Transporting Large Quantities of Reinforced Deepslate

Efficient Mining Strategy

When collecting multiple reinforced deepslate blocks from an ancient city, bring multiple pickaxes with Silk Touch enchantments. This prevents tool durability from becoming a bottleneck. Alternatively, bring a mending book or access to a mending enchantment to repair tools mid-session.

Storage and Transport

Reinforced Deepslate items stack in your inventory like regular blocks. Use shulker boxes to maximize carrying capacity—each shulker box holds a full stack. Bring multiple shulker boxes if you're planning a large-scale collection trip.

Return Journey

Ancient cities are deep underground and can be far from your base. Consider:

• Setting up a waypoint or marker at the ancient city entrance
• Using a nether portal for faster travel
• Establishing a temporary storage chest near the mining site
• Planning your route before collecting to avoid getting lost with valuable items
