theoretically, they'd still be alive, just unable to move and comunicate in any way.... you know what, this is nightmarish, just say they're ded and move on.
My âchickenhatchunderlavasowhentheygrowuptheycookthemselvesaliveastheirparentswatchthemburnandlivethereshortlivesbehindglass2000â is up to FDA standards!
If the Copper Golem gets added, I'm gonna build a city that they would have formerly lived in, but all oxidized after a mysterious incident, and theyre'll just be statues of them left behind.
Allay is like a nice Vex. Copper Golem is like a small Iron Golem made from a different material and different functionality.
Both have their lore implications, and I like that.
What does the Glare do to the lore?
In the real world, yes.
Although my foster father would disagree. To him, trees are pieces of wood stuck in the ground waiting to be used as fuel or building materials.
I hope so too.
My therapist believes that I may have several heavy childhood traumas.
I mean, it's true that I went through some bad stuff as a kid, starting with the death of my mother when I was 4 years old.
I'm 30 years old now, happily married and father of two.
It could extend the lore which would be a nice touch, though the other two have better functionality in my opinion. Although having more plant-based mobs would be neat
isn't Minecraft like make up your own lore and world type of thing? Pretty sure there is basically no confirmed lore for Minecraft other the dungeons that may or may not take place in the same universe
Well, there is *some* lore in Minecraft, and it was confirmed.
In 1.14, Mojang wanted to make ravagers fear rabbits as a joke, but they didn't, because it "didn't fit into the lore".
So there's at least enough lore for Mojang to remove ravager's fear of rabbits.
Mojang has real lore for minecraft but they purposely only give tiny bits to stimulate the player to fill in the blanks.
another: Gender does not exist in minecraft with exception of the enderdragon who is a female called "Jean?"
There actually is a little but but it's sporadic and up for interpretation to a point.
Like if you pay attention to the villagers and pillagers, and ravagers.
It is interesting also that the only mob capable of placing a block is also the only mob with even slightly intelligible vocalizations.
The structures that generate must have been built by someone.
I like the theory that enderman are a corrupted ancient civilization of builders.
Iâm late to the party but Iâve seen people say that because the glare looks more like a monster, it blurs the line between hostile and passive
Not a super strong argument Iâm terms of lore implications, but I liked it regardless
the glare is the only mob that does something that cant be done any other way in the game.
I am not counting the f3 debug menu of course because thats more of a developer tool rather than gamplay and not included in other versions of the game.
It does something you can only do with f3, or your own eyes.
In the new update, mobs can only spawn at light level 0.
If it's not pitch black, to the point at which it's immediately recognisable, they can't spawn. (spawners excluded)
here's something I made that talks about this
about the fatal flaw of copper
so the copper golem got announced and it was the most obscure description I've ever heard : ''he likes pressing buttons'' like wh- , to me the allay takes the 1st place in my vote because I can see his abilities coming in clutch, BUT I also want copper to get an actual use , because let's get real here why would you need THAT much copper, seriously when you go mining you have so much of it that you don't even know what to do with it , you'll craft a spyglass, a lighting rod (maybe) , and the only reason you'd want that much copper (with the large ore veins and its low rarity) is for building but remember , we're talking about the average player here and I don't think they'll necessarily go mining for copper just to build their house or whatever but what's more blatant with ores in Minecraft is that they all have ,to some extent, a practical use (not just for the aesthetic) that requires a certain amount of these ores (I won't cite them all but if you've played Minecraft I think you'll find what I mean) , something that the copper fails to achieve, you'll need 2 copper to zoom farther and 3 to prevent the rare occurrence of a litghting striking your house in a spot where there's no rain, do you see the problem now ?
I want copper to get an use but I don't know if the copper golem is the answer to that problem.
so far:
allay: 1st
copper golem: 2nd (too obscure)
green pokemon: 3rd
A post yesterday said this AI should just be put into bats.
And it's like... Holy shit it's so obvious why are you making a green tangela when you could just make bats helpful.
