The cage hanging in the air might be the wool. Getting to it means clearing the ground under it, then going straight up.

Standing in TNT

There's another blaze spawner somewhere, and ghast spawners, and something below them. Then TNT. One of them was standing in some, and then some more. High ground, high ground. He ends up in the wall and mostly safe, while the other digs a blaze spawner out of the iron.

The plan is to water underneath the cage and pillar up. Nearby chests help: one is full of iron, and he'll take it all. A quad spawner gets two of its spawners destroyed, but there are blazes in there too, so you can't just light it up. An enderman gets mad for no reason anybody can see. One of them has two stacks of ladders and two stacks of blocks, and also, it turns out, 16 ender pearls. They have had a few ladder plans before.

A house for the ghasts

One of them jumps into lava. A creeper that wasn't supposed to blow up does. The chat logs Scoti_Garbidis blown up by Creeper. One idea for the map maker: block updates on the lava, so turning it into obsidian makes it freak out.

When they start building, the ghast spawners way up top activate. So they build a little house. A ghast can huff and puff, but it won't blow their house down. They admit they're totally cheesing this level. renderXR put in a couple of anti-cheese things, and they think they're doing a really good job of mitigating those.

Don't player collision

One heads up the ladder while the other covers from below with a bow. Don't player collision, dude. Nothing funny has happened for about three minutes, and it's all about the ratings. A spawner near the top can't be identified, so they just take it out. Blazes hug the corners and will hit you through the edges on your way down. The Infinity bow is gone, lost somewhere, which leaves 48 arrows.

Good news, bad news

Basket gets to the chest. Good news, bad news. The bad news is it's not the wool. The good news is a Grand Treasure Chest with iron leggings that carry Protection III, Fire Protection III, Blast Protection III and Unbreaking III. The Dukes of Hazard pants.

So where would renderXR hide a wool? They haven't gone all the way around the edge yet, so that's next. There's a TNT spawner that blew itself up and left the sparkles behind. One of them doesn't have a helmet anymore, but he has levels, so he can make an anvil and really fix things up. Down to one heart with a zombie in the wall, he refuses to end the episode while still in combat. Whatever, you quitter. Then he's alive, and they end it.
