Either jungle, savanna village, woodland mansion room, or in a ruined portal that's right at spawn. Otherwise it becomes find a warm biome rng if spawn is cold, like on igloo seeds. End city isn't really a viable alternative.

DriftSythe

filter for outpost so you can do raids for witch
Pythoria

And filter for village and igloo so you can strike villager with lightning for witch

I guess you can, but it'll probably be faster to run 3k blocks

Idk maybe there's enough ways that it's fine as is

if you have bone blocks growing melons is a legit strat I think (wiki says it's about 5 minutes on average per melon in ideal conditions but I think you only need 1 random tick to hit so you can probably grow a bunch of melon stems)

trial chambers are a legit strat too
blanket addict

all the strats if you don't have easy melon access are time consuming and RNG dependent but I think it collectively adds up to probably being fine

I usually get my healing potions from trial chambers
Threadfinn
ThreadfinnOP2 months ago
Where are you getting the seeds though? Mineshaft?
Threadfinn
ThreadfinnOP2 months ago
But I do kinda agree, even though each strat only has like a 25% chance of success there's enough options that's an ok rng goal.
blanket addict
blanket addict2 months ago
yeah
blanket addict

which is the main thing holding it back along with it still being RNG, because it should take a while to pie ray and dig down and find a chest with it, compared to growing the melons

i feel like youd need to fully explore through like 4 trial chambers on average to get one
maskers
maskers2 months ago
i completely made this number up but

do u pieray for the minecart chest for the 27.3% chance per minecart chest for seeds, still doesnt really sound consistent
Threadfinn
ThreadfinnOP2 months ago
I think that's what they meant, yeah it's still not a guarantee
maskers
maskers2 months ago
its not like you can overlap them though
maskers
maskers2 months ago
so it still sounds just as annoying as if there was only one way to get melons most of the time
Threadfinn
ThreadfinnOP2 months ago(edited)
Here's all the possible ways to get a healing potion or melons (I think)
Farmer: 100% at max level
Jungle: Very high chance
Savanna Village: 72%
Witch: 8.5% each
Mineshaft: 27% per minecart. Seeds only
Ruined portal: 7.3%
Trial Chamber: 3.4% per dispenser
Woodland mansion: 13.5% per chest. Seeds only

There are a lot of ways, but all time consuming and all rng except farmer.

im curious if anyone has the distribution of the amount of dispensers per trial chamber
Threadfinn
ThreadfinnOP2 months ago
And none overlap really, maybe you find a mineshaft intersecting a trial chamber but it's unlikely
Threadfinn
ThreadfinnOP2 months ago
I really want sam's next project to be figuring out chances of everything in trial chambers
Threadfinn
ThreadfinnOP2 months ago
Idk how to do it myself

woodland mansion: lol
Threadfinn
ThreadfinnOP2 months ago
oh true lol
maskers
maskers2 months ago
well ig i think ive seen it twice in draftout
Threadfinn

Really I think this goal is the same as xp bottle. You might just get it off spawn, but if you don't you either choose between trading a villager to max level or just playing rng.

maxing a cleric is easier than maxing a farmer
maskers
maskers2 months ago
i want to say xp bottle is both easier to trade for and explore for
Threadfinn

Glistering melon needs 18 emeralds and 36 haybales, xp bottle needs 10 emeralds and 60 gold (assuming realistic minimum emeralds used). I'd say they're pretty similar overall
Threadfinn
ThreadfinnOP2 months ago
But xp bottle is easier to explore for as long as you have ocean
maskers
maskers2 months ago
you also need a fort, the goal isnt "obtain glistering melon"
DriftSythe
DriftSythe2 months ago
36 haybales is just rng and you most likely need 2 villages, gold is guaranteed in the bastion
Threadfinn
ThreadfinnOP2 months ago(edited)
Well you can also use ~50 emeralds with 0 hay. You can either trade sticks/clay or get the emeralds from trial chamber
Threadfinn
ThreadfinnOP2 months ago
And yeah gold is guaranteed but why are you going to a bastion and saving 7 gold blocks? If you need bastion trades you probably don't have that much left over, and if you don't need bastion trades then that's time you probably could've better spent doing something else.
