All new features in Minecraft 1.21.100.23 preview explained
Image via Mojang Minecraft has recently confirmed its new and third game drop, 1.21.100.23, to be added later this year. Currently the developers are in the experimental phase where they have introduced a suite of experimental features, which aim to enhance the mechanics and gameplay experience of the players. The new experimental features include new mobs, recipes, and mechanics focused on copper. The update is currently available only for Bedrock Edition. This article previews all the features to come in Minecraft 1.21.100.23 version. All major features are coming in the Minecraft 1.21.100.23 update . Here are the following experimental features that are confirmed by Minecraft: 1. Copper Golem As copper is the main focus item for this game drop, Minecraft now has introduced Copper Golem, a player-made mob crafted with copper blocks and carved pumpkins. The main function of the Copper Golem is to transport items that players drop in the copper chest into the normal chest (item sorting). Upon killing one Copper Golem, it will drop 1–3 copper ingots. 2. Copper Chest It is a new block that will only appear when a player summons a Copper Golem. When players drop items into a Copper Chest, the Copper Golem automatically picks them up and sorts them in the nearby chest. Copper chests have 2 types of appearance: waxed and oxidized variants. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Honda SP125: Now with More Power & Style Honda Learn More Undo Copper Chests can be crafted using a Chest and Copper Ingots. 3. Copper Tools Minecraft has introduced copper tools, which are a minor update from stone tools. These tools are introduced with the motive to help early-stage players. Players can now craft tools, weapons, and armor from copper. The copper armor is a great choice, as it will help players save iron in the early stage, and it is better than leather armor. Here are all the tools, weapons, and armor that players can craft: Copper Axe Copper Hoe Copper Pickaxe Copper Shovel Copper Sword Copper Armor Copper Helmet Copper Chest plate Copper Leggings Copper Boots 4. Technical and Parity Updates Here are the following technical and bug fix adjustments: Hotbar can always be hit on any touch device. The detection area matches the texture even if you have custom controls enabled. Fixed faces of non-full blocks (e.g., cakes or trapdoors) having an unnatural ambient occlusion applied to them in some neighboring block configurations. Glowing text on signs no longer gets overly bright when looked at directly in Vibrant Visuals. Fixed an issue where custom armor disabled knockback on some platforms. Fixed a bug that caused Happy Ghast to occasionally suffocate when faced against a wall. Boats no longer play step sounds when on the ground. Air friction is now only applied to boats when they are leashed. Boats are still prevented from orbiting the player when leashed. Boats once again retain momentum when moving off ledges. Fixed a bug where the Happy Ghast riding sound would sometimes play in the loading screen. Fixed a bug where both Ghast and Happy Ghast ambient sounds would not be audible further than 16 blocks away from the player Ghast ambient sound is now audible within 80 blocks. Happy Ghast ambient sound is now audible within 64 blocks. Leashed mobs can now be pulled into boats, minecarts, and other rideable entities if the leash is slackened when close to those entities. Leashed mobs will now automatically dismount their vehicle if the leash is stretched far enough. These are all the features under the experimental phase of the Minecraft 1.21.100.23 update.

Copper Golem in Minecraft: Uses, crafting recipe, features, and more
Image via Mojang Minecraft has recently announced their new Fall Drop 3 2025, where now players can craft many more things with copper, like tools, armor, golems, and many more. The new update is limited to Bedrock and will not be featured in Java Edition. The copper golem is now available in the experimental version of Minecraft Bedrock Edition, where players can try out the new copper golem. This article outlines a complete guide on the Copper Golem, how players can craft it, its uses, features, and more information that will help players have a better understanding of the new mob. Ultimate Copper Golem guide for Minecraft Currently the Copper Golem is only available as an experimental feature in the game on the Bedrock Edition of Minecraft, which means players cannot experience it in the default version of the game. Copper Golem will be released as part of the third game drop in 2025, an upcoming update that is purely focused on copper. Crafting recipe for Copper Golem Image via Mojang Copper Golems do not spawn naturally like Iron Golems do in Minecraft; players have to craft one in order to obtain it. To craft a Copper Golem, players first need to mine copper blocks with a stone pickaxe. The easiest way to find copper veins is to search open caves. Copper veins are very easily found in the game, and they look like grey stones with orange and greenish specks. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Players need at least nine raw copper pieces to make one copper block, but before that, players have to smelt this raw copper in a furnace, which will convert them into ingots. Placing 9 ingots in the crafting table will give one copper block. Then players need one carved pumpkin, which they can locate in the wilds, usually found in the grassy biome. Once you find a pumpkin block, use the shears to turn it into a carved pumpkin. Then place the Copper Block below and the Carved Pumpkin above it, which will spawn a Copper Golem. If you notice, doing so will not only spawn a Copper Golem, but also the Copper Block will transform into a Copper Chest. This Copper Chest is linked with the Copper Golem's Task. Uses of Copper Golem Image via Mojang Copper Golem is a peaceful mob that helps players automatically store and sort items. Yes, you heard it right. The copper golem functions as a little housekeeper in Minecraft. When players drop any item in the Copper Chest beside the Copper Golem, the mob picks up the item from the copper chest and transfers it into the strong wooden chest. The golem will find a chest that has the similar item and transfer it there; if not found, then it will drop the item into a new chest. The golem can pick 16 stacks at once and sort them. How to change Copper Golem's color Image via Mojang As we know, an unwaxed copper item over time will oxidize and turn into a green-blueish color. Similarly, an unwaxed Copper Golem will turn into a green-blueish color over time. If you want your golem to stay reddish-brown, then you can use honeycomb on the golem, which will not let it oxidize. Through the above guide, players can now craft their own Copper Golem and take advantage of its ability to store and sort items.

