Insane Witch Hut Farming in NardCraft! Ep. 12

Where is it um where is this thing i have to run here somewhere up up here we are hello everyone welcome back to another episode on the nardcraft server you might have already guessed what i’m going to be doing today and you’d be right i’m setting up a witch

Farm now this episode is going to be a bit of a process i built one of these last season mainly by following tutorials but this time i’m going to be going through some trials to understand fully how witches spawn and the best and simplest way to put this farm together

As you can see i already found this switch hot a bit ago and threw down a sign to claim it now first thing i want to do is just line out the area of the hut just gonna grab a bit of dirt from up here ooh turtles

I’m using mini hud to figure out the bounding box of the structure and i just want to put down a rough outline so that i could figure out the top center position of it from here i can pillar up and get a rough estimation of where a good afk

Spot might be i need something high enough to avoid having to light up a bunch of the caves and surrounding area but low enough so that the witches don’t despawn in the killing chamber i’m thinking this point right here should do the trick using mini hud i can also put

Together a quick despawn sphere this overlay will give me a rough idea of how much land i will have to light up and where the witches might actually despawn okay let’s head down and see where this actually intersects with the witch hut hmm this actually might be a bit close let’s

Let’s see here hmm if i fill this in just dig this out oh wow it’s right there i guess i should just test it out and see so i’m going to demolish the whole thing to create a small testing chamber fill in all this water so this doesn’t

Get in the way while building it keep demolishing the whole structure and this outline doesn’t matter anymore okay so now that all that is removed i’m just going to make a small chamber on this half of the box and see if i can get a couple witches to spawn in here

Let’s just jump inside make sure the light level is definitely zero yeah that looks good okay now let’s fly up wait a second and see if anything actually spawns hmm yeah i don’t i don’t see anything in here maybe i should actually make this cover the entire bottom layer not just

Half of this okay let’s let’s try this again yeah i think this area looks a lot better this will this will definitely give us more potential space for the witches to actually spawn in so let’s let’s fly up there and take a look okay so i’ve waited a couple seconds up here

We’ll just gracefully fly on down and oh i think these are witch’s hats i see witches hats poking through hmm let’s take a look and uh yes yes yep yep there are definitely wishes in here let’s get rid of her perfect okay so now that we have an afk

Spot that’s good for spawning the witches in i need to test and see if the killing chamber will push them to a low point that might actually be out of the d spawn sphere the way that i’m going to do this is just as simple as using water

Streams to move the witches around into an entity cramming chamber got to open up this front section here and put in the first water stream Okay so that doesn’t quite cover the entire layer hmm if i just put it up one more block yeah okay so that goes right to the edge of the fur spawning platform so now that i have that figured out i want to just do a quick rough sketch of where these

Other platforms are actually going to fall which is hitboxes are two blocks tall so each floor should be able to be about two blocks tall and that should get a full three spawning platforms and even though that top one only covers one block into the witch hut bounding box they should still

Spawn there as algorithm i believes looks to spawn them from their feet okay so for the second water stream this is the one that they will actually be pushed into the one entity cramming chamber with and it’s a spot right here i am really worried that this is just

Gonna have them immediately despawn oh this is super slow i’m gonna have to get some isolator to put under this stream but for now let me fill this whole thing in and see if i can get a witch to spawn that i could then push into this hole right here

Okay so i’ve been up here for about a minute or two should be enough time for one witch to spawn at the very least um oh i see the witch’s hats again and i hear them definitely got one yep so i’m gonna try and place this water bucket up here oh oh

Oh no oh i’ve been hit oh and i’ve missed i’ve missed ouch stop stop stop throwing poachers at me come on okay okay got it let’s see if that pushes them down uh i see the hat down here now so i think that’s working actually looks like it might be useful

To put another another bucket of water back here just to just to make sure that they’re not stuck in one spot oh did that one just do it you spawn or just get pushed over hmm Okay let’s let’s just go over in that corner now stay away okay let’s take a look gotcha okay that’s where we need you to be so now that they’re in the right spot we can fly up and see if they immediately despawn okay so i definitely think they’re gonna

Do spawn just flying up here meant that the despond sphere got pushed up a little bit past this afk spot so yeah let’s take a look and definitely definitely gone i’m just gonna lower the afk spot to make this work a bit easier and give me some flexibility when

Putting together the final design so i think though what i’m gonna do next is go ahead and build the actual killing chamber i’m gonna need to craft a ton of mine cards i need at least 24 in order to make sure the witches die from entity

Cramming any entity over 24 in the one spot will immediately start to take damage i am also going to need to grip my redstone chest and put together all the components i need to make a repeater clock and to make all the dispensers the repeater clock will fire off a bunch of

Water dispensers that will push the witches off the platforms gonna try and go for a clock that i think will send out the water every 15 second intervals and have two layers on and one layer off to give the most chances for the witches to despawn

So tearing down the back here i’m going to put the first layer of dispensers and then off of that is where i’m going to actually make this repeater clock i actually need to push this thing back a bit further away and add some more repeaters okay now to create a small collection

System here that the killing chamber is going to go into throw down the hopper a chest and then we’ll just put a rail on top of the hopper and now we need to put all of these mine carts right on this one spot okay let’s close this thing up and see how the

Whole basic design actually works well i waited up here about five minutes so i feel like that should be a good amount of time to get a few witches and we’ll just take a look down here open up the spot where the chest is right here

Ooh not bad for just a few minutes and only one layer i’m pretty happy with these results and glad i lowered the afk spot so these guys aren’t despawning too quickly anymore i guess it’s time to actually build this whole thing putting it together now and maybe try and make

It look somewhat interesting i think the best way to do this is in a time-lapse so i tore down the whole structure and started the actual build i decided i wanted to use a mix of basalt and blackstone i did each of the floor layers in basalt and even though it

Wouldn’t be seen i really wanted these to all be pointing in the same direction like this so i had to use all of this netherright in order to have something to place the basalt on first Once the bottom floor layer was completed i decided it was time to go and grab some ice before this section got completely blocked up i crafted the ice into blue ice for maximum smoothness or resistance to friction however you want to look at it this will help move

The witches faster to the killing chamber Foreign Then i went ahead and finished the last layer and the roof of the structure i proceeded to encase the whole thing in the blackstone and build a redstone line up each layer of the dispensers to connect them to the original clock that i had in the back And that should take care of that the whole thing should now be working let me fly up to my afk spot and see if we can get my spectator account in there to take a look at how many witches are actually spawning and how well this thing is working i ran this

For maybe like five minutes total and it seems like i’m getting a decent amount of witches spawning each layer seems to be working well and with the offset and when the water fires it gives a good chance for witches to always be spawning somewhere in there i’m going to fly down

And take a look at what i got for drops in a short period of time ouch wait what really that was weird i wasn’t going that fast are you kidding me come on luckily i set my spawn right up here and i have an extra lighter in my inner

Chest okay let’s grab my stuff real quick and take the descent a little bit slower okay got everything back so let’s see what we got down here wow that is a decent amount of stuff so eventually i’m gonna make a whole sorting system for all of this maybe i

Can show you guys that in the next episode but i think that’s all the time i have for this one i know there are definitely better designs out there but sometimes i like to struggle and figure out how to build these farms from the ground up myself

Thanks everyone for hanging out with me and watching me struggle to make this farm and i hope you enjoyed this episode at the moment of this episode being released i only have one more week on the movie i’m on so i’ll be back to regular streams soon can’t wait to get

Back on the server and hang out with all of you again and i will catch you all in the next episode next week bye for now
