Goal: Level 30 Enchantments.
If you can't find a dungeon, you build a dark room. This design is the Classic 1.7.10 EthosLab design.
Endermen give ~40% more XP than other mobs. And in 1.7.10, endermen spawn like crazy in the End.
Requirements:
Simple Enderman farm (1.7.10 style):
⚠️ 1.7.10 bug: Endermen don't take fall damage if they teleport right before landing. Solution: Use water at the bottom to slow them, then kill manually. minecraft 1.7.10 xp farm
Before placing a single block, you must understand what doesn't work in 1.7.10 compared to modern versions:
With that in mind, let’s build.
Step 1: The Bridge Build out 150 blocks from the main End island towards the void. Endermen stop spawning after 128 blocks, so this ensures only your farm spawns them.
Step 2: The Spawning Platform Build a 32x32 platform of solid blocks (End Stone) at Y=64.
Step 3: The Trap (44 Block Drop) In the center of the 32x32 platform, dig a 2x2 hole. Drop down 44 blocks (This brings Endermen to 1 heart). At the bottom, put a 2x2 room with a 1 block high entrance (so you can hit their legs). Goal: Level 30 Enchantments
Step 4: The Pusher (The "Carpet Mod" trick) Place a piston circuit on the 32x32 platform that pushes a block every 5 seconds to knock Endermen into the hole. Alternatively: Build a water stream (but Endermen teleport from water, so use Pistons or a moving floor).
Step 5: The Endermite? (Don't bother) In 1.7.10, Endermites are glitchy. Do not use them. Just rely on line-of-sight.
Result: You can kill roughly 2,000 Endermen per hour. 5,000+ XP per minute. You will go from level 0 to level 30 in under 45 seconds.
The absolute best way to get level 30 enchants in 1.7.10 is the Enderman Farm.
In modern Minecraft, you build these on the roof of the Nether. In 1.7.10, you build them in The End, 128 blocks away from the main island. Simple Enderman farm (1
The End island. Build 128 blocks out from the main island over the void.
For Minecraft 1.7.10, the most practical and resource-efficient XP farm is:
Avoid: Cave spider farms, zombie flesh farms (too much garbage), surface dark rooms (too slow due to cap).
1.7.10 spawning is less strict than 1.18+. Mobs can spawn on any solid block with light level 7 or less. No need for “light level 0”.
Build (Y=200+ recommended):
XP trick: Use a piston crusher at the bottom instead of fall damage. Why? Fall damage kills them instantly – no XP. Crusher lets you punch them once.
