Best Gold Farm in Minecraft? - Minecraft Java Edition Gold Farm Tutorial

[@another_jt]

I agree that not every farm has to be the most efficient. I love the idea of setting a few constraints and seeing what you can come up with.

I love his creativity, but this farm is pretty dang efficient tbh...

[@another_jt]

@@richardstones1852 the output is pretty high, but at a cost of an observer, a sticky piston and a hopper per spawnable block is a pretty hefty cost to build at a scale to get that output. And that doesn't even include all the transport infrastructure.

[@cedriccappelle]

@@another_jt let alone the bedrock to be removed

[@tetradbtwitch]

This is exactly the way I like to go about making farms, and is also why I have been enjoying your beyond logic series, the slime/wrose farm was awesome! I enjoy having a go at making my own design and learning about the mechanics involved. I had a go at making a wither skeleton farm using carved pumkins to pull them out of the mob cap. It was a fun challenege figuring out a way to recycle the carved pumkins while not needing an unresonable amount of pumpkins to prime the system in the first place, it also has a respectable output for a dual crossroad design. Despite me only doing it for my HC world, I shared it with the twitch MC community and it's gained a lot of popularity (over 500 downloads, crazy) Dave even built it on the Legacy smp which just blows my mind.

[@rafael2350]

Love the concept and the fact that you give credit to the youtubers that make any design either farms or contraptions, tells a lot about the kind of creator you are!

[@bignog2620]

Such a clean looking build. The way the piglins get there blocks pulled out from under them is so satisfying to see. Videos like this are great motivation for building even better.

[@nilsragnar1347]

I just have to say I really enjoy your voice and the way you speak. For example how you tend to end sentences on an ascending pitch, like at 3:38 with the "if you like".

[@burnmanmc6224]

As usual, fantastic explained video! Great design as well - looking forward to the Bedrock removal video on your survival world! Thx Logic

[@kpharm2]

Man, I really miss these videos! Love your creative take on the game. Can’t wait to see this in your world!

[@garebear122]

possible improvement - you might be able to build the spawning platform lower and reduce the mob's falling time by dropping them onto pointed dripstone

[@iamblue8272]

item would land on top of the drip stone and not get absorbed by the hopper

[@alyssanewman1321]

I tried this woth a general mob farm and they would sometimes land between the dripstone and not die. Not sure if that would happen with a one wide but it did happen in a 3x3

[@volbla]

Mobs always spawn in the center of the block, so as long as they don't have time to pathfind they should land on the dripstone. The gaps between dripstone is only large enough between two blocks. What's tougher is collecting the items. You sadly can't simply place the dripstone on hoppers.

[@fernandoproman]

@@volbla minecart with hopper for collecting system

[@vickytechtivitiy1191]

This is super cool! Congrats on a new solid design for a gold farm, it was a lot of fun to watch :). I do have one question - The glass blocks between the hopper lines that the piglins land on - are those necessary? I assume that they are to keep the items from falling away from the hoppers, but it seems like they would be picked up instantly anyway. And if those blocks were there, the few piglins that landed on them would instead either still die on the hopper, or fall into the void. Almost certainly not much of an improvement in rates, but it would also make building just a little easier. Love the farm, and looking forward to seeing it in beyond logic!

[@jgabrielmc5180]

I totally agree with your message. Try to learn the mechanics in order to design our own designs is part of being "a technical player". Sometimes it is hard or almost impossible to improve a existing design but at least you have fun playing around with the idea in creative. We don't always need the most efficient design, but even if it were, the common denominator should be having fun. Keep on going Logic, your series are amazing!

[@orion7311]

Got to know your channel based on Docm recommendation but stayed for the details of the builds and content. Thanks for the video, it was fun to watch.

[@gregjorda3080]

I feel like I saw a creeper farm built with a similar spawning platform...but they were pushed off by the piston rather than theflor being pulled from underneath

[@YJMGC_]

A lot of designs are like that I had a mod farm like this

[@vinicus508]

That’s called down accel. They get pushed down so they die quicker

[@alwaysgaveyouup1348]

@@vinicus508 isn’t that side accel

[@volbla]

Downaccel would mean pushing a slime block down on the head of the mob so it starts falling with a greater speed. Dunno how hard it would be to implement in logic's farm, but it would be pretty cool!

[@vinicus508]

@@alwaysgaveyouup1348 side accel pushes them across, sideways instead of down.

[@nastynigel76]

I love that you made a unique farm. Oh boy that will take some resources in survival though. Lots of mining for Redstone, Cobble, Magma blocks and Sand. Other farms for Bows to make Dispensers, Iron Farm for the Hoppers, Shulker Farm for the Shulker Boxes. Witch farm maybe for the Glowstone for the Redstone Lamps if you chose to put them in. Definitely not an early game Farm but challenging for sure. Good luck in Survival.

[@ann_onn]

Log is the most under-rated Minecraft KZbinr I know. 180k subs... ffs... he should be in the millions. But I'm sure he will be, soon.

