Beginner runner here looking for more information on the 1.16.1 run. Once you get into the nether, you're hoping for a good fortress/bastion spawn near you. At what point do you call a reset when you just can't find anything in the nether? My biggest hurdle at the moment is getting past the nether to the stronghold and it comes down to Nether decision making i feel like.
Other questions include:
- What biomes are we looking for that could generate a fortress/nether and which ones don't?
- What is the decision making required to find the next area of interest after you found your bastion or fortress?
- What are some ways to traverse around really difficult and vertical areas of the nether?
I can re-word any questions if they're too vague. Thanks!
Hey guys, brand new runner to the game here, and sorry for the possibly dumb question. I had a question about what metric I should be using to count my squares when it comes to blind/educated travel in the Nether to get to the stronghold.
Some of the guides say that you should be x amount of blocks from your initial nether portal if you are using blind/educated travel in the nether. What metric on your stat screen are you tracking to determine that you're the right distance away from your nether portal? I've been using the block metric, but I want to find out if that's the accurate one to use. Lmk if I need to clarify this question any more if its worded confusingly. Thanks!