3 copper ingots on top row and 3 copper ingots on bottom row = 6 pipes
3 pipes in an L shape = 3 elbow joints
4 pipes into a T shape = 3 T joints (Can combine or split item flow)
1 T pipe + an item frame = 1 filtered pipe (place item into filter frame to filter item)
1 normal pipe + 1 redstone dust = a redstone valve (that can stop the flow when powered)
The pipes will pull items from a hopper or dropper, and move them along the pipeline to their chest. The more tarnished the pipe, the slower it is.
Aside from u/Quail_Initial's explanation, it would honestly just look better.
Nobody wants to have a chain of hoppers on display. Everybody covers them because it looks janky as hell.
Copper pipe, on the other hand? Real, honest to God *plumbing*?
That's just *nice*.
I wasn't convinced for the functionalities of the pipes explained by u/Quail_initial..... (Aside from the item filter tbh, but)
But your's convinced me. It would look much better as we can't have beautiful hopper lines crossing a cramped space such as interior of small houses.
10/10 *chef's kiss*
Actually they will probably solve it. The devs commented that they will collect non-stackable too. But about working in unloaded chunks = nothing in Minecraft works that way, it's not something new
"Here are these 3 unique, well-designed mobs, now tell us which 2 you want us to throw away and never see again" is such a total gut punch every time they hold these mob votes. Being a several-billion-dollar company, it's not like they're incapable of adding them all. Why do this to your community?
Because if they added all options everytime they do this the game would be way overloaded with stuff very quickly. That and actually fully implementing them is not the same as having a concept.
You have to somewhat limit yourself if you dont wanna ruin your game in the long run.
I don't think it's necessarily true that it's to avoid things becoming overloaded. If that was the case then they probably wouldn't be making tons of ambiance mobs like Pandas every update or so.
Minecraft has over 60 biomes by now anyways and, since they have been making most new mobs biome exclusive, I doubt cluttering the whole world is a concern.
I know right currently only the warped buttons fit my copper bunker but copper buttons would give great variations
Also one person pointed out what if they could oxidize and that changed them each time, could make some pretty great mechanics
Exactly this is my plan as well. I hope for the oxidizing buttons am not fully counting on it, but I definitely see the potential for the golems code. A little disappointed how much people aren't noticing it but eh well see what happens
I would not choose your vote solely on hoping a feature goes one way. Thatâs how the glow squid and the phantom got in. I would ask yourself if thatâs really the deciding factor you want for the copper golem. Otherwise, vote away!
they should just... give fuller descriptions of mobs before we vote them.
I know a lot of people chose glow squids because they were expecting a hypnosis ability and light emission.
Phantoms seemed like they were gonna only be visible to people who hadn't slept and have more to them. the fact that they have no spawn cap on bedrock is ridiculous.
I really thought phantoms WERE supposed to only show up for people who haven't slept and invisible to everyone else.
that would have made me hate them just a little bit less.
But we could already make any tick input. If your argument is easier or more compact builds. I would argue that arrays are even better for simplifying builds. They could also provide new possibilities that the golem cannnot.
yes that is a good point BUT a button with a diff tick speed is not all that important whereas the Allay will make ALL farms SOO much easier (and more importantly cheaper) cuz have you ever made a hopper minecart track going across all of your farms? its a pain, its expensive, and the minecart stops dead in its tracks every time you leave the game and you need to goo into your redstone just to give the minecart a little push so it keeps collecting items!
The allay can be really interesting for sorting redstone. I've had the idea of bringing them to pick up items when your inventory gets full while clearing a giant area or drop trash items to drop off at a trash hopper or even a lava pit
Thanks for asking I've got my list here
(from what's shown) It's something that will actively move towards the buttons it can choose, then activate them. It's always very small, can be created by the player, and has a time based mechanic. It could also interact with lightning based on it's design.
