Top 10 Most Important Items in Minecraft

1. Crafting Table

   It's absolutely the most important thing. Without it, I can't even imagine what would happen. Make sure you always carry this with you everywhere. You never know when you'll need it during mining.

   We always need you, Crafting Table!

2. Water

   Many Minecrafters think water and oceans/rivers are an obstacle and are useless. I think water isn't useless. It is pretty useful when you want to get down ravines safely. A water bucket can be useful for trapping mobs.

3. Diamonds

   Diamonds are very useful for armor and tools. You should always try to mine them.

4. Pickaxes

   Pickaxes are something to mine with. Golden ones can break easily if you try to mine more with them.

   Pickaxes are pretty important because you use them every Minecraft day for mining.

5. Compass

   To find your way home! Cool, but I don't know if my house is north, south, east, or west. It is useful, but I don't know my way around, though...

6. Torches

   These are important for the night and to prevent mobs from attacking your house/base.

7. Chests

   What if your inventory is full and you want something else? Keep it in a chest.

   Great for keeping endless dirt and cobblestone that you find. Also useful for important items!

8. Villages

   Most newbies will mine it all up. Most pros will trade with villagers. Anything can happen in the village. It's pretty useful to find them anyway.

9. Bed

   If you don't have a bed, you will get killed by phantoms because you weren't sleeping.

10. Wood Planks

The Newcomers
11. ?

    Shulker Boxes

12. ?

    Bookshelf

The Contenders

13. Brewing Stand

14. Wood

    Now, you might be wondering why I put wood out of the top ten. Yes, wood is really important for making stuff, which is so true. That's why it is important. But then again, the fact that wood is so common means it can get annoying by filling up your chests.

15. Totem of Undying

    Come on! It saves your life. You want your life... right?

16. Furnaces

    Needed for cooking delicious food.

    Without furnaces, you can't cook food. Cooked food gives a lot more hunger bars than uncooked food.

17. Iron

    It's the halfway mark to diamonds. Not very rare, but very useful.

18. Apple

    It can breed horses. Horses help you transport to other places faster and without losing energy.

19. Golden Apple

    

20. Sticks

    Sticks make weapons. Sticks are very useful if your tools break, and you can make them again.

21. Cobblestone

    Cobblestone is better than dirt. That means it should be one of the top 10.

22. Armour

    Do you want to have some clothing? Or do you want to walk around the street (overworld) naked?

23. Elytra

24. Enchanted Golden Apple

25. TNT

26. Dirt

    To get diamond, you need a pickaxe. To get a pickaxe, you need sticks. To get sticks, you need wood. To get wood, you need a tree. To plant a tree, you need a place to plant it. Dirt!

27. Swords

    You can kill mobs and animals with it.
