Zombie Baby Pigman on a Spider: Ragecraft 2 Episode 130

  • Published on

The deaths sidebar opens at Scoti_Garbidis 150 and BasketMC 113. The episode starts mid-fight, deep in a nether brick building in the Netherhorde fortress, before anyone has said hello. "Do we officially start the episode?" Then the title card: "Episode 130, Zombie Baby Pigman on a Spider." "Welcome back everyone. Well, we didn't say welcome back, but we did the best we could."

A chest for the junk

The first stop is a chest. Basket's screen shows a diamond sword and diamond boots inside, and one of them lists "an efficiency four book and a blast protection book." Their inventories are full of odds and ends by now, so the idea is to set up a chest of their own "instead of carrying around all this junk."

That chest fills up fast: a diamond sword and shovel, diamond boots, leggings and helmet, two enchanted books, an emerald, a golden apple and a potion. The Decapitator from the last episode is still in Basket's inventory.

The title, explained

"Should we do the other tower now, you think?" "Yeah." Getting there is the hard part. One of them opens up a ceiling and reports that a couple of mobs "fell in," and someone notices a lava bucket in their inventory with no idea where it came from. "Wow, these guys don't joke around."

Then comes the line that names the episode. "Zombie baby pig man on a spider." "Oh, that's not good." "The spiders, they're riding." A warning about a charged creeper follows, then a lot of "Run!", and Basket's screen fills with lava and fire. Later they piece it together: "The charge creeper blew up the platform." "You were almost gonna be very mad at me."

A bucket of their own

Once things calm down, one of them admits, "I'm so jealous of your lava bucket." "Would you like one?" "I have a stack of iron." A crafting table goes down, made "with the wood I brought," and Basket's screen turns three iron ingots into a bucket. Down below, "things are burning up."

Back the way they came

The terrain has "lots of spots for these guys to hide," so they dig. One of them makes a little staircase, the other tries to fill the gaps "so no freaking pig men riding poison spiders creep up on our bums." They tunnel below the floor, spot glass "forward and to the left," and agree that the spider riders probably mean they're close. "That sounds like an escalation of the bad guys, so I think it's probably that way."

So the plan is to go back to the room "where it blowed up." More stairs, a bridge one of them built earlier ("this is how I got over to you"), and a look down from up high. "Way down here is where we need to go."

A few seconds of gameplay play after the credits, and nobody dies in them.
