For any who come to this tutorial from bedrock this design works but you do need a layer of solid blocks above the farm to block the light I recommend 4-7 blocks above the farm and ~5 blocks wider than the farm to get the light level to 0 in the farm. Adjust size larger if you don't think it's large enough.
I’ve been playing Minecraft for over 10 years now and finally decided to give Skyblock a try a few weeks ago. This is the mob farm I’m using-the first one I’ve ever built that doesn’t rely on a spawner! I think I may have built it sideways, but the proportions are the same, and I’m currently watching the killing chamber fill up with mobs. Thanks so much for the tutorial!
Hey I just seen your command block video that was uploaded 5 years ago I left a comment and I clicked onto your channel to see if you were still active and yes .... thanks for the tutorials. I'll subscribe
Hello, thanks for the tutorial, it works great! I thought it was a little confusing, I've had to watch it many times over to understand what I'm supposed to be doing. Even building in creative mode first, I still struggled a bit. I have some constructive criticism. I find it would've been helpful to see the end product first, then a brief overview of what we're building and the dimensions we need at a glance (chute and chambers in particular). Other than that, once I built a couple and got the idea, it was an easy and simple design to work with. I do appreciate showing how to build it in survival. Thanks!
I spent 1.5 hours mining afk cobblestone, made 4 stacks of stairs, 6 stacks of slabs, stack of ladders, and 32 torches. AS IM WALKING TO FINALLY START IT I GOT CAUGHT UP LOOKING DOWN AT THE VID, AND FELL OFF MY 3 WIDE BRIDGE SOMEHOW TO THE VOID BRUHHHHH 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
@@Aykhan_edits presumably only one water block and they'd rather use it for the cobble gen. Though if one wanted they probably could use a single water block for both a basic farm of the classic design and a cobble gen. Seems like it'd be annoying though.
Great job bud. FYI you can go 21 and the mobs be a one hit kill and since I play all your skyock maps I've had lots of practice to perfect it for those precious iron ingots lol. I have a feeling your coming out with a new map using the blossom as the starter tree lol. Love to see it be quest based with a few rewards for getting your first piece of iron ect. Enjoying the series as well. However spiders come in handy for string which is very much needed if you don't have grass to spawn sheep. I don't mind the spiders contained vs phantoms lol
For bedrock you have to repleace the stairs and others non full blocks, with wood planks. Non full blocks let the light pass in bedrock, and the mobs doesnt spawn.
How about if you extend the roof out another 12 blocks or so in every direction? Not sure exactly how far out it would need to be, but seems like that should block the light from being able to go into the sides.
@@Lea_D. The issue is that the farm relies on mob path-finding. When a Mob decides to wander, it makes 3 attempts to locate a full block (not half slab or stairs) within a 15 block radius, and then tries to get as close as it can. It's why mobs tend to wander towards the walls of canyons. The more full blocks you have in your roof, the greater the odds that a mob will attempt to wander towards that point, which does not lead the mob to the trapdoor. Java will let bottom slabs and stairs block light, while bedrock does not. 1 solution might be to build the roof from full blocks, out 12 more blocks as you say (i think only 7 is necessary, but i don't recall), at 18 blocks above the spawn platform, so its out of their block selection range, but still provides the necessary shade.
@@jarrod752 Sounds like something to experiment with in a creative world to figure out how high up and how far out it should be to solve the transparent stairs problem. Going 7 blocks out used to be enough, before they lowered the light level to 0 required for spawning, so that's why I was thinking it might need to be 12 or even 15 blocks out now. The extra roof extension also helps with pack spawning (not sure if that applies to bedrock).
See using trapdoors is actually better entirely. Some mob farms use only trapdoors and blocks. Slabs, actually mobs will spawn on them if the block is up meaning regular top height of a block the opposite of it is lower and mobs would not spawn on it. Constructing it out of trapdoors is not that cheap but it still is a good way. (If u have only 1 water source u have enough.
at 7.21 the first pstair wall you made was only actually 12 while the alternate are 11, so do you want the mob spawning floor at 12 or 13, because the stairs start one block higher than the block you place
I do wish it worked on Bedrock. I'm currently running around in a trench every night bashing at mob legs. After many hours of play, I've gotten one potato, one carrot, some almost dead enchanted bows and armour, one iron shovel, and one iron ingot. ONE. Six more to go. I have the bucket because I cheated and put a bucket of lava in the bonus chest. I do eventually want cobblestone...
Have you tried the funnel mob farm? It's an older farm we used back in the day in the nether, it also worked topside, not as good as the water type but it still worked great. GG!
6:05 Confounds me beyond reckoning as I follow along. Am I placing planks as he is where he is on the layer he is, or is he talking one layer lower, or am I placing stairs in the layer he's placing planks on but only where the two spaces where the vertical shaft is going? I'm so unbelievably confused.
I'm pretty sure building this at 13 height is not going to spawn anything on the first few levels of the farm, as mobs only spawn between minimum 24, and a maximum 128 blocks vertical radius from the player. Depending where you decide to build your afk area.
I know i'm not the creator, but I do not believe so. Skeletons have the same spawning conditions as zombies. Creepers are a bit shorter, so there is a way to make only those spawn, but not a way to make them spawn.
are the 85% of mobs supposed to just stay on the platforms inside and only few drop? because i followed the built 100% with every block and only few mobs drop down and majority just chill on all layers not moving
Had it built up before I noticed you mentioned it only works in java 😩. Been trying to run your ilmango inspired skyblock map lately and still can’t seem to find a good working waterless mob farm.
see if making a layer of solid blocks above it (about 4 blocks away from the roof and 7 block farther than the edge) to create a dark spot may work there are other farm types that use the roof idea but this is the only farm that uses slabs. i think its mainly a light issue as slabs (and possibly stairs) let light through. im going to be testing this myself soon.
because mobs look for full blocks to head it to, and stairs don't count as full blocks. It's also why you have to make that box of planks, so that the mobs can path find it to and fall into the hole.
Done the farm like the one ilmango did, 20 block height, mob die with one hit, but they spawn very less compared to ilmango and yours, what am I doing wrong???
Hello DanRobzProbz, I am a small minecraft TH-camr. I am here to ask you a permission to comment a link of mob farm tutorial I made for flat world in Minecraft bedrock. Because this mechanism you showed don't work on Minecraft bedrock. It will be very generous if you pin it. Thank you so much
i don't know why but in bedrock spider is still spawn even after i put the slab like you do (i do like the top comment say so this model can work in bedrock)

