Note blocks imitate different instruments depending on the block below them. There are too many blocks/instruments to list so have a look for yourself:
https://minecraft.wiki/w/Note_Block (usage -> instruments)

There are 20 instruments (ignoring mob heads, although we could count them). Despite basically any block producing a sound, I think the block groups are nicely varied, and a fun challenge to remember.

You cannot find them all in one place, but all involve blocks that you could already encounter during a normal run, so there is some goal overlapping. Players will have to bring the noteblock with them and be aware of the blocks in their surroundings.

If the number is too high trial chambers might become the main strat(there are 4 copper instruments), which people seem to think is already goal heavy. Too low and the goal is basically the same as Play Noteblock.

Note Block

A note block is a block that emits sounds when attacked, used, or powered. The sound produced can be altered in various ways by using it or putting certain blocks directly above or below it. Allays are affected by note blocks, staying nearby and dropping held items next to it for a short while upon hearing its sound.

Maybe a goal for x=6 and/or x=10?

And Play Noteblock could be renamed to be consistent with these

ohh ye thats an intresting idea, even better imo cuz many different ways of achieving the goal
play 5/10/15 noteblock instruments goes crazy

What's the difference besides mob heads?

ArtnautaOP2 months ago

I guess we might as well include them even though it's an edge case that's never gonna get used

ArtnautaOP2 months ago(edited)

I do like this phrasing more too

Play X unique noteblock sounds

"Sounds" does not explicitly exclude different pitches of the same instrument but if the icon shows different blocks below a noteblock or hovering shows you the list that you've played it should be clear

5/10/15 makes sense yeah

this is so cool, but i feel like 15 is too many - it would require trial chamber, at least from what i can see, along with all the other random blocks, and having the noteblock itself. maybe would work better as a 3/5/7? or even just 5/10? rlly cool idea tho

ArtnautaOP2 months ago

I mean they're all blocks you come by anyway though, like the hardest to obtain are packed ice and emerald/gold/iron block so you can skip those and the rest just mostly needs to be remembered

ArtnautaOP2 months ago

15 would definitely be a late game goal yes, and if it's really too long it can be removed from competitive but you can still add it

in terms of visuals this should probably cycle through a bunch of instrument icons overlayed onto the note block with a row of possible blocks for that instrument at the top

there really should be a way to sort goals by upvotes but sadly not a feature of discord forums