[@jasoncurran82]

Great build and thanks for doing something different. Love seeing the mobs rain down

[@tomempisse7394]

Thank you Mr.Logic ! A great video once again : )

[@EndingCredits]

Yes, I think it's very easy to get stuck in an optimisation mindset, and start chasing numbers! Nothing wrong with that, but often it's fun to take a different approach. Some of my favourite farms I've designed have been some of the least effective and practical, and I think I've neglected them more than I should. The great thing about Minecraft is that it's a game, and there's nothing stopping us from building whatever we want! On the topic of the farm itself, will the rows of observers interfere with pack spawning? If so, I wonder if it would be possible to raile them up one block and power the pistons with QC. I can't see how that's feasible in the space you have, but maybe someone has a creative solution.

[@rashmidwivedi168]

Thanks for the rotten flash farm GeekBoy

[@lawrencekellie]

I like that it is modular. In theory, you could build it with only 1 (one) spawning pad! You can also create this without shulker boxes. Therefore, rather early in the game, you can have a gold farm, and add to its size and storage (shulker) as you go along. Great!

[@oldellie3131]

Thank you for explaining the mob spawn lower in the world bit. I’ve heard that before but never with the explanation part. Very nice! 👍🏼👍🏼

[@YetAnotherJenn]

Super interesting! Thanks for sharing Logic. ❤️

[@HalfInt]

Watching the spawn platform from underneath is a great demonstration of pack spawning.

[@hollz137]

I put my own twist on a creeper farm in my single player, def agree w you that it's much more interesting & fun to build yr own designs!

[@radenkocrnomarkovic2726]

Great job Logic, keep up the good work !

[@CapObv]

Love your series. Always infomative!

[@MaxGuides]

Mob spawning in vertical sub-chunks no longer works like that in 1.18+ In prior versions you would always want to keep the top block of the farm

[@shiparelli3448]

Interesting new challenge, can’t wait to see what are the people going to come up with

[@EddyBlock]

Love the video man, great idea to challenge yourself! I finally understand redstone alot more than half a year ago so I find it interesting to challenge myself more with trying to find my own solutions ^^

[@mineless1]

Agree. Having Fun is the most important. Excellent vid as usual Logic. Thanks

[@Fritzzz85]

Love the Tutorial Logical. Im still deciding if i want to build on the roof or do a perimeter in the nether and make it part of a build. Love your work.

[@uniibrow6295]

Thanks for the video, amazing build!

[@starnighl]

Love you also reference another farm for comparassion so that viewer could chose what they should make.

[@hi-dq2qi]

Could you add drip stone to the bottom of the farm, and then lower it to 3-4 blocks above the drip stone so that their travel time while falling is even shorter? And then use a minecart system to collect the drops. Might increase the yield and make it look funnier. Could even add more layers above as well until you hit the 27 height or w.e it was

[@kotarokun3857]

Your way of explaining is the best 😊😍

[@miklosaron]

Love this farm, also found a wither skeleton farm with on/off switch, going to make a perimeter and build these two above each other :) hopefully nothing goes wrong :D

[@02bigkev]

Having fun is so true, you have given me a new idea for my game, Thx

[@lizziem6179]

this might not be the “best” gold farm, but i think it looks awesome, and the way it works is super cool. kind of mesmerizing to watch all the pigs drop haha

[@Kacey_Games]

"I keep seeing the same farms being used..." can confirm... I just built your first example by just looking at a few other peoples LOL. (Although that glass block placement is MUCH better than my own random assortment!

[@MrPerensap]

Maybe a couple of sweepers to push the chickens in the void? Great content my man!

[@xxbongobazookaxx7170]

technically you could've made the ilmango farm under those constraints but it's still nice to see something new

[@The_Tim_Reaper]

Looks fantastic Logic! But I don't envy you resource gathering for it in Survival 🙂

[@darktransmissions]

Excellent dude. I'm gonna apply this to a creeper farm in the smp I play on :D

[@itsnooer]

you can make the farm even lower if you have pointed dripstone at the bottom, you only need a height of 12 blocks to kill mobs with pointed dripstone

[@cyclopsboi]

what happens if a chicken jockey dies in this farm for whatever reason? would the drop break a filter or mess up a shulker box loader? additionally assuming you are turning off the farm by breaking the clock that pushes things through the systems, what happens to all the items that are still in the hoppers or waiting to be picked up by the hoppers?

[@loading92]

My absolute respect for this thing

[@GG-bw5qd]

If you build the glass walls up you would avoid pigmen falling on the glass. Alternatively you could increase the fall height so the pigmen still die if they hit the glass. Third idea, I believe powder snow is non-spawnable, and that would kill pickmen that land in it

[@martsbtw]

That would take to long, the aim is to kill the mobs as quick as possible which frees up the mobcap allowing another to spawn ASAP

[@GG-bw5qd]

@@martsbtw Not sure you paid attention to the video, because the current design means that if mobs fall on the glass then Logical is waiting for them randomly despawn on their own. All three of my ideas fix this (although each with their own small drawback.)

