  • Spawn: 50, 50
  • Biomes: Plains, Taiga

The starting area has an exposed ruined portal present but no village. Don’t worry: you don’t need it to enter the portal since everything you need is in the portal chest.

Once you enter the Nether, you can quickly find the Nether Fortress at coordinates 50, 100. Travel to overworld coordinates 1350, -700 for a stronghold. I was glad to find out that the End Portal had three active eyes already. You can find it at coordinates 1365, -15, -685.

Here’s one of the luckiest speedrun seeds that I was able to spot. It spawns you right next to a village with blacksmith and an exposed ruined portal.

The portal will take you to the Nether with a fortress at coordinates -50, -300. Go back to the overworld, and locate the stronghold at coordinates -1550, -800. The End Portal inside has only one active eye at coordinates -1500, -15, -800.

  • Spawn: X: -176 Z: 32
  • Biomes: Plains, Forest

Spawn in a small village with a lava pool and a source of water for easy obsidian block farming. Once you have the nether portal ready, it’ll take you straight to the nether fortress at coordinates X: -373 Z: 299. I spotted the nearest stronghold at coordinates X: -1,964 Z: 788, but it’s located underwater. If that’s not too convenient for you, then hop over to coordinates X: 1,204 Z: 1,060 for another stronghold, although it’s a bit further.

There’s no village in this seed at spawn, but you get an almost completed ruined portal instead. You don’t even have to craft more obsidian, as there’s enough to finish the portal inside the chest. There’s also an enchanted golden pickaxe and helmet for protection against the nether mobs. The portal will take you to the nether fortress at coordinates X: 43 Z: -197. The closest stronghold is located at coordinates X: -1,372 Z: -1,132.

  • Biomes: Plains

I spawned on the hill, overlooking a river valley with a village and a lava pool. If you don’t want to craft obsidian blocks yourself, then dig at coordinates X: 8 Z: 104 for an underground ruined portal that’s almost finished. It’ll take you to the nether coordinates X: -133 Z: -101, where you’ll find a fortress and two bastion remnant structures. The nearest stronghold in the overworld can be found at coordinates X: -2,364 Z: 660.

This time, you’ll find a desert temple with a lava pool at spawn. The chests inside the temple contain three diamonds that could be useful for crafting armor. I also found a ruined portal in the dunes at coordinates X: 184 Z: 72. Once you enter the nether, head over to coordinates X: 555 Z: 43 for a nice fortress with blaze rods. I spotted a stronghold on the ocean shore at coordinates X: -1,500 Z: -124.

This seed is very similar to the previous one, but there’s no desert temple nearby. Instead, you have access to water for easy obsidian farming at the lava pool. If you build the portal next to the lava pool, you’ll end up right at the nether fortress. The closest stronghold that I could find in this seed is located at coordinates X: 1,620 Z: 356.
