## Required Materials to Barter with a Piglin

In Minecraft, these are the materials you need to barter with a piglin:

**TIP:** You only need one piece of golden armor to safely barter with a piglin. You don't need them all!

## Steps to Barter with a Piglin

### 1. Wear Golden Armor

Piglins are naturally Hostile mobs that will attack you. But if you are wearing any golden armor, they will become Neutral and won't attack you (*unless you provoke them*).

So make sure you are wearing at least one piece of golden armor. You can choose from: golden helmet, golden chestplate, golden leggings or golden boots.

In this example, we will wear a golden helmet to keep piglins from attacking while bartering.

### 2. Find a Piglin

Next, you need to find a piglin. Piglins can be found in the Crimson Forest biome or in the Bastion Remnant, both of which are in the Nether dimension.

#### Bastion Remnant

This is what a piglin looks like:

If you are having trouble finding a piglin, you can summon a piglin using a cheat or you can use a spawn egg.

### 3. Throw (*or use)* the Gold Ingot

To start the bartering process, throw a gold ingot on the ground next to the piglin (*you can also "use" the gold ingot on the piglin to initiate the bartering process*).

### 4. Piglin will Examine the Gold Ingot

The piglin will turn around and pick up the gold ingot and examine it for a few seconds.

### 5. Piglin will Throw Back an Item

Once the piglin accepts the gold ingot, it will throw back another item in exchange and the bartering process is done.

In this example, we got boots enchanted with Soul Speed!

**TIP:** You can barter more than once with a piglin, but you have to wait for the piglin to finish examining the gold ingot first.

### 6. Bartering Party!

The bartering process will attract more piglins. So keep throwing gold ingot and create a bartering party!

Congratulations, you just learned how to barter with a piglin in Minecraft!

Every once in a while, this pollen will land on your crops and green stars will appear over the plants. These plants are being fertilized and will grow larger (just like when you use bone meal), in effect, speeding up the growing process.

Congratulations, you just learned how to fertilize crops with bees in Minecraft!

How to Use a Compass

This Minecraft tutorial explains how to use a compass with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.

In Minecraft, you can use a compass when you get lost and need to find your way back to your World spawn point. Let's explore how to use a compass.

## Required Materials

In Minecraft, these are the required materials to use a compass:

## Background

It is quite easy to wander off and get lost in Minecraft. You might be looking for villages, attacking mobs, or gathering materials. When you get lost, how do you find your way back? That's easy. You use a compass to help guide you.

A compass is a useful tool in the game that points to the World spawn point when you are in the Overworld. The World spawn point is the location where you spawned when you first created the World. In the Nether and the End, the compass needle will spin and you will need to use a Lodestone Compass instead to guide you in these dimensions.

So before you go venturing out in the Overworld,  add a compass to your inventory and you can always find your way back to the World spawn point.

**NOTE:** When you sleep in a bed, your **personal spawn point** is reset, HOWEVER, the compass will still point to the **World spawn point**. The World spawn point is the location where you spawned when you first created your Minecraft World.

## How to Use a Compass to find your World Spawn Point

It is very easy to use a compass. Just add the compass to your hotbar. Once the compass is in your hotbar, you will see the red compass arrow point to the direction of the World spawn point.

Turn so that the arrow is pointing up and begin walking in that direction. Soon, you will see familiar surroundings as the compass leads you back to the World spawn point.

Congratulations, you just learned how to use a compass in Minecraft.

## Other Compasses

You can make other compasses in Minecraft such as:

How to Make a Colored Sign (Bedrock)

This Minecraft tutorial explains how to make a colored sign in Minecraft Bedrock Edition (PE, Win10, Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch) with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.

In Minecraft Bedrock Edition, you can make a sign that has different colors of text. Let's explore how to make a colored sign.

Watch a video to learn how

## Required Materials to make a Colored Sign

In Minecraft, these are the materials you can use to make a colored sign:

**TIP:** This method of setting the text color for a sign only works in Bedrock Edition.

## Steps to Make a Colored Sign in Bedrock Edition

### 1. Place a Sign

In Minecraft Bedrock Edition, you can only set the color of the text in the sign when you initially place the sign. So start by placing a sign. In this tutorial, we will place a Spruce sign.

Once you place the sign, Minecraft will allow you to enter the text for the sign. You will see a sign (like below) appear with a blinking cursor:

### 2. Importance of the § symbol

Before we enter the text for our sign, we need to take a moment to explain the importance of the **§** symbol.

Color and formatting is added to signs using the **§** symbol in Bedrock Edition (PE, Win10, Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch). There are 16 different colors available and 4 formatting options that you can choose from.

The following is the list of color codes and format codes that you can use for signs in Bedrock Edition:

 §l
 §o
 §r

**TIP:** If you don't know where to find the **§** symbol, read our Where to find the Color Symbol in Minecrafttutorial.

### 3. Enter the text for the Sign

Here are a few examples of how to enter colored signs in Bedrock Edition:

#### Example #1

Using **§b** changes the color of the text to Aqua:

```
§bColored

```

#### Example #2

Using multiple color codes changes the color for each letter:

```
§cC§6o§el§ao§br

```

#### Example #3

Using format codes such as **§l** can set the text to bold:

```
§bhi §lhi

```

**Note:** Once you enter a certain length for the sign text, the sign editor will not display the end of your sign text. So it is difficult to see the end of the sign text in Example #2.

Congratulations, you just learned how to make a colored sign in Minecraft Bedrock Edition.

## Other Things to Do with Signs

## Where to Find an Ocean Monument

In Minecraft, an Ocean Monument is a structure that spawns naturally in the game. It looks like a water temple and is only found underwater in the Deep Ocean biome.

Here is a picture of what an Ocean Monument looks like underwater:

The Ocean Monument is made up of prismarine, prismarine bricks and dark prismarine and it is lit with sea lanterns. The monument is held up by 23 large pillars made of prismarine bricks.

Around the monument, you will find lots of squids swimming around.

**TIP:** Because an Ocean Monument is completely underwater, you will need to be in Creative mode or drink a Potion of Water Breathing if you want to explore the temple. Otherwise, you will run out of air and die.

## Entrance to the Ocean Moment

There is one entrance to the Ocean Monument. To go inside, follow the arches of sea lanterns to find a small opening into the temple.

Once inside, you will find a series of passages to follow.

## Protectors of the Ocean Monument

The Ocean Monument is protected by two types of underwater mobs - guardians and elder guardians. Both of these mobs are hostile and will attack you. As you approach either, you will hear an eerie noise.

#### Guardian

A guardian has two different attack styles. It will either fire a laser at you or perform a thorn-like attack.

#### Elder Guardian

An elder guardian is even more powerful than a guardian. Its attacks include firing a laser, performing a thorn-like attack and inflicting mining fatigue.

If you encounter either of these mobs, make sure you are wearing armor. One attack from either of these and you will most likely die.

## Wet Sponges

Within the Ocean Monument, you will find rare wet sponges. You can usually find a group of sponges growing in the temple on the ceiling in one of the small rooms. You can dig up these wet sponges and add them to your inventory.

## Ocean Monument Seeds

You can use a seed to create a world where you spawn near an Ocean Monument:
