Here are several designs you might find useful, two that rely on mob spawners, and two that do not.

Wanderer posted a message on "Too expensive"?Posted in: Recent Updates and SnapshotsQuote from SpaceRaider
I think its pretty unfair* tbh even though i get the reasons for making this limit. As it is hard enough to keep items as it is as if you mess up just a tiny bit you can loose everything in ur inven (Especially if you bug out and get stuck in a block when lava is flowing towards you), you should be able to keep your good tools and armour repaired and on you to help you throughout the game, especially if your willing to put in the time and effort AND mats required for anvils etc to do it. Either that or there should be a clearer indication of what your tool/armours base value is and how it will be effected by certain repairs and enchants so you don't accidentally go over the limit, making your tool or armour wasted cos it will eventually break when you've put the time into repairing it, especially considering just how random the enchanting system is in the first place. I think it would just be better if the repair costs were higher or the more enchants on an item the higher it would be because then even with, lets say an enderman farm (which are really nice but the xp gain seems to slow down when you exceed levels 30/40 which is pointless being as theres nothing which requires that much xp at once) it wouldn't be so easy to be op.
Welcome to the forums, new poster! Might I suggest that moving forward, you refrain from posting on topics that haven't been posted on in over three months? See the thing is that now this topic's not really appropriate to have on the front page of "Recent updates and snapshots" because the content is no longer really "recent". It would be better to create your own topic in a more appropriate forum, perhaps? -

Glett posted a message on Boss Mob in the Nether [with concept art]The main issue I have here is the roar. 2 miles is about 3200 blocks in Minecraft scale, meaning that you would almost constantly be hearing one despite the rarity. While this may add some atmosphere, I could see it getting quite annoying.Posted in: Suggestions -

seattlephog posted a message on Gleece's Quest for the King - Underwater addition...Here is the latest from my build. Yes I finally have a name for my adventure - named after my best friend whom I am making this map for. This weeks view is of a new underwater addition I added.Posted in: Creative Mode
This shows the start of my addition. A tunnel leading to the mainland to what I thought would be a lighthouse. I have since decided against a lighthouse and will be going in a different direction.
I started the long process of digging out what would be a large room.
Added the sea wall here and started putting in the glass.
Glass is in. Time to start on the ceiling and light fixtures.
Here are a couple overhead shots of my lights. They are all wired to a single (light) switch inside big room.
Grass roof added over redstone lamps.
Here is the inside. I have a few lights installed here and my floor was not yet finalized.
Decided to go with redstone lamps for the floor. Lights are installed and working nicely. The lights turn on in order going down the far hallway. You can see the lights continue to turn on through the glass. The room is still bare. I haven't figured out what else to put here yet.
This view shows down the unfinished corridor and the sidewall library.
Sidewall libary with light switch by the stairs. Note: lights are off here.
Lights are off. Time to go. -

Iron Plaque:
Gold Plaque:
Diamond Plaque:
I mean, why not? My gravestones look ridiculous with signs on them and a plaque could add a very commemorative feeling to sign placing that wooden ones could never achieve.
Not sure if the pictures are really necessary but there you have it, folks. -

1. What is Skyblock?
If you haven't heard of skyblock, fear not. Skyblock is a special type of challenge map where you spawn on a small, floating island in the middle of the void. Resources are limited, and luxuries you have previously had on a regular survival map might seem dangerously void. I bet you never had said, " I wish I had more dirt," before! Of course you can download the map or play on one of several servers, but here is a creative and fun way of making your own!
2. Superflat.
You will need to make the world in creative mode, and have cheats enabled. You will need to select a superflat world, and click on presets. At the top of the screen you will see a bar that has random numbers and letters. We don't want those, so delete them. Put in this code : " 1;12;1 " . This preset code simply makes it so only 1 layer of sand is generated on the map. What does this mean? Void, baby, void. Place a block upon the sand and it will proceed to fall. All of it. Now all that remains is you, the void, and the block you placed. Stack the block up and choose what y coordinate you want your island to be on. You do NOT want it to be too low, nor too high; shoot for the middle. I always go for y:100.
3. Spawn.
Perhaps you're thinking, "But if I die, I'll spawn in the void?" Not exactly. Remember how cheats were enabled? We'll be using a command that sets an exact spawn for you to land on whenever you die. The command is : /spawnpoint [YOUR IN GAME NAME] : And it SHOULD set your spawn to were you are standing. If you are having troubles, put in the coordinates after your name. Many people place a block of bedrock so their spawn is always reliabley there.
4. Creating the island.
Now you create your island. You can make your island to your liking, but it is generally made with less than a stack of grass, has one oak tree, and a chest with materials that will help along the way. Size the island to your likings. I wouldn't make it too big, as it would ruin a bit of the challenge, but feel free to limit it to produce more of a challenge. Again, 'tis your choice.The chest materials should DEFINITLEY include : 2 block of ice, and a bucket of lava. It would also be ideal to include : 1 catcus block, 1 sugarcane, 1 of each mushroom, 1 bone, 1 melon seed, 1 pumpkin seed. That way you can easily obtain these otherwise unobtainable blocks and reproduce them. Some people also make additional [smaller] islands far away from the initial island that has other things, such as obsidian for venturing to the nether.
5. Begginer tips.
If you know nothing about skyblock, or are new to skyblock in general, here are a few tips to get you started (survival wise). First off, punch that tree and harvest as many saplings as you can get from it. Take the ice and lava and make a cobble generator. (If you don't know what that is, look it up on youtube. Perhaps in the future I shall post pics.) From there, farm a buch of cobblestone and expand your island.
6. Conclusion
Well... That concludes this tutorial. For now. I can easily add more things that I may have forgotten or that someone feels is worth mentioning. I also might add pictures if I figure out how to. Please, post feedback such as questions, comments, suggestions, complaints... I hope you enjoyed this tutorial, and I hope you enjoy the skyblock experience.
Farewell!
