Minecraft Hardcore 404 Challenge | Diamonds and Defense Upgrades | Ep. 3

Minecraft 404 Challenge but in hardcore mode.

The Rules:
1. Gather any supplies you would like, but come nightfall you must enter the cave/sinkhole.

2. You may not enter other caves while gathering supplies before nightfall unless they are sunlit caves. Using torches as light even before entering the cave/sinkhole is not allowed.

3. Once you enter the cave/sinkhole, you must descend to the bottom. If you continue to mine and gamble, you might break ground and see sunlight. If you break surface and expose sunlight, the challenge is over.

4. No torch use for light is allowed. (Redstone torches, jack-o-lanterns, and flint n' steel are acceptable.)

5. Survive and thrive. You may not sit around and do nothing, you must stay active.

6. Only mine ores that are is visible. If you see an ore, you can mine it and the blocks around it to see if you got all of it. No branch/strip mining allowed.

7. Difficulty must be HARD. This is a challenge. Think about it.

8. 1 life. If you die the challenge is over. Start a new 404 world if you want to try again.

9. No inventory edits or 'cheating' of any kind. Using F3 to see mob locations is considered cheating as well.

10. You may NOT craft a compass or a map.

11. If you find a mob spawner, you may not use it to make an item farm. You must destroy the spawner block as soon as possible.


12. Mob farms or grinders of any type are not allowed to be constructed. Make-shift traps are acceptable, but nothing that counts as a (mob-farm/mob-grinder) is.

13. You may set up multiple shelters/camps. Each shelter/camp must be 20 blocks or more away from any other shelter/camp. Only one chest, (double chests are allowed) is allowed at each camp.

14. Farms of any type are acceptable, (not counting mob-farms/grinders), but each farm may not be more than 10 x 10 x 10 blocks big.

I did remove some rules.
