Ultimate Minecraft 1.20 Sniffer Guide - Eggs, Snifflet Torchflower & Pitcher Pod Farm 

I think it would make the most sense that both flowers would give it's own unique potion effect. It would suit the wild, unchartedness, and exotic vibe of the plants

Maybe torch flowers should glow in the dark, like redstone torches. That'd be magical

They should make the torchflowers more useful. Maybe they could scare creepers away and prevent them from spawning.

From a geological perspective, lush caves would be incredibly warm and moist, perfect for egg incubation. Moss also has an incredible insulator capacity as the air pockets prevent heat from dispersing through the whole material, whereas things like sand heat and cool very rapidly. I personally am getting over Mojang's need to focus on cosmetics without adding relevant mechanics. They'd rather add new items than correct things like the lack of dyeable objects in the game.

Eyecraft: Never hurt these cute animals under any conditions... Also Eyecraft: *Slaughters almost entire Sniffer herd*

Fun fact: You can feed a brown mooshroom a torch flower, then use a bowl on, it for a night vision effect (:

The torch flower can also be used to create a night vision suspicious stew if you pair it with a bowl a red mushroom and a brown mushroom

The pitcher plant should break into two pieces: the plant itself and the root. The root can be placed anywhere, and the plant can be placed back on it. The root can be cooked to get baked pitcher root, which gives 3.5 hunger bars

I really appreciate you. It's hard for me to watch a lot of these guides because the creators are practically yelling but you're very well spoken and so thorough. Thank you so much for doing these

Torch Flowers need to generate light. It's literally in the name. Would be nice to have more natural sources of light to decorate bases with. Pitcher Pods could be used for a new potion effect, or a preexisting effect. Perhaps a temporary source of one of the Beacon effects?

Idea for the Pitcher plant, you could fill it with a potion and depending on what it was, it would attract mobs, sort of like the actual pitcher plants do.

Hearing you being very audibly happy with the Sniffers is so endearing, I'm so glad these creatures are in the game now!

So this entire mob has no actual use other than giving you two types of flowers? Incredible.

I think torch flowers should be in an arrow recipe. Maybe they could be artificial flame arrows. And with pitcher pods, maybe a potion called “the cave master” that is similar to the tuetlemaster, but geared towards caving

The 80’s is calling for its Sniffer

I hope more ancient flowers are added in future updates because we need more flowers in minecraft.

The sniffer is actually the first ever mob vote mob that I supported that ended up in the game! (RIP copper golem, iceologer)

Considering the Sniffers have a chance of dropping moss and their backs look like they're covered in some sort of mossy plant, I wonder if Sniffer eggs hatch faster on moss because it simulates being with a parent Sniffer, or maybe Sniffers naturally hatch their eggs by carrying them on their backs? I don't know but I thought it was interesting :)

Your reaction to how cute Snifflets are was so adorable

Wish the Torch Flowers had like a very faint glow and the ability to render a certain area around them unable to spawn hostile mobs, that way we can make dark caves in survival decorative without having to worry about mobs

The Java Drowned animation isnt new, it existed in the past but got removed. It was recently brought back. Also want to add that Dolphins are of help in finding warm ocean ruins Torchflowers can additonally be made into sus stew, which gives Night Vision

"It is not worthwhile to hurt these mobs" he says whilst brutally hacking and stabbing all the defenceless sniffers to death 😂

They should make it where if you grow the ancient plants on moss or in jungles/lush caves, it has a certain percentage chance of dropping seeds maybe like 18%, because it's being grown in proper conditions for it's time

Only mojang would add a mob that has a 6.5% drop rate for the egg from a rare mob that takes a total of 30-40 minutes to mature and is only used to get a single drop every 8 minutes (50% chance for the one you want), which is then used to farm a crop item that doesn't drop seeds, forcing you to repeat that last few steps. All of this only gets you a flower... they need to stop adding what "seems cool" and start adding features that make any sort of sense. Who would figure any of that out intuitively? Why would anyone ever grind for these? It's so pointless.

So I just watched a 17min video to tell me the mob, the seeds, the plants, and all the crap that goes with it... are useless. Awesome.

If they named them torch flowers, they should make it so they give off light. That would be so cute. As for the pitcher pods, I think it would be cool if you could use them as an alternative water source for your crops since they look like they store water. Just place one of those flowers and they will keep the soil in surrounding crops moist just like a stream of water would.