Truly a life saver
I tried and it still doesn’t work 😭
U da best
Ur really cool
wow thank you so much, I've been looking for a Minecraft video like this for centuries now.
Genuinely I can't tank you enough
I can’t thank you enough for this. Your other video’s actually inspired me to make my own super flat world. :) ❤
That’s awesome!
Thanks.
:)
thanks Dan i'm going to build this mobfarm in my skyblock world
Thanks for your tutorial. Easy to understand and build. Built this in my SkyBlock world and it works perfect!
This design actually works amazingly, all I have to do is stand far away and then afk and they cram like crazy. thanks !! 👍👍
No worries

Dan when is part 4 of the series cause I'm so excited. keep up the good work
Soon…
Just need more rain lol
Ohh wow, thank you so much, I've been waiting for you to upload this, so that I can make mine haha. Btw you did a good job, thanks alot😊
No probz!

thanks man i was looking for a mob farm which use no water ur video just came up thanks man.
Finally same very effective mob trap for my skyblock

Why you build normal mob farm if you hace cobblestone farm you have water?
@@Aykhan_edits presumably only one water block and they'd rather use it for the cobble gen. Though if one wanted they probably could use a single water block for both a basic farm of the classic design and a cobble gen. Seems like it'd be annoying though.
@@Aykhan_edits You only get 1 water source in sky block. You need 2 for infinite water source. The normal mob farm needs ~8.
Nope, you can bonemeal water for another bucket of water @@mattcatt1165
No you need 1 water bucket a cauldron 1-3 glass bottles and you have 2 water source blocks there

So you are good but lose efficiency because the roof is full blocks then?
@@jarrod752 The roof must be full blocks and slab on top of it.

Make one for bedrock edition please.
it works perfectly on oneblock, thanks a lot ♥
Thank for your tutorial. First time playing skyblock and I hope that i can get far with this farm s2

Hey dan you can build a mob farm in desert biom in flat world and open it on top so the desert zombie spawn and when you kill it you get sand
At 6:00 I just threw myself in the void
I do wish it worked on Bedrock. I'm currently running around in a trench every night bashing at mob legs.

Sad times…
GG though!

Update: had some beautiful luck and now have my cauldron. Plus infinite water thanks to empty bottles donated by some passing witches... 😎
Could you possibly make a video on how to make this design work on bedrock
0:36 him slapping the dirt outta you while talking to you
But why we need stairs ?
6:05 Confounds me beyond reckoning as I follow along. Am I placing planks as he is where he is on the layer he is, or is he talking one layer lower, or am I placing stairs in the layer he's placing planks on but only where the two spaces where the vertical shaft is going?

