Hermitcraft 7: Episode 32 - MEGA GOLD FARM!

I really need to get my suit back I genuinely can't remember the last time I had my regular suit I my regular skin without any modifications whatsoever I think for the entire time that we've been on hermit crab season seven I would say that there has been maybe two potentially three episodes where I've just had my regular mumbo-jumbo skin it's actually reached the point now where it feels weird seeing me in my regular skin I barely recognize myself anyway in today's homemade craft episode we are starting things off near my new Pinklon trading area that I've constructed it's all looking a little bit rough and ready at the minute and we still have four empty slots so to get things started I think we should sort that I feel like there has to be a smarter way to do this and the one that I'm currently doing I mean I've got one extra in place but it is not easy it's we could be on to a winner with these guys though I think I've got a bit of a knack for this now so first off you have to get the cross by once because the golden sword ones they're just they're too gnarly at least for me alright and then you have to make sure that every single zombie pigman that you see you just block them up so that these guys can't see them and then they're happy to follow you anyway oh my goodness just out of pure luck there's also one in here but there's a guy who's just spawned in here alright hopefully he's gonna do this trade then hopefully he spots that piece of gold he's gonna spot it or am I gonna have to nudge him in [Music] okay yes there we go we've actually caught up with them in place alright let's get this one renamed and that one rename a scowl is great at the mumbo hello I love is scale fantastic I'm so glad I let him rename my name tags but after spending a ridiculous amount of time hunting for big lines all of them then dropped into place at once that is it's always very nice when that happens right this thing is now all completed it's up and working its operational so I guess you should probably make this place look a little bit better and I guess the first thing I'm not to do list is actually to clear out a little bit more space because I feel like having a nice tall room to work with here could end up looking pretty good now of course because this is very much a Minecraft 1.16 build I think it would be unfair for us to not make use of the new Minecraft 1.16 blocks my goodness the blackstone is just such a cool block might be my new favorite block in Minecraft it just it looks so good everywhere that you use it with that being said I would say there's one block that does look cooler which is the new lodestone I hadn't actually realized that that makes use of nether right now it's quite an expensive decorative block my goodness does it look good so I'm thinking when it comes to nether portal we do a slight relocation event hopefully moving it four blocks in this direction shouldn't affect the linking and things I mean I know this is pretty sensitive stuff but I imagine it should be okay because there's nothing really nearby to my villager trading area and I'm thinking we go right the way up to the roof with this nether portal and then that we can kind of build around it maybe not this high because then we have bedrock to deal with and things and that's a bit of a problem I think we can all agree that that looks pretty mean okay now I need to work out a way to not stand in the fires that I've lit and lit these fires so that I could have some light because it's getting kind of difficult to place these blocks but I need to think of some way to then extend this room upwards and I kind of don't know how I want to do it maybe build up a second tier because I would like to be able to actually see my pig Lynn's I feel like I have to mention this in every single video but I'm really not a builder okay this is not my comfort zone well I do really enjoy the process of watching a bill to come together and I'm liking how this is coming together we don't really have too much detail up at the top here but I like the height of the roof and I also just like this kind of the depth of the back step there yeah I mean I think this is looking quite nice can anyone let me know down in the comment section if there's a better way to get basalt than just doing it in these areas because they seem a little bit dangerous I would really prefer to do it anywhere else oh is that all basalt I mean that that seems like a good place to get it from so I've had a bit of a tough time with the roof originally I was going to go with the black stone stuff but it just looked a little bit too heavy a little bit too similar to what we've got going on down at the bottom so that didn't quite work out I tried a few different designs but I think in the end I'm actually going to go for cobblestone and stone slabs it looks nice and bright it doesn't feel too heavy to be up at the roof and yeah I just think it works quite nicely with the rest of the bill and I know I said earlier on that I'm not build about just a sound like one this build should now all be done all of the scaffolding has just been removed and that's not bad it's considerably cooler than it was at the start of today's episode so that's that's the most important thing I might put a few lights and things up there maybe a little bit of texture all right yeah give me a second I've been wanting an excuse to use the new solar lanterns so this this seems not the right time for it I mean this build is perfect and that is a million times better that has improved things massively this is a cool looking space we've got nice we've got a nice little zone here for our people in trading but the issue