    PLACE TORCHES ON THE SPAWNING PLATFORMS! I have no idea how +Mumbo Jumbo didn't notice this, but I've built a lot of mob farms, if you're going to have water to push off mobs, that same water can take out your torches. Don't let creepers spawn on your hard work, just place torches on the parts where the water will be and your farm will turn on as soon as the first cycle of water has completed.
    Also if you don't have the resources for dispensers and buckets you can use pistons that are holding back water source blocks, you just also have to remember that you won't wont the upward pistons in the redstone line that comes out of your hopper clock since pistons stay open with constant signal, rather than switching state on pulse, like a dispenser with water in it

    • @briantroy7376
      @briantroy7376 Před 8 lety +18

      no, did I get something wrong? If you come back saying that torches will make mobs not spawn you clearly didn't read the comment. The farm is made such that water covers the entire spawn platform while it pushes mobs off. that same water will clear out the torches you placed there.

      +B. Bond Buddy come on, please.... he was talking about when mumbo mentioned going back into the farm to put all the water in after you have it built. If you don't place torches you have to worry about mobs and creepers blowing the farm up like he says in the video. this guy is saying just place torches while you're building so when you go back in later with all the water buckets you don't have to worry about mobs and when the farm starts running the water will take out the torches. We all clear now?

    My experience with this farm: it works beautifully on 1.14.2 vanilla survival until other people get on the server in far away chunks. Don't know why, but it produces the stream of mobs just like the video and stops as soon as someone else logs in at a different location. If the other people are at the farm with me it runs fine, but any other chunks in the world being loaded will have an effect on the drop rates.

    • @redtsunami0315
      @redtsunami0315 Před 4 lety +1

      Most mob farms don’t work with others online they are really just designed to work with no other spots they can spawn the rates drastically decrease because of unlit caves and such on other people’s ends all mob farms are effected this one just the same as mine gnemboms most recent design

    • @stevennguyen2556
      @stevennguyen2556 Před 4 lety +2

      Dylan Branum so your problem here is that other players are in locations where other mobs can spawn, practically leaving a radius of 128 around that player to spawn mobs as well, this will diminish the mob cap and slow down your farm.
      On my server we have anyone else afk farming light up caves and the ground 128 blocks around their afk location

    • @danrog729
      @danrog729 Před 4 lety +2

      It's because the mob cap is server based, not player based so if there was a lot of spawnable blocks around the other player, then there would be a drastic effect on the rates

  • @namensklauer
    @namensklauer Před 8 lety +39

    A very simple trick to make this a bit easier: light the whole thing up with torches on the ground(!). when you start the farm the first time the water will get rid of the torches and your farm is finished.

  • @lemunz4280
    @lemunz4280 Před 7 lety +224

    For those of you who don't get many drops:
    1: The areas around the mob spawner are dark enough to spawn mobs. To fix this, light up all the areas around it (at least 50 blocks away), including caves and underground systems
    For those of you who get source blocks:
    1: you are playing in an outdated version
    2: you did not space your dispensers correctly
    Materials: LOTS of blocks, redstone, buckets, redstone repeaters, dispensers, and hoppers
    If you want to do this without taking up a lot of iron run a water stream under the mob farm that make the mobs drop into a smaller area, thus using less hoppers.
    I have modified this mob farm to make it more efficient. All I can do is explain how it works, so only some redstone ppl with understand. Here it is:
    So the problem was that the water was out for 50% of the time, ao mobs won't be able to spawn for a while. My solution was to make the output of the hopper clock to run into a mono stable circuit. Then the output The of mono stable circuit would branch off to both of the dispenser lines. On each side it would branch off again, then connect back to the main redstone line. Of course, when it branches off the second time it would have many repeaters so that there is delay before the dispensers take back the water so that the mobs can be pushed away. To avoid making a redstone clock from this, I put a redstone running into a block then a repeater taking the signal from this in between each of the branches.
    Because of this, my mob farm spawns up to 40% more mobs than before
    Leave a like if this was helpful so that others can benefit from this too! :D

    • @jondoolio
      @jondoolio Před 5 lety +3

      Lemunz thank you for your tip, but I don't need to have a more efficient mob farm and i have enough iron and blocks for the entire structure. For some reason, my mob farm is not working. What i mean is, no mobs are spawning. The hoppers beneath the farm are all lit up and the farm itself is not lit up and mob proof. Im building my farm at ~Y:180 in a jungle and I did not light up any caves beneath me but I didn't think I needed to. I am playing in 1.12 java edition. If you read this and need more information, I will gladly tell you because you seem to know what you are doing. Thanks.

