Fastest way to find diamonds + Get enchantments you want!

[Zebzy]

Find Diamonds, The end Stronghold, and Mineshafts!
1: Create a new world with the exact same seed as your main.
2: Load that world up in Creative mode (Make sure its the one you just created!)
3: Now that you're in creative mode, you have all the items you need, now start looking for diamonds!

when you find diamonds, pull out a map, get the coordinates and write them down on a piece of paper. you can also get eye of ender and look for the end portal!

Get the enchantment(s) You Want!
Okay, first off, you can get up to 3 enchantments, so don't be stupid and keep a tool with only 1 enchantment on it.

The pickaxe i had on my first try:
Unbreaking II
Fortune I
Silk Touch IV

I didn't like this because fortune and silk touch are together, so that makes fortune useless for picking diamonds..

my second try:
Efficency IV
Fortune IV
Unbreaking III

This is awesome because it lasts longer, you can get alot of diamonds off of ore, and you can break ANYTHING as if you were in creative!


1: make sure your at a level you are able to enchant at (Level 31 is the best!)

2: make sure you have an enchantment table and the required number of bookshelves for best results

3: when you are Ready to enchant, SAVE THE GAME!

4: after saving, Enchant the item you like, if you Do NOT like the enchantment, or think you can get more out of it, Exit WITHOUT saving, and reload the world. Repeat that until you get what you want!

I know some of you may already know about this, and some not. but please no comments like "Its obvious", "You'd be stupid not to do that" "Everyone already knows this"
im just trying to help. thanks.

Please don't post in black. Nobody else can read the post when it is the same color as the backdrop. I went ahead and changed it to normal for you, but for future reference don't do it again.

As for the tutorial itself. This is a great hint tutorial for people who have just picked up the game and are still new to it, as it's really useful information in general. Also, a lot of us old fogies have a hard time getting figuring something out and tend to bypass little tricks like this, so it helps to have threads like these as reminders to everybody else.

Good tut.