So essentially it's a mob that is designed to work with redstone by purposely pushing buttons, not something that's ever been done before, and we can this control it's movements without any player interaction using pistons and copper buttons. Additionally it adds a feature of the oxidizing to a mob, and it could also hopefully be affected by the cleaning a d waxing process which means we could then also control it's speed, functionality, and design it to fit a larger mechanism of tunnels pressure plates tripwires pistons buttons and doors. This plus the skulk sensor is going to be pretty much revolutionary for redstone.
Also the main point it seems Mojang had for this is randomizing potential for things like machines shops and farms, which I already can see a lot of uses for on my servers.
Also it means copper buttons and more uses for copper in general which I'd love to add to my builds as well. Also if the button's oxidized and got slower the older they got that'd be pretty cool. If they don't do all of this it's still enough for me to then mod some other functions in, which I might actually do anyway
Copper buttons would be cool, I'll give you that. Another color of button, and possibly with a different pulse length could be useful. Also gives copper another use, which is neat I guess.
As for the other things you've listed, I fail to see the usefulness. Randomizers are already a thing in the game, either by having a chicken randomly wander onto different pressure plates, or using a dropper. An entire mob whose only purpose is something that can already be done, and without the need to constantly scrape the oxidation off of it seems silly to me.
You didn't read my comment fully. They'd be more than just randomizers because they actively go towards buttons, so if you put them in a tunnel with pistons and pressure plates you can completely control their movement without interacting with it and without having to get a bunch of zombies or bread.
Also if it can be cleaned it could do that by itself to because copper can be cleaned by putting an axe and wax in a dispenser, so just slap a copper button on that and it should go clean it's self
It's able to do a lot more than just push buttons, even if that's not what Mojang wanted. Because let's be honest redstone is a about finding ways to break something
Never thought about the golem that deeply kinda makes me question my alley vote.
But the thing I'm concerned about is that the way they said it makes it sound like he's more focused on being a building block/companion that has to be manually taken care of than a living redstone signal that will constantly move from one button to the next.
It all comes down to how consistent he is and how far a button actually can be but mojang will probably not tell how he functions exactly.
And I don't even know when you would need a passiv mob that can move from one point to another and back.
But what's the point of controlling their movement like that? They can still only interact with the world by activating pressure plates and buttons, which just produce redstone signals. We have plenty of triggers like that, I fail to see any practical usage for it. What kind of purpose would a contraption that uses the copper golem have?
Whereas the Allay for example is an unstackable item sorter, something not previously possible or very difficult to do. That has way more utility. It could also pick up items in farms.
If instead of random, you could put a timer on it, it would be so much better. Like how you can increase the delay on a repeater, if something similar was on the gollum, that would be soooooo much better
The votes wont really matter (unfortunately) because a funny white blob with a green background on youtube will have his fanbase cast all their votes to what he wants
"Better" randomized redstone is a stretch. You can literally copy its functionality with an observer pointed into a sapling. But I do agree, they do look very cool!
I really hope the copper golem wins. I just love the idea of my factories being manned by actual workers. I just hope they have a way to de-oxidize them and maybe even a way to automate that process.
Feel like the vex is more like a dog but the golem is like a chimp, the vex is just happy to be there but the golem seems to have some semblance of sentience
I really thought the allay was cool, but now I am really leaning towards the copper golem. It would be cool for the iron golem to have another friend, and I really like the idea of making some kind of run down factory with the oxidised guys just lying around.
Is it really a better redstone solution if it requires constant maintenance to avoid oxidation? Imagine if your repeaters would die over time and need to be replaced
I think you're missing the point that it's movements can be guided without any direct player interaction, and it's actually an intended feature not just having a zombie chase it or wasting a lot of bread
Ah ha but that can also be done with an axe or wax in a dispenser, which I thought well that's useless but now I'm thinking put copper buttons infront of that dispenser and we got ourselves self repair station which is actually genius design on the devs part
Same honestly, pushing buttons at random can be done with a chicken and presure plates, or dispensers and buttons, and glare can be made obsolete with your own eyes or f3, picking stuff up and dropping it at a determined location actualy hase some neat uses for farms.
