It is stackable too just replace slabs with full blocks then repeat as many as u want
yes thats true!
Yeah i made 10 floors it is good. Creepers die to entity cramming
@@rottenflesh7015 Did you need more cats or does the one at bottom work
@@magikille more cats better
@@rottenflesh7015more like more cats needed, also if you want to build this 10 times you should rly reconsider the location of this farm. Building it on the land will drasticly decrease your spawn rates. But if you build it in like an ocean and then afk like 120 blocks above it it will make it acctualy pretty damn good.
I recommend building your farms over water or place down a bunch of leaves for a better spawn rates👍🏼
Perfect idea to increase rates
@@marcorgirgbuilding the farm under ground also increases spawn rates.
just built it in the sky
My mob farm doesn't even spawn anything at all lmao that's the only farm I'm unable to make
To all the people saying underground or sky. Wrong, the higher a platform is less mobs spawn. Why not underground? Because there will be caves and so it's recommend to have a perimeter. The best alternative is to build it in a deep ocean so there are less caves, it's down to sea level and you afk it high up so caves aren't loaded
Note to anyone else building this: This is also a stackable design if you replace the slabs on the roof with whole blocks and make the next level on top of that, it can be stacked as high as you want.
which version?
@@tyzon1794 any up to date version I think, I made mine in 1.19.1 and it works on the latest. I assume it will work on any version where creepers are afraid of cats, it’s a very very simple design.
I built this whole thing and waited all night just to realize it was java
Rip
What do you mean? It works in java.
@@Celticshade Over 300 million Minecraft players *only* use bedrock (Mojoang's own stats). Java players are a very small amount compared to the bedrock players. This is why all tutorials should ALWAYS state if they're bedrock or java ONLY, or work on both. Various YTubers are actually very good at doing this.

If you are on bedrock use fence posts instead of carpet. For some reason the spiders will still spawn on the carpet, but not the fence posts. Edit: on bedrock I also would not recommend building this creeper farm as for some people it doesn’t even work with the fences.
This is super helpful bro. I was confused why it wasn't working. Thank you❤

The mobs have less chance to spawn the higher the y value. Building the farm high you make it less efficient.

ehh. i'd say it's more Lukethe lmao
Some major improvements: build the walls with stairs. This is important because stairs do not interfere with pack spawning so you will increase rates even if the pack cannot entirely spawn. Tinted glass or glass with a roof works as well. Light up the area immediately outside the farm or there will be night time spawns. Also make sure that an area about 5-10 blocks wide is available but unspawnable for the pack spawn checks. Place the cats on chests. That prevents them from teleporting away. Soul fire killing chambers are the way to go. That maximizes the damage the creepers take so new ones can spawn. Ideally drop them down about 7 blocks and don't use a water stream at all. There should only be minimal spawn proofing required.
STAIRS FACING IN SIDE OR OUTSIDE??
@@sage413 it doesn't matter.
btw, if you have looting 3, you can do what i did where they go to a nether portal which drops them into a large killing chamber on the nether roof. It’s also means any other nearby farms on the nether room will be active too!
Yes
This is barely beginer friendly. I bet most people watching this dont even know you can get above bedrock in nether.

Somehow I've missed the whole "creepers are shorter than zombies and skeletons" bit. Now creeper farms make sense. I've never really had a need for pure creeper farm so I haven't looked it up before. The more you know.
how how u not had a use for a creeper farm yet. gp for elytra n tnt are both essential parts of the game imo
@@user-dw1fr By not playing vanilla since 2012 or so. Much less needed in modded and if gunpowder is needed then so are the other drops and a general purpose mob farm works better.
Saving this for later🤝🏾😂thank you my good man🙌🏾👍🏾
It’s cool how there’s a creeper painting in the collection room😊
it's also useful to turn down render and simulation distance when afking so mobs spawn in chunks closer to you. if the area around the farm is lit up, you'll get more spawns inside the farm.
this is SUCH A GOOD ADVICE
Are you paying the cat fairly?
I would place the cats 1 block higher so that theres 0% chance theyre gonna get pushed away randomly

Edit 2: I rebuilt my farm and rates are much much lower than pre update. Edit: it was patched last night. Should be good to go now. Just an FYI, this does not work currently on bedrock as of today. Spiders are ignoring their 3x3 spawn and are spawning on 1x1 blocks again. Gotta wait til they patch it.
So it's a bug and isn't a feature they added?
Thanks
Ugh! Wish I saw this comment before building this all😭

@@Ashley.Gomez.I would keep the farm built, but replace the carpet with iron bars. It will kill rates but will work until they make a spider spawn fix.

@@sirlordepicname8692 Ah, I was wondering why all these farms have sky platforms. Nobody ever explains why, thanks 🙂
@@____________________________.x no problem!
Start this build with a 100 blocks or scaffolds tower, build the complete farm on top of that.. prevents most spawns nearby.. and all spawns below ground.
@@erikblaas5826 This is very true, but as of 1.18, the game's spawning algorithm favors lower elevation, so be aware that if you do this, your productivity will go down significantly
Better build it on the ocean, cuz all Monsters/Creeper will Spawn only at the farm
If you go high enough mobs will spawn only at the farm.

