BasketMC

Creeper Tower: Ragecraft 2 Episode 4

  • Published on

Team B.S. picks up right where the last episode left them: dead, with their gear left behind where the Gravediggers and creepers caught them. The deaths sidebar reads 4 for Basket and 4 for Scoti as they leave the start hall with empty hotbars. "Don't try to run and jump, okay, because you'll use up all your stuff before we get there."

The run back

Their dropped gear is probably gone too, since "it was a creeper that went off right afterwards." It goes wrong fast. Chat reads "BasketMC was shot by Skeleton" about a minute and a half in, and soon after, "Scoti_Garbidis was blown up by Creeper." "Skeleton, right from the start. Thanks, jerk."

Basket's hotbar on the next try holds little more than a ladder and 15 Potions of Pestilence. One of them takes on a skeleton bare-handed. "I'm gonna beat him to death with my fist." A little later: "I can't believe I just beat that guy. I have a sword now."

Punching the spawner

The tower has a creeper spawner higher up, "so they drop down," and the ground around it is crawling. "I'm being surrounded by gravediggers." Chat reads "Scoti_Garbidis was slain by Gravedigger." Inside it's "creepers, lots of creepers," and with no pickaxe one of them punches through the spawner by hand. "It takes a long time to punch a creeper spawner."

It's a race against health. One of them is down to half a heart, and then Basket's screen goes red.

"The good news is the spawner in the bottom of the tower is now destroyed." "But so is everything else." Seconds later chat reads "Scoti_Garbidis was slain by Zombie."

Something they can't undo

The next run back comes with a warning. "We have to make it this time because I did something that we can't undo." What it was, one of them won't say: "You don't want to know."

A chest by the tower holds an iron sword and gold leggings, and one of them puts the leggings on. There's a ladder to the roof and exactly one torch between them. They also find emeralds, and leave two of them in a chest on purpose to pick up later, "because if we keep on losing them, we'll never get our emeralds."

Starting over with a few logs

"We got nothing, man." The plan is to cut wood from the trees nearby and make tools. They pillar up out of reach of the skeletons, put down a new crafting table, and hand out a wooden sword, an axe and a pickaxe. Chat shows Scoti earning "Time to Strike!" and then "Time to Mine!"

Without coal there are no torches, so they head down through the cobwebs, cutting with a wooden sword. "Don't use up all your sword, man." One of them loses a sword anyway, then kills a creeper. Scoti earns "Monster Hunter," and they find coal ore at last.

Filled with rage

One of them is hungry and not healing, and the food comes down to one potato they'd rather keep. "Man, Ragecraft. So angry right now, literally filled with rage." Right at the end, chat reads "Scoti_Garbidis was shot by Skeleton." "Get all my things. Save everything." "I got most of your stuff, at least."

That's six deaths this episode. The sidebar ends with Scoti at 8 and Basket at 6. The monument isn't shown, so no wools or emerald blocks are placed on screen.
