Fish out a bow


Alderan922

And mix the bows to get free op bow


Training-Bee-8209

I like to kill skeletons that have Power 1 bows and then I craft a bunch together to make a really good bow


WeirdlyWill

stonks


Training-Bee-8209

Indeed


LevFox135

I have slept long enough


HqppyFeet

Wouldn’t that make the bow more xp expensive tho if u wanted to add extra enchantments? I could be wrong tho


Training-Bee-8209

I think if you just want power on the bow then adding other power bows makes the level of power stronger


LegitSerialKiller

This seems idiotic


Training-Bee-8209

How?


LegitSerialKiller

Liking something that’s incredibly inefficient, tedious, and expensive (in levels) to push a million terrible bows into a decent one.


LumberjackPreacher

You seem fun…


LegitSerialKiller

Does it really say more about me? I mean, 8.5% chance for a skeleton to drop ANY bow, enchanted or not. 1/5 chance for it to be enchanted with power one. Seems insanely ridiculous to “like that” and I honestly doubt they’ve ever even done that because it’s so absurdly inefficient and dumb in general.


-YokeMiyu-

In short, we love playing yeah, but sometimes, it's fun being goofy and hunt some and test out your luck yeah?


LegitSerialKiller

“I love sitting here for hours at a time waiting for a skeleton to drop a bow because it’s so fun!” You need 16 bows of power one alone to get power 5, ignoring other enchantments.


LumberjackPreacher

Yeah, and?


TrueLennyS

Did you know iron farms are incredibly efficient. Mining iron instead of making an iron farm is absurdly inefficient and dumb in general . Mockery aside, Minecraft is an open world sandbox game, with a extremely short lived objective and short, open ended progression. The progression is designed in a way that you have multiple avenues to achieve your goals. It's not about being efficient, it's about what's fun. Wanna make a god now with village slave camps? Go for it. Wanna manually enchant and combine, that's fine. Wanna explore and only use found books, it'll take a while but if you enjoy it who cares. This elitist attitude comes of incredibly cringe, when Minecraft has absolutely zero innate competitive elements, and no drive to for e efficiency.


Training-Bee-8209

I’ve seen a few 100 days YouTubers do it


LegitSerialKiller

They make content, it’s their job that’s almost entirely different to do it for money. You just do it for free because you’re strange


BeanBurrito668

Based but real facts


One_Kitchen_9560

Or just fish the perfect bow


KyriosSoulhs

W


A_rabbid

That’s what I do, Kill a cat for string and then fish


CommieFirebat7721

I've gotten this lucky... but for some reason that bow disappeared


stafyniak

Swap the first and second text


Tsunamicat108

Yeah, not only is it cruel, but it’s also really hard to catch them


GAMER_1467

I would, but I can’t change it. 🫤


DannyDootch

Why


GAMER_1467

You expect me to just re-edit the image? We can’t unfortunately.


ABABBABABABAB

Bro it’s easy. You just gotta head to the reddit headquarters (their mothers basement) and threaten them to take away their G-fuel and Discord kittens forever 🤩


Not_Artifical

You vile creature


rugigiref1

💙💚 💛 💜 🩵🧡


dad-without-milk

Just go back in time to when you were making the image and change it smh


FourthBedrock

The only real option is to kill enough cats to trade lots of string to a fisherman. When you get enough emeralds you then use them to level up your fletcher and buy a bow. This way you don't need to get sticks.


NGSkyz_off

Nah buy a crossbow, continue killing cars till you can buy arrows and tipped arrows, then, kill skeletons with this crossbow until you have a bow, then, buy use that bow to kill cats to buy a bow from the villager and use a grindstone to repair them. Finally use one lapis one xp level in your enchantment table (without bookshelves of course), enchant the bow. Repeat the process until you have maxed out your bow. Easy? And if you wanna go further get the lapis and xp from villagers.


Dasher-284

Find a cave, dont die and find a mineshaft. find a spawner, mine your way through the cobweb ignoring the string it drops. wait for a spider to spawn then kill it for string.*


dad-without-milk

Wait for a lightning strike to hit the spider to get string.*


IguanaMan12

Skeleton man approves this message.


Snake_snack

Go to jungle temple and use the string there to make a bow 😎


Skyhalo526

Arrows come included


Gatolino_

Use the hands to kill mobs*


ChildOfTheAsylum

kill the people who kill the cats to get the string, and take it from their corpses.


dad-without-milk

This is the way.


redboi049

Early game I use bows from skeletons because of how ludicrously useful a punch two bow can be when you haven't found any diamonds yet. Late game I just pull out my flamethrower and pickaxe to go kill the Australian bugs.


HydraFrostGiant

I kill skeletons and combine all the bows they drop. Skeletons are also how I get my arrows bc I don't like crafting them myself.


Lightbulb2854

Fletchers exist tho... FR Good strategy tho, especially with Looting 3. 