The same way the top part of the pitcher plant always points the same way no matter which side you look at it from also happens with the lily of the valley, and it is even more noticeable

This video could've been 3 minutes long.

Torch flower better become a light source or a brew for breathing fire or something

They really need to rework the hunger system, the way it is now, all other food but golden carrots is obsolete. I'd love for there to be different uses for different kinds of food.

Torch flowers need to emit a small glow when they are full grown flowers. It would look so cool

Love your videos! I've recently restarted Minecraft, I haven't played since they added the hunger meter. Now it feels like a whole other game; there is so much more to do and I feel somewhat overwhelmed but your videos have helped me understand the new mechanics better. Thanks!

5:35 Eye being cheerful with the Sniffers for 23 seconds

Congrats on 400K subs, dude!!! Well deserved with all of your Minecraft tutorials!

Fantastic. I'm excited for this. My gardens are gonn be ballin'

Love how each time he finds an egg he never shows it being brushed out lol

On the latest 1.20 snapshot the sniffer don't drop moss blocks, that's good cause I don't imagine such q monster killing em just to get that

So many new items with this update. Revisiting older parts of my world to update them. Mixed feelings about the Cherry Blossoms, I’ve already been building pink trees for a while now with Pink Carpet as my fallen petals.

Thank you for this tutorial. I feel like I learned just about everything I needed to.

I love how this man explains, I can watch his videos for hours

Good video as always!

17:29 the same can be said for flowers too! lily of the valley is the most notorious one! it always droops to the left, no matter what angle you look at it.

Than you so much for this guide. It's easy to understand and you cover everything I needed to know about this.

"It isn't worthy killing these mobs" *proceeds to kill all of them*

So... go to a difficult place, twice, go to another difficult place if you want automation, then wait a long time, and then you get a decorative non-renewable crop... And we lost useful mobs for this?

I searched for this video after returning to minecraft after a few years break and finding 3 eggs in a few ocean ruins, good stuff!

Eyecraftmc, you will always help me when my brother wants to learn about mobs in Minecraft. Thank you much for posting these videos.

way too hard to get for it to just be decorative

Ngl seems like a huge effort for not much gain, maby if they found edible truffles that gave strength or short Xray vision would be good

Thanks for the guide😁

thank you for this vid! gonna find some sniffers for my multiplayer world :D

so..useless update? a mob that can sniff food for breed and the other seed is for decoration only

I've not seen the pitcher pod seeds yet. The plant is so beautiful and I honestly can't wait to start growing them in my game!

such a nice video! i needed that

I believe the part about the optical illusion is true for most flowers, the only one I don't think it works on is sunflowers because they always face the same way.

The fully grown pitcher pod ooks like the flowers in Avatar. Very beautiful.

The Sniffer is the biggest dropped ball in Minecraft, it does basically nothing and it's stupidly rare, the flowers it digs up serve no purpose other that aesthetics and there's only 2 of them, I get Mojang not wanting the Sniffer to be too important as they are hard to find but in that case why not just make them easier to find? Say what you will about Glow Squids, Allays and Armadillos but at least you don't need to go through a bunch of steps to get 2 decorative flowers, even if they don't add more Sniffer exclusive items then at least make the Sniffer dig up more things like carrots, potatoes, bones, flint, and other things you could imagine are buried.

Love your content dude ❤❤

That was very helpful thank you very much 👍

This comment is about the magic system in Minecraft and another potential use for the sniffer however I think that along with seeds they can also find something to get the player magical items/relics/potion ingredients.

For now its a good end game item to get once you are just trying to achieve as much as possible in a survival.

