41:43 - "Have I counted how many berries in the death room? Many. 15-20 stacks" OK, so not the best rates but I'm glad after all this that your berry farm is working
Seeing all the berries collected from the Hermits finishing their runs, I get it now, Tango made the most OP Minecraft berry farm. He is a devious genius.
I love how last stream, Scar tries to jumpscare Tango with a Ravager costume and gets nothing. Gem, with no costume, elicits a cry of shock, surprise and terror.
@giovannicurotto5134 I assume they work the same as zombies and normal skellys, who will pick up an item as long as its better than their current one. so if it has a diamond helmet it will only pick up a netherrite one, if it has iron it'll pick up gold diamond or netherrite
@@Flynja1 Not even close to slavery, and while yes I get that you were going for a quirky joke it's just not funny at all. The hermits aren't being tortured, starved, and forced to work for Tango, they're running around this very elaborate maze for their OWN entertainment and of their own free wills, not for their slave master. Tango doesn't even want the berries, all he wants is for the hermits to have fun running the maze, which is like in DIRECT OPPOSITION to how slave owners treated their slaves so the comparison REALLY DOESN'T hold up. I'm gonna hazard a guess that you've never really looked into the history of slavery, cause if you did and had any sense of morality you'd know this isn't a joking matter. There are some things we just shouldn't joke about, and slavery is one of them.
@@LadyChrista1Slavery is one of those things that are way too serious to NOT joke about. We make jokes about serious issues, not to make fun of victims and others that expwriwnce evil and unfortune, but to deal with it, and make the world a bit brighter. As long as you're allways kicking upwards and not downwards (given that there's any kicking going on at all, witch it often isn't) you should be good. (I haven't read the comment you are refering to. I can't see it here. My point still stands: any subject can be joked about, as long as you take things as timing and your audience into consideration, and never kick the weak)
Being able to wax doors, trapdoors, fence gates, buttons and item frames so that they cant be right clicked would be so nice for these kinds of detailed minigames
i think there should be a trapped one just to blind you as you enter, put it outside of blast range, below the bottom end of the stairs. always blind when you enter.
People are bound to think it's counterproductive for Tango to remove berry bushes from Decked Out but actually it's a clever bit of psychological manipulation: by making berries seem more scarce, he's actually further motivating them to collect more of them, so counterintuitive as it may be he probably just doubled the rates of this farm!
Tango has truly brought his community together in such a big way. I can't watch Decked Out without a huge smile on my face. It's so fun and EVERYONE loves it, Tango himself notwithstanding. So much work, and such a payoff. Nothing but love.
I really hope he realizes that. In my book he is now at/near the top Minecraft person. With people like the father of technical Minecraft, the father of CTM map (vech, Super hostile series), CapitainSparckle with the music stuff, Guude for creating mindcrack, SkyDoesMinecraft, ...
I was thinking of a challenge for once level 4 opens. Its a sort of "Unnecessary Overachiever" reward. What happens is a player has to select Easy mode at the beginning, a button becomes available at the back of level 4 only if easy mode is selected. If a player manages to make jt all the way down to level 4 to the back, press it, and make it out, then they get a special prize. Perhaps a few extra frost embers, a custom trophy, or something else. After some thought, a cool prize might be a special key of sorts. So on a later run, the player takes that key into the dungeon and upon entering the frost ember shop, it unlocks every card to be available for purchase for that run. I feel it is balanced, because you still have to risk having it on you throughout the run and you have to gain enough embers still to purchase a card. This would just guarantee you would have the option of buying it. To give it even more balance or rarity, the player can only earn this key once and Tango would award it during the weekly phase results.
It would also give players additional reason to go back for those early game relics again for their collections! This is honestly a great suggestion :D
It would have to be more than a few extra frost embers to be worth it. You're not gonna get people running to the Burning Dark for 10 embers and a 6 ember artifact.
@@liamengram6326That's fair, looking at this again. I was just spitballing ideas, but perhaps a custom trophy similar to the "I Survived the Death Room" one would be more appropriate.
The blackstone pressure plates!! I'm so happy you added them. If the dungeon is still too hard, you could make calibrated sculk sensors pick up the pressure plates. This would ensure that wardens hear them at one point.
@@Bullwinkle39 If you leave them on permanently, you could hide the sensors with just a lectern, comparator and a calibrated sculk sensor inside of a wall, extending the reach slightly. Still better than what their effect is right now. If you' make them activate at max clank that would cause some potential issues when trying to connect all of the redstone.
