Desolate Blast Foundry Part 3: Uncharted Territory 3 Episode 13

  • Published on

This is a short one, about 17 minutes, and most of it is spent pushing a little deeper into the foundry and getting pushed back. The death counter starts at Basket 27, Scoti 18 and ends at 28 and 18. The one death belongs to an Enderman that is angry for most of the episode.

Running back without armor

It opens with a creeper and someone asking "did I kill you?" Scoti is on the way back to Basket and admits to coming without any armor. "I'm a complete putz." The armor wasn't left by the spawn point, so that's the long walk.

Skeletons are the problem. Both of them have a plan, and only one gets used. "I have one too and I'm using it." Blocks go up to close off the side the arrows come from. "The good news is they shouldn't be able to shoot me over this." They find a couple of pickaxes, and decide that next time they should bring a stack of wood to keep in a chest for crafting.

Two chests to carry home

Past the wall there are furnaces, a creeper spawner they want to leave deactivated, and a chest. On a count of three they open it. "Oh, wow. That's good stuff. We got to take that all the way back, man." A second chest gets emptied too: "All the magic books, the jewel, everything." There's TNT, and they keep it on purpose, since dropping it from above could take out a bridge. They grab levers and a redstone torch to set it off.

Then the gear gets sorted at the chests. There are Protection II leggings and something with Thorns that one of them won't wear: "I might mess you up if I do that." Chain boots go on, a helmet does not. "Probably not my best plan."

Blazes

They head back in over some new stone steps, which someone is proud of. Then: "Oh my God, Blaze! Blaze, dude!" There's a blaze spawner, and they agree to keep it. A zombie spawner gets broken. They spot a minecart they won't touch, guessing it would set off a chain reaction, and a couple of beds under the main pillar that probably blow up. "The only way we can find out is by going totally naked and checking it out."

One of them gets a blaze rod. That means potions someday, though they have no bottles yet. One of them drops to three hearts in a fight near a hole in the floor, and they hold up against a wall to heal and eat.

The angry Enderman

There's an Enderman around, and somebody looked at it. "I can't believe we still have an angry Enderman." It hangs around near the lava, and a little after 13 minutes the chat reads "BasketMC was slain by Enderman."

Basket respawns at the bed, and the run back for the dropped gear is a scramble. Gear gets dumped in a chest so somebody can go in light, somebody spots a gold chestplate and "a ton of really nasty stuff" over there, and someone catches fire. "I thought you killed him for me." "No, I didn't want to get rid of that challenge that you were so much looking forward to." The Enderman is still alive.

They back up to a safe spot, eat some potatoes, and decide that's an episode.
