went into a mineshaft for diamonds and came back with a lot of gold blocks. That was in 1.16, mining just gold ore block.

The little piglin in the outro😫 "Hey mister....can I see your pretty hat please?"

Gold for me seems to be far more valuable for 8 nether bricks or etc. I would consider this farm if I have gold farm at first place.

Nice

logical geekboy has made a farm that's modular where the gold gets dispensed on top of a pressure Plate that the piglins can reach. and as soon as they pick that ingot up a new one gets dispensed. I found that super elegant.

just realized ive only seen badlands like once in all my years of playing Minecraft

In the end he's just doing the usual outro but on the inside he's crying...

Lol you really put a nametag on a piglin and named it Bartleby🤣🤣🤣🤣

Seems like ziglin gold farm is the next episode 😏 😏 😏

Why don't you put a chest minecart underneath that leads to a double chest so you have all drops in one place

Can you not stack them 20 to a cell and have a much faster clock? (The overall rates wouldn’t change, but would be rather more compact, and no diagonal issues).

(I realise this stuff only tangentially fits with the episode, but I thought I'd mention it in case anyone wants advice on ways to get lots of gold in a hurry but not necessarily in a long term renewable way) Pixlriffs covered this in episode 42 of survival guide season 2, but another place you can get gold (and if you have an elytra, arguably the fastest low-risk method) is the ocean monuments, where every monument has 8 gold blocks hidden together in a dark prismarine box in a room at the back of the monument. It's a mid-game method, in that all you need is an elytra, 3 doors and a good sword for killing creepers (for gunpowder for rockets), and it's fast since you don't need to setup a smelter, and with an elytra you can cover vast amounts of ocean, and spot the monuments very easily (by contrast, gold ore/nether gold ore mining is much slower, and bastion raiding is riskier, and even with an elytra is slower, since nether terrain is more of a maze than flying over the oceans). [EDIT: I forgot about gold ore dropping multiple raw gold post 1.17, so it's quite possible that with good terrain and cave generation in a mesa biome, the method pixlriffs demostrates in this video is in fact champion!] In order to not get mining fatigue, when you spot the monument turn down your render distance to 2 and approach the monument from the back (where there's like 6 small arches on the roof), and then dig down at the arches and the gold room will be under one of them (apart from the outermost arch on either end). Or don't bother with render distance stuff and just carry some buckets of milk with you. It's certainly quicker than other methods if for example you're speedrunning trying to get a beacon's worth of gold. However if you're wanting much much more gold than that/a reliable source of gold long term then setting up a gold farm is definitely the way to go, as much like with the other methods (ore mining/bastion raiding) at the start you'll get gold galore but after a while you'll find yourself having to go further and further to find untouched gold (plus gold farms are usually AFKable :D ) If you're wanting gold specifically for some quick bartering though, then bastions are probably the best way to go since there's already a bunch of piglins that won't despawn chilling nearby.

An alternative to using a red stone clock that one of the people in my SMP did was to have the dropper spit out the gold ingot on a gold pressure plate. Then when the piglin picks it up, the pressure plate triggers the dropper to spit out another gold ingot. Requires a decent amount of gold in the first place to make all the lightweight pressure plates, but it means there’s always an ingot for them to grab as long as there is gold in the system.

Is the presence of Dark Oak in mineshafts exclusive to badlands or is it random?

You missed a name tag in that badlands minecart chest

Episode NICE

Ep 69 and mine is the 69th comment. Nice!

3:10 I don’t think that’ll taste good 😂

11:36 That timing is perfect!

This is so simple thank you pix!

On the angle was a little ambitious for sure. Maybe not having the 4 middle one so close. Do cells of 2 then a solid block then 2 more and try it that way. If that won't work then I guess make cells on the flat side.

this save me lot's of time I have no idea

Hello Pixlriffs!

Why don't you trap more than one piglin in a single cell and increase the redstone clock speed

I know the color of “Survival Guide” changes in the thumbnails but what do they mean? Other than purple aligning with end-based episodes, and I feel like black aligns with nether/special hostile mob focused episodes? idk I might be speculating but it would be cool to know if there was an actual system

For the love of Gold, Montresor!

I have tons of gold to Barter

In bedrock I think you can get soulspeed books from fishing, don't quote me...

The "Project Bartleby" is a Big Bartering success! oh & when you said their names, Do the Bartman come to mind ☺ not heard/thought of that song in years!! 🖖👍🏻

Nice episode number.

Ugh I wish Mojang would update the Savannah. It’s ridiculously boring as a biome

I like how the baby piglen was watching you do the outro. Great design, I must build one. thx.

This is good 👍

you should putt blue fire in the road and blue mushrooms , making a safe place in portals

I love how we both built a piglin bartering system at the same time lol. I made one before your vid came out and then same time I see yours. Fantastic video! :)

poor baby piglins they will never despawn & trapped forever 😢

You might be able to get around the problem with piglins picking up their neighbors' gold by moving the dispensers up one block, and putting webs where the dispensers originally where. That'll keep the items from straying to one side or the other of the block

In my world in new generated chunks copper is ultra rare. But I find gold everywhere and it's not a mesa biome. Weird. But I take it. Also a super efficient copper xp farm to even things out.

Our piglin farm needs a sorting mechanism as people just throw gold in, take what they need and leave the rest of the junk behind, which is slightly irritating lol.

The moment you started building it diagonal I was like NOOOOOOoooooo. You could still get away with that if you drop the gold onto the block next to each chamber alterneting sides or the same side one ingot at a time (in a sequence), but it's way easier to make it straight.

bro just recently started watching you love your vids bro💯💯💯🔥

Almost 1M subs!!

anyone know how to stop glow squid from spwaning i try light it did not work ????

Was wondering why the vid was an hour late and I just remembered day light savings.

Great Video love it❤️👍

This is the one farm that is way better on Bedrock edition. You only need one piglin and can barter through an entire dispenser of gold bars in mere minutes.

69 episode

If i could make a wish, a would like to see a non roof gold farm in the nether at the survival guide.

I would hate for you to have to rebuild that piglin farm, maybe there's a way to move that one into the center of the hopper?

Nice.

You probably don't take many mob name suggestions from the comments (unlike Wattles) but what about naming the Piglins Barter Simpson? Or even Bart Simpson or just Barter or Bart if you're so inclined xb

Wow

Does java edition have the "instant bartering" feature? I know I bedrock that if you move a gold block/ gold ore block continuously with a piston you can "zero tick" the bartering .
