Wake Up!: Ragecraft 2 Episode 119

  • Published on

The deaths sidebar opens at Scoti_Garbidis 133 and BasketMC 99. Team B.S. is still stuck in the nightmare copy of its base, and the episode starts at a run. "Make a break for it." This is the episode where dying stops being something to avoid and becomes part of the plan.

The first death

It takes about a minute. "Scoti_Garbidis walked into fire whilst fighting Zombie Pigman," and the sidebar ticks to 134. Dying does not send anyone home. "I'm in the room with the beds in the hell world. The dying is not a way out, is there?" The respawn comes with a starter kit: "They gave us one set of armor each and some bread and some bricks." There's also a Crimson Cutlass, which later shows up in Basket's hotbar.

The gear left behind is another problem. "Oh, this guy's got diamond armor on!" "I think they're wearing some of my stuff." In the scramble one of them reports, "Oh, I think I got my brown wool back."

One hundred

Things go sideways fast. "That guy was a zombie, so now all the pigmen are angry at me." Then: "Oh, I'm gonna die too." Basket falls from a high place, and the sidebar reads BasketMC 100.

Basket respawns next to a chest of starter gear: enchanted swords, bread, a set of enchanted armor, bricks, torches and pickaxes.

A Brute gets Basket next, then a swim in lava. With the counter past 100, a new idea comes up: "So now that I've finally broken a hundred deaths, I'm gonna see if it's a matter of just dying a couple times." The reply: "Whatever, knock yourself out. Literally." A chest goes down to hold what they've recovered, and Basket's inventory screen shows an Absorption effect after a respawn. That buff becomes the rule: "Make sure you have the absorption buff before you run in."

A safe room

The respawn room turns into a base. "So when we die we can come here." There are only two bows to share, "so we have to use those sparingly." Basket burns to death fighting a Blaze, and a little later the deaths come in pairs. "I found a thing. I'm dead." Basket is blown up by a Rage Creeper, and Scoti dies to a zombie pigman right after. The find: "Right side after the bridge, there's a... that's where we have to go."

Iron bars

The next push finds it. "There's iron bars down there." "Oh, that's a good sign." Both of them die on that run, Scoti burning up while fighting a Brute and Basket slain by one. The next plan is a speed potion and a charge: "I also have a fire resistance potion that we're gonna use." Scoti falls to a zombie pigman one more time, and then the answer comes back: "It's the way out. And it's safe."

They ferry their things out, with a list of priorities: "The emerald, of course, and the adminium. And any diamond gear." One worry stays on top: "I just don't want to lose this brown wool."

Brown wool

Back in the real monument hall, Basket holds the Brown Wool and sets it in its slot. Chat confirms it: "Scoti_Garbidis and BasketMC Brown Wool has been placed. Area defeated: Mushroomania." "Three wools left, man."

The credits roll and nothing plays after them. The sidebar closes at Scoti_Garbidis 137 and BasketMC 105. This episode: Scoti 4 deaths, Basket 6. The Brown Wool is placed. No emerald block or upgrade block is placed.