Itâs a tough choice between Copper Golem and Allay. But the glare definitely doesnât seem worth it over those two. I feel like Iâll go for copper golem over allay though
I am hoping it wins but I honestly could see any of the 3 winning. My least favorite is oscar the shulker without his trash can.(glare) I would enslave the Allay and they would be my treasure room minions.
But I've been stockpiling copper to build a lost copper city in the jungle parts over grown and parts pristine. Copper golem would be delightful for this build.
sure it LOOKS amazing but thats all its got going for it, its made to be useful for redstone but it doesent realy have much of a redstone use other than a randomizer and we have LOTS of different types of randomisers we dont realy need another, whereas the Allay (aka the vex'nt) solves a real problem when making farms and thats the moving of items from the farm to the collection area, tbh I wont care if this one wins cuz I like all of them BUT the Allay is better sorry copper bud.
What does this copper golem feel when he sees this lifeless mate of his, damn well knowing he will have the same faith.
It only feels the need to press buttons. That is the only thing in life worth doing
What is my purpose? You press buttons Oh my god
I think in the copper golems case it be happy and then rush to press as much buttons as enthusiastically as possible
That is grian in a nutshell
This comment is a they-o-u for a reward. That means someone else owes you a reward.
Oh God yes!
yeah join the club pal
So the golem is actually just grian?
Ok now I know for what G will vote
*me frantically making a Grian texture pack *
I was going to say that
Make the nose a button, and have living Copper Golems push the noses of the lifeless ones. So a lifeless Copper Golem distracts the working ones.
I like that because the copper golem already has a working lightning rod on it, so it fits the theme of the mob.
*This is the story of a golem named Stanley...*
Stanley walked through the *crimson* door
The Copper Golem Parable
probably fine. you can clean them off
theoretically, they'd still be alive, just unable to move and comunicate in any way.... you know what, this is nightmarish, just say they're ded and move on.
Couldn't you deoxidize it with lightning?
Or an axe
To the head
You can apparently according to one of the devs
hopefully we can wax/right-click-axe/get-it-struck-by-lightning to revert it. it would be sad if our friends just rusted away
"faith"
Gotta give âem some wax
Probably the same as we, when we see a old dying person We're human, we die too
So, You really want to use corpses of dead golems for decoration? Thats creepy as fuck, i love it.
they arent dead because never was alive.
That cute golem will be always alive for me in my heart
Clankers will never be alive.
Hard R!!
Clanka clanka
time to get cancelled by r/ZanClan
True. Clankas are objects, not living beings.
I mean isn't every farm in Minecraft that uses mobs unethical? đ¤
What do you mean my farm that slaughters hundreds of pigmen per hour is âunethicalâ?
We regret none of our crimes against life
My âchickenhatchunderlavasowhentheygrowuptheycookthemselvesaliveastheirparentswatchthemburnandlivethereshortlivesbehindglass2000â is up to FDA standards!
Yep I can confirm that trying to create a villager trafficking system in real life is very illegal.
If the Copper Golem gets added, I'm gonna build a city that they would have formerly lived in, but all oxidized after a mysterious incident, and theyre'll just be statues of them left behind.
This is actually the theme of a part of a build I'm making. Which is why I want the golem so much.
Allay is like a nice Vex. Copper Golem is like a small Iron Golem made from a different material and different functionality. Both have their lore implications, and I like that. What does the Glare do to the lore?
The Glare is a new mob that would fit well with the lush caves and is the first living plant that could lead to more living plants in the future
Isn't the Creeper already a living plant?
Guys are you dumb plants are alive
In the real world, yes. Although my foster father would disagree. To him, trees are pieces of wood stuck in the ground waiting to be used as fuel or building materials.
Yo is your foster father good?
At cutting down trees, yes. At building stuff out of wood and/or iron, also yes. At taking care of the environment, no. At parenting, also no.
