"sans-serif">Hi, as the title says I am trying to make a mob grinder/xp farm in my survival game. The problems I am having are the skeletons fight each other to death in mob elevator and they spawn so slow its painful… like 3 every so often. I’ve watched a YouTube on how to build one and every thing works for them but not for me.. here’s a link of the one I’m trying to follow (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8blg0dH-PE) any ideas? Any help would be much appreciated, cheers.
Also make sure the kill chamber where you let them build up is more than 9 blocks from the spawner. If its closer than that the spawner will slow way down or not spawn them at all.

This one is kinda important, the spawner has a 17x9x17 (x,y,z) area with the spawner at the center in which it counts the mobs around it, if you get to six mobs the spawner stops spawning more. So you have to get them at least 5 blocks vertically or 9 blocks horizontally away from the spawner as quickly as possible so that it will keep producing more mobs.

They can SEE you or this would not be happening, they are not supposed to be able to see you at all.