      @@mikeyb7033 not the best one cost-wise anymore, or efficiency wise. Also, the collection is pretty basic. If you want a ton of items, potentially well over 13k items per hour, you can build 4 of gnembons flushing mob farm(at least 10 floors), using hopper minecart unloaders, and soul campfires. This will yield triple the items, with 2/3 the dispensers, and far less dust and things.

      just build it as high as possible and fill everything under it on the ground with torches. Light up all caves under it too. Then make a small platform about 20 blocks away from the huge spawner and set your visibulity to at least 12-15 chunks. That fixed all problems for me. Then i made a rail with hopper minecart to collect all the itmes and unload them in hoppers, which hoppers take the items to dispenser that shoots them down to the ground in another hoppers and then they get all the items in my 100+ large chests :D

    For some reason, when I built this mob farm, the water sometimes bundles together and make water sources to then make water falls coming out and I have to go up and clean it up repeatedly. Does anyone else have the same problem? Please reply back

    • @pharynx007

      Jesus Christ i haven't built this yet, but your problem has to be that your dispensers are too close. that is literally the only way that can happen. with 4 blocks in between dispensers there is no way for the water to make source blocks. the game just doesn't work that way. i just tested it, and you would have to have the dispensers every other block to get water sources to be created.

      Jesus Christ I had the same issue and found the problem. It is actually quite simple, While building you messed up on one of the teeth you were supposed to build in between the two sides. If one block isn't exactly correct, it will create waterfalls. Hope this helped.

  • @DanknDerpyGamer
    @DanknDerpyGamer Před 2 lety

    You can just start with one layer for mobs to spawn on, and then build on top of them as you get the resources, etc - it'd (I find) make things a lot less arduous versus all the climbing around and stuff needed to set things up (w/ the water buckets in dispensers, etc) that you'd do by doing all the layers you want in one go.

  • @Hudson0033
    @Hudson0033 Před 7 lety +1

    Good note with accordance to the hopper collection; You can place magma blocks as your death platform (in 1.11.) and just have a simple hopper minecart system. It is extremely cheap and works. If it helps you can add more than one minecart.

    @FusionKota Před 6 lety

    Making a funnel at the bottom of the structure for the mobs to fall in a small area (2x2 or more to fit spiders) will make it cost a little less iron and make it a bit more compact. You also won't need as many hoppers. As long as you have enough storage they won't get backed up(?)
    You can also make them fall a bit shorter distance so a good portion of them don't die and you can smack at their feet for loads of XP. Perhaps make a station along their fall with pistons that retract and push in a floor for them to land on so you can toggle between xp and just farming the items. This machine has lots of uses 🖒 can't wait to polish my own design of this thing.
    Thanks for the tutorial!!! Subbed!!

  • @jacksonheberlein3292
    @jacksonheberlein3292 Před 6 lety

    If you want to minimize the amount of hoppers used you can set up a room just a few blocks underneath the mob spawned that will push all of the mobs into a smaller area which allows you to not have to put as many hoppers to collect mob drops.

  • @guardiangi6
    @guardiangi6 Před 7 lety +14

    for any one wanting to do something like this: we have observer blocks now (1.11.2 is what I build this in). you can make something that works just as well as this with A LOT less resources.
    just repeat the following pattern as often as you want on top of each other:
    1. dispenser (facing up) + water bucket
    2. observer block (facing up at the dispenser)
    3. air
    4. see 1; repeat ;)
    that is pretty much it.
    now make a star like shape around each dispenser to capture all of the water (go 7 out in each direction, then fill out diagonally.)
    then on the top most layer remove the bucket and add a red-stone clock to activate the dispenser.
    the observer block will make the water cascade down.
    make it all dark, add some hoppers to catch the drops and you're done.

      I don't know what you mean by a piston observer (piston in BUD mode?) just use the "new" observer block. it's a single block, you can;t get a BUD smaller than that and it's the reason my design works.

    @SenyiKimmo Před 7 lety +1

    A good idea for this build is, when you're making the layers, place torches somewhere on the floor in front of the dispensers. That way, when you come up to put in buckets, there won't be mobs to deal with. Then you just activate the entire thing, and the torches get washed away by the water!

      @Dracule0117 Před 6 lety +8

      If you don't mind having something in your sky, you can get closer to that number in any vanilla survival world by building the farm up in the air so that your AFK spot is 130 blocks or so above the ground. Easy way to nearly eliminate mob spawns where you don't want them, and makes the farm equally effective day or night. On my current world I plan to embed a version of this into a sky island I'm constructing, with access via nether portal and elytra.