Copper Golem vs Iron Golem: Which is better in Minecraft?
Image via Mojang Minecraft has now officially announced the new Copper Golem for the game, which players can craft. With this, the game will now soon have three different types of golems. Initially the copper golem was introduced as a mob vote candidate that lost to allay, and now the copper golem is making its way back to the game. The Copper Golem will soon be released with the fall game drop of Minecraft. Difference between Iron Golem and Copper Golem The very basic difference between the Copper Golem and the Iron Golem is the appearance; both golems look different and also have various purposes to serve. The only thing they have in common is that they help players to survive in the game. Key difference between Iron and Copper Golems: 1. Crafting recipe: Image via Mojang Iron Golem: To craft an Iron Golem, players need to place 4 iron blocks, 1 on the ground and 3 horizontally placed on top of it. Then players need to place a pumpkin mask on top and in the middle of the iron blocks. Apart from this, iron golems also can spawn naturally when there are villagers nearby; they spawn to protect these villagers from mobs. Copper Golem: Like iron golems, the Copper Golems cannot naturally spawn; they can only be crafted by players. In order to create a Copper Golem player, you need to place a copper block onto the ground and place a pumpkin mask above it. 2. Purpose of both the Golems: Iron Golem : The sole purpose of the Iron Golem is to protect the players and villagers in Minecraft from various kinds of mobs attacking. But players need to understand that the witches who were naturally spawned will not protect them and will only protect the villagers. For personal protection, the Iron Golem needs to be crafted by players. Copper Golem : It is a new mob that will soon be released to Minecraft. The Copper Golem is a very peaceful mob, and the sole purpose of the Copper Golem is to sort items that players drop in the copper chest. When players drop random items in a copper chest, the Copper Golem picks those items up, up to 16 stacks at a time, and transfers them to either empty chests or chests containing similar items. 3. Appearance: Both the Golems are different in appearance. Since the Copper Golem is only made with a single block, it naturally looks quite small and stubby, while on the other hand, the Iron Golem has a huge appearance. The Copper Golem has a glowing yellow light and a lightning rod on its head. These were the basic differences between Copper and Iron Golems, but still, both have a single purpose of helping the players.

Latest Clash Royale leaks hint at new Spirit Empress Champion, Card Evolution, and more - Everything you need to know
Spirit Empress Champion in Clash Royale (Image via Supercell) Clash Royale's vibrant community has received a fresh crate of leaks: the arrival of a new champion, the Spirit Empress, and a potential evolution for the iconic Golem card. Here's a detailed look at what's surfaced so far, what's credible, and what these additions could mean for the game. Clash Royale community speculates on the Spirit Empress: The New Champion The Spirit Empress is rumored to be the next champion card, with multiple leaks and creator previews pointing toward an imminent release. Here's what is currently known: - Elixir Cost and Role: The Spirit Empress is expected to be a 6-elixir champion, which positions her as one of the more expensive champions, potentially rivaling the Monk and Mighty Miner in terms of cost and battlefield impact. Some are even speculating that this card might cost three elixir. - Alternate Name: Some leaks refer to her as the Dragon Rider, though it's unclear if this is a working title or a separate mechanic. - Mechanics and Rarity: There is speculation that the Spirit Empress may introduce a new card rank or mechanic, possibly even a new "Hero" rarity above champions, though most community voices hope she remains a traditional champion to avoid power creep and complexity. New Hero Card: Spirit Empress - Official Hints: Content creators with ties to Supercell have showcased previews of the proposed Champion on a shirt that the received with a gift box from the devs, reinforcing the legitimacy of the leak. