Hope you all enjoy the video! I had a lot of fun making it. I see a lot of comments about Vault Hunters Single Player series - i have plans to get the next episode out shortly! hopefully this week!

What if you retextured diorite to make it green iskallium bricks, and then use it in all of your builds to confuse the other hermits :3

We need the return of iskallman, him and hotguy would be unstoppable

In 1.20 they added universal dyeing which means you can trade for colored terracotta and redye it. You don't need non-colorred terracotta anymore.

I'm so glad Iskall and Stress are back and doing things together aswell. Brings back memories.

2 iskall videos in quick succession? We eating good this week

The carpet-pit trick should work to keep them all working hard

Nice to see Iskall back on hermitcraft, can't wait to see what he gets up to.

If you have to dig out any other lush caves remember that you can smelt clay blocks into plain terracotta

I've been in such a bad depression for months and honestly having you back on hermitcraft and hearing the words "of doom" made my whole day. I'm so so glad your back man. Hermitcraft just isn't tge same with out you and Stress. ❤

I'm soo happy he is back working on the cave of DOOM!

The cave looks so much better with the terraforming! You did such a nice job!

Feels so good having you back iskall 🎉

20 ways to fail ideas: 1) slot machines and other casino games 2) the thing from squid games with the tiles 3) a game where you lock in a colour and then run a machine which chooses a random colour. Simply if it is the same with the one you choose you win!

I loved the B-roll ending! It's fun to see before and after on terraforming projects :D

It's so good to hear you enjoying your return to the HermitCraft server! I'm sure I speak for a lot of your audience that we miss your uploads!

the best part of the buttercups is bringing iskall back (I know he was probably planning to come back but my headcannon is that the covering of the perimeter was just so much fun that iskall regained his passion for the server)

Yes your cave is well and truely A MONSTROSITY

who knew placing thousands of dirt blocks was what iskall needed to get back into hermitcraft haha

FINALLY HES BACK AND ON A ROLL

Just something i noticed with "20 ways to fail" is alot of the games right now are all focused on the idea of falling off. I think it would be go to try and incorporate other ways to fail, otherwise it will just be "20 ways to fall". So things like random chance of explosion, or burning, maybe you could do something like a slime block launching them up or out of the game. Either way this seems like a fun project and loving having you and stress back! Keep up the good work!

I know it takes iskall hours to complete his builds but they always end up awesome. I can totally get why its much harder to build live, but his builds are the one thing missing from his Vault Hunters streams imo.

I’m going to watch this knowing full well it’ll send me into the Minecraft spiral again

* new iskall video comes out * Me: it's gonna be a good day

Eyyyy, another guy who builds in a cave instead of making stuff above ground. Men in holes in the ground. I love it.

I just came back and there's a new iskall video, is there anything better than that.

You could add double layered carpet or rails to prevent them from naturally path finding out. Maybe even have a minecart chest filled with clay balls for trading so it doesn’t seem so out of place

Iskall: my base feels much more under control now! In the meantime his family members: *go rogue all around the base, totally not in control*

Maybe you could put a line of double stacked carpets at the entrance to the workshop of doom to keep the villagers from escaping

I just watched the last episode, looked for something to watch next, and now this uploaded! :D

Stress: "You won the competition..." Iskall: "I mean, there are no failures... I mean, YES."

"It's better to just do" -Iskall85 So true. I often find it's hard to get going, to get inspired. Sometime you just gotta start building and see what happens. Just remember, every block you place is a block you can remove.

I love the cave base. I was really excited for it when the season started and it's looking really cool. A completely different feel from xB's cave which is what's so great about Minecraft. So glad to have you back Iskall.

Stress was surprised about the dangling llama not breaking the lead, she should see zedaphs mobmobile

I love the little whistling during your cowboy standoff with stress lol. It's so good to have you back & enjoying vanilla / HC 💚✨

It is my personal favourite comeback of the year... Iskallman on HC9 ❤. Good to see you in your awesome cave!

Enjoying watching you develop your base! I just found my first lush cavern a couple days ago (I am also doing some catching up!) and it’s so fun to see your plans (and flow) come together.

