Hi! [THERE IS A WAY TO AVOID THE INTO FIRE ADVANCEMENT]
Firstly, thanks for watching the video, I didn't expect this to blow up like that!
Secondly, a way to avoid the Into Fire advancement was found!!!
As DrMeanie and nameedited1936 stated in the comments, the streamer/youtuber SmallAnt discovered a way to avoid the Into Fire advancement: if you make the blazes die on top of a hopper with a boat chest under it, you can then bring the boat chest all the way back to the overworld next to your crafting table, open the menu of the boat chest while pointing towards the crafting table, and if you click the offhand button, it will put the blaze rods in your offhand, and you don't get the advancement as long as you don't close the GUI of the boat chest, so if you close the boat chest menu and instantly open the menu of the crafting table on the same frame, you can avoid the advancement! Here's a small video example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcIkwGbjYlc
This makes the game beatable with only 4 advancements (including root advancements)!
Now, there's also a few questions I see a lot in the comments, so instead of answering the same thing to every comment individually, I'll answer them all here:
Q: Your food bar keeps going up and down, did you eat food off camera?
A: No, I did not eat any food. Respawning resets your food bar, so whenever I see my food bar going down I place all my items in a chest, jump from a bit too high or stay in water for a bit too long, and once I respawned my food bar is now full, and I come back to get the items from the chest I placed (which I often sort the exact same way, so the only thing that changes after a cut is my food bar). I do it at 3:08 for example.
Also, this doesn't have any repercussions in the run, the world is not in hardcore so we can respawn as much as we want, and lava/water don't count as entity damage so we don't get the "Adventure" advancement.
Q: You said you're playing in 1.19.4 but your game has old Netherrack textures, how?
A: I did play in 1.19.4 but I used the "Programmer Art" resource pack, which shows the textures from pre-1.14.
Q: How did you change your spawnpoint without getting the "Sweet Dreams" advancement?
A: You only get that advancement by sleeping in the bed, if you click on the bed during daytime, it will change your spawnpoint without giving you the advancement.
Q: Doesn't collecting seeds give the "A Seedy Place" advancement?
A: Nope, you only get that advancement by planting the seeds, not by collecting them.
Q: How did you avoid "Getting Wood", "Taking Inventory" and "Time to Mine!"?
A: Those used to be "Achievements", but in Java Edition they got removed in 1.12, where they got replaced by Advancements. So there are no advancements for opening your inventory, gathering wood or making wooden tools anymore.
Q: Doesn't entering a boat in water give an advancement?
A: No, that's a recipe.
Q: Isn't there another way to get Blaze Rods or Blaze Powder without going in the Nether like trading with villagers or killing witches?
A: No. In the current version of Minecraft (Java Edition), Blazes are the only way to obtain Blaze Rods and Blaze Powder, and Eyes of Ender can only be crafted. Witches don't drop blaze powder, Eyes of Ender do not spawn in any chests, cleric Villagers stopped trading Eyes of Ender in 1.9 and they have never traded Blaze Rods or Blaze Powder, and the brewing stand in igloos do not contain any Blaze Powder.
Q: Can't you get a fully light up portal to avoid the Nether entirely and finish the game in two advancements?
A: Theoretically, yes. However, that would only be realistically possible on a set seed, since an end portal only has one chance in a TRILLION to spawn pre-filled with 12 eyes.
Q: You can avoid "Into Fire" by using the gui skip glitch!!
A: That would've been a way to avoid it, but unfortunately this got patched in version 1.17, so we can't do that anymore, and reverting to an older version would go against the rules I set for this challenge. However, as stated at the top of this comment, another way was found to avoid this advancement.
Q: Banana and Bread did it first, you copied them!!
A: Actually, I had the idea for this challenge long before they made a video about it. I finished writing the route for this video in September 2022, while Banana and Bread uploaded their video in March 2023. I only started recording for this video in late April though, and in the meantime they had the same idea and made a video first. Anyway, their video is good, you should watch it, it's interesting to see how we found completely different ways to avoid some advancements!
Q: wow old netherrack is ugly
A: yeah but i like it
Also, at 11:00 I said we couldn't trade with Piglins without getting an advancement, but actually if you wear gold armor when trading with the Piglin, you don't trigger the "Oh Shiny" advancement, so trading gold to Piglins would've worked.
I hope that will answer some of your questions, thanks for your comments! 🙂
3:59 4:03 how did his hunger bar go back up?
The getting a blaze rod achievement is definitely avoidable, just use a hopper
What the
what texture pack are you using that reverts blocks to their original look?
love when ppl using dying in the game as a tool
thats not 1.19.4 with those textures. nuh uh thats cheating
U GOT GETTING WOOD
its not possible
You can avoid the blaze rod one tho
First off amazing video and I am sorry so many of these comments are rude.
I saw you have been responding as of late and was wondering if you considered cuttting the nether and opting for trading for eyes of ender? that should be one less advancement eventhough you get an advancement for trading? Unfortunately I am fairly positive there is no way of avoiding the trading advancement as the eyes would have to hit your inventory. Regardless I think this is one less advancement.
now that they are adding the auto crafter you might be able to do it without the blaze rod acheivement
You can place bed under portal end when gie respawn in end infinite end stuck in end forever
Wait, you get the advancement oh shiny when you distract a piglet that means when you don’t have any gold armor, it will attack you or when you attack it and you give it gold you get shiny if you have full gold armor, just any piece of gold armor if you give it gold You won’t get the advancement. I’m not sure about it just don’t take my word for it.
How much storage are these videos always? (uncut material)
10:47 in a very peaceful manner proceeds to use fire
I saw you get achievement
just turn on cheats lmfao
I think the absolute minimum would be 2 advancements. Which are the two advancements for entering the End. Though only aplicable to seeds with pre-activated End Portal.
first video i have seen from you and it was super interesting how you avoided most advancements i thought you gonna need to get. will check out more videos for sure.
i guess 2 is the bare minimum you need to get for entering the end, isnt it?
blaze rod can be avoided by the trick in your pinned comment and entering the nether by getting a 12 eye portal (which would technically be possible and not break the rules of random seed, since this is more like a proof of concept video to me should still count. you know, just get some good ol' dream luck for that 1 in a trillion chance)
oh and the number of stupid comments of people not getting how you "filled" your hunger bar or thinking they caught you cheating is funny.
sad but funny.
