Minecraftis one of the biggest games in human history, and ever since it was acquired by Microsoft, there has been a focus on expanding both the original game and the property itself as a whole.

The latest spin-off title from the franchise isMinecraft Legends, which puts the player in more of a commander position. You will need to build structures and fight alongside other units that are serving under your command, in order to progress through the game and achieve total victory.
10Live To Fight Another Day
There is no shame in retreating if things are going south and you don’t see them improving. Fall back to preserve the resources you still have and rebuild. You can always rebuild in Minecraft.
Whether it is during a battle or a village is in peril on your map, weigh out the cost of trying to fight a losing battle and prioritize which course of action would preserve the most resources and what path could lead to overall victory, rather than trying to be victorious in every minor one. Both Legends and the original Minecraft have somevery powerful mobsto throw at you.
9Place Wellhouses Frequently
A Wellhouse is a structure you can build in Minecraft Legends. They will allow you to respawn, as well as act as a means of fast travel. The best use of these is to place them on the borders of villages and enemy bases as a fast way of getting out of, and back into, fights.
It is also a good idea to place them down whenever there is a long distance between where you came from and where you are going to prevent having to make arduously long trips multiple times when you can just fast-travel.
8Build Different Units
There are a lot of different unit choices for you in Minecraft Legends, including Zombies, Skeletons, Creepers, and Golems to just name a few of them. There is no “one best unit” and you should cover all your bases and experiment with different types of combinations.
Skeletons can shoot their arrows in an arc, allowing them to go over walls. Creepers create a large explosion making them great for dealing with groups of mobs. Find what works best for you and cover up any holes for a solid defense.
7Explore The World
Just like the original survival-based Minecraft that started it all, the worlds of Minecraft Legends are procedurally generated. This means no two generated maps are the same, unless they share a seed, and players will not find the same items around the same places as last time.

It is good to explore the whole map while venturing forth to open every possible chest and gather every resource you come across. You will also discover new allies by venturing far and wide. Exploration is also how you willgain the various mounts in the game.
6Spend Time Defending Villages
Whenever you discover a new village, it is worth spending time making sure it is fully developed before venturing off again. The more villages you have, the more resources you will be able to generate and the more places you will have to fast travel to.
Place down a Wellhouse and build up its defenses with walls and watch towers to make sure the whole village is protected. The better a village’s defenses, the easier and faster it will be to defend it. This will save you both time and resources playing the game.
5Gather Everything
You will want to always be gathering useful materials, Minecraft legends is not a game where you just put valuable stuff into a chest and leave it for days, you will constantly be using your resources to expand and defend while playing.
Always keep an eye out for Wood, Stone, and all manner of other resources you come acrossespecially gold. Use them to build defenses around each village, Wellhouses where needed, spawners, and so forth. The more effective your building is, the higher your odds of victory.
4Stay Organized
You will need to build spawners to spawn units throughout your various playthroughs of Minecraft Legends, and having them all spread out randomly can lead to a lot of times when you may not know where you built them.
A good tip is to build all of your spawners near your Wellhouses, this way you will always know where you need to go to spawn whichever units you need. The more time you take moving to and from spawners will add up, and that is time in your enemy’s favor.
3Cluster Your Watchtowers
Be sure to keep villages walled off with ample defenses, this will lessen the destruction caused by enemies and reduce how often you will need to rebuild structures that were destroyed in their wake.

Enemies will target watchtowers before they break through a wall, so having clusters of Watchtowers around the walls of each of your villages will attract enemies into those clusters and into the range of all the watchtowers grouped together. This will help do the most damage while also preventing damage to your villages and their surrounding walls.
2Check Your Map
As stated before, the game map of Minecraft Legends is made through the process of procedural generation and will be different each time you make a new map. When you open the map, you will see various markers and indicators to keep you well-informed about what is currently happening and where you might want to focus your attention.
Knowing where your enemies are and what they might attack can help you deal with threats before they become a future problem later.
1Always Improve yourself
The Well Of Fate is where you will be able to acquire all the improvements you and your forces will need to achieve victory in the final moments of the game. Improvements act as the game’s form of upgrading and becoming more powerful.
You will need to pop in at The Well Of Fate to always be gaining new improvements, which you will be able to do after gaining Prismarine from going on the offensive against your enemy’s forces and destroying their structures.