"Oh, it's Buck again." Villagers, can and can't live without them. Looks awesome, both the games and the cavern! And welcome back! Stay frosty!

oh i loved the before after bit! that was so cool! and a great way to see how much detail went into the build!

The "Before-and-After" B-roll at the end was a nice touch. Great episode, Iskall

Ive really missed your videos! I know you are probably working really hard on vault hunters development, but for all of us here on the YT, your videos are a gift! I'd love to see more consistent uploads for hermit craft and your personal vault hunters series! also the shaders looks fantastic you should def play with it on all the time!

:D iskall we've missed u so much, its nice to hear ur smile again 😆now dont disappear on us like that again! had us worried for like 8months!

I’ve had a rough night dealing with some health stuff, and this made my night much better, it allowed me to smile and laugh and just get away for a little bit.

Stress's game should be called Hailfire (cause ice and arrows, it'd make even more sense if you replaced the arrows with snowballs)

I just love your content, i can't say how happy i am that you are back! Hope to see more vault hunters as well, but remember to take your time!

Stalagmites take a lot of might (strength) to grow up from the ground, and stalagtites have to hang on very tight so they don't fall. Stal ag tite, stal ag mite. I hope it helps, Iskall! Even though I must admit the way you use logic to create English words is one part of the joy of watching your videos.

i'm loving how your cave base looks! you're doing a great job cleaning it up! and i really really love the western carnival games it's so great

I am so happy to hear iskall again

Bro I figured you'd disappear for another 3 months without saying anything. How nice to see you back:)

her laughter brought me back to the very beginning of Minecraft when a friend of mine did a treasure hunt, i laughed like that for 3 hours straight! great video

If you ring a bell near the villagers they will run back to their beds. It's like a danger warning that makes them run and hide in their "house" (which is normally where their bed is at). Just make sure there's no other bed they could possibly get to that they might think is theirs or they might bolt off after it instead. You might have to just give up on not locking the villagers away. My brothers and I wanted to have an village with free roaming villagers instead of locking them up. The whole village was walled off and lit up. Potentially dangerous areas where blocked off. Nothing was placed right next to the wall so they couldn't get over it. Still villagers kept disappearing. (I still don't know how they were killing themselves.) After like the third round of replacing missing villagers we just gave up and locked them in their houses. Villagers are just too dumb to live.

Iskall: "honeymoon phase of HC" Also Iskall: "New server smell" Iskall be out there sniffing his SO... and somehow I'm not surprised that a hermit would do this.

free-roaming villagers sure is the greatest threat to the sanity of all minecraft players xD The mason-area is looking great and I loved the before and after-shot, stunning :3

i really enjoyed the editing when you popped the different parts of the interior into the room!

I am really glad that you are back - and in such a happy mood! Love you and your content 🍀

27:10 You gotta be able to fly though those eye holes into secret tiki-stressmonster-worship-room!

I miss the iconic "Hello" 0:00

You may want to consider triple carpet, or rails across the doorway to your workshop of doom to keep villagers in (and if necessary, also hostile mobs out), or minimally add a bell inside the workshop to help limit the amount of villager wandering (although this doesn't solve the morning wandering that they do before "work", only the afternoon wandering until bed).

If you need dripstone for the vault alter you know where it is (I know it’s not vh)

welcome home Iskall man, I'm sure plenty of folk have already suggested using the double carpet trick or even a line of rails in front of the stairs at the workshop entrance to keep the villagers from fleeing. My last build I wanted villagers to live in specific buildings in my city I was building and used both those tricks as methods to keep them in line. Seems that may be a good solution here for you also. Anyway, glad to see you back and enjoying yourself.

i love the cave-a-forming!! it looks so much like a vault and fits you so well!!! glad to see you back man :]

The before and afters were amazing. Your success-buildimg bridge was also amazing. Looking forward to how your base will continue to grow.

Awesome Episode! Love the progress! Also very cool that you got your Mojo for Hermitcraft back :) Makes me very happy to see you full of Joy making your base and the game! With some smart placed carpets and rails, you could maybe contain the villager pathfinding to the one shelf only :)

Great to see you back. And loved the before and after edit in the last episode.

