Raid Farm Minecraft Bedrock 1.21 Tutorial! (MCPE/Xbox/PS4/Nintendo Switch/Windows10)

Introduction

This tutorial will guide you through building an efficient raid farm in Minecraft Bedrock 1.21. This farm will help you gather valuable resources, including emeralds and totems of undying, enhancing your gameplay experience. Whether you're playing on MCPE, Xbox, PS4, Nintendo Switch, or Windows 10, this step-by-step guide will ensure you can maximize your loot effortlessly.

Step 1: Gather Necessary Materials

Before starting your raid farm, collect the following materials:

• Building Blocks (any type)
• Trapdoors (wooden or iron)
• Signs
• Water Buckets
• Beds (2)
• Villagers (2)
• Name Tags (optional, to prevent despawning)
• Looting Weapons (for effective raids)

Tips

• Make sure to gather more materials than you think you’ll need to avoid multiple trips.
• Consider using a map to locate nearby villages and gather villagers.

Step 2: Choose a Location

Select a suitable location for your raid farm. Look for a flat area near a village or a plains biome. Ensure it's far enough from any other villages to prevent interference during raids.

Practical Advice

• Avoid building too close to your main base to keep it out of the way while you farm.
• Consider building on elevated ground to have a better vantage point.

Step 3: Construct the Farm Structure

1. Build the Base

   • Create a 9x9 square platform using your building blocks.
   • Leave a 3-block gap in the center of the platform for the raid spawning area.

2. Set Up the Villager Area

   • Place beds in the corners of the platform.
   • Surround the beds with trapdoors to prevent villagers from wandering off.

3. Create the Raid Spawn Area

   • Use signs to mark the edges of the 3-block gap.
   • Fill the gap with water to push hostile mobs toward a designated area.

Common Pitfalls

• Ensure the villagers can reach their beds to activate the raid mechanic.
• Make sure the water flow is directed towards a collection point.

Step 4: Activate the Raid Mechanic

1. Transport Villagers

   • Use boats or minecarts to bring villagers to the farm if they are not already nearby.
   • Name tag the villagers if you want to prevent them from despawning.

2. Create a Pillager Outpost

   • Locate a nearby pillager outpost and defeat the pillagers to gain the Bad Omen effect.
   • Return to your farm to trigger the raid.

Tips

• You can carry out this step with a friend to make it easier.
• Ensure you are well-equipped for the battle to manage the raid effectively.

Step 5: Collect Loot

• As the raid progresses, defeat the waves of enemies that spawn.
• Collect emeralds and totems of undying as they drop from defeated raid mobs.

Practical Advice

• Create a collection system at the end of the water flow to easily gather items.
• Stay vigilant against evokers, as they drop totems of undying.

Conclusion

By following these steps, you can set up an efficient raid farm in Minecraft Bedrock 1.21. This farm not only provides you with essential resources but also enhances your overall gameplay experience. As a next step, consider expanding your farm or adding automated systems to further increase efficiency. Happy farming!
