Surviving on One Heart in Minecraft's Lifesteal SMP

Introduction

• Playing Minecraft on one heart is challenging
• Playing on a server with people trying to kill you is almost impossible
• Forced to test this on the Lifesteal SMP
• Lifesteal SMP: Killing someone gains you a heart, dying loses you a heart
• Got down to two hearts due to frequent deaths
• Incident with Woogie X and Parrot
  • Parrot started a war over a tree
  • Revealed tree location to Woogie, got killed
  • Teams don't trust me, goal: gain more hearts

Plans to Gain Hearts

Initial Attempts

• Golden Apples: Temporary hearts
• Kill Someone: Risk of being banned if hit once
• Crafting Hearts: Requires Totems of Undying, need to kill pillagers
• Trading with Players: Trust issues
• Traps: Viable if I get the kill credit

Execution of Plan

• Brew Invisibility Potion, lure victim to fall trap
• Problem: Everyone carries pearls, won't follow to random trap
• Use Friend (Pengy): Trick into trap
  • Plan to push Pengy into the pit
  • Explains it as a trust exercise
  • Ends up killing Pengy while he's defenseless, gets a heart

Gaining More Hearts

• Raided a base, collected necessary items
• Encounter with Mapic, narrowly escaped
• Raid Farm: Server violation but necessary
  • Gathered Totems of Undying
  • Gained several hearts, confident to conduct raids
• Completed Raids: Quickly increased hearts without getting hit
• Reached seven hearts by the next day

Final Preparations and War

• Decision: Participate in Parrot vs. Woogie war
• Prepared traps
• Tricked PlanetLord for another heart, apologized and returned items
• The Battle: Defending Parrot's side, confrontations
  • Enemy (Radoons) had 20 hearts
  • Strategic escape and final push
  • Did not capture Radoons, but counted as a win
• Brought tree to spawn, war ends

Conclusion

• Temporary alliances broke up
• Other members waging new wars