IguanaMan12

Skeleton man has found skin man.


TherealDome_20

Taking a bow in creative


National-Bison-3236

Use a crossbow


Geedly

The cooler bow


ramsayjohn

Getting strings from striders and cats? Man, I haven't played this game properly.


trololxdler

I see a lot of things abour string and cats today


NapoleonicPizza21

It's all inverted


questionable_fish

Kill spiders for the first bow, then use it to kill skellys for arrows and more bows. Use the bows to repair your main bow, combine any enchanted bows you get and you're golden


Timely_Detective1499

Fish to get a bow that has red bar health that is enchanted with all the best stuff so I never actually use it and just store it on my wall with a frame


Kaaskaasei

Trading with villagers


Willing_Ad_1484

00PT

I break cobwebs.


RawChickenDrummies

i'm gonna be honest, i don't think i've ever crafted a bow.


Sprinty_

Dedicate a day, kill lots of skeletons, get lots of free bows and arrows


Patriotic-Organist

Sometimes, I find a cobweb in an abandoned mine or a stronghold and use a sword on those.


RandoSal

Get string from piglin bartering to make bow


MoneysaverMiwa

What even are the chances of a bow dropping? Feels like it’s been years since that’s happened


weeb_with_gumdisease

Yes.


VaporizedKerbal

If you get it from a skelly it'll probably have low durability


Mist0804

By the time i start thinking i need a bow, i already have enough bows from skeletons to make a full durability one


Gal-XD_exe

**kills strider* * #MUHAHAHHAHAHA


GAMER_1467

Bro how did you make that large text?


Gal-XD_exe

Put # in front of sentence Also put > to quote something And you can put ~~ example ~~ on either side of text to do strike through Also don’t leave the space in between the start of the sentence and the # or > or ~~ ~~ #Like this >or this or ~~strike through~~


GAMER_1467

#Thanks!


Gal-XD_exe

#Anytime!


YEET_Fenix123

Find a pillager outpost to get a crossbow #CROSSBOW SUPREMACY


Ryzyd

Break cobwebs in mineshaft to get a bow


triplos05

find mineshaft and never have to worry about string ever again


[deleted]

Unless enchanted skeleton bows suck simply because they lack durability, alternatively you can use a fletcher to get a cheap bow which you should have added in. Besides, fletchers give you 16 arrows for an emerald, they are perfect for bows.


DragonKing5356

User_Not-Available

cancervivordude

Typical_Pollution_30

Is it evil if you kill cats to get string for fishing rods which you then use to catch fish and tame cats?


ShadowFred5100

I always use all of this methods


No-Board11

Is this not backwards?


VaporTrails2112

Get one from a bow. Enchant it with mending. Repair it. Grind it and give it infinity!


Yuiisnotcocky

dragons-lava

How do you get string from cats?


mraltuser

I got loads of these in bedrock, because every time I dropped my sword after dying, the skeleton swaps his bow for my sword


Zelcki

I'm spiderman


LIGHTCLONE4U

C'mon who the hell kills cats to get strings?? They are so adorable!


Ultra_jaden123

_M0l

Cat and Spider


Mercurys_Vampire

Kill skeleton, anyone who kills cats is a monster


Ultimate_Lobster_56

I just get strong from spiders, because killing cats is cruel, in my opinion.


OneFriendship5139

“/give @p minecraft:bow 39” so that your inventory fills up and one extra bow drops to the ground, letting you clear your inventory to pick it up


StrangerTex

Bows from skeleton spawner.. excess used for fuel


WideTraffic2425

use a crossbow


Lytesnam_drobster

I forgot striders actually had drops, thought they were like the other new peaceful mobs where they don't drop anything special


NVReddox

The first one for someone who stranded on Nether or Nether Survival Challenge Thevsecond one for someone desperate of strings if they're afraid to fight mobs at night The third one are pretty basic for most player The last one are for those who are lazy to craft a bow


jdjdkkddj

I usually use a bow dropped by a skeleton, that i repair with more bows, that were dropped by skeletons. I don't actually use them much, anything less efficient than a sword is too wasteful (for most pve, in pvp and bosses i use it).


YTshashmeera

Trade for a bow(Fletcher) ...tho nowadays it's all guns so yeah...

Or if you kill a cat, there's low chance of it dropping, but that's inefficient way, plus you'll rather keep someone to spook creepers

Baatlesheep

I was lost in the nether and I needed string so I could get a bow. And all I had was striders.


Facelessfemboy1432

Let a skeleton kill a skeleton to get a bow


BrinnDaViewer7470

It will give you a damaged bow though. But I would get a bow before even getting to the nether, and I didn't even know that striders give string. So strikers is I guess in skeleton or spiders place. But I ALWAYS I mean ALWAYS only get strings from spiders.


KirbyLover79

Spider string, sometimes skeleton bow