Every video like this shows off just how insanely amazing this game is! You're a legend Tango. Your commitment to making this happen is unreal, as well as continually updating/upgrading to make it the best that it can be!
Perhaps aggronet can activate with each clank triggered from the time the door to level 3 opens. That way, it becomes a danger before max clank, but clank block is still useful (so aggronet interacts with the player’s deck). It would almost be like clank in Decked Out 1, where clank gradually increases the difficulty of the dungeon, rather than being a hard toggle where something only changes once it maxes.
The thing with the pressure plates is that 99% of them are dodge-able. You can usually go around the plates, making them more of a time penalty (more time spent weaving between plates) than a noise penalty.
The easier solution to the dungeon lackey issue with hermits with max evasion is to install a toggle for Lackey runs that increases the max number of evasion cards from 3 to 5.
I'll list some ideas for adding noise mechanisms to level 3: - tripwires - redstone ore with carpets above - Pufferfish proximity detectors setting off a noise (they don't care about perma sneak) using wool to insulate - Doors of some kind using buttons, levers, fence gates etc. - putting loot in chests so they have to be opened making noise - small parkour sections where the player has to run jump or climb - areas wheres the player has to drop down a few blocks causing ½ heart of dmg alerting the wardens. Also i think you should add one more warden like you said. You could for sure also try a test round with the aggro-net on the whole time. Maybe that should be the default? Or you could have aggro net partially activate with more clank. So more clank = more amethyst blocks = more signal relay idk I really wanna emphasize the pufferfish detectors though, they seem pretty good for this!
@@hrakss7605 It should work, and I guess the system would use a tripwire or observer on a string to detect when the fish inflates which then activates a noise near the player? But pufferfish detectors are bulky and the player has to be super close, like within 1.5 blocks of the fish to activate it so they would be incredibly difficult to hide I'd imagine. Unless the wardens use a different sound system than the rest of the sculk blocks (which would be really weird and I don't think is the case) you should be able to surround the detector in wool to dissolve the sound of the fish.
Tango, it would be so out of normal, but I think a Hermits DnD game would be cool with you as the dungeon master doing a 'Decked Out' Themed dungeon. Maybe it's a straight in and out, or maybe the party gets three attempts at the dungeon to get loot and get out, making it deeper each time to get the rogue-lite style. I think it would be an awesome stream to do. Etho the rogue, Gem the Barbarian, Cub the Wizard, etc.
@@theguyfromsaturn Joe isn't one of the hermits I follow actively, but from everything I've seen of him he is great! What class would you pitch him as?
Tango, you really need a Where's Willie T-shirt in the shop. Actually, you could have a T-Shirt series, with Willie hidden in different spots... and of course one of those has to be at the top of a water column.
11:39 - "The more you don't touch redstone, the more it breaks" "How? It just sits there!" Yeah... dust-rot. You'd think that not loading the chunks would solve the problem, but it actually just makes it worse...
It's so funny how many software engineering concepts are relevant to Decked Out. The guy's basically coding in Redstone, which must be one of the worst game engines out there
@@Ludix147 i dunno, the Redstone Engine is INCREDIBLY powerful, but also has one HELL of a learning curve, and Tongo doesnt even have access to some of its higher level functions here, lol
Wardens have a 100% drop chance of a catalyst. If you have a super low spot that they can eventually walk into and kill themselves (maybe with something with noise as a lure) you can detect the catalyst with a filter to activate a circuit to release a new one at the top floor. That way you constantly get them to auto-cycle and hp refresh. Just need to have a decent backlog of named ones ready. Not sure if it would be enough, but at least might make it easier to maintain 3 (or more) of them in there.
This migh seem counter intuitive but my suggestion for making the pressure plates work better is to have strips of carpet nearby. Here's my logic, the carpet strips basically provide players a temporary speed boost pad where they can sprint around level 3, but if they're nearby the pressure plates it'll also be high risk because one wrong move and you alert the wardens.
For a sore throat, try honey water and fresh lemon juice. Heat it up and it does wonders! It also clears the sinuses. Peppermint candies help too, or if you have peppermint oil, put a little dab on the sides of your head by your eyes (the temples) and rub them. Peppermint also help with headaches. Decked Out 2 is so awesome watching your videos and the other hermits play it. Stay frosty!
There seems to be a disconnect between the intention for max clank to be almost impossible to escape level 1, but also required for level 3 to be difficult.
