How to Find Diamonds Easily in 99 Nights in the Forest
Diamonds are one of the rarest and most valuable resources in the game, but most players spend hours wandering without finding any. Here’s how to make it much easier:
1. Know Where Diamonds Spawn
Diamonds don’t just appear everywhere. They usually spawn in deep caves or hidden chests scattered across the map.
Look for stone walls with crystal-like patterns that’s often where diamond veins hide.
2. Bring the Right Tools
A basic axe won’t work. You’ll need at least an Iron Pickaxe or better to break diamond blocks.
If you try with weak tools, you’ll just waste time and break nothing.
3. Follow the Glow
Diamonds often give off a faint bluish sparkle in the dark.
If you see a weird shimmer in a cave, go check it most people miss it because they rush past.
4. Check Near Lava & Waterfalls
Diamonds like to generate close to danger.
Caves with lava pools or hidden underground waterfalls are prime spots.
Just be careful lava kills faster than enemies.
5. Listen for Clues
In some nights, you’ll hear a faint “crystal chime” sound when near diamond veins.
If you hear it, slow down and look around carefully.
6. Don’t Ignore Treasure Maps
Sometimes NPCs or rare drops give you maps with “X” marks. These often lead to chests with diamonds inside.
Many players toss them aside thinking they’re useless big mistake.
7. Night 20+ Bonus
After night 20, diamond veins spawn more often and deeper underground.
That’s the sweet spot when farming them starts becoming easier.
8. Use Campfires as Checkpoints
Exploring caves at night is dangerous. Place campfires or torches at cave entrances so you don’t get lost coming back out with your loot.
9. Trade for Diamonds
Some NPCs hidden in the forest will trade diamonds for rare resources (like rare herbs or monster parts).
If mining isn’t working, trading can be faster.
10. Best Shortcut: Diamond Caves
There are special caves sometimes called “Diamond Caves” by players. These have walls full of glowing blue crystals.
They’re rare, but if you find one, you’ll come out stacked.
