Day three of the Hostile Mob Museum, Michael Deering's April 2015 Minecraft Hardcore Challenge. The team's job is to catch hostile mobs and cage them at a base. Basket starts the day down in the caves at the stack of furnaces from the last episode.
Smelting in the caves
The furnaces are still burning, and Basket keeps feeding them. Iron ingots come out, a gold ingot too, and the crafting grid gets a few test runs with diamonds. Max_Writer passes through, and Scoti_Garbidis wanders by after the chat shows them earning Time to Strike! Sayulily earns Delicious Fish somewhere else.
The call is busy with something Basket can't see from here. "We have a zombie kid." "First catch of the night." Someone admits, "I used one of our name tags, that probably wasn't a good idea right now." None of it shows up on Basket's screen.
Iron armor at the base
Basket climbs a long ladder out of the ground and into the rain at the team's base, a cobblestone building with chests outside. PaisleyPlayfully, Scoti_Garbidis, Sayulily and Max_Writer are all there by their nameplates. Basket lays iron ingots into the crafting grid and comes out with a chestplate, leggings, a helmet and boots, then uses three diamonds for a diamond pickaxe. Down by the river, crops grow on a strip of farmland in the water. "We have crops?" "Yeah, they're by the river."
Down a staircase
The team splits up to check the next spawners. Basket heads out with Scoti_Garbidis over snowy hills as the light goes. "It's so beautiful up here. It's snowy." Then it gets dark. "Let's just dig into the wall and work our way down." Basket cuts a staircase deep into the stone, one step at a time.
Zombies at the spawner
The staircase breaks into a dungeon with a mossy floor, and the zombies are already there. Basket fights them with the stone sword next to the spawner and drops to about half health before the room is clear. Torches go on top of the spawner. The large chest holds bread, a music disc, and a name tag, which matters this month. "We only have four name tags." Basket eats rotten flesh and gets the Hunger effect for it.
Night in the hills
Basket and Scoti_Garbidis climb back out into rain and darkness on the hillside. A creeper comes close, and the chat shows Scoti_Garbidis earning Monster Hunter. "Makes this challenge really tough." They head across the stone toward the next spot as the sky lightens. "Oh, it's sunrise." Max_Writer types "Episode ending" in chat, and Basket finishes the day alive in iron armor.
Nobody has built the grave for pikerize yet, and no mob has gone into a cage on Basket's screen. The end credits follow, with no gameplay after them.
