Grumble - now my wife and I have to find a new fantasy chick.

As far as my fantasy build I want a single tower that contains all farms and grinders that produces mob drops as well as finished products.

Re: Share Your Epic Fails

While I was working on my nether trap I decided I was going to mine the majority of the nether rack in a 100 X 100 area for two reasons. 1 I don't like the look of the nether being slabbed and 2 because I don't have any way of obtaining nether growth .Knowing I was going to playing in lava I geared ...

Re: Nether portal question

That actually completely makes sense. The only reason the portal would have been placed so far from its center is if there was nowhere to put it that was closer. Most likely, the place where the portal wants to be is a short distance into the air over the lava. Absolutely hence it is far easier to ...

Fc's ponies would probably puke acid when you hugged them and the faeries would trample you half to death trying to eat the pony puke.

Re: Nether portal question

I think it has to do the placement of the portal in the nether. The portal spawned the side of nether mountain surrounded by lava. Sucks too because its lava for as far as i can see.

Re: Nether portal question

ok so I took your suggestion. I took 4 trips through the portal 3 of the trips put me under my mob trap the fourth trip put me on the surface just outside of my mob trap. I was careful to make sure each time i entered the portal in the nether I did it front-right, front-left, back-right, back-left. ...

I didnt know villagers could turn into witches.

i really dont know much about witches tho. Are they worth the time to build a trap for?

Re: Nether mob traps

Thanks for the input. Ive never spent much time in the nether - the place causes my steve to become a walking dung factory. I wasnt sure about the ghast spawn requirements. I will probably use spawn pads in thee open areas of the trap to keep ghasts out and give me more spawn areas for mobs.

Nether mob traps

I have gotten to the point that a nether mob trap has become a necessity but before i start it I want to ask a few questions. The design Im considering is an inverted pyramid starting at layer 15. Each level will be 2 blocks high with pistons set up to push mobs down to the next level. At some point...

swamp mob trap

My base is on the border of a swamp so I decided to build my mob trap there to farm witches. I use a 9 x 9 checkerboard pattern with 2 air between each spawn level. I have a water flow directing mobs into 4 saws with the lower saws being set back 1 block to allow drops to fall into hoppers. It works...