Decked Out is such an awesome project that even being able to make the tiniest contribution by identifying the cause of the Nimble Looting bug is like the best feeling in the world. Love the Halloween additions 😁Also Gem is such a treasure
As expected i think the huge deck peeps have prioritised clank block a lot, but i do think a lot of them do suffer sometimes from it because they get screwed by hazard realllly often
Pressure plates on level 3 should sometimes be rigged to a series of noteblocks really making a racket in a certain order to lure the Warden to the player.
Tango, I don’t know what you have planned for the forge, but here are a few ideas: 1. To access the forge, players could use an extra key from the dungeon. Many people are taking keys out, and they feel useless because they could have been extra treasure drops. Maybe leave 3 and 4 keys lead to higher rewards then 2 or something 2. Maybe have an ember locker? Players could store embers there and get a locker key. They have to take the locker key in the dungeon next run and if they die, they loose the embers in the locker forever. Obviously it can’t be too op, so maybe 3/4 of the embers in the locker will disappear? Like if they put 40 embers in, then they get only 10 back. 3. Instead of adjusting the ember shop, the discounted cards could be in the forge. There could also be a card that gives more discounted options, like the eye on the prize card I love the game so much tango, really one of the greatest inventions in survival Minecraft❤❤❤
I think that if you concern about key droprate, it could be a card with something like "Key Searcher" where when played, it will have a seperate dropper (would be good that it's placed near some of treasure's dispenser) and have a 40% to drop a key when played. This card will only attempt to drop key once per card and only allow 1 of this card in the deck (or make it ethyrial permanent, drop 1 key after every 10 cards played)
Also I saw my two favorite worlds collide when you, imp and skizz were hanging out with Evan and Katelyn! I'm glad Evan's back was healed enough to make it to con and that Scar was able to be there.
I was never a big fan of MCC, could take it or leave it, but I have to admit that lately I'm becoming more and more addicted. Mostly because of Cub and Scar and Impulse. I'd love to see you try it, if only once like Etho. Love the Halloween decor!
@@sanautinno you got it right. Minecraft Championship! Grian has played a lot but I think he only plays event ones now if ur ever interested in his POV. There was this one time he killed dream and a few others in a row, it was crazy. Edit: It's in MCC9!
Selling milk to bring in the dungeon in the shop for 1 crown could be a good item to sell. You bring it in so if you get poisoned you can cure it. I'm excited to see you play phasmo again. Impulse and skiz have gotten very good at it
Level 4 needs a 1 by 1 1/2 block tall path wardens cant get into with pressure plates but they have fire paths around so you are forced to generate sound to pass forward.
Two points about the pressure plates in lvl 3. 1. You can jump over them easily without making sound: Unshift while standing still, jump, press forward, and shift before landing again. You can do a 1 block jump like this with ease and never generate noise. 2. The current layout makes players walk around them, perma sneak is still a thing, it just becomes more boring because you have to take longer to move from A to B. The occasional diagonal pressure plates do barely nothing to mitigate this. The main issue: The gameplay is ONLY not making noise, instead of avoiding area's with wardens, figuring out smart routes, having to think on your feet. Sneaking is still the answer to it all Solution: Make several area's of unavoidable pressure plates. So a fully filled 3x4 patch, that make you want to sprint, for if you don't you'll trigger multiple vibration events. As that sound is heard by any warden in 16 blocks, the aim becomes avoiding wardens general area. It's their aggro range, similar to how ravagers have one.
Level three might need an additional Warden but I don't think level 3 needs to be hard as much as it needs to be time-consuming and that time management is going to be what really sets people apart.
@@iceneko9170 true however you won't really be looking for anything so the trip out will probably be quicker but depending on hazards and whatnot it'll still sink a lot of time I assume by the time it comes out most of the Hermits will figure out the correct path that doesn't close and they'll just go that way so if he sets up enough Clank and stuff like that to get the wardens crowd maybe it won't be so easy but yeah I could see when level four opens like just it might be really easy to get in and out maybe I don't know I hadn't really dealt a lot with Wardens
For using agronet to increase the difficulty. You can also considder having parts be always active. So that sound is always echoed once, but at max clank have all these aggronet zones interconnect through the whole dungeon
Tango I think I speak for everyone here, All of us thank you for decked out Now we all get to enjoy all these videos Great work! I hope you are proud of your game Of course, take care of yourself
Pearl's run in lvl 3 reminds me of the old comedy skits in hallways, where the people chase each other in and out of the doors and halls and never find each other.
