Definitely have feather4.... I died from fall damage into lava... with pyro+....

 

No... Never

 

This thread convinced me to get the nether and I don't regret it at all. I'm rolling in quartz! I like to go into the nether when there are less people online. I haven't seen a single person in the nether yet and I found an unlooted fortress!

 

I can't find much quartz, but then again I'm so paranoid someone is going to kill me that I'm constantly looking around. Whenever I see something move, I type /spawn as fast as I can, only to realize it was a zombie pigman. I did once see someone, and although he was around 100 blocks below me, I panicked and went to spawn.

 

I got nether access and I go in with iron armour and a fort 3 pic and iron sword. I haven't seen an enemy player or many mobs whatsoever. You just have to be carefull about falling and lava and your good!

 

I'm going to have to say, that if I could have 3 donator perks, it would be /back, tombstone, and pyro+

 

I've been hitting the Nether with nothing but iron armor and about 5 iron pick axes and doing just fine. It is all about your willingness to Let go and have fun. See ya in the Nether.

 

It helps a lot to have multihome. Then, you can go into the nether with only a diamond pickaxe and try to get away from spawn without being bothered. Once you're away a bit, set a home and come back with armor and a better pick.

 

That is a really great suggestion!

 

Well, You need like pryo+ god mode, (Op portiv or star gear<give to me for free) But then in the end not worth the money and we got some lag killers, spawn killers and the fly droper kills

 

I just like go in there with a maxand here comes some op moron and kill you when you just wanna mine

 

This is a very interesting thread atm but i do feel that pvp in the nether is at an all time low....

 

Thanks for the info. I'll defiantly get 20 000 some day to go there. Oh and also ... I'm a risk taker, I'll have nothing on me but a pic! :p Thanks again! :D

 

I think nether is great - my stats so far (Access since a bit, actively mining there since 48 hours. ^.^):
Over 8 stacks of nether quartz ore -> 17 stacks of quartz.
One kill, awesome pick aquired. :)
Zero deaths.

Helpful equipment:
Diamond armour
Feather falling 4 boots
Fire protection 4 chestplate
Eff5 ST D-Pick.

-314 a.k.a. Pi-

 

LOL dat will definately happen. :p

 

So does mining for an hour in the nether make more than mining for an hour in the mining world?

I just applied for Survivor! :D

 

As I am playing ecc more, I have gone mining less? I choose to buy materials. At one point, as a resident I went into the nether with nothing more than food and my max dpick. Then again I was accompanied by zorracraft... Who was in pro 4 armor.. with shp 5 sword... and an eff 7... and he has fly and pyro+...:/ But a small list of things that are the BARE MINIMUM to survive in the nether.
~A fortune Pickaxe (Optional)
~2-3 iron pickaxes (If no fortune pick)
~I like to use multihome
~An Iron chestplate is usually enough armor
~A stack of dirt/cobblestone for non-fly users!

That's really all you need to have a sucessful mine in the nether

 

I bought it. And never go in... I dunno why :p

 

I would love to see someone do a comparison.

 

You can find magma cubes in the nether :)
