For Minecraft players who are interested in peeking through walls to make sure that there are no Creepers lurking around the corner, it turns out that X-ray vision can be obtained in vanilla Minecraft thanks to one potion and a small settings tweak. Minecraft continues to be one of the most popular games in the world, in no small part because of the creativity it affords its players along with the interesting and unique interactions.
Minecraft players are constantly trying to outdo each other when it comes to finding unique tips and tricks to make the vanilla gameplay experience more entertaining. For instance, some Minecraft players are already creating ways to defeat the new Warden boss, who is set to be added to the game in the upcoming Wild Update. Using otherwise innocuous items like fireworks to destroy an enemy so strong that even a detonation from the End Crystal cannot kill them shows the creativity and ingenuity Minecraft players have. Now, one player has revealed a way to get X-ray vision without the addition of mods.
Minecraft tips & tricks YouTube channel Skip the Tutorial recently shared a video titled "29 Secret Uses for Common Items" and among these secret uses was a method for getting X-ray vision. The video also featured interesting tidbits like how to use coral to mimic barbed wire atop fences or how setting an animal on fire can corral them into a holding pen quickly. But the most interesting tip was that a Swiftness II potion can give the player a sort of X-ray vision. When drinking the Swiftness II potion, the player's field of view widens to accommodate their increased speed. When combined by changing the field of vision setting to the max, players can get up against a wall or object and see what is on the other side.
This tip is incredibly useful for players who are venturing into a deep cave and want to be able to see what is on the other side of the wall, whether it be a cave system, mineshaft, or collection of valuable materials. Skip the Tutorial also acknowledges that this effect can also be replicated by using a Minecraft beacon with the Speed II enchantment.
Skip the Tutorial is well known for being able to find unique discoveries that help Minecraft players improve their quality of life. In addition to tips like this, the channel also features helpful building materials that may or may not include mods. For this tip, however, it seems that X-ray vision is only a Nether Wart and sugar away.
Minecraft is available on all platforms.