I think you should go with _speluncaforming_ for your cave-shaping. Although we do have the latin word _caverna_ for caves, _spelunca_ is an equally good synonym, and it sounds much more fun. Also, when you shorten _caverna_ to _cave_ or _cavea,_ that actually means "be careful" and "enclosure" in latin, so it would probably be somewhat confusing to you average Roman. Speluncaforming is absolutely the better option 🙂

That interior editing at 9:01 was very satisfying!

Iskal hitting that grind button I see. Nais

The pre- and post-episode part at the end was so nice!

I’m really happy to see you back in action on the hermitcraft server!

Sherif themed building with 9 targets. Only one target wins and u get a random amount of arrows to fire (like 2-5 maybe) and u have to hit the right target

Iskall, what a comeback! I’m glad you’re having fun because you are such a pleasure to watch. You’ve changed up your editing style quite noticeably and I think it’s great! It’s not better or worse than previous because I enjoyed that as well. This is just different and it’s cool to see you changing things up. Your building is as beautiful as ever. Love love love the dramatic before and after B-roll! And seeing you and Stress work together on 20 Ways to Fail is like reuniting with an old friend. It’s warm and familiar with nostalgia overload as you make new memories.

so happy to hear you're having fun and feeling happy playing on the server again!! obviously i've missed your Hermitcraft content, but it's more important that you're doing good, and now there's both haha wish u the best onward!! :D)) also, fellow Iskall-enjoyers, dont miss the lil "post-credits scene" at the end of the video! ;)))

Glad to see you back and enjoying Hermitcraft again iskall

I’m glad to see you’re back on the server Iskall!! I hope that the things that you’ve been dealing with in your personal life has been getting better!

i love when the swedish comes out xD it's so nice to see you back and see you enjoy being on the server!

Iskall: "As I was saying..." Stressmonster: "(listening attentively for a magnificent input)" Beautiful! You guys made my day

(Sniffs) "...new server smell...", "cavescaping", "factorial area", "workshop-y"... I'm seven minutes in to this video and I'm grinning ear-to-ear. Oh how I have missed me some Iskall85 on Hermitcraft. 🤩

your videos always make me feel so relaxed. i'm so glad you're back on the server

Loved the before and after!! Great success!

I love the B-roll idea. Sometimes you forget what an area looked like before you started working on it. Game idea: With HotGuy on the server you should have a parkour course where you have to shoot targets to keep the platforms up. It would be a nice timed skill based game.

The cave is looking great! And I’m loving the 20 ways to fail idea. Can’t wait to see where it goes

Thank you for giving Hermitcraft and your beautiful cave another chance! So happy to see you back! ❤

Game idea: there is a long tunnel that you run down and at the end in a goose that will randomly drop a golden egg or diorite bird poop and if you get a golden egg you have to run back before something gets you.

loving the progress on the base, is starting to feel more homie!!

Its nice to see more episodes, thank you Iskall

nice to see u back on hc. cave is looking fantastic, love it!

Really enjoyed having b-roll and liked the way you presented it!

the workshop and the surrounding area turned out so well!! it's super cozy-looking :D

Glad to see you back on the Hermitcraft server!

Welcome back I'm so glad to see your return and seeing how your enjoying your return to hermitcraft

All of this looks AWESOME

That interior building clip sequence was my favorite thing ever #nevereverleaving

Great video, loved the b-roll at the end!

So glad you’re back😊

The base is looking very nice. I'm glad you walled off the enormous cave part, definitely more manageable and homey. 💕

lovely entertaining videos, thank u iskall :)

I'm loving having Iskall back to "vanilla", and the editing style is super enjoyable to me. Thank you, Iskall!!

So, SO glad to see you back on the Hermitcraft server. I have little interest for modded Minecraft but really enjoy your play style so seeing you back here is quite the treat. Hope you have a great time and will want to come back more often.

I ADORE you two together. More of this please!!

Glad to have you back!!! Can’t believe I missed the last upload
