Great tip: if u press F3 and look at the section in the left top part of the screen if the c-counter says around 50 or more while looking straight down there is most likely a huge cave under you

I think 1.20.2 actually made diamonds spawn more often than in previous versions, i dont know the reason but i think the most likely reason is to make it easier to get duplicates of armor trims. That's just my thought tho.

That's why I made my tunnel bore at level -53. I am free from removing lava all the time.

if you make a tunnel bore though, you will have to make sure you dont have any Grians or Scars on your server. lol

That sweet editing syncing up the music when he breaks the diamonds 2:35
I appreciate that 🏆🏆🏆

Did someone notice "Minecaft" in the title? (it's fixed now)

Best method to find diamonds, Mine in caves! And if you have access to water breathing potions, take at least 1 or 2 with you depending on if you have shulker boxes yet or not, and op armor. As soon as you find an underwater cave in diamond level, it may be your lucky day! Like he says in the video, you can find a lot more diamonds if the cave your exploring is submerged. Plus I would also like to add, once again if you have that gear then MINE AS MANY ORES AS POSSIBLE while your down there, because there could be diamonds literally behind the other ores and you just didn't know! Btw, amazing vid shulkercraft, I'm pretty certain a lot of people will find this entertaining and useful for thier diamond hunts, I really like how each method is ranked and listed. That really helps you be aware of all the ways you can get diamonds. And whoever else read this commentall the way through. Thank you so much! :)

In one (1) hour I got 27 diamonds with out any redstone or strip mining, that is not bad in my opinion!!

I love how he puts the music and the editing so well together when mining diamonds

Here's a tip for everyone who are still on 1.20.1 because you're waiting for OptiFine to update to 1.20.2: once it's out, make a backup of your world, then load it in MCA Selector and delete a bunch of chunks you haven't done anything in, or even chunks you've only been in for a certain amount of time (like 1 minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes etc.). This way, you won't have to travel a long way to get the new diamond rates.

It doesn't seem like you can delete subchunks though, so you can't just delete everything below y=0, but you can change the view so you can see what's below a specified y level. This is helpful for finding places where you've mined, so if there are a couple of chunks that you have spent a lot of time in but you don't see anything of note on the surface, those might be chunks you've spent a lot of time underground in. But usually when you go mining or strip mining, you make your way through chunks pretty rapidly, so if there are chunks around your spawn or base that you haven't spent a lot of time in, but you don't want to get rid of them because you might want to use the tunnels you've made while mining, be sure to double check the y level both in MCA Selector and in the game.

There's a short and good video by Eyecraftmc that explains how to use the program if you search for "How to Easily Reset / Trim Chunks for New Terrain in Minecraft 1.20", but I also recommend watching Endavar's video, as he goes into detail about optimizing the deletion using filters.

Brushing is infinitely better in this patch compared to the last one :)

What a coincidence I was about to search how to find the diamonds beneath 1.20.12 but I saw your vid and I like it 👍

[dmswccrn]

Because the diamonds were illuminated inside the huge caves. That number was not technically accurate.
Using a night vision potion would obviously help, but if someone was playing who did not have a night vision potion, and were using torches, this number would be about 1/3 of what you found.

[midslam]

Sounds to me like the best method is to strip until you hit a cave, then spelunk.
The difference I've found is that while diamonds are more widely found, the veins are usually only 1 or 2 now. Well played MC.
Great video guys as usual.

[NectereYT]

I feel like everyone always ignores the ocean, the shipwrecks and their maps can get you geared up in minutes.
Anyway, great video, but I am curious - by the time you have an elytra why would you need more diamonds?

[ratioed]

Cave exploring has the highest potential, but with it being so rng dependent you're better off strip mining.

[PCTutorialz]

You can also, instead of looting end cities, loot ancient cities because you can mine up the sculk with a mending hoe which is easy to find in the chests there and uncover many diamonds while mending your stuff. I got like 250 diamonds from two ancient cities, but I could have gotten more if I spent more time mining.

Strip mining techniques my first diamond in pure survival hardcore im fully diamond armor rightnow in my world 😭 using trap doors to mining in y58

[tech-hifi.]

Truly gives us God tutorial and god tips and tricks these guys can go to any limits for farms.

What about sculk mining(not exposed blocks have a higher chance of being diamond ore so removing the sculk layer is the best caving method
