This is a straightforward mob farm designed for early-game players, functioning as an XP grinder. It’s optimized to use very few resources, particularly cobblestone, which is efficiently handled with half-slabs. The design is ideal for Skyblock or for builds situated at a high Y-level, such as Y-200. This particular version does not have a despawn toggle; for that functionality, consider the redstone-enhanced version available separately.
The current spawn area is intentionally 2 blocks high. To accommodate endermen, you’ll need to add an extra block to the ceiling height. Be mindful to exclude the central half-blocks on the four spawning pads when increasing the height, to prevent mobs from getting stuck.
Materials Required
8 block types · 1,243 blocks · 15×28×17
Before You Build
This build uses 1,243 blocks across 8 block types – about 20 stacks in total, which fits inside a single shulker box. It occupies 15×17 blocks of ground and stands 28 blocks tall.
What to bring first
Survival or creative?
Every block in this build can be obtained in survival, so it can be built by hand without creative mode or commands. You will need Silk Touch for Grass Block.