I started a new world (after a failed new world with the new update), and I found a nice jungle beside the ocean. I dived in, with a parrot I found who I named Repeat and we started our search. I found a small ruin not far from shore and I went under. I was frantically brushing to find suspicious sand as I ran out of air. I finally found some and began actually brushing. As the animation for the brush played I saw something poking out and realized it was the one thing I was hoping for: a sniffer egg. Drowned were starting to surround me as I grabbed the fully uncovered egg and frantically swam to the surface as I was starting to drown. I made it and Repeat and I raced back to shore with our new discovery. Now I’m here trying to find out more about the Sniffer. Thank you for this helpful video!! Edit: After seeing I need two eggs to start, I went back and found another piece of suspicious sand at the same ruin. It was another egg. I’m not sure if that’s super rare or something but I’m glad I don’t have to dive and risk my life for these chonky bois anymore, although it is worth it

Idk if this is only on bedrock version, but I notice that if you turn the tick speed up, it makes the egg hatch faster, but the snifflet still takes the full 20 minutes to grow into an adult. Neat :)

Go through all of the work to get a useless flower

I wish there was more seeds depends on different types of grass such as the warped grass and so much more

A couple things about farming the seeds from sniffers If you connect a sculk sensor to a noteblock and put some hoppers around it, you can collect the items in a chest. The note block will play because of the constant sound around it and the allays will drop the items into the hoppers around the note block and you can meanwhile go about doing whatever Having more sniffers doesnt necessarily mean a more efficient farm. Sniffers store the last 20 blocks they sniffed in memory and wont sniff them again, so having too many can restrict their movement. From what I've found, one sniffer for every 30 blocks seems a optimum number

I love the idea of harder to obtain stuff makes minecraft more challegong but i would really like to see them add more crops with the sniffer

Thank you for the great info on our awaited update! Hubby and I play Minecraft with our 4 yo and she CAN'T WAIT to see these new items! We've been watching your channel for updates! Great video👍

They should be edible and give you 2 unique abilities. Torch flower: run and jump boost at the same time Pitcher: makes food give extra satiation. Also you eat a pitcher salad before food and it has Max satiation

Sweet guide. Thx!

super helpful video!

me realizing that you could make a torchflower farm with these sniffers: Aw yeah! infinite orange dye farm time baby!

Whould be cool if the 2 plants could make Dye that glows. Like Glow squid ink sacs. So Orange Glow dye and Cyan Glow Dye

So many wonderful ideas coming from the community. It’s a shame they won’t be added by the developers

Great use of the Allay! Never thought they work so well with Sniffers!

I hope we get a 3rd plant or mayby even a 4th plant. I love these 2 plants allready but i want moar!

The torchflower, Etlingera elatior, an actual tropical plant, that, as far as I'm aware, doesn't glow.

I understand that Minecraft is sandbox game but I like when new updates bring some new gameplay features, not just decorative. .

That mechanics is amazing! ❤

I wish they added some brewing recipes or potion recipes with these new plants.

Maybe the torch flower could be give players a splunker potion so we can have like x raying but with a potion. I say this because a torch helps light our view so in a potion effect it could light up ores through walls so we can see them.

The more I see the Sniffler, the more I grieve the Copper Golem. :/

Cool thank you for the information

I really hope they add more beautiful plants for the sniffer!!

I really think the Hide n Seek creature would have been much better. I like new items and objects. It’s just a shame that they don’t do much. Now I know there is potential for the future. I’m personally sick of getting new items that do nothing.

They really asked for this over the Golem.

Congratulations on 400,000 subs!

😊 NGL. I think this is the 1st time I've heard you sound Truly Excited, even PASSIONATE, about your chosen topic! It was sooo nice to hear you speak what sounded more naturally. I swear I could actually hear you **Smiling** when talking about the adorable Sniflet legs moving fast! ❤ Oh yeah, & Thanks for another great deep dive video! 🙂

Yeah, might as well just play modded cuz wtf is this mob

so the whole sniffer thing is just useless unless you want some beautiful plants... how disappointing

I love your videos! Much love

Keep going you're really near 400K subs

That’s a lot of effort to get a mob that only gives you orange and cyan dye

The sniffers don’t drop the moss anymore. That was changed in Snapshot 23w13a.

ty so much for the Guide

Thanks for this video, now I can make so much Orange & Cyan Dye without having to combine 2 types of dyes

Sure would be nice if Mojang would focus on new blocks and furniture options rather than useless mobs.

Take shot everytime he says sniff

You forgot that bees can make crops grow quicker if they get pollen from a flower and fly over a crop(so when planting torchflowers or pitcher plants, it would be a good idea to have some bees and some other flowers for the bees to go to)

All I have to say is thank you I can now see this update 💖 { bad at exploring for new things as in takes me a 2 - 6 months }