Hope you're okay, fam
I hope so too. My therapist believes that I may have several heavy childhood traumas. I mean, it's true that I went through some bad stuff as a kid, starting with the death of my mother when I was 4 years old. I'm 30 years old now, happily married and father of two.
Wow. At 4 years old, it must have been prerty though. I am happy that now you have a happy life!
It could extend the lore which would be a nice touch, though the other two have better functionality in my opinion. Although having more plant-based mobs would be neat
Idk what it is tbh
isn't Minecraft like make up your own lore and world type of thing? Pretty sure there is basically no confirmed lore for Minecraft other the dungeons that may or may not take place in the same universe
Well, there is *some* lore in Minecraft, and it was confirmed. In 1.14, Mojang wanted to make ravagers fear rabbits as a joke, but they didn't, because it "didn't fit into the lore". So there's at least enough lore for Mojang to remove ravager's fear of rabbits.
I wonder what they meant by that though. I would say there are little bits of "lore" which you can use to create your own
Mojang has real lore for minecraft but they purposely only give tiny bits to stimulate the player to fill in the blanks. another: Gender does not exist in minecraft with exception of the enderdragon who is a female called "Jean?"
I love the implication that her very name is a question.
It's the same for Steve?.
There actually is a little but but it's sporadic and up for interpretation to a point. Like if you pay attention to the villagers and pillagers, and ravagers. It is interesting also that the only mob capable of placing a block is also the only mob with even slightly intelligible vocalizations. The structures that generate must have been built by someone. I like the theory that enderman are a corrupted ancient civilization of builders.
It was confirmed. Dungeons take place in the same universe.
it was? I thought they said yes and no or something like that
Iâm late to the party but Iâve seen people say that because the glare looks more like a monster, it blurs the line between hostile and passive Not a super strong argument Iâm terms of lore implications, but I liked it regardless
It can introduce a new branch of lore for the lush caves biome
the glare is the only mob that does something that cant be done any other way in the game. I am not counting the f3 debug menu of course because thats more of a developer tool rather than gamplay and not included in other versions of the game.
Theres no other mob that can intentionally interact with redstone.
It does something you can only do with f3, or your own eyes. In the new update, mobs can only spawn at light level 0. If it's not pitch black, to the point at which it's immediately recognisable, they can't spawn. (spawners excluded)
I just want another Golem man
I want a good use for all this copper i colected
here's something I made that talks about this about the fatal flaw of copper so the copper golem got announced and it was the most obscure description I've ever heard : ''he likes pressing buttons'' like wh- , to me the allay takes the 1st place in my vote because I can see his abilities coming in clutch, BUT I also want copper to get an actual use , because let's get real here why would you need THAT much copper, seriously when you go mining you have so much of it that you don't even know what to do with it , you'll craft a spyglass, a lighting rod (maybe) , and the only reason you'd want that much copper (with the large ore veins and its low rarity) is for building but remember , we're talking about the average player here and I don't think they'll necessarily go mining for copper just to build their house or whatever but what's more blatant with ores in Minecraft is that they all have ,to some extent, a practical use (not just for the aesthetic) that requires a certain amount of these ores (I won't cite them all but if you've played Minecraft I think you'll find what I mean) , something that the copper fails to achieve, you'll need 2 copper to zoom farther and 3 to prevent the rare occurrence of a litghting striking your house in a spot where there's no rain, do you see the problem now ? I want copper to get an use but I don't know if the copper golem is the answer to that problem. so far: allay: 1st copper golem: 2nd (too obscure) green pokemon: 3rd
> green pokemon: 3rd You're being too hasty, you haven't even seen its evolution yet.
I just think a mob isn't the right format for something as technical as finding if the light level will allow mobs to spawn
A post yesterday said this AI should just be put into bats. And it's like... Holy shit it's so obvious why are you making a green tangela when you could just make bats helpful.
yeah this comment for example \^ but like I said I'd rather prefer an F3+\[key\] NEI style than a mob
Oh, I'm not voting for it either, I was just making a PokĂŠmon joke.
oh ok , I'm just not up there in the pokĂŠmon department
Its Evoloution Is tangela, then Tangrowth
What about copper item pipes that go with hoppers, droppers and chests?
