Starting a Guardian Farm! ▫ Minecraft Survival Guide (1.18 Tutorial Lets Play) [S2E90]

The Minecraft Survival Guide Season 2 continues! And today we're starting on a big farm.
This tutorial will show you one way to start preparing a Guardian Farm for prismarine shards and prismarine crystals, which we'll craft into prismarine blocks and sea lanterns. These farms are always centred around Ocean Monuments, since they're the only places Guardians spawn, and there are many different designs out there. I plan to turn this farm into something more spectacular, and in upcoming episodes we'll discuss various methods of draining large areas of water, and preparing a spawning area for guardians.
In this episode we talk about the dimensions of the farm, the bounding box for guardian spawning, how to best use Invisibility potions to avoid Guardian attacks, and how to plan more complex shapes for farms like this!

There is no feeling like the happiness you get when your circle in Minecraft connects the right way.

[@jasonreed7522]

And no greater pain than when it doesn't and you have to find the 1 block you goofed on to see how much you have to rebuild.

[@Conceiver_]

The first time though🤤🤤🤤

[@kevinsneddon1418]

until you find out that you made the same mistake twice,

[@Brumal.]

I actually just removed the water from a monument myself on a multiplayer realm that a few of my friends and I share. although it was strictly for a build we wanted to do and not for a farm or anything. Our circle was 100 blocks in diameter and was made out of glass with prismarine as the top layer. then we converted the gravel seafloor into moss and grass, planted some trees and are now in the process of constructing a massive Cherry Blossom tree that is growing out of what will be the ruins of the monument. The basic story is that there was some sort of civilization that lived in the water, but by some means they angered a very powerful being that destroyed their city with the strike of a trident. hundreds of years later a different group of people discovered it and found the giant Cherry Blossom tree growing there that was now supporting the massive trident. this group then build a hanging city from the overarching branches of the tree. so far we only have 2/3'rds of the trunk built up. and we are using stripped oak and jungle wood as the gradient. the leaves are going to be made of pink concrete/powder, pink wool, pink glass, red glass, and red wool. the goal is for there to be a sort of dome of leaves reaching out to the perimeter of the glass circle holding the water a bay, and the city is beneath the protection of the leaves.

As someone who has struggled for ages trying to freehand janky looking circles/domes, I really appreciate you showing us some external tools to achieve a smooth curve! Thanks, as always, for the helpful content Pix!

[@Tarmin_]

a cool tip is that you can also use the fabric mod MiniHud, just render a shape, adjust it to the center of the 4 blocks in this case and set the radious as big as you want to, its really cool and it will give you a "ghost" of the blocks you have to place, so no way to screw it up, its like an automatic litematica for simple shapes

[@ramon0ad]

5:14 You can still use elytras with invisibility to be undetected. I used it in my monument project with a trident to escape faster from guardians once my invisibility potion ended. Just be careful as you fall, I burnt a pair of totems whereas I tried to land xD.

[@RobertStoddard]

You could have saved yourself the Photoshop trial-and-error step with some basic trig: 58 * sqrt(2) = 82 is the diagonal of a 58x58 square, which is also the diameter of the bounding circle.

[@Pixlriffs]

Maths was never my strong suit.

I finished draining my ocean monument and transforming it in last week, it was just spectacular

[@02bigkev]

I think what you said is so true, It's not the most efficient farm but about having fun. Great series.

[@Lea_D.]

Knowing how Pix loves his flying machines, I predict that's what he'll be using for the majority of the draining. :) Another easy way to figure out the diameter of the circle is just multiply the length of one side by the square root of 2. That gives you the length of the diagonal of the square which of course is the same as the diameter of the circle that circumscribes it.

[@brandonsmith8017]

Indeed. Only geometry and trigonometry folks would know. Yeah math!

[@TheRealWormbo]

I'm sure Pix will show some kind of flying machine techniques, but his solid concrete circle makes that method a bit annoying to use now.

[@atifashhabatif8391]

[@angelassassin9524]

Was so excited to see this video! I've been really wanting to do one of these, for the same reason of just to do it. Perfect timing as I just started looking through guides for it.

[@pesegolsson]

if you want a little different guardian farm, you might consider using the conduit as the kill mechanics? it might not be as efficient as other ways but should be fast enough for a single player world. i haven't seen many using that specific game mechanics in quite some time.

[@Pixlriffs]

I still think player kill will be preferable - because of increased drops, and the potential to use it as an XP farm. Definitely a fun option for players who want it, though.