[@dannyreeve22]

this is ace great vid logic i hope you still keep going with the beyond logic series maybe change it slightly so that its not story lined if thats what people dont like about it i personally quite like it

[@thorongilUK]

Cool concept. Have you considered another top layer 4 or 5 blocks above the current top layer to increase the spawnable area? If the mob cap is the limiter this won’t work, but worth a go??

[@bobdagranny7431]

Great innovating!!

[@ant_ig]

i woud put one layer of soulsand with wither roses on top of hoppers, this will kill all chicken jokeys

[@MrRoach-ii4pz]

extremely cool, pal!

[@FishDS9]

Thank you Logic!

[@arnavsharma920]

Love your approach for trying to be a little different and having more fun by not building the same thing again and again. Can this farm have multiple spawning layers?

[@KeiGeri0406]

I just made ur 5 layer gold farm before this video came out (like 1hr before) . And now u already made an updated version lol.

[@gawf99]

I think a solution for the chicken jockeys would be to throw some campfires over the hoppers. Probably not necessary if you're staying below mob cap though.

[@pallavparmar9818]

I was literally just looking for a gold farm video today and this came up

[@CrudeBird9870]

I also get bore of those old designs and make my own designs which are not as efficient but they are fun to make ..I can really relate with you and love to see you..An advice is could you Minecraft bedrock too..It would be interesting to see some different farm ideas from your side ..Btw can I get a heart😅

[@Satyam_Gupta68]

Hey logic! Just suggesting a idea how building detection based shifting floor design.Wouldn't that help you add more layers to it?

[@jackthisout9480]

Refreshing to see a creative player. I see way too many just build the same farms over and over again. Have you tried powder snow to kill mobs? You can lower the spawn platform a lot and get more spawns. It takes longer to kill them though. Worth comparing perhaps.

[@PromptCriticalJello]

I'm not a technical Minecrafter, but i've gotten the idea of a villager-lightning-witch farm stuck in my head. My imagination keeps pulling it up finding why it wouldn't work, then finding possible solutions. It's maddening since i know i don't have the technical know how to build, but my mind won't leave the idea alone. :)

[@luff7616]

I love your farms.

[@thomasguerrini7285]

very interesting concept indeed. I would like to suggest one thing. make the glass around the hoppers 2 blocks tall (the hoppers that collect the mob loot right after mob death), and over the hoppers put soul campfire. this way the chicken-jockeys will die earlier, helping with the mob cap. and I have a question. Would it be better if you increase the height of the spawning platform to 25 blocks (so that even the mobs that land on the glass will die of fall damage) and put a back and forth flying-machine over the glass? to push on the hoppers (with the campfires on top) all the loot that is produced by the mobs that fell on the glass. this will free the mob cap faster and you get more loot as well.

[@tlcdeadshot6621]

mobs are falling down and don't have a chance to path find anywhere so they wont land on the glass but im not totally sure if chicken jokes spawn on magma I think its only adults and babies.

[@prakharunused2119]

I remember seeing this design in ilmango's sci craft series

[@ralf7823]

I agree on the fun part beeing more important. However, I really miss Gnembons videos lol.

[@Zuchii]

4:00 Is there a threshold between single platform (100%) & a multi platform 3/4 (25-20%) mob-farm ? I've recently cleared a perimeter; & with this logic, I should just built a 1, or 2 layer farm at bedrock level; thoughts ?

[@KlutzyDwarf]

Didn't 1.18 remove the mob spawning more at lower Y levels? I thought they changed it to the same rate regardless of elevation.

[@ktrile]

i thought this as well

[@all_night_long_]

Lol, it may not be the most efficient farm, but I think most people can agree it looks the coolest and most impressive compared to just layers of magma. Its probably also the most expensive pigmen farm.

[@andresgonzalez9429]

mojang changed that when you are lower in the world more mobs will spawn, now its the same mobs spawning independent of the Y value

[@LogicalGeekBoy]

That was only in an experimental snapshot and wasn’t changed in the actual game

[@calumhughes2778]

Regarding the percentage chance of spawning he was discussing. Does this still matter in a void? Surely if there is air above and below the block will force a 100% chance of spawning regardless of height right?

Wouldn't minecart hopper set up be more lag friendly? Also Borkon has a 1 wide shulker loader that is tileable, saves on space a bit.

[@TheNerdShowYT]

[@tonycimino8050]

would adding glass up next to the hopper lane all the way up to under the pistons lower the mob spawning rates and help keep the zombified piglins in line with the hoppers so they aren't clipping the glass next to the hoppers?

I thought the nether roof counts as the highest block, so it doesn’t matter how low you build it unless you break the nether roof. Are you planning to do that in survival too?

The nether roof was removed in the video so not only will he remove the bedrock at Y 0 in survival but he will remove the bedrock for the nether ceiling.