I have a idea to improve it, while I don't know why you have to afk in the sky. If you build 22 blocks up and build the farm off of it you can have them drop to 1 hp and not have to climb a bunch of scaffolding. Saving climbing and killing time. plz respond and tell me why going afk in the sky is necessary (I only play java but have played bedrock before)
it is because mobs spawning takes place at certain levels just like if you were above the surface and mobs were in caves below it just shifts upward but nice recommendations you made!
You have to afk in the sky because if you don’t, then mobs will spawn in the caves below and take up mob cap. There’s a big sphere around you, and you only want that creeper farm to be in your sphere otherwise the rates will be terrible
@@lukraniom8731 wow, i forgot about the comment i made here a month ago... anyways i think i ran through all, ALL of the caves below my base and lighting them up. oh and I got like 6 stacks of copper. blocks.
You could also make multiple levels.
@@wasa1207well just one not lighted cave is enough to ruin spawn rates so i wouldnt rly risk it.
I don't understand why it doesn't work for me, if I go 120 blocks down does it still work?(I made the farm underground because it has to be hidden, it's a faction world)

tip: light up caves bellow farm to make it better
Information unclear:I don't have even a house in minecraft
What does the scaffolding and the platform with glass do? Not sure of the mechanics
it is an afk platform basically allowing the mobs to spawn down below and glass provides visibility with phantoms unable to attack you
why does it need to be 120 blocks up? @@marcorgirg
@@marcorgirg sorry for a late comment but is it required for the farm to work?
When it is day time is the farm meant to be dark
Yes Mobs can't Spawn in areas with a light level of over 14 you can check the light level by pressing f3 if you are on bedrock then you can't tell what it is but usually you want to have all farms dark so any light shouldn't be inside the farm Also to make farms more efficient light up any caves near the farm because if mobs can't Spawn in caves because they are all lit up they will spawn in your farm instead Also if the farm is on the surface light the area around it to make sure they spawn in the farm at night as well If you've lit up all caves in a chunk around the farm you should be able to get a lot of gunpowder but really in this case it's dependant on the size of the farm
Intrusions unclear: the creepers are killing my cats
No the cats scare the creepers into the hole
@@potatogod4prez975what if I don’t have cats

Do you build 120 blocks above the current level you're at or until you hit 120 height limit?
the level you are at, btw this is a java farm
Lol I make it in bedrock
@@PrachitPatil31 did it work in bedrock
@@diealphagene878 NO it didn't
if your creepers are getting stuck on the hoppers not dying place slabs above them to stop them from being pushed forward the gunpowder will still flow through
In bedrock you need to place on the trapdoors blocks and slabs to create a shadow
I don't understand what you were trying say can uou rephrase I need help fixing this
Stop building on your farn
I already tried everything it doesn’t work on Bedrock
But I meant that you need to remove the slabs with blocks on the roof to make a shadow. BTW i can’t speak english well, thats why i have problems with reading a comment in english on youtube
But i can speak in my mother language and then you can translate it. Maybe?…
What can you do with a creeper farm? And how do you guys come up with these farms? Is it trial and error until it works or is it based on universal rules and principles built into the game?
it's for gunpowder which combined with paper makes fireworks for flying around with elytra
Would the farm still work if you afked next to the magma in a secure room instead of building 120 blocks up?
I don’t think so
Idk
The reason you have to build up is because if you were in the ground mobs would spawn in caves below killing rate also mobs don't spawn if you are 24 blocks or closer
Creeper farms also has minecart powerd rail dropper or dispenser to make the mincart move forever you must use slime to push the minecart then your done!

u forgot 4 trapdoors in the chest lol

There is nothing aesthetic about 120 blocks of scaffolding
make sure to add more layers. you can do that by placing solid blocks on top of the trapdoors. it will help allot but this farm is still very slow (compared to other farms)
Yes make many layers

Good and compact tutorial and all, but my friend built this and we never used it. Its so much worth it building a big efficient creeper farm in the ocean so you have to light up less caves to get actual good rates
Will building up 128 blocks rather than 120 affect spawn rates? I used all the scaffolding required
Does it have to be polished back stone? Or any block?
is it one can on eatch side or is it one cat on one of the sides?
finally i can nuke my friends base i will keep you guys updated when ive nuked them
I can’t wait
UPDATE: The Nuke Worked I Now Have A Bounty im forced to hide other wise im dead
Does it matter where the tower is? will it efct it? as long as it is nearby right?
Looks like Chapman's farm. I've been using it for a couple of years now.
Also, if you are on a multiplayer server, instead of 120 blocks only go 60 blocks up for the afk platform
that works too!
For what reason ?
if its near caves you gotta patch them up
Half the stuff in the chest you didn't seem to need 😂
What’s the platform that’s built up high for?
Should start with the 120 scaffolds up and build the complete farm on top of that... This will prevent other spawns nearby.
That is not how spawning works. There is a maximum amount of mobs that can spawn at any time. The more mobs there is the less new mobs will spawn. Mobs spawn in radius of 128 blocks around the player. Beyond the radius no mobs will spawn. By towering 120 blocks above the farm you guarantee no mobs spawn outside the farm. Lower y values (height) have higher mob spawn rate. Building the farm up high would decrease the spawn rates. Building the farm at bedrock level would theoretically give the best rates, given you spawnproof all the blocks in the radius.
Thank you for this now i gave millions of tnt in my base
Best to build it 124 block above a deep ocean so the only mobs that can spawn are creepers you want to spawn.
ok so if you don't want creepers spawning outside the farm just add another layer of blocks around the whole thing
Altinative title: how to make gunpowder farm
if you use a trident killer instead, holding a looting sword out while you farm will give you extra loot
its for java not bedrock so that doesnt work.
Do you have use certain materials or could u make it out of cobble stone slabs and blocks. Because for some reason mine does not work
Nice tutorial, but I’ve always had this question. Why do you have to tower up to afk? Why not just be by the farm?
Good question! it is to spawn the creepers since mobs spawning is like a ring and they happen at different distances with a mob not being able to spawn right next to a player
@@marcorgirg thanks, but I have one more question. Why not just right on top of the farm? Why tower 200 something blocks or so to spawn? Thanks!😊