is is that currently we have no gold so obviously the people entrained in the way then their works is we throw them gold and then they throw out other stuff but yet we have no gold we have we have absolutely nothing so now we have to try and solve that problem now I could go mining you know now that the nether is generating gold you know you get the gold ore in the nether I mean you can actually get a decent amount of it within a fairly short space of time but that's no fun okay I mean that's that's not the way that we do things here instead we're going to build up some form of massive gold farm now obviously people have come up with all sorts of different designs on YouTube and that's fantastic I'm sure there's plenty of incredibly efficient ones that have been developed but I personally really like the idea of trying to design one for myself now it may not be the most efficient thing in the world I'm gonna say that straight away may not be the most efficient thing in the world while I enjoy learning the new mechanics and I enjoy experimenting with this sort stuff so welcome to my nether testing world we are currently way up above the nether because of course this is where we're going to be building the gold farm now I'm not going into this completely blind I do know a few bits about gold farms so number one it is that it needs to be in the nether wastes because that has a high likelihood of a spawning zombie pigman and number two is it needs to be constructed at least the spawning platforms out of magma blocks because those the only blocks the zombie pigmen can spawn on in the nether wastes oh and I know that we also have to be using looting if you want large numbers of drops or at least if we want to increase our number of drops so we're not going to have this currently afk the zombie pigmen aren't going to be killing themselves we are active going to be killing the zombie pigmen I also know about the turtle egg mechanic but I don't think we're going to be using that because I kind of want to keep things as simple as possible you know I want to toe the line between simplicity and efficiency I want something that's relatively easy to build whilst also being incredibly efficient and this design right here seems to be the winner now I spend a lot of time working on a bunch of different variations of this but then as hosts working on it I actually saw a video by Ray's works that was literally uploaded hours ago and he was showing off his bartering farm I'll put a link to it down in the description because it's a really really good video and he showed off this doughnut design and I thought it looked interesting and I downloaded the world and he seems to work really really nicely so then I've made some modifications to the central area I've gotten rid of the pathways and I just have total stone slabs so now these guys can path fine diagonally as well which seems to speed things up a little bit and I've also modified it so that we can use a looting sword so that we can maximize the number of drops that we get now I'm actually running confident mode which means that we can actually look at statistics for this farm so I'm going to run a quick test and run about ten minutes just again average I'll also Burling to the carpet mode down in the description because if you're testing farms it's just the most valuable tool ever oh well that might be a problem I guess we're gonna have to improve our magma cube defenses that never happen throughout all my testing so I'm glad that we found out about that because otherwise that would've been depressing on the actual hermit craft server but anyway this number is the important one we managed to average forty six thousand six hundred and nineteen items per hour as twenty-two thousand rotten flesh per hour which isn't brilliant but twenty two thousand golden nuggets per hour is pretty sweet one and a half thousand golden saws and also seven hundred and one golden Engels so the gold ingots can go straight into the pigment trading system the golden nuggets can be crafted into gold ingots and with twenty mm per hour that gives us two and a half thousand gold ingots per hour from the golden nuggets which means the in total with this farm we're gonna end up with around about three thousand two hundred gold ingots per hour which we can throw into that gold trading farm that's a decent amount in fact is exactly 50 stacks that's a very decent amount especially given this is actually quite a simple little farm I mean there's nothing too crazy going on there's a lot of magma blogs sure and you know there's a lot of blocks to place in general sort of but it's definitely not huge but this is totally manageable I feel very happy I feel very excited to build this thing but it's very late yeah I'm knackered I'm gonna go to bed I'll catch you tomorrow 1:00 sleep later I've popped onto the server this morning to do it a little bit the groundwork so we have an inventories full of Mangrum blocks as well as half ashoka books worth of the magma blocks i mean i'm hoping is that gonna be enough now that I look at it I'm not sure it's gonna be enough I guess we'll cross that bridge when it comes to it first things first we need to actually get ourselves onto the nether roof and I've managed to find this block right here this piece of bedrock is one piece of bedrock below the top of the nether it's at y equals 127 which means not only can we use this to get through to the top of the nether but also if we break this then we'll be able to just walk straight up using a ladder so I think we should try and do that now I must admit I don't think I've ever broken bedrock before my people have always just done it on the Hermit grav server