Some people out of the team on our server decided to build a so called EXP farm, but we dono t want to go the normal way and build a arena and place some spawners here and there. These "normal" EXP farms can be found anywhere and we want something unique. Also it has to fit in our server concept of a medieval city-build server. After some brainstorming someone can up with the idea of a wrecked town, destroyed because of the on-going fights between humans and monsters since ages. so.... the concept was born and we had a little plan.
But where do we start? How do we start? This questions went on for hours till we thought its enough talking and we just get it started. 2 Peeps started exploring the map and found a good spot. They placed the first block and the project was started.
First it only was 4 houses and then we thought; every medieval town had a church, so we need one as well. oh wait they had taverns as well, watchtowers, farms, a mine with caves, a water mill, .... and of course a castle or at least a mansion with some dungeons... the list got longer and longer. But the motivation was high and so me and the others went on and on, one house done, next and next.... after 1 evening we leaned back and had a look at it and thought: damn this looks great, but it still looks way to tidily and ordinary.
Next day came and we went over all the buildings again, wrecked them way more, placed way more decoration and placed it all in a massive bedrock cube, to make sure its always dark... very dark. again we had a look at it and thought, damn now its exactly what we wanted it to be.... a totally wrecked town. The perfect place to fight against massive waves of enemies.
The others left the place and I started to place spawners, I did it alone, cause I wanted them to enjoy the feeling of surprises of monsters when they enter the war field the first time. To place the spawners I followed a little concept; a easy starting area where everyone can survive alone, then a challenging area for good equipped players or normal players in a team of 2 people. Then ultimate area for at least 4 playerso ¦ and I have to sayo ¦ I might overdid it a bit, because I realised I placed 140+ spawners, But hey, we all love the challenge, dono t we?
I got some peeps together and let them test it, first reaction was: o omg, are you crazy? There are way too many mobso Honestly? They was right, it was a massacre, everyone died over and over again, well they still had fun exploring even the last corner of the map, but it was definatly way to hard. So I removed some spawners and adjusted some others.. Then after a final test, it was nearly perfect. Mobs waiting behind nearly every corner, a very few spots to take a breath and refill the hunger bar.

if you want to play on it or just want to have a look on it, join our server and get there by using /warp exp.
be aware that our Server ist mostly german orientated, but dont hold back, nearly all of our team talk english and can help you get there or are available for questions.