I spent an hour building this to figure out it was for java only😢
Same😭
Wait what?! Nooooo
I'm pretty sure building this at 13 height is not going to spawn anything on the first few levels of the farm, as mobs only spawn between minimum 24, and a maximum 128 blocks vertical radius from the player. Depending where you decide to build your afk area.
What conversions should I make to make this on a superflat, the video doesn't really convey properly
Here because the latest snapshot deletes my buckets when I try to fill buckets
really enjoy it!
is there any way to reduce skeleton/creeper spawnrates for this farm? I really only care about the zombies
I know i'm not the creator, but I do not believe so. Skeletons have the same spawning conditions as zombies. Creepers are a bit shorter, so there is a way to make only those spawn, but not a way to make them spawn.
Holy yapping of the yappersin
thanks dude
No worries
I dont know why, but it doesn't work on me on a normal world on hard
I have turtle eggs is there anyway to make the farm a little more efficient with the turtle eggs?
Edit: wait does this work on bedrock?
are the 85% of mobs supposed to just stay on the platforms inside and only few drop? because i followed the built 100% with every block and only few mobs drop down and majority just chill on all layers not moving
I just built it really low down before playing this video 👁️👄👁️
I kinda wish he put the tutorial somewhere near the end of this season
Good video.
does it work on paper software? and on multiplayer servers
I disabled phantoms from spawning in my Hardcore skyblock.
3:00 bats do not count against hostile mob caps afaik
Whats the reason for using stairs instead of blocks?
hey dan, i built the farm but its not spawning mobs? what could i have done wrong?
Built this thing on bedrock took 3 hrs not ur fault I saw the note after I was done 😢
really usefull
This doesn't seem to work for me in 1.20.4, I've been waiting for 20minutes and still no spawn
I've tested a few mob farms and you have to be 24 block down from the mob spawn location.
can endermen spawn in this farm?
How far should you stand
is there a version for bedrock?
How good does it work?
Can you use stone for this mob farm (stone stairs /slabs)
Yes, any type on stair/slab combo would be fine yes.
:)
So if you had a cobble generator you could make a cheaper one with a stone cutter but you can't get one in your superflat though
is there a version of this mob farm that will work for 1.19 ?
It’ll work, I just wanted to mimic my farm from series that’s all…
Not for mcpe or bedrock edition
Total item haw many can any tell
In superflat you don't get that much wood ir it would take soooo long to get
does it works in a normal survival
does it works on 1.16?
can this be built in 1.13?
Dan on your discord it shows you uploaded part 4 but it's not youtube ohh so that's why i didn't see the post
Yea, I had to remove it as the music was far too loud
I blame the editor...err actually that's me?!
:D
Don’t do a me and build one in the deep dark😅😅😅😅
tecnical question, why stairs? and why use them in the fall of the kill chamber istead of slabs?
I belive it's because when you add two slabs togheter they will start acting like a regular block
@@AxXis-- yea but why not a single slab every block, they cant go trought
@@busc5448 Good point, maybe it brings in to much light? idk I'm not really into this

This doesn't work on bedrock edition?
yea
Umm it works for me im on bedrock
Can i use dirt ???
no

Oh
Does this work in bedrock?
No
14:16
Im the hundred and one

Hie 😃
Of likeess 10000
Hehe
This was the worst tutorial ever but ok.
You do know what a tutorial is right?
- you kind of get what i mean
- it should be exactly that amount (has full stack left)
- not going to bother building that part
- you kind of get what i mean
- it should be exactly enough (has full stack left). Omg lol nvrmind
- im not going to bother building that part
so true bestie
EXACTLY
I was looking for a while for this tutorial this helped a lot thanks bro
Btw i love your maps and mods/add ons
Glad I could help!
;)
Done the farm like the one ilmango did, 20 block height, mob die with one hit, but they spawn very less compared to ilmango and yours, what am I doing wrong???
It's work but why mostly skeleton and creeper spawn zombie just 1/4 spawn 😢😢😢

lets go I was Number one Like!!!!
Farmless mob water.
i don't know why but in bedrock spider is still spawn even after i put the slab like you do (i do like the top comment say so this model can work in bedrock)
Im trying to build one on bedrock will it work before I go through all the effort? Also why stairs?
As mentioned in my tutorial, no is the answer...
But people have been trying to get one to work, check the comments & you'll see some more info.
:)