[@TheRealWormbo]

Ah yes, ocean monument draining - so annoying, yet so rewarding. And while most players likely want to fully enclose the area in mostly solid retaining walls, I'm personally a fan of more open constructions. My first drained monument ended up having only a "safety pillar" in each corner and otherwise free-standing "water walls" around the roughly 4x4 chunks. (Ocean monuments always generate centered on a 4x4 chunk area.) In theory you don't even need safety pillars in the corners of a square shape, if you know what you are doing. And you don't need to restrict yourself to a square shape for free-standing walls either. If you make sure the outside of your desired shape cannot form water source blocks at the bottom, you can make free-standing water walls of pretty much any shape you want. And if you got the area into that state, you are technically not limited to vertical walls either. I'm currently occupied an a modded Minecraft server, but once I go back to vanilla I have a plan for what I like to call the "Hubris Bowl", which is essentially a 128+ blocks radius sphere of air dipped into an ocean just deep enough to completely enclose the bounding box of an ocean monument. I tried that before on a 1.16 server that unfortunately went down permanently before I could finish, but it gave me some very useful insights. For example that you should really avoid scaffolding blocks to lay out such a huge shape. They are incredibly annoying to deal with and it's often hard to see over a large area whether really all holes are sealed off. Also, I found that while the monument bounding box prevents natural non-aquatic mob spawns, it neither prevents wandering traders nor pillager patrols from spawning. (You are safe from phantoms only due to the fact that you are below sea level.)

[@jasonreed7522]

I know how your making these "hubris homes", since water needs a source block column all the way down to a solid blocl the easiest method is to just poke 1x1 holes strategically to prevent source blocks from forming in the corners. As for the draining process i would consider either a vertical flying machine or a temp wall and remove water from the bottom up (otherwise you might have water use the flying machine to form new source blocks, i would definitely check if you can male infinite water above slime or honey before stating to inform your design contraints). And my hat is off to you fo attempting to make a "hubris bowl" because that is a lot of strategically placed holes and removed water. (I would definitely use an upwards moving flying machine for such a project)

[@TheRealWormbo]

@@jasonreed7522 My plan is draining a square area entirely (using horizontal sweepers that are pushed down each time they reach the opposite wall), just large enough to fit the (probably dirt) scaffolding that will let the water form the intended shape. Basically there will be a safety perimeter that is free of water and will not form water sources again, except at the very top that will also flow into the bowl. Once the scaffolding shape is removed, the water flows straight down, forming a body of falling water. There's definitely an issue to solve with decorating the ocean floor within the falling water area. For example, kelp would need to be limited in height, as it turns flowing water into source blocks and might mess with the bowl shape if it goes that high, and I don't know if you can grow sea grass in downward flowing water.

[@jasonreed7522]

@@TheRealWormbo good plan, but you have made me realize it is possible to make something like Etho's man cave river with this technique to stop the sources from forming, granted is would take a lot of careful effort. I know he made his by melting ice ages ago when that created still water. (The curved/diagonal waterfall specifically) unfortunately i believe it was updated and broke like a year ago or so.

[@TheRealWormbo]

@@jasonreed7522 If you're looking into "advanced water bending techniques", you might be interested in the fact that a retracting sticky piston that is unable to move a theoretically movable structure will not cause block updates. (e.g. pulling two slime blocks, one of which is blocked by obsidian) I'm not sure if this was fixed for water flowing updates yet, but ilmango showed it a while ago in the form of a flying machine that makes a pair of suspended "water rails" in mid-air.

[@KorthalMaiyn]

It's the one large project I've never actually attempted but have always wanted to. Definitely keen to see how this one pans out!

[@Irdanwen]

I really like this storage build, I built it too after your video. I like the lines of planks. I went with a sort of cathedral build but now I'm kinda jealous of your round shapes around it :-). I really like this series keep up the good work.

[@ToppyTree]

15:00 I think all ocean monuments are at the same depth below the surface and what varies is how deep the ocean is if you make the perimeter all the way down. Not entirely sure though

[@TheRealWormbo]

Correct, monuments are always centered on a 4x4 chunk area and the structure always generates at the same height below the surface. However, the area around the monument can differ greatly. If you compare it to the monument Pix found via the map, you will see that there's a whole bunch of shallow ocean floor around it, which is bad when you want to drain the area to use the monument.

[@floppyneal7641]

I got my arms wrong and messed up my circle 2 times before getting it right but after the struggle it looks good. 👍

[@BludCount]

Always thought it was just the helmet you could wear and not be seen while invisible. Always learning new things

[@Pixlriffs]

Nope - and it's actually more complex than that. Invisibility without any armour reduces your detection range to about 7% of the normal distance. Every piece of armour you add to that adds around 18% to that detection range. So with one piece of armour, you can still be within a couple of blocks of a Guardian and not have them spot you - but wearing full armour means you're back to 70% of the normal detection range.

[@Peter55Craig]

@@Pixlriffs Ig he meant 70 % - Invisibility without any armor reduces your detection range to about 70% of the normal distance.

[@TheRealWormbo]

@@Peter55Craig No, 7% of the non-invisible detection range sounds about right. You can get *really* close to mobs when you are invisible, but each equipped or held item reduces the reduction. The game calculates an armor cover percentage that is 25% per equipped armor piece, but at least 10%. That value multiplied by 0.7 is multiplied with your vilibility, which is 1.0 normally, or 0.8 when sneaking. Since you can't sneak while swimming, the minimum visibility you can achieve this way is 0.07, or 7%. If you wear a matching vanilla mob head (player heads from data packs don't count), you get a further 50% visibility decrease. Guardians have a base follow range of 16 blocks, so full invisibility reduces that to 1.12 blocks, while wearing one armor piece only increases it to 2.8 blocks.

