Hello,

I needed a form of xp, so I decided to build a mob farm. The design I used is from a YouTuber called gnembon, who makes efficient and impressive farms. I changed it into an xp farm (so it's lower to the ground than the original, a 22 block drop for the mobs). I tested it in my redstone ready creative world and it worked extremely well. I went over to my survival world and built it.



The farm works, just not as good as the one in my creative world. I get about 5 mobs per 1-2 minutes, which is very low compared to the one I built in the other world. I even went into some caves to light them up, but it didn't make much of a difference. Here are some more pics of the farm:



I used a 24-repeater redstone clock,



Here's the farm when I wait a long time,



The farm is on top of a cave (I lit it up as much as I could), I'm suspicious that this affected the farm.



Then here's the bottom of it.

If anyone knows the possible things I can do to make this farm work better, I'd be more than glad to look at your responses.

Here's the tutorial I followed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=guvMmdeZqiI

Thank you

building up high in the sky is always best, even if things are all lit up Minecraft still tries to process all available spawn points, before the aquatic update I used to just put mine over the ocean

as a random idea, try using worldedit, copy the design and paste it somewhere else so you can see what the problem is without rebuilding it a hundred times

It could be because the farm is lower in the sky. It could also be if you are aking at the bottom, you would lot a bunch of caves. Try afking above the farm and see what happens.
