💀 Mob Farm Tower

Mob farm Medium

A simplified single-floor version of the classic darkroom mob tower. Mobs spawn on dark pads at the top, wander into cross-shaped water channels, get flushed into a central 2×2 hole and fall about 23 blocks — landing nearly dead on hoppers so one punch finishes them.

💡 Tips & usage

  • Build it high up or over an ocean so more of the mob cap spawns inside the farm instead of in nearby caves.
  • The ~23 block drop leaves most mobs at about half a heart — kill them through the collection window for XP, or extend the shaft 1–2 blocks to make the fall fully lethal (no XP).
  • Full-size farms use 8-block water arms and 2–3 stacked spawning floors; this is a compact single-floor starter you can extend later.
  • Light up the area around the base so mobs spawn on the dark platform up top, not on the ground next to you.

Collection floor

Lay a 6×6 stone floor. In the middle, place a 2×2 grid of hoppers pointing into two chests beside them — everything that falls down the tower lands here.