[@Peter55Craig]

Can you do an episode on how to go about making a perimeter as I feel that would be very useful?

[@Pixlriffs]

Watch DocM's current Hermitcraft season and ask yourself "is this the kind of project I want to put the time and effort into doing?"

[@TheRealWormbo]

Perimeters are overrated for almost all but the most technical players, especially in a single-player world. I made one once, in modded Minecraft, with a tool that could dig 11x11x11 blocks at once and mostly instantly and would not break when used carefully (for those interested: that was a Terra Shatterer from Botania enchanted with all the good stuff, including Efficiency 6, a modifier to void all the netherrack, and charged to the maximum - insta-mining downwards to remove 11x11 columns of the nether in free wall is one heck of a thing!), and I only bothered doing that because of a bug in a mod that prevented one of its (technically hostile) mobs from despawning properly. In any other case I got my farms to work way more easily by carefully selecting an AFK location and lighting up caves, or in modded situations using the spawn prevention tools available in the mod pack. The closest thing to a perimeter I ever did in vanilla Minecraft was a double witch hut farm (which is a thing where you always need to AFK low enough that you will have some caves within spawn range) where I flooded the swampland and made sure to light up all the caves I could find.

[@hatredhyde]

Idk abt you but after playing for a long time, whenever i want to make guardian farm i didnt drained all the water anymore. Just put soulsand on sea floor then guardian goes up by itself. Maybe bcs im lazy but its works for me.

[@Pixlriffs]

Perfectly worthwhile way to do a Guardian Farm! As I said at the start of the video, in Season 1 of Survival Guide I made a soul sand guardian farm. I wanted to do something different this time, and these projects are always a great way of seeing the impact a player can have on the world.

[@Timelord79]

I did the same. But one thing to note is, that bubblecolumn designs like this can add a huge amount of lag, since there are so many of them you need. What I don’t know is, if the lag is server or client side, since it‘s mainly particle rendering that is causing it, I think?

[@TheRealWormbo]

Covering the whole monument floor in soul sand is an easy (and perfectly valid) way to make a guardian farm that is supposed to just do its thing. But you are dealing with an area of almost 4x4 chunks, which presents other issues, such as getting all the guardians into a place to kill them, and doing so relatively quickly. Bubble columns don't actually cause "lag", but will strain your client when it attempts to render all those particles, so playing with reduced or minimal particles is almost mandatory for a farm of that size. The other issue about "cover the entire thing in soul sand" is handling guardian transport. The first popular such farm (the one Cub and Iskall built on Hermitcraft in, I believe, season 6) just had a large (and slow) "water funnel" at the top, which did its job but is actually less than ideal nowadays with per-player mobcap mechanics. You see, the rates of a mob farm that operates at the mobcap (i.e. 70 hostile mobs by default) are limited by how quickly you can kill those mobs. New mobs only spawn once the old ones are gone, and if the guardians fight the water currents too much, they can even despawn if it takes them too long to get into the drop chute. That's why in, I think, season 7 and/or 8 Iskall built a design with much smaller tanks - it ensures the guardians get into the killing area much quicker, therefore ensuring very good rates.

Gravel was a combination of piglin bartering and just patches of gravel I've dug out while caving. The beacon strip mine over at the dripstone cave provided at least a double chest of gravel

[@brandonsmith8017]

@@Pixlriffs What a grinder. I have found that sometimes while blowing up the nether for ancient debris there are massive patches there as well. Was just wondering because that's a ton of gravel and sand. I assume you just destroyed a desert for the sand as I haven't seen any type of sand duper in any of your content.

[@danielfc]

Hello Mr. Pixlman. I've done a guardian farm where you only pilar the spots in which they spawn, then use one or a few of these spots to spawn and funnel them. But I think it was on Bedrock, I don't remember anymore. Doesn't that work also on java? It's much easier to build on a single player world, although not as efficient. (Not saying you should build that, just an honest question if whether that would work)

[@Pixlriffs]

Those types of farms are unique to Bedrock Edition, where Guardians have specific locations they spawn in each monument. In Java Edition, Guardians will spawn in any unobstructed water block within the bounding box of the ocean monument structure - the 58x58 area I mentioned in the video.

Never like ocean draining builds. Just looks like ugly environmental destruction. Cant think of any build more wasteful and hideous than destruction of a generated structure. I've yet to see a guardian farm that impresses me.

[@Missingno_Miner]

Honestly, I disagree. The beauty of such builds comes from how the structure is incorporated into the build, redesigning, repairing the damage they generate with, etc, using the asthetic of the structure in a new way. To me, a drained monument gives off the vibe of a sunken city rising back above the waves that consumed it long ago.