    • @mastertrey4683
      @mastertrey4683 Před 5 lety +1

      U can easily use the same design and turn it into 40k drops, about half of the maximum drops possible allowed by minecraft. U could stack more, like 20, which is completely plausible. You could make 3 of them surrounding an afk spot and afk in the middle. Less plausible but you can still do it if you have a whole double chest full of iron to make hoppers.

    2. Download *MC EDIT* and copy the whole farm
    3. Make a copy of your survival world and put it on creative mode
    4. Paste the farm in the copy of your survival world
    5. *TEST IT* on several locations on your world, see where it’s most efficient
    6. After being the most satisfied with the results, rebuild it in survival world or that server that you made a copy of.

      What happened, did the dispensers shoot out their buckets?
      If so, the most likely answer is that
      a) You placed DROPPERS instead of DISPENSERS (Dispensers require a bow in the crafting recipe.).
      b) There were water buckets in the dispensers and water blocks on the floor in front of the dispensers, causing the dispensers to drop an item instead of placing a water block.

    • @yellowumbrella18
      @yellowumbrella18 Před 7 lety +5

    • @yellowumbrella18
      @yellowumbrella18 Před 7 lety +5

      I may have figured it out. I think redstone timing in my server may be a little funky. I noticed the pulse wasn't traveling up the torch tower, so I put a repeater set to 2 ticks just before the first torch and now it seems to be working.

    *This can work in bedrock *IF* one problem is solved... does anyone know a way to make an inverse signal extender? Instead of having the "on" last longer, the "off" needs to last longer. This is the only problem that needs solving for this to work in bedrock.
    The nitty gritty: It doesn't work in bedrock. However, the only thing that's wrong are the corner pistons. The clock itself works fine, it's the pistons on the corners that don't pass the signal to the rest of the redstone. The pistons default positions in this machine are up, in order to keep the signal off, so that just a pulse passes through when ever the clock changes sides. The problem is, in bedrock, the pistons power off and back on too quickly to pass the signal, hence the need to have the off phase last slightly longer.

    • @Calcint
      @Calcint Před 4 lety +11

      FIXED IT! Literally all you have to do to make it work in bedrock is replace the corner pistons with a block with redstone on top, so that it's just a straight line of redstone going into the next repeater... and change the repeater ticks from 4 to 1. Works great!

    Now one thing to keep in mind when building this is that you need to be cautious of what biome you're building it in.

Made the mistake of building this in an extreme hills area and within 5 minutes all my water on the first layer had frozen solid and my system was broken.

    where am I supposed to stand? I tried standing above and it wouldn't spawn mobs. Also, my machine fires differently and I don't know how to fix it. It fires like this L(left side) has water while R(right side) has water as well. then L water retracts and R stays with water. Then both R and L don't have water. Then only L has water. So on and so forth. I have already tried stopping the machine and replacing all water buckets

      you should stand or afk at least 20 blocks above the farm, to increase drops.

    So glad I spent the last hour building something that does not work anymore. Rip

      What do you mean doesn’t work anymore

    • @theyammi437
      @theyammi437 Před 5 lety

      I’ve built this entire thing three times. I’ve filled the dispensers up many times. It does not work.

      I don’t know. I do know that it’s changed though. I can’t answer much.

    Literally JUST finished building this on my server!
    Tip #1: If you're not building a base of some sort around/under this, Install some scaffolding under the spawner so you can access the redstone at a later time. Put carpet on it instead of lighting it up. Mobs won't spawn and you won't light up the lower level.
    Tip #2: Don't forget to light up the roof when you cap off this sucker. Fortunately it wasn't too much of a problem for me, but it could be obnoxious for someone who hasn't built their AFK platform.
    Tip #3: To echo everyone else, DON'T FORGET to light up the floor of every row. Not the walls, just the floors.
    Tip #4: Bring lots of ladders unless you already have your Elytra and plenty of rockets.
    Tip #5: Bring extra materials. I made this out of cobblestone, and ended up wasting a bit due to mistakes and the general need to break blocks with nothing underneath them. You also never know when you accidentally hit Q and lose something important.
    After 20 minutes of waiting, I already had 4 stacks of gunpowder and other lovely goodies! Thanks, Mumbo!

      Mobs spawn (These numbets are a diameter of a sphere) 25 to 54 blocks away on that version. Use a mob farm made for it. I've seen many designs. If you reply to this, Ill link one. Once wither roses get added, use those.

    Love this build, used it a few times on different maps. I'm a bit of a redstone noob so I was wondering if you could give some advice on how to redo the sticky pistons circuits at the corners at 7:27 to work in the better together update?
