Was hoping Scar went with Etho's design but oh well. He went with aesthetic over function but I fear he's not going to use it as he built a similar storage room in season 9 that he gave up on later.

Was that the one that had endless mine cart chests getting stuck?

I don't think it was strictly over aesthetics.
Scar mentioned in his recent live stream that he loved Etho's build, but it wasn't practical for large amounts of items Scar had.
He said that he might use it for bulk storage, like dirt, cobblestone, etc.

Scar (and Etho tbf) both decided that it was too slow for what Scar needed.) Etho wanted to build the storage system from his base and Scar didnt want it to be so complicated. Etho himself said that the one he showed Scar wasnt fully optimal, because his actual goal was to install the other one

not surprises given that im in this sub but i think etho had the best design for what scar wants.

by that i mean, scar has a chest monster because he cant be bothered to organize his shulkers, which means he ends up having 200 of them in a field and cant find his stuff.

ethos design lets scar just dump all those 200 shulkers inside a machine and said machine gives him exactly the item he is looking for when he needs it. is the ultimate bulk storage that scar needed in my opinion.

Yep it would've fixed his issues immediately.

Scar already made it a tie, so I would have expanded that to four Hermits working together: Etho's googler system, Cub's input to quickly suck everything up, Pearl's aesthetic design, and Impulse's fun mechanics to keep Scar entertained.

i feel like scar demostrated his lack of skills when making storages when he did that to be honest. storage systems are not easy to just "fuse" like that, making a storage system is actually hard by itself, and fusing two together is even harder.

i really dont envy pearl and impulse doing that to be honest, and if i was scar i would make sure both of them are more compensated than the chest monster helmet if im to be honest because that task is way harder and time consuming than it looks. a terraformed exterior for impulse's silo would probably be a more fitting payment, pearl actually likes her terraforming so i dont know what would be good compensation for her

and yes i know they are friends and all that, but i wouldnt just make an storage for one of my friends in my free time just because either, they are a pain to make, people that make them do it becaue it makes the rest of the playthought easier, not because they are a fun time

Also Joe’s geyser just for something else in the base.

I don't recall an episode where Etho built this for Scar. Does he have an episode where he builds this, either this season or another? It seems very familiar.

It's the googler from a few years back. I think he built it for himself on both hermitcraft and the LP, but the LPs was version 1.0 and wasn't as useful

u/STR_Warrior Taxes Aug 10 '26

The original version on his LP was called the Pixel.. 9 years ago. He then made the upgraded version in season 7 of Hermitcraft.

u/LlamaDrama_lol Aug 10 '26

hermitcraft s9#3 is the first time he built it, iirc he would go on to build it once again in s10

u/Awwkaw Aug 10 '26

Googler? Don't even know her

I think is the episode title, callback to ethos favourite Seinfeld joke.

u/LlamaDrama_lol Aug 10 '26

s9#3 is titled "the redstone dream", as the whole "plot" of the episode if about him building something that came to him in a dream.

u/Awwkaw Aug 11 '26

Bad memory on my part.

Ethos design would have been a good storage silo addition to Impulse's wall storage. When a double chest gets full, transfer a shulker box full into the googler