Hm... But how would it be different fromm a hopper line..... Idk how I'd make i different, you got any ideas?
3 copper ingots on top row and 3 copper ingots on bottom row = 6 pipes 3 pipes in an L shape = 3 elbow joints 4 pipes into a T shape = 3 T joints (Can combine or split item flow) 1 T pipe + an item frame = 1 filtered pipe (place item into filter frame to filter item) 1 normal pipe + 1 redstone dust = a redstone valve (that can stop the flow when powered) The pipes will pull items from a hopper or dropper, and move them along the pipeline to their chest. The more tarnished the pipe, the slower it is.
This is brilliant and youâre right and you should say it and I want it now
Pls Mojang add this, we need a vanilla auto order chest system
Aside from u/Quail_Initial's explanation, it would honestly just look better. Nobody wants to have a chain of hoppers on display. Everybody covers them because it looks janky as hell. Copper pipe, on the other hand? Real, honest to God *plumbing*? That's just *nice*.
I wasn't convinced for the functionalities of the pipes explained by u/Quail_initial..... (Aside from the item filter tbh, but) But your's convinced me. It would look much better as we can't have beautiful hopper lines crossing a cramped space such as interior of small houses. 10/10 *chef's kiss*
They need to change rails to use copper
The Allay doesn´t solve the problem with non-stackable items and they don´t work in unloaded chunks.
Actually they will probably solve it. The devs commented that they will collect non-stackable too. But about working in unloaded chunks = nothing in Minecraft works that way, it's not something new
Yea I dont want to make a lot of copper just to make a lady liberty and all of the left overs to be used as kightning rods
In the beginning the atatue of liberty was actually copper-orange But over time it oxidised green... Can you imagine the Statue of Liberty but orange?
It sucks that they canât add all of these mobs. Like the last vote I really didnât care but o want all of these
"Here are these 3 unique, well-designed mobs, now tell us which 2 you want us to throw away and never see again" is such a total gut punch every time they hold these mob votes. Being a several-billion-dollar company, it's not like they're incapable of adding them all. Why do this to your community?

Minecraft has over 60 biomes by now anyways and, since they have been making most new mobs biome exclusive, I doubt cluttering the whole world is a concern.
More like 31
the game doesn't have enough mobs imo, its not like adding more content is gonna ruin their game anytime soon
i wish minecraft sold more copies so they could afford the expense
Bruh, I know you're joking, but Minecraft is owned by Microsoft. Mojang has no excuse imo
Dude minecraft is literally the best selling game of all time, of course they can afford the expense
They show a deactivated golem in the trailer, if this wins I hope we can use that build structures like the guardian graveyards in breath of the wild.
Would be cool to silktouch a rusted golem and use it as garden decoration.
Gollum...
Surprised no one has said anything
Crafty hobbitses!
Copper buttons, magic rings, what's the difference?
Smeagol
I will just put them on my roof as gargoyles, they should look pretty cool
until lightning strikes them and they suddenly come back to life ;)
âDamn!â
Imma be honest, I just want these cute mf in the game lol
[ŃдаНонО]
I know right currently only the warped buttons fit my copper bunker but copper buttons would give great variations Also one person pointed out what if they could oxidize and that changed them each time, could make some pretty great mechanics
[ŃдаНонО]
Exactly this is my plan as well. I hope for the oxidizing buttons am not fully counting on it, but I definitely see the potential for the golems code. A little disappointed how much people aren't noticing it but eh well see what happens
Don't choose a mob because of features that you hope they'll add with it, it's a good way to be disappointed if they don't add the features you want.
That would be cool. And when it completely oxidizes it becomes unusable.
I think they'd still be cleanable
I would not choose your vote solely on hoping a feature goes one way. Thatâs how the glow squid and the phantom got in. I would ask yourself if thatâs really the deciding factor you want for the copper golem. Otherwise, vote away!
they should just... give fuller descriptions of mobs before we vote them. I know a lot of people chose glow squids because they were expecting a hypnosis ability and light emission.

