Minecraft 1.11: The most important innovations at a glance

With the latest Minecraft version 1.11, the developers of Mojang are adding a number of interesting new features to the cult game. We have put together the four most important innovations for you in this practical tip.

Minecraft 1.11: Llamas

• The Lama is a peaceful NPC. It is the 19th animal that was added to the game. Llamas are mainly found in mountain areas and savannas.
• Llamas have 22 life points. When they die, they drop 0 to 2 leathers.
• You can tame llamas just like horses. You have to ride the cattle until they no longer shed you. Once you've tamed it, you can ride it, but you can't steer it.
• In addition, you can equip the animal with a carpet and a chest. The carpet is only for decoration. With the chest, the llama can offer 3 to 15 slots of inventory.

Minecraft 1.11: treasure maps

• The new treasure maps lead you to secret places in the Minecraft world. There are the forest treasure map and the ocean treasure map.
• You can get both cards when trading with villagers. Go to the cartographer (white coat). You must do at least three deals with this before offering you a treasure map.
• Forest treasure map: This guides you to the so-called forest estate. This is a huge building made of black wood and is guarded by magicians and servants.
• Ocean Treasure Map: This leads you into the depths of the sea to the ocean monument. To get to the treasures in the temple, which mainly consists of prism blocks, you have to pass the floating monsters - the guards - who guard the monument.

Minecraft 1.11: Observer

• The observer always monitors the block in front of him. If this changes or disappears, a redstone signal is triggered.
• To make an observer, you needed a workbench. Put 3 quarry stones in each of the top and bottom rows. Fill the middle row with 2 redstone and 1 nether quartz.

Minecraft 1.11: Shulkerkisten

• A Shulkerkiste has the same properties as a conventional chest. It offers 27 slots for storing items.
• The special thing about the box is that the content is not dropped when you dismantle it. All items are retained. When you place the box, you can access all of the contents again.
• The crafting recipe for a Shulkerkiste is: one Shulker bowl at the top and one at the bottom and one chest in the middle.
• You get the Shulker bowls for the recipe if you find and destroy Shulker in the end. This monster happens to drop between 0 and 1 school cups.
