"This is the beginning of the end for Ragecraft 3." Team B.S. is back in the checkered hall below Aris, this time geared up for it. The counter opens at Scoti 146, Basket 120.
Better gear this time
Basket carries a soup for extra hearts and a second weapon called the Colossus, a Legendary Item with Sharpness IV. Its Tremor ability gives every strike a 50% chance to deal 6 damage to everything nearby, at the cost of 10% speed. One of them also has a backup sword with Sharpness III and Knockback II.
The plan comes from last episode's sign: break the spawners Aris uses to grow the army, and see if that brings Aris out. Hit a spawner, fall back, and don't let the mobs keep piling up.
The orb
Hanging over the middle of the hall is an orange orb in a claw, and it fires. Where its fireball lands, harming potions burst out. "So we can't get too close to the orb." Basket's lightning trap finally goes off, and so does the Colossus. "Whoa, what was that?" "That's apparently my tremor."
Then the potions catch Basket. "That's a lot of harming." Chat reads "BasketMC was killed by Potion using magic," and the counter goes to 121.
The gear stays where it fell for now, since going after it means standing in range of the orb.
Back for the stuff
The trip back doesn't go well. "Oh, I did not get the spawner." Mobs charge, there's lava, and chat reads "BasketMC burned to death." The counter goes to 122. "Next time when you die, bring some torches back with you." "I'm not going to die again. I'm done dying."
Up on the ledge
Up on the left there's a ledge with a face pattern, maybe in wool, and another spawner. They split up to cover both sides, and something comes at them. "Charged creepers. Invisible charged creepers." One of them takes the high ground and drops down with water to break two spawners, then runs back on fire. "I'm so dead right now." The run works. "I'm a winner." Whether it beat the slow way is another question. "It took longer."
Lots of guys
The last stretch is digging through walls and bridging out to spawners while archers shoot from below. "These guys are on fire naturally. They don't wither, though." One of them gets hit with blindness. The orb keeps firing too, and one of them can't work out how it spotted them. "There's no way it saw me."
Breaking one more pair of spawners pulls in a crowd. "Dude, they were literally like 30 or 40 guys." They back off and the mobs start shooting each other. "Yay, they're all dead, good job."
"That Aris guy, he's gonna get it, we promise. He's a bad dude, he took the black crystal."
Two deaths this episode, both Basket's. The counter ends at Scoti 146, Basket 122. The monument isn't shown, so the totals stay at 15 of 16 crystals and 11 of 12 emerald blocks.