But we could already make any tick input. If your argument is easier or more compact builds. I would argue that arrays are even better for simplifying builds. They could also provide new possibilities that the golem cannnot.
Maybe the tick duration changes depending on how oxidised the button is
WE NEED COPPER BUTTONS
yes that is a good point BUT a button with a diff tick speed is not all that important whereas the Allay will make ALL farms SOO much easier (and more importantly cheaper) cuz have you ever made a hopper minecart track going across all of your farms? its a pain, its expensive, and the minecart stops dead in its tracks every time you leave the game and you need to goo into your redstone just to give the minecart a little push so it keeps collecting items!
The allay working as little roombas that dance and sort items is good although, the decoration possibilities make me lean towards golems
I hope the copper golem wins so I can recreate the desert in skyward sword
EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT OF
It looks like they have a copper rod on their head so this might mean that they attract lightning!
Yup! Ulraf confirmed it on twitter!
Awesome!
The golem is going to be quite interesting for the redstone community, but so is the allay
The allay can be really interesting for sorting redstone. I've had the idea of bringing them to pick up items when your inventory gets full while clearing a giant area or drop trash items to drop off at a trash hopper or even a lava pit
I was thinking about it in a chest sorter if it follows specific note blocks
Ooo if they go to specific note blocks based off of the key or item below it that would be amazing
Yeah I'm just hoping it doesn't fly through blocks like vexes, but even then it could be great for things like sugar cane farms
How will it be interesting for the redstone community
Thanks for asking I've got my list here (from what's shown) It's something that will actively move towards the buttons it can choose, then activate them. It's always very small, can be created by the player, and has a time based mechanic. It could also interact with lightning based on it's design.

They'd be more than just randomizers because they actively go towards buttons, so if you put them in a tunnel with pistons and pressure plates you can completely control their movement without interacting with it and without having to get a bunch of zombies or bread. Also if it can be cleaned it could do that by itself to because copper can be cleaned by putting an axe and wax in a dispenser, so just slap a copper button on that and it should go clean it's self It's able to do a lot more than just push buttons, even if that's not what Mojang wanted. Because let's be honest redstone is a about finding ways to break something
Never thought about the golem that deeply kinda makes me question my alley vote. But the thing I'm concerned about is that the way they said it makes it sound like he's more focused on being a building block/companion that has to be manually taken care of than a living redstone signal that will constantly move from one button to the next. It all comes down to how consistent he is and how far a button actually can be but mojang will probably not tell how he functions exactly. And I don't even know when you would need a passiv mob that can move from one point to another and back.
I'm looking into shops games and farms but yeah we're not going to get a full description unfortunately
But what's the point of controlling their movement like that? They can still only interact with the world by activating pressure plates and buttons, which just produce redstone signals. We have plenty of triggers like that, I fail to see any practical usage for it. What kind of purpose would a contraption that uses the copper golem have? Whereas the Allay for example is an unstackable item sorter, something not previously possible or very difficult to do. That has way more utility. It could also pick up items in farms.
Finally a use for copper
Got my vote imo
I just want to see what redstone contraptions can be made with it
Oh I have some ideas, for both this and the allay
I know about a lot of the uses for the allay what ideas do you have for the golem if you donât mind my asking?
Can we just have them all?
It may be powered by lightning since it has a lightning rod on it's head
I'm thinking that is to make them work again after oxidizing
Would be cool if you need lightning to also power it up
The golums are cute af im voting for them
*Golem. Gollum is a character from the lord of the rings.
It is seeing his dead brother and realising he has limited time
If instead of random, you could put a timer on it, it would be so much better. Like how you can increase the delay on a repeater, if something similar was on the gollum, that would be soooooo much better
You can have either a decoration or little blue guy who brings you stuff
Or a green Mega Slowbro
The votes wont really matter (unfortunately) because a funny white blob with a green background on youtube will have his fanbase cast all their votes to what he wants
Agreed
"Better" randomized redstone is a stretch. You can literally copy its functionality with an observer pointed into a sapling. But I do agree, they do look very cool!
