I'm new to Minecraft. What's the best way to find diamonds? The tutorials on YouTube don't help at all
Dig dig dig! And that for several hours. At height 11.
There's no other way
Yes. Cheating. / gamemode creative, then you have all the items.
OK, so in my experience X-Ray…
It's fun 🤣 so I usually dig myself straight down, but not on one block but 2, so that you stand on one while you dismantle the other. When you are at level 11, build a small room from which you dig straight in each direction (2 blocks high). From these corridors you always dig into the wall on the upper block (as far as you can if you stay in the tunnel). I always do it with 3 blocks between the tunnels, most say 2 is more effective. Using this tactic, I found most of the slides, but a lot of youtube videos explain good tactics as well.
Thank you how many did you find in 2 hours?
By the way, diamonds are still very rare, without X-Ray it will be very difficult to find them with any tactic.
So in 2 hours I don't know, I never mine that long, but I found far more slides with it than with any other technique
So are 0 diamonds normal in 1.5 hours?
Well, of course that could be due to the technology, but most likely it was very unlucky. At what level was that?
I accidentally put the answer to this question on the other 😅
I do not know
What device are you playing on?
Computer
OK so you play the Java Edition? (Mac, Linux, and with Windows, Java but Bedrock also works
Certainly
OK, then you can show a lot of information with F3, on the left at XYZ there are 3 numbers (the coordinates), the middle one is the height (don't get confused because there are many point numbers)
Thanks, I'll try your tips
Well, I'm glad I could help you, but are you using a mac? Because it could be that F3 does something different.
No Windows computer
OK then I would be happy if you let me know if you have found a lot of diamonds 😇
Finding diamonds is not difficult. You just have to go into a cave and go up to about level 10. In a mine at level 5 you can even find a diamond per second.
There are different possibilities. Personally, I usually go to level 11 and first build a room with ovens, workbenches and maybe a bit of food. Usually also a warehouse. Then I build myself a 3 blocks long corridor and then I build small corridors on the side walls that are only 10 blocks or so long. Then I leave two blocks free and then the next tunnel comes. So you don't overlook anything and farm effectively. But I would definitely take a good pickaxe with at least luck and repair to farm diamonds.
