1.9 And You

Just some quick links and information to help you out.

http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Enchanting

http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Brewing (you do not need a cauldron, just make an infinite water source and use that)

These two things have been huge so far for us in game. Placing bookshelves around the enchantment table will increase it's potency (the level of XP you can put into the enchant increases) and a chance for multiple enchants on an item. If you put an item in the book and it's too low or too high of how much points you want to spend, pick it up and place it back in and the enchants shuffle. The enchanting is all random. Use at your own risk (although there is no bad enchantment, just some goofy ones)

Brewing. We have extra Nether Wart from harvesting them at a Nether Stronghold and making a farm in the nether. They only grow in the nether and do not grow adjacent, so we staggered them in a checkerboard pattern. They also only grow when you are in the nether. So to get you started let me know, and we can work out logistics of either you coming to pick them up, or me leaving them at spawn (then ill suicide and spawn in my bed :P ) We also have a place to farm blaze rods in the nether (I find they only spawn in nether dungeons either in the open or they can be found in every stronghold. We located one and currently farm it for the rods, don't destroy them!) so if you need a few for the powder we can work that out too. They are also necessary for the construction of a brewing station, but we have some of them laying around.

If you want to donate any lumber for these goods I won't turn it down :P Otherwise just let me know if you need a kick start.



Those of you eVa'ers we have a underground base with all amenities and goodies, as well as enough potions and ingredients to last a life time. Get in game and come on down, we will be making individual rooms for people.

Wow the "Silk Touch" enchantment seems like it could really come in handy. "Allows the collection of normally unobtainable blocks such as...Monster Spawners..."

Collecting them from every dungeon and placing them into a mob farmer could really help boost production I'd think.

I never thought of that... Good idea there Flash.

We were discussing that last night, and how helpful it would be to be able to shift a blaze spawner over to a convenient spot. Testing would have to be done on a less valuable one first, though - gotta make sure they don't just cough up pigs when set by a player, like in the past :-)

Although that could be very useful now with the new passive mob spawning information.

From what I've been reading, monster spawners mined up with silk touch become pig spawners.

I've found 2 or 3 dungeons so far but I have left them pretty much intact, does anyone want the spawners out of them? I dont have silk touch (or anything) but your welcome to come and get them.

The mob spawners might be fixed when it comes out of beta. /crosses fingers

I'm a pretty big fan of how the spawners are now. But I also wouldn't mind shoving 2-3 spawners in a room for faster exp.

If anyone still needs help with supplies or brewing / enchanting lessons hop on Minecraft or hit me up on Steam.

We have recently installed several XP farms by eVa which are open to the public, as well as one that is currently installed by TVB. The general courtesy rules apply, if someone else is using it please move on to the next one. The locations are printed on the wall at the eVa hub in the nether, and instructions for using them + brewing potions are on the walls in all rooms.

If you come across double dungeons within 20M of each other (and are not spider dungeons) keep them in tact and let me know the coords and I will be happy to install an XP farmer for you.

We will be adding more as they become available.
