Minecraft snapshot 23w13a is out now, and makes a dramatic change to the ultimate sandbox game, altering how diamond ore appears in the deepest parts of the world. Learning how to find Minecraft diamonds is one of the most instrumental parts of any Minecraft player’s learning experience, so a change to that is quite exciting – and it’s good news. There are also updates to Librarians and Wandering Traders, so read on for the full details.
Librarians will now sell more specific Minecraft enchantments rather than having completely random selections on offer. You’ll have to track them down in specific biomes to find the books that are sold in that region, and will need to find a master Librarian to get your hands on the most powerful enchanted books.
Wandering Traders have been made much more useful – they now have lower prices than before, with more of each item in stock, and can now buy certain items from you if you want to get your hands on a few more emeralds.
Among the other changes is a buff to diamond ore generation. “We have increased the amount of diamond ore found in the deepest parts of the world,” developer Mojang says. “Our goal is to make it more rewarding to mine for diamonds in the Deepslate layers.”
If you’re a Minecraft veteran, you probably know that the most common trick is to mine for diamonds a little up from the lowest levels of the world, because you can avoid the bigger underground lava lakes that spawn right near the bottom. Now, you might be more tempted to seek out the greater rewards that await you!
Additional technical changes, network protocol updates, server commands, and more can be found via the Minecraft website.
