Nether Diamonds

[Capysora]

What level do you find find nether diamonds?

[Adlersch]

Usually at the point where you're deep, deep under a lava lake.

[Windoom]

25 and below. Way more common then normal diamonds. You can easily farm them.

lil' tip, get a fire amulet thing and a nanosuit to survive the explodn' ores and the lava falling down with a higher speed then it normally does.

The catalytic lens is the best way to get tons of nether ores and it can remove lava ^^.

wouldnt it still fall down?

I don't know, maybe if there is some lava left above the mined area. But if you are going to point at a wall with lava behind it, it will only remove lava in this way.

Well, if you bring in some ice, you can turn the lava into obsidian.

thats gonna be one shitload of ice

Good old Philosopher's Stone is useful for transmuting lava into obsidian, and netherrack into cobblestone. Its max area of effect is 5x5x5.

chalange accepted: ill make a mining system, in the nether with the rp2 frames. ill send a pic later on.

edit, nevermind. cant get power in the nether :/

[Torezu]

Also, mining with frames where the blocks potentially explode is bad.

Why is this thread here, in this section?

Challenge: Make a tunnel bor

You can use thermopiles (gonna need a lot of them for something like this) or you charge batteries in the overworld and discharge them in the nether using enderchests.

[Torezu]

How are you going to use thermopiles without ice or water? I suppose you could get ice from machines, but doesn't it just melt and evaporate? (I haven't tried it yet.)

[Neowulf]

Anyone tried snow blocks? It would be odd for eloraam to consider ice and water as cold but neglect snow.

[LazDude2012]

Ice melts into water, which then stays. Water doesn't evaporate in the Nether unless you place it with a bucket.

[NightKev]

Thermopiles work with more than just water and lava, btw.

[The Count]

or, instead of using a complicated machine, you could use a mining laser. netherack has really low blast Resistance, so it would be easy with a bat-pack and mining laser set to explosive

[Archevei]

I find a location far from a lava lake, place a turtle, make it dig a 9x9 quarry, and I'm set.

[MoJoCyAnIdE]

sorry for being dumb or something, but what does a world anchor do?

[Ziinia]

Hmmm, let me google that for you... http://lmgtfy.com/?q=World+Anchor
