Hello everyone. I recently found a skeleton spawner and I wanted a way to build something that kills them as they spawn and moves the mob drops to a spot where I wouldn't have to fight them so that I will be able to have a huge surplus of bones and arrows. Does anyone know what is generally the most effective but least complicated to make trap for this?
Make a room 4 blocks from each side of the spawn, roof and floor should be 2 away. Flood the room from the back corners, then dig right where the water stops (in a V formation). This will flood the room with only 2 buckets and the current will go towards the front. At the front center of the room, dig a 1 wide tunnel 1 block deeper that will flush everything down the tunnel. The tunnel should be at least 3 blocks long before reaching a "lava blade" (lava source 3 blocks away, with last bit of lava resting on a sign or ladder). Leave a one block gap under the lava for the water to push all your drops out of the trap while forcing the mobs to jump into the lava blade.
Remember you need to be within 17 blocks of the spawner to activate it.
There are way more complicated traps, but this is a common basic setup that gives quick results.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
A tutorial would be nice, but not necessary.
Thanks so much in advance!