My prediction on level 4 hazard is that some corridors just freeze overtime making it harder and harder to get through until it's all ice and fully blocked
I think a good middle ground for level 3 difficulty improvement is to have aggro-net activate linearly with heartbeat speed/clank level, where instead of being an "all-or-nothing" trap, it can slowly get more and more dangerous as your clank level goes up. Have it start at the bottom floor of level 3 at lower levels of clank and slowly rise it up towards the top floor/entrance as clank rises, so the difficulty difference of each floor in level 3 would be more pronounced than it is currently (imo getting to the middle/bottom floors are still too easy once stair locations are known by the hermits). When a hermit gets a bottom floor level 3 artifact, they should be a lot more nervous about their overall clank level when they get there rather than when they're leaving back through levels 2&1. Regardless, I think aggro-net should definitely be active outside of max clank, as it's really looking like beefed up clank block decks are basically always circumventing any difficulty at all on level 3. This solution in particular adds a unique aspect to clank that I think will be fun for the hermits to strategize around too, whether it be choosing to block more clank or dodge pressure plates with speed/jump. I personally think an always-on aggro-net is just gonna be way too much/too polarizing, where hitting any pressure plates at all regardless of clank/hazard is an instant death sentence. I think even having 3 wardens along with this likely wouldn't be too much of a difficulty spike either as opposed to an always-on system with 3 wardens.
Hi Tango! Have any of the hermits entered the underwater part of the depth charge area yet or are they still unaware you can go in there, cuz maybe the depth charge sign can say “enter if you dare as a hint”
Something to consider with suit up is armor toughness. Higher armor toughness means that the player will be able to tank high damage hits easier, but low damage hits will still deal reasonable damage. The only options you get for armor toughness are Diamond and Netherite unfortunately, but if you wanted to tune it so low damage hits like vexes were still worth worrying about, but high damage hits like ravagers and willy could be tanked a bit better, you could reduce total armor points, but keep toughness equal or higher. For some rough numbers (assuming hard mode). Order is base damage -> current diamond -> 3/4 Netherite (missing the chestplate) Cave Spider: 3, 1.44, 1.64 Drowned Trident: 8, 4.37, 4.76 Vex: 13.5, 8.36, 8.74 Ravager: 18, 12.24, 12.41 And as percentage damage reduced: Cave Spider: 52%, 45.3% Drowned Trident: 45.4%, 40.5% Vex: 38%, 35% Ravager: 32%, 31% the total damage reduction for lower damage hits is less, but the damage reduction for higher damage hits are nearly identical to the armor currently being used. Netherite is kinda expensive tho, so I get if you don't wanna go with that one. Another option is low tier armor with protection, because protection applies a static damage reduction, regardless of what the damage of the hit would be, so it could be tuned to like 50% damage reduction, meaning cave spiders get a small boost, but ravager take a huge hit on their damage output to players, if that's the affect you're looking for. You could also do it the other way and make the total reduction 32% to stay consistent with what you have for ravagers, but increase the effective damage of other mobs. Just some food for thought
"I don't have a voice" Me too. We had con in Tennessee this weekend. Strep is going around. My friend had a kid with it and then came cause her rapid test was clear but she got the call back that the culture came up. We've been coughing for two days. I'm happy exhausted though. As a vendor it was an insane weekend.
About the aggronet thing at 2:20:00... that will be resolved when you open level 4. People will generate clank down there, and they will trigger aggronet and keep it looping.
maybe a way to address players having too much clank block could be to make stumble scale with the deepest level you've gone into the dungeon. so once they are on level 3, stumbles are giving more clank, and keep giving more clank.
After watching Pearl, you start to wonder if Level 3 will be hard enough even if aggro-net is constantly on AND the entire floor is pressure plates! What does a person have to do to get a Warden to chase a player? 😂
What if you tripped the players up a little by making some of the hazard doors such as in the split ice corridor block each other from activating? That way, it isn't always the same "always a way out" each run, but it never blocks the player off from exit.
For Level 3, you could potentially add a timer that starts as soon as they put in the key to open the door which after X amount of time the aggro-net will be activated. Another idea would be to hook it each sensor in the network to be a hazard alongside to the full clank trigger. This would add randomness for sure but will require way more redstone which might not solve the problem. Next would be trip wires which depending on how they are setup could be harder to avoid and easier to accidentally break by punching the string and making it a pain to fix.