there's always just been holes in the nether roof that have allowed me to get through I've never actually needed to build up a machine that does it so here is the piece of bedrock that I need to break and now we wait hmm I must admit this two taken longer than I expected four days later all right maybe there's a better way of doing things here now there is absolutely no guarantee that this is going to work first time but I think everything should be fully set up for this to function do I have armor on yes right spray me the right one well I didn't work let's try that again oh okay well we no no I mean there is a chance that this is patched like this totally could be patched honestly I don't know yes I think that might work that sounded bad sounded good that's it yes what no what Oh have I broken the rule block you have to be joking me this is the well obviously that's not ideal but I do think I have a bit of a knack for it now I just get fed up and activate shift spam yeah buddy look at that professional bedrock break sort of I mean you know that's there forever now oh and of course if you want to break bedrock yourselves I'll put a link to that tutorial down in the description once again is buy raise works people notice you should just subscribe to raise works he's a really good YouTube channel all to do with technical bits and pieces but I do now have a bit of a problem you see a lot of people want to build gold farms we're currently in another way since biome which means this is the perfect place for me to build a gold farm however I'm very near to a lot of people and also the void fog means that if I actually built a golf farm all the way up in the sky people probably wouldn't even know it was there so that means that there is a chance that someone else would build a golf farm near it and then destroy the rates of both of the two farms so I'm kind of not sure what to do I've been sat for about half an hour just scratching my head because I mean on the one hand I could just build it and let everyone know that it's there and that they shouldn't build gold farms here but that I could just go elsewhere I've decided to stop faffing about I've got about 400 blocks east I'm in another never wastes biome so this is where my gold farm is going to be constructed and for those of you in the scaffolding fan club which I know seems to have a lot of members down in my comment section every single time I don't use scaffolding I get called out for it I've decided I'm gonna stock up okay and I'm gonna make use of this Wanderers block I'm gonna see how it feels something tells me I've brought way too much of it but I feel like I definitely don't need this much scaffolding anyway we now have a tower going right the way up to the build limit so I guess this is where we just start chucking blocks in and getting the actual structure constructed wow that was difficult to say and that for now mainly involves just waiting waiting for smooth stone to be smelted yeah I mean this this furnace system is fast but I want a faster one we actually have some blocks placed after many hours of faffing about I'm actually starting work on this thing we've got a little stone slab platform at the top of our scaffolding tower here so this is where I'm going to be standing obviously I'm going to be surrounded by stone slabs and things I'm going to be sat in this spot and all of the zombie pigmen are going to be falling onto these honey blocks and other reason I'm using honey blocks is because they're not quite a full block so when I kill the zombie pigmen the items will actually land on the honey blocks but they'll be able to picked up by hoppers that are underneath Varni blocks well well well well definitely it should have spawn proof my platform because goodness gracious me I almost died that was close why spawned up there is that a pig limb man okay but when there's only three spawning spots available everything spawns all in one place my gold boots gracious me all of this area is now completely spawn proof so that I should prevent any of that sort of thing happening in the future because I seem to be completely inept at defending myself but now I'm actually filling in all of the half slabs that are going to be surrounding this central area here this is where all the zombie pigmen against you running across so essentially die they get they're gonna be running to their deaths basically but I mean the good news is I am gonna get lots of gold off the back of it so you know it's a bad thing that happens but it leads to good stuff for me not for the pigment it's very bad for the pigment but it's very very I've never done that before let's get the animated while I was talking I smashed the microphone into my mouth it kind of hurts a little bit it definitely feels like a broken game mechanic that I will be able to just hold shift and stop taking damage of these magma blocks but it's something that I really don't want them to change because it's useful but also they probably should change zombie pigmen a Stein to spawn this is a very very good sign I've got the outline of where the edge of the spawning zone is and I just have to fill in all of this space here with my stone slaps after having a few hairy moments with ghasts we are now all stone slammed up so this is now one solid structure this is what I was talking about this is why I was talking about and I have to be so careful because if I miss this gust and destroy a zombie pigman there's probably about 50 up on this platform right now one of them while my aim is getting worse and worse I've played this game for probably about nine years now and still I can't aim a bone arrow now I thought placing in all of the magma platforms and