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Some users claim to have seen official posts on Clash Royale's Instagram, lending further credibility to the rumors. - Community Reaction: The community is excited but cautious, especially given the balance implications of a high-cost champion. There is hope that her introduction will help diversify the meta and potentially counter dominant decks like Boss Bandit. Is the Golem Evolution coming to Clash Royale? While the Spirit Empress has taken center stage, there is also mounting speculation about an evolution for the Golem card: - Evolution Teasers: Recent teasers on the official Clash Royale X account suggest that Golem may soon receive an evolution, following the trend of other classic cards receiving powerful upgrades. Evolutions typically grant cards new abilities or stats, shaking up established strategies. They posted a picture of a Canon with a 'Sneaky Golem' inside. This could either be hinting at a Golem Evo or the devs could be pklaying along the recently trending 'Sneaky Golem' memes. - Gameplay Impact: Evolved cards have historically had a significant impact on the meta. For example, evolved skeletons and bats have made it much harder to defend against certain pushes, and a Golem evolution could similarly redefine beatdown strategies. - Meta Implications: If Golem receives an evolution, expect a surge in Golem-based decks and new counterplay dynamics, especially if the evolution grants it additional effects on death or while attacking. Summary Table: Spirit Empress vs. Golem Evolution Feature Spirit Empress (Leaked) Golem Evolution (Speculated) Card Type Champion Evolution of existing card Elixir Cost 6 8 (base Golem cost) Mechanic Possible new ability/rarity Enhanced stats/abilities Status Multiple credible leaks Strong community speculation Meta Impact High (if released as champion) High (could revitalize beatdown) Also read: Best Clash Royale Decks for the Magical Trio Event The leaks surrounding the Spirit Empress and a possible Golem evolution signal a major shake-up for Clash Royale in the near future. While the Spirit Empress appears to be on the verge of official release, with credible leaks and creator previews supporting her arrival, the Golem evolution remains speculative but highly anticipated. Both additions have the potential to significantly alter the game's meta, offering fresh strategies and challenges for players at all levels.

How to complete The Word is Silent quest in Tainted Grail The Fall of Avalon
(Image via Awaken Realms) Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon transfers the players into the grim world, where the dark secrets fester. Amidst the quests, The Word is Silent stands out as crucial yet easily missed. Found quite early in the game, the mission tasks you to expose the atrocities of the Red Priest, beginning with the single damned letter that's discovered on the desolate shore. Here is how you can find evidence, track the right person, and ensure that the truth does not remain buried. Find Whistleblower evidence in The Word is Silent quest The Word is Silent Quest Guide In Tainted Grail Fall of Avalon Your journey begins during the prologue of the game on Asylum Island. Once you defeat Golem boss and get back to the beach, head north right along the shoreline. Ensure to keep a sharp eye out for any wreckage of the small boat that sits in shallow water. It is your key landmark. From the wreck, look carefully to your right. Tucked right within the narrow rocky alcove is the body of the Red Priest, almost hidden from view. At his feet rests an important Letter to the Prior. Interact with the letter and read it to officially begin The Word is Silent quest. Missing the alcove would mean you miss the quest completely (there is no way back to the island) before you leave the island. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Our one of a kind Patented Cold Water Extraction Process Superior Ginseng Undo So, be sharp. Deliver evidence to Brother Riagan As you progress in Tainted Grail The Fall of Avalon through the main story, reach a fortress called The Horns of the South, the stronghold of the Keeper. As you get inside the Keep, ascend the stairs ahead of the main entrance. The destination is a garden located on the east. Here, during the daylight hours, you can find Brother Riagan, who is seated on the bench. Once you reach them, initiate the conversation with him. Make sure you select the dialogue options—Thank you, I've already been blessed. With tongs, pincers, fire.../You're a Red Priest. You know what I mean/Here's your proof. Is this enough? These dialogue choices challenge the Red Priests' actions. They hint at atrocities committed on the Asylum Island. When you are promoted, present Brother Riagan's Letter to the Prior as proof of corruption in the church. To hand him the letter is the core action for the stage. Lead a final confrontation to complete the quest Just handing over the letter to Brother Riagan will not be enough. He needs time to process the damning evidence. Once you hand him the letter, wait for an entire day before you talk to him again. Your final conversation will conclude The Word is Silent quest. With it, Brother Riagan will finally denounce the church and will reward you 75 XP for exposing the truth. If you possess Father Vaughan's Notes from Unforgettable Quest (a related quest), give them to Riagan when you have a final talk with him. It will offer you some additional experience bonus and a deeper narrative resolution. Though the quest is short, it does expose some dark secrets of the game, only if you know where to look. So, stay sharp and do not let the lies of the priest go unchallenged.
