How to get Caves & Cliffs

  1. The requirement: free fall from at least Y=319 down to at most Y=-59, more than 379 blocks, and survive.
  2. Find the spot: a tall mountain with a deep cave system under it is ideal. Dig or find a shaft from the summit down to the deepslate layers.
  3. Prepare the landing: a pool of water, a slime block or powder snow at the bottom (below Y=-59) cancels fall damage.
  4. Stand at the top at Y=319 or higher and WALK off the edge. Don't jump first: jumping before the fall tends to not award the advancement.
  5. Survive the landing below Y=-59 and the advancement completes.

Tips

A water bucket placed at the bottom is the classic safe landing, and carrying a second one mid-fall is good insurance. Check your Y coordinates with the F3 debug screen so both ends of the drop count.