things would probably be better in the form of a third person time that was in a very glad that I did decide to do that because it was quite boring a repetitive task I also completely ran out of mangled blocks I had to go out and gather more of those and I found that the best way to do that is just a strip mine and then when you stumble across a little bit of magma just keep mining it because there's probably some huge vein connected to it and it's far faster than what I was doing previously which is just flying around in the nether looking for magma patches and then being destroyed by pig Lynn's and Pigman and everything like that it was just yeah that's that's difficult okay did the strip mining technique but I have to say you know with this nether stuff coming through all the Minecraft 1.16 stuff I'm really loving the update I think you're super interesting I'm enjoying looking into all the different farms that we have and obviously the new building styles that were able to do with the new blocks is also pretty awesome I'm also incredibly curious what they're going to do in the next Minecraft update and obviously I'm biased I kind of want some more redstone stuff I'd also like inventory upgrades I mean what sort of thing would you guys like to see let me know down in the comment section anyway let's pop back onto the hermit craft server and this thing right now is effectively a gigantic ghost spawner I mean it was a bit of a hellish time-lapse I'm sure you saw there were just ghosts spawning left and right you know it's it's difficult so I'm gonna have to add in some of the goths porting protection would you just die what I'm gonna have to add in some of the gas spawning protection I believe that it is just of slabs up at the top in just a couple of lines and that should prevent all of them from spawning which will be yet a very good day aside from that though look how many Pigman there are I mean this seems to be working exactly as it should we are so on the home straight now we are so on the home straight so it is literally just two strips of stone slabs I've done the first one we need a second ring than a few bits in these areas to stop them spawning and then it's just the details of like how we're going to pick up the items and things I mean this is my first gold farm I've wanted to build one of these for years they're all 2 by 2 corner pieces now all in place I think it's just cobblestone walls here and to be quite frankly honest I don't actually know what I need them for but they are now in place and all of my MA proofing is in place and I have this measly little storage system down at the bottom here it is absolutely nothing special whatsoever but for the time being it will do just so we can test this thing out and actually see if items are correctly flowing into this I guess I mean we're a final check stage and then I actually have to hit one of these things and get the ball rolling oh but there is one more thing that I do have to do and AH it requires a name tag unless I can throw an item that one of these guys will pick up maybe if I craft up a sword or something I don't know I've managed to give this guy a diamond sword he actually picked it up and he was already kind of standing on this platform here which is incredibly handy so if I just give him a slight nudge I really don't want to know the edges because I don't want to lose my sword but that should do the trick all right he looks incredibly fancy out there though I might actually do a few more of those guys just so I can help aid the spread of the aggro he's picked up straightaway we've gotten incredibly lucky with our pigment so far because not all picked with nasty pick up items I am incredibly terrified right now I have probably triple checked this thing about 14 times so 14 triple checks what that's nearly 50 checks right I think I think I'm good to go I mean I have to be wary of that guy because he could cause me some damage I mean oh let's just do it what is the worst that can happen okay they are falling into the great place seems like this might be working I mean I don't seem to be dead and that doesn't seem to be any zombie people going around the outside we're going to eat a much faster item pickup system though goodness gracious me there's a lot of weights on the floor [Music] already what no that can't be right there is this crazy bug going on and I've heard about this there's a zombie pigman who's picking up all the swords look at that so those sorts can never deform that's smashing all that's also a big problem well I think it's safe to say that this gold farm has been at an absolutely enormous success there's still a few bits pieces that we need to work on okay we need to build up a large-scale storage system because we're going to need tons of storage for this thing I mean 45,000 items are that's like a million items after 20 hours of AF came that's huge okay so we really need to work on that and also the item pickup systems and we need to create a way to get these items from here over to our pigment trading area there's all sorts of interest structure all sorts of infrastructure that needs to be done but not today because I'm pooped I hope you've enjoyed today's hammer craft episode it's for a ton of fun go catch in the next one see ya well I think we can all agree that was a blast wasn't it I mean we managed to make a wicked efficient well first off we managed to create a cool-looking room for the Pigman training hall then we managed to design or at least modify a gold farm so it looks sweet and works well and then we managed to build it all in one episode that's a solid that's a solid hermitcraft episode you best give that little like button a tickle
