Raid a soul sand valley, time the drag, then build a bubble lift.

Blue fire, drifting ghasts and sand that drags at your boots. The Wither's altar needs it, so grab it fast.

What you’ll build

Scout a soul sand valley with your teammate, dig the blocks the Wither's altar needs and time how much the sand slows you down. Get out fast, stash your haul, then build a bubble lift that shoots you up a glass tube to a lookout deck.

Finish line: Your altar chest is full of soul sand, your sprint test is timed and your bubble lift works.

Bonus challenge: Build a second tube with magma at the bottom for a fast drop down. Time the up trip and the down trip. Which is quicker?

You’ll need

  • A shovel
  • A bow
  • Glass
  • A water bucket
  • A timer
  • A family member or friend

You choose

  • The heist's name
  • Spare blocks I'll grab
  • Where my bubble lift goes at base

Stuck?

  • Build the bubble lift in the Overworld. Water can't be placed in the Nether.
  • Every block of the lift needs a water source, not flowing water, all the way up.
  • Watch the valley edge for ghasts and skeletons before stepping in.