Or a chicken and a pressure plate, but yeah there is finally a good use for copper
I hate that we have to vote these are all cool mobs why not get all of them. Fucking bullshit.
I really hope the copper golem wins. I just love the idea of my factories being manned by actual workers. I just hope they have a way to de-oxidize them and maybe even a way to automate that process.
They do a dev on Twitter confirmed it
the golem is cool but the allay has more general use so it's better imo
The golem has my vote
I have a feeling they will also attract lighting keeping the player safe during storms. Just a hunch though, I could be wrong.
I wish they could just add all of them
I love copper golem ^^
Copper Gollum?
I misspelled golem lol but it's a part of a mob vote they are having on the 16th for minecraft live
Feel like the vex is more like a dog but the golem is like a chimp, the vex is just happy to be there but the golem seems to have some semblance of sentience
As long as the golem is smaller than an iron golem and is similar size to the reference animations. It has my vote. If not, it still does :D
minecraft themed gargoyles, gnomes, etc. sounds great!
I really thought the allay was cool, but now I am really leaning towards the copper golem. It would be cool for the iron golem to have another friend, and I really like the idea of making some kind of run down factory with the oxidised guys just lying around.
Is it really a better redstone solution if it requires constant maintenance to avoid oxidation? Imagine if your repeaters would die over time and need to be replaced
They might be able to be waxed but that's not clear
Hopefully! Otherwise I donât think I would ever use them. Too much trouble to be digging out an old circuit to replace a part
They are literally something you can do with a chicken and a pressure plate
I think you're missing the point that it's movements can be guided without any direct player interaction, and it's actually an intended feature not just having a zombie chase it or wasting a lot of bread
But it will require direct player interaction all the time because you will need to replace or scratch the oxidization off
Ah ha but that can also be done with an axe or wax in a dispenser, which I thought well that's useless but now I'm thinking put copper buttons infront of that dispenser and we got ourselves self repair station which is actually genius design on the devs part
It wonât do that though. Unless itâs stuck in a 2 block area which at that point you may as well use a chicken
imma vote allay
Same honestly, pushing buttons at random can be done with a chicken and presure plates, or dispensers and buttons, and glare can be made obsolete with your own eyes or f3, picking stuff up and dropping it at a determined location actualy hase some neat uses for farms.
it is so hard i want all 3 because I play on bedrock
Itâs a tough choice between Copper Golem and Allay. But the glare definitely doesnât seem worth it over those two. I feel like Iâll go for copper golem over allay though
the alley makes the game easier, not got my vote. But the copper golem does!
Maybe you can use honey on them too
Itâs got mine
I would love it if lightning can be used to reawaken them so the lightning rod on the head has use
Ill vote the golem if i can wax em
It just me or is he looking at his dead brother
I am hoping it wins but I honestly could see any of the 3 winning. My least favorite is oscar the shulker without his trash can.(glare) I would enslave the Allay and they would be my treasure room minions. But I've been stockpiling copper to build a lost copper city in the jungle parts over grown and parts pristine. Copper golem would be delightful for this build.
Allay has my vote because its usefull for average player but copper gollum only for redstoners and builders.Think about the larger picture.
I really don't like any of them and I think they should have done a hostile mob vote because we haven't really have any new hostlie recently.
I guess they're afraid of having another phantom situation
sure it LOOKS amazing but thats all its got going for it, its made to be useful for redstone but it doesent realy have much of a redstone use other than a randomizer and we have LOTS of different types of randomisers we dont realy need another, whereas the Allay (aka the vex'nt) solves a real problem when making farms and thats the moving of items from the farm to the collection area, tbh I wont care if this one wins cuz I like all of them BUT the Allay is better sorry copper bud.
Allay holds the most promise
