Hey guys, Bogiga here. I just wanted to show you this really effective skeleton xp farm, that's pretty easy to make if you do it right. It uses a basic concept to stack up a lot of mobs really quickly.

Basic concept.
- Mob spawner checks if player is within 16 blocks
- Mob spawner checks to see how many skeletons are within 8 ish blocks
- We move spawned skeletons out of the 8 block range quickly before the next check.
- Mob spawner spawns 1-3 skeletons every spawn tick.
- Mobs will stack up in an area where they are at half a heart and easily vulnerable.

So if you just watch my tutorial, you can see how this is done.

Thanks so much for watching, see you in the next one!
- Bogiga

  • IMPORTANT READ!

    To all of you that have problems so you can't hit mobs in legs:

    Make some Splash Healing Potions and wait for zombies to gather and than when there is alot of them just throw potion (in their legs) and they should all die instantly...

    Problem solved :D

see all

  • @xCynicalGamer you know you can just use gold nugget and apple to get golden apples now right?...

  • @xCynicalGamer not rare anymore =p

  • @PressStartJerk u have to make sure they are stacked up at least 8 blocks away from the spawner or else it wont spawn anymore. make a channel move them like 10 blocks away from the spawner and it will just keep spawning them

    

  • This is a great tutorial and this farm works very well, but I can't get more than 5 skeletons to stack following these instructions. I added a canal at the collection point that moves them another (5,-2,8) blocks away and they stack like crazy - BUT skeletons will don't seem to lose any health if they land on top of a large group of other skeletons so I have to throw many more punches. It's worth it, though - I just built a big wheat farm right over the skeleton farm. :D

  • umm... can i just make it drop 23 blocks after going 8 blocks so i dont have to go up with the signs?

  • ive built it to exact on 1.1 and not alot are coming through i have to go back to the beggining of it, the starting point was y=45 ad after y=23

  • I have one problem, i get like no xp.

    

  • @lmxTricky That's why you should just go AFK and throw a Potion of Healing at them when you come back after 30 or 40 minutes.

  • @Joiner113 You need a block in front of their top portion so only their legs are exposed :)
