Easy Early Game Slime Farm Tutorial

Overview

• How to create a simple slime farm in Minecraft Java Edition.
• Ideal for early game resource gathering.
• Utilizes a swamp biome for slime spawning.

Key Requirements

• Biome: Swamp biome.
• Height: Slimes spawn between heights 50 and 70.
• Moon Phase: Most effective during a full moon, no spawn during new moon.
• Java Edition: Requires Java Edition for certain functions.

Setup Instructions

Chunk Setup

• Use F3 + G to see chunk borders.
• Build farm on 4 chunks.
• Mark chunk corners with blocks.

Building the Farm

1. Height Construction:

   • Go 5 blocks above water.
   • Use any full blocks (e.g., dirt or grass) for construction.
   • Connect the grass along the sides.

2. Chunk Gap:

   • Stand on the grass and leave a 4-block gap within chunk borders.
   • Repeat on all four sides.
   • Connect grass or dirt in the middle.

3. Spawning Platforms:

   • Create spawning platforms inside big squares.
   • Build a 2-tall wall around platforms.
   • Use slabs or glass blocks on top of walls to prevent mob spawning.
   • Avoid light sources to keep light levels low in swamp biome.

4. Water Flow System:

   • Create a water flow system to direct slimes to the killing area.
   • Build side walls to guide slimes.
   • Use buckets of water to push slimes toward magma blocks.

5. Magma Blocks:

   • Place magma blocks to expedite slime killing.
   • Helps in breaking larger slimes into smaller ones.

6. Collection System:

   • Use fences to direct items to collection area.
   • Place chests and hoppers to collect slime balls.
   • Ensure hoppers connect to chests by crouching.

7. AFK Spot Construction:

   • Build an AFK spot 127 blocks above the farm.
   • Use scaffolding or building blocks with ladders to reach AFK spot.
   • Center the AFK spot exactly above the farm.
   • Build a safe room with a roof and lighting.

Expected Outcome

• Approximately 1.5 stacks of slime balls per night.
• Additional mob drops possible due to lack of light.

Conclusion

• Effective for collecting slime balls in early game.
