Advancement Made!Total BeelocationOverview
Total Beelocation is a task advancement in the Husbandry tab of Minecraft's advancement system, carrying the in-game description "Move a Bee Nest or Beehive, with 3 Bees inside, using Silk Touch." It branches directly off Husbandry, so that earlier advancement is its prerequisite and must be earned first. The Husbandry tab covers advancements related to farming, animal breeding, food, and the natural world. Total Beelocation was added in Minecraft 1.15 and is still in the 26.2 advancement set.
It is rated Medium difficulty on this site: requires some preparation or specific resources. Part of normal gameplay progression. It uses the standard task frame, meaning it is a normal step in the tree rather than a goal or challenge milestone. Nothing else in the tree depends on it, so it is a leaf at the tip of its branch.
In tree terms, Total Beelocation sits first along its line: the full path from the Husbandry root reads Husbandry -> Total Beelocation. That means 1 advancement must be completed before this one becomes available, and Total Beelocation is one of 31 total advancements in the Husbandry tab. It shares its parent with 12 sibling advancements (Bee Our Guest, The Parrots and the Bats, Best Friends Forever, A Seedy Place, Fishy Business, Glow and Behold!, Whatever Floats Your Goat!, Bukkit Bukkit, Smells Interesting, You've Got a Friend in Me, Stay Hydrated!, and Uh Oh), all of which open from the same point in the tree.
How to Complete Total Beelocation
Earning Total Beelocation comes down to the following, performed in order:
- Find a bee nest with 3 bees inside (wait for all bees to return at night) and mine it with a Silk Touch enchanted tool.
- The nest will drop with the bees stored inside it.
Tips & Fastest Route
Tips & Fastest Route- Fastest route: Wait until 3 bees are inside a nest at night, then mine it with a Silk Touch tool.
- Bees return to the nest at night and during rain, so harvest then to capture all three.
- Silk Touch keeps the nest intact with the bees stored inside; without it the nest breaks and bees scatter.
- Make sure Husbandry is already ticked off before you start, otherwise Total Beelocation will not be tracked even if you perform the steps correctly.
- At Medium difficulty, Total Beelocation is a routine step once you have the prerequisites in hand; no special grinding is usually needed beyond the items the steps call for.
Common Mistakes
Common Mistakes- Remember that Total Beelocation will not appear as available until Husbandry is done, since the game only tracks an advancement once its parent has been unlocked.
Reward & What It Unlocks
Reward & What It UnlocksTotal Beelocation grants no experience directly; its value is progression rather than a point payout.
It is a leaf advancement, so nothing further unlocks from it; it stands as a completed tip of its branch.